I've had all my toes on my left foot amputated due to a bone infection. I have been doing wall pilates and chair yoga and find it to be awesome giving me new hope, a new life.

Welcome back to new and returning mates, your goals and achievements are so inspiring.
After a week I’m still walk/jogging outside 40 minutes. Averaging 10K steps daily with my rebounding and house work.
Best wishes for your week

I am a 5'3" retiree and started tracking again with MFP in January 2022.
My final goal weight is 145.

I was able to bring my average daily calories down this week with good results and without being overly hungry. Going to try to stay at around that same daily average for the coming week and see what happens.
Have a great week!7 -
7 mile walk done today, with a stop at a pub for Sunday lunch, not too many calories as there were lots of vegetables, not too many potatoes. Plus a diet coke and 1 glass of wine.
That'll be the main meal of the day, just a snack this evening, and weigh in tomorrow morning6 -
No Weigh IN for me.
I’m giving myself a grace period for the Super Bowl weekend and Valentine decoration parties.
It's been a high-sodium, overindulging 2 days plus today 🏈
Here's Friday's party for my gym girlfriends
Then yesterday I had 5 friends for the second party
I'm in the back middle
And here's one trail in the canyon I walk most days
Best wishes to ALL,
Karen

We're expecting a snowstorm in Boston late Monday night and all though Tuesday. They're not sure how much yet but it's supposed to be the biggest one so far this winter.
Best wishes for the week ahead!

Here we go. Starting weight 205 (had a fun time in NYC though). Shooting for that 15 lb loss. Wouldn't be upset about more. I'll check in on Mondays.
02/05: 205. Let's get it!
02/12: 201. A fair bit of that was just not having all the vacation food in my guts. And losing all that salt related water weight.7 -

My name is Donna. I am 63 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5’ 5” tall.
CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM Jan 31): 181.6
CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 12 pounds to land at 169.6
CHALLENGE ACTUAL ENDING WEIGHT:
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s
Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.
02/01-183.4-(Trend Weight: 183.0)-
02/06-183.0-(Trend Weight: 183.2)- It’s been a tough week. I’d like to say it had many highs and lows but truthfully, it was mostly highs, especially on the scale. A nice little whoosh this morning landed me down from the last weigh-in. I’ve got to get serious again. My health is nothing to play with. Today is a very good start.
02/13-182.0-(Trend Weight: 181.5)- Big jump on the scale after travel yesterday. I had a very good week so my weight was actually down by several pounds more until the travel day. Hopefully much of this is water weight. Great news at the endocrinologists office yesterday! My A1C diabetic testing showed such an improvement that he is releasing my diabetes care back to my family doctor! He says his job is to fix things and then send me back so that is what he is doing. So I feel so “fixed”!!!! All the changes are really making a difference. Getting some of the pounds off has really contributed too. I plan on keeping my diabetes at the forefront of my journey! He was extremely happy with my cholesterol (medication must be working) and he was not at all concerned with my kidney function that I was so worried about (the eGFR test) because my urine protein test looks very good. I am so relieved. I know I have a lot of health issues (so many more than what I’ve just mentioned) but it is such a relief to hear that I’m on the right track with changes I’ve been making in my lifestyle.

Hello all, I am 54 and gained 10 lbs in 6 months. I started a challenge during the pandemic and lost 12 lbs. I felt great. I need so much support now. I've tried to lose weight on my own without success. It would be great to lose 10- 15 lbs. My main issue is sugar and nuts. I am better controlling the nuts. It is so difficult with the sugar.
I currently have the flu and feeling terrible, however, my husband gave me chocolates for valentines and ate them all. Not even the flu can stopped me from eating sugar.
