Here I go again (better late starting the month than never).
Hi, I'm Deb from Illinois. I'm 62, 5'5", married with 2 kids and 1 grand-angel/princess/apple of grandma's eye. I work full-time at a desk job but have the ability to get up and walk when the mood strikes.
My goals:
Weigh daily and report - starting weight 3/11/2025 - 176 lbs
Log in close to 1200 calories daily
Log steps daily
Drink more water(who am I kidding - I'm not going to drink straight water). Drink more! Non-calorie drinks that is.Post here daily!
Simple right? Stay tuned . . .
Thank you to all who take part in these challenges and post your thoughts, goals, challenges, successes, etc. I've found that reading these posts help keep me motivated, inspired and accountable.

3/9: 152.6
3/11: 152.2Still a drop. Feel so bloated today. I had a half day yesterday so did 30 minutes of yoga, 4.5 miles (90 minute) walk with the dogs, another 60 minute walk with coworkers, 30 minutes under desk peddling, and then 20 minutes of running bases for tball practice. Today I managed a 60 minute walk with coworkers and thatβs it. Work had me super stressed and angry today so no peddling and I feel like bumming around so I am. Just trying to not say f it to the diet and all of it so chugging water and distancing myself from the fridge. Staying under calories still.

@Tbris4 mostly itβs just lower calories. But higher protein intake I guess. Having no income often means nutrition suffers - pasta is a staple in my diet due to little money. I wish I had money to go back to my vegetarian fling - made so many delicious and nutritious meals.
Still here. Trying to stick to my goals. The rain is finally clearing up so it looks like taking the dog for a walk might actually happen this week.

Morning all! On my way home. Nice to see family, but will be even better to be home with my routine. Clearly I am still a work in progress when I am with a big group.
Party was a huge success. He was totally surprised and had a wonderful day. He is an amazing man, paratrooper at Normandy, Bronze Star, Purple heart. Wants to live to 108, to be the longest living WW2 veteran. Still goes to the shooting range once a week and gets a bulls eye 90 percent or more of the time. Here he is with my Aunt and Uncle who hosted the party.
I don't have access to a scale for the weigh in this week. Probably a good thing. π I'll weigh in on Friday instead.
We decided not to buy at this time. It's a little busier than I would like. Greg would still like to be there, but I have convinced him that a monthly rental in the winter would still be a better option for now.
Monty gave us a scare, had a seizure on the way there. He snapped out of it ok, but have an appointment with Vet for when we get home. Apparently it is pretty common with "poodles". Hoping we can control with diet, and we won't need to put him on meds. Probably brought on by the stress of the traveling.
Will check in later today with my stats for the lasts couple days.

3/12 - Weighed in at 186.2 this morning. Steadily making progress. Always takes time for me to pick up a little momentum the first couple days but weβre getting there. Was hoping to be able to wake up a little earlier this morning and check in with everyone here but felt like I needed a little more sleep, oh well. Iβll take whatever baby steps I can get.

Hi All,
I'm back for another month.
I'm a 47 year old, 5' 2", busy mom of 5. I lost 40 pounds and then flirted with my goal weight for almost a year. The scale was going steadily up for several months, so I'm bringing it back down. I'd love to get to my goal weight of 120-123 in the next couple months and then *maintain* it.

@iLive2Walk wow! He looks great! My grandfather on my dad's side lived to be 101. My great-grandfather died the day before his 104. Dad always said he wouldn't live to be 100. He didn't. He died last year after just turning 78

03/12 β 193.6 (Trend Weight β 195.9) πππ I made an amateur mistake yesterday. Due to a few hours of obligations & errands I did not eat my first meal, lunch, until 5:00 p.m. Dinner is usually around 7:30 or 8:00 but I wasnβt yet hungry. So I thought, βWow, I can probably just skip dinner then and maybe have a better scale reading tomorrow." I had pre-logged in the morning so when I got hungry around 10:30 or 11:00 I went straight to my snacks because that is usually when I eat them. (I stay up very late). I ended up overeating snacks going above & beyond what I had pre-logged because I was starving by then. Why, oh why did I not just eat my dinner instead even though it was later than normal? Am I not adaptable to changed situations? Or am I THAT addicted to my snack foods which serve as treats to me? The dinner food would have been more fulfilling and healthier! In retrospect, I think I should have grabbed a snack in the afternoon while running (almonds or such) and skipped it last night choosing my dinner instead. Iβm glad to see a 1 lb drop today on the scale, but this is NOT the way to do it. I must admit, all those snacks were not within plan or healthy. I remained under calories due to missing the meal but Iβm sure the carbs were WAY over. Lesson learned.

Hi, I'm Darlene and am back for another month. I am working my way through the maintenance phase of my journey. I weigh weekly, and record my accomplishments daily. I started this journey in January 2023 and lost 90 pounds. I reached my goal weight in October 2024, went back over my goal in November and then back to my December and have maintained for January and February. This was the first group that joined on MFP and holds a special place in my heart.

