Starting Over Again
I am starting over again on my weight loss/healthier lifestyle. Since entering my 40s I have definitely noticed a difference in how hard it is to lose weight and maintain.

What are you doing for your exercise?
Okay, I want this board to be a success--I need some support! Therefore, if I don't see many new posts, I'll start making some up to get us talking! My plan for exercise is walking on the treadmill at a crazy early hour of the morning (before others are up). Too cold to walk outside, and I'd literally have to drive…

As for me, I did two goof ups today. The first was my brand new treadmill wouldn't work this morning--I work out before everyone is…

Jan 2nd - Back to Reality (A Small Challenge)
So it's January 2nd and it's time to get back to reality after a couple weeks of school being out, parties and family gatherings and a general disregard for normal eating. I am setting 3 small goals for me today: 1. Logging my food on MFP. 2. Play outside in the snow with my girls. They have been asking to build a snowman…
