I am Gwyneth, age 53, height 5'4'', SW 192, CW 187, GW 160ish. High school teacher, theater person, mom to two grownups and two cats, Mainer.
My long-term goals are to
→slim down to my happy weight (I don't much care about BMI or what I'm "supposed" to weigh)
→get stronger and more flexible through bodyweight exercise and mobility work
→be fit enough to hike Tumbledown with my son this summer
My January goals are to
→eat zero refined sugar this month (!)
→8,000 steps a day
→get my GERD under control
Thanks for allowing me to join Downsizers!
Welcome to the team, Gwyneth, we are glad you joined us on our journey. I like your goals. I always felt that the “secret” to success is to set goals for yourself and to have a plan to reach those goals. You know the old saying, “…not having a plan to succeed is akin to having a plan to fail…”. I wish you well on your plan, we can talk, if you would like, as the month goes on.
I can see you and your son hiking Tumbledown right now!

Would you rather climb a mountain that changes location every day? Or swim in a lake that turns into jelly at night?

Hello!
I've been dreading this weigh-in because my diet has been way off while I've been getting back into exercise, which is why I've been avoiding the scale.

Username: JSScottJr1988
Weigh in day: Thursday
Pw: 200lbs
Cw: 202lbs
Hey team I'm Scott. Sorry for the late introduction been getting my personal life in order. I love exercising its my main discipline in life. I'm in good shape but I want to size down to 180lbs and need the motivation. I exercise 3-5 days a week and consider myself sweat equity. All That really means is I have bad eating habits plus I'm an endomorph so I store fat in my stomach. I'm 36 years old. I work at 711 and am going back to school this semester. I just released a contemporary autobiography on Amazon called "Be Cool With All That Jazz" inspired by my dad who has dementia though we still have regular conversations. I was a member of fat2fit years ago when I blew up to 240lbs and am excited it's still around Looking forward to the journey and group. Once again sorry for late Weigh in. I wish everyone health, peace, and prosperity4 -

What's the most embarrassing thing to happen to you in public?
I wasn't paying attention and I went into the Men's bathroom and every guy in there was staring at me