3/13: 151.6Still trucking! Still feeling bloated. According to calendar TOM is 3-4 days away so just need to stay the course during that as I know I will see minimal scale movement and then it will drop off. As long as I stay within calories I can mentally fight the scale. Also my son decided to share a cold so thatβs fun. We are having a build your own potato bar at work so I plan on meat and veggies only and avoiding the potato or maybe only half a potato. Def avoiding the cheeses and butters. No walking with coworkers today though bc of lunch. So I will have to get some under the desk peddling in.

Hi All,
I'm back for another month.
I'm a 47 year old, 5' 2", busy mom of 5. I lost 40 pounds and then flirted with my goal weight for almost a year. The scale was going steadily up for several months, so I'm bringing it back down. I'd love to get to my goal weight of 120-123 in the next couple months and then *maintain* it.

My name is Donna. I am 5β 5β tall, 64 years old and from Michigan USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.
Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

03/12 β 193.6 (Trend Weight β 195.9) Β I made an amateur mistake yesterday. Due to a few hours of obligations & errands I did not eat my first meal, lunch, until 5:00 p.m. Dinner is usually around 7:30 or 8:00 but I wasnβt yet hungry. So I thought, βWow, I can probably just skip dinner then and maybe have a better scale reading tomorrow." I had pre-logged in the morning so when I got hungry around 10:30 or 11:00 I went straight to my snacks because that is usually when I eat them. (I stay up very late). I ended up overeating snacks going above & beyond what I had pre-logged because I was starving by then. Why, oh why did I not just eat my dinner instead even though it was later than normal? Am I not adaptable to changed situations? Or am I THAT addicted to my snack foods which serve as treats to me? The dinner food would have been more fulfilling and healthier! In retrospect, I think I should have grabbed a snack in the afternoon while running (almonds or such) and skipped it last night choosing my dinner instead. Iβm glad to see a 1 lb drop today on the scale, but this is NOT the way to do it. I must admit, all those snacks were not within plan or healthy. I remained under calories due to missing the meal but Iβm sure the carbs were WAY over. Lesson learned.
πππ 03/13 β 193.8 (Trend Weight β 195.7) Just a normal fluctuation today. Yesterday was a good day with everything in place. Going for another one today. I got a new computer installed yesterday along with new monitor and extras. Suddenly much of my information from the past week was missing from my word documents I use for MFP. Frustrating that it had to happen during the new MFP formatting on top of it all. Iβm chasing down my numbers by reading backwards on my previous posts for the past 7 days. Ugh! I do want to keep a record of the numbers! We are experiencing unseasonable temps in my neck of the woods lately. Perhaps spring is really just around the corner. We usually get our last fleeting snow in May every year. The weather really lifts the spirits!

It's been a good week so far. Have been able to get a lot of healthy habits started and have been able to get some payoff for the hard work. Just trying to remain patient and keep it up one day at a time!

Hi, I'm Darlene and am back for another month. I am working my way through the maintenance phase of my journey. I weigh weekly, and record my accomplishments daily. I started this journey in January 2023 and lost 90 pounds. I reached my goal weight in October 2024, went back over my goal in November and then back to my December and have maintained for January and February. This was the first group that joined on MFP and holds a special place in my heart.

Was nice to see some family that I haven't seen in a while, but am glad to be home. It was too much driving for just three days in Florida. No more distractions for March!
Monty has a vet appointment on Monday, he was fine the rest of the trip. I am sure that they will want to do a bunch of tests. I hear that Epilepsy is very common with Poodle type dogs - but am sure that they will run a bunch of tests to rule out anything else.
We took Monty's favorite place to go for a walk when we got home. He loved it! It was nice for him to be able to be off the leash for his walk.
We decided not to buy down there for now. It's just way too busy for me. Greg would still like to do it, but I've convinced him that renting for a month is the better option for now.
Now that I am home, trying to figure out this new MFP format! Not sure I am liking it at all!
One trick that someone on my BLC challenge posted was for single spacing - Hold the Shift Key and press enter to get to the next line. It works!
I have to copy and paste my previous post instead of quoting - is that how everyone else is doing it? I did figure out yesterday that you have to open your spoilers before you copy to bring that information along.
I hate that there isn't a preview button!
Going to just catch up going forward - too hard to go back and read everything - but since @ozdeelitepicture was just before mine wanted to say beautiful place to go for a walk!

March 13: met calorie and water goal, but slightly low on protein. I was able to get in a walk after work so I reached 5,399 steps. My daughter will be coming home from college today for spring break. So excited to see her. Weather here is supposed to be in the low 70βs which is a record around here!! May end my work day early so I can get out and enjoy!
@ozdeelite what a beautiful walking path, so nice and sunny! βοΈ@iLive2Walk my in-laws dog had a couple seizures also. They put him on a medication and knock on wood heβs been fine since. Fingers crossed itβs nothing too serious. As for the MFP itβs been a little wonky, but I usually use my phone. I do copy and paste though and Iβm finding the β@β donβt always activate the names. Iβm not sure why π€·ββοΈ
There are many others in this group making slow steady progress! Keep up the good work everyone!! π
