LW: 128.6 TW: 128.2 Well, I'm lucky again this week and hit the low end of the arc on weigh-in day. I am surprised. We have both been busy and stressed, so hubby decided that he just wanted pizza last night, and that usually results in a temporary 2-pound gain. But apparently the type we had last night was not as high in…

Feb 7 - Feb 13
LW: 134.6 TW: 134.8 Well, my trainer has been out of town, she'll be back tomorrow. I've had 3 doctor appointments, and no time to focus on much. The cold I had seems to have gone into my left ear, so the doctor and an ENT, and a round of antibiotics (ugh). And then yesterday, I had my eye exam. Everything is good, the…

Jan 31-Feb 6, 2024
LW: 128.8 TW: 128.4 Hi, all. I was so glad to type February! January feels like it has been far longer than 31 days. Here's a little info on what has been going on in this difficult month. First, I still have not heard anything from the mammogram I had last Wednesday. They said 7 to 10 days, but I really think that if they…

Jan 24 - Jan 30
LW: 134.0 TW: 134.6 Ugh. I'm going in the wrong direction on the scale! I had 2 heavy weights workouts, so I'm hoping it's water in the muscle. I'm having a really busy day because my Oregon daughter and one of her girls is flying in tonight for a visit until Monday. Mostly to see and hold the new baby, but also we plan to…

LW: 128.2 TW: 128.0 Okay. That's not so bad. I was once again lucky enough to have the low end of the arc hit on weigh-in day. There's not much of an update to give on the plumbing/sewer crisis. The plumbers came out again last Friday bringing a different/better camera so they could better image the pipes that have…

Jan 10 - Jan 16
LW: 133.6 TW: 134.2 Well, the weight gain continues. I haven't had my trainer for a while now since she was sick and then I came down with a cold also . . negative for Covid. I have been able to walk on the treadmill, but very slowly. Sarah, I'm so sorry about the awful and irritating plumbing issues! You and hubby have…

Jan 3-Jan 9, 2024
LW: 129.8 TW: 129.0 Happy New Year, everyone. I'm just quickly putting in my stats. I noticed that the last thread I started does not show up when I look at the top of the page for latest entries. Don't know what is up with that. Hope this one will show. Noticed that I'm the only one who has been on MFP for a number of…

Dec 27, 2023-Jan 2, 2024
LW: 127.4 TW: 129.8 (The weight for this week is today's weight. I wanted to use the same scale, so didn't weigh on Wednesday.) Arghhh. But I guess I have to be happy because last week I said I'd be happy if I got back here weighing even an ounce under 130. :p And that's pretty much what happened. These trips really take a…

Dec 20 - Dec 26
LW: 131.2 TW: 132.4 Well, there's been a good amount of eating out these days. Also, baking and my activity has been hit and miss. I had my trainer Monday, and won't have her again until January . . she's in Mexico for Christmas, lucky girl! I don't expect much "dieting" to happen over the next week or so, but I'll get…

Dec 13 - Dec 19
Last Time: 133.4 TW: 131.2 Well, I didn't expect my weight to drop that much, but I guess stress and chasing a 2 year old may have contributed. Sarah, you've had a few health issues come up, but you're overall so healthy that I'm sure you'll do fine. The "rib" is the scariest thing, so please get that checked out as soon…

December 6-12, 2023
LW: 127.6 TW: 127.6 I suspect that today's weight looks a little low because I was "nothing by mouth" from midnight on because of my annual physical this morning and all the blood tests. I suspect it bounced up a bit once I got some food and fluid in me. Sheesh, I've been thinking about you and sending you, your daughter…

November 29 - December 5
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.4 Did I just type December?! It's hard to believe it's the last month of the year. It flew by for me. My daughter is still hanging in there and keeping baby girl baking in the oven for a few more days. She had another day of pretty strong contractions, but laid down immediately. Luckily she had a nanny…

November 22-28, 2023
LW: 127.6 TW: 128.4 I am not surprised. That low weight last week was the surprise and it lasted for only a day. I think I must have been dehydrated. But I'm okay with where I am given the trip and some days when walking outside was not possible. I just don't burn as many calories on the TM as I do when I'm pulling those…

November 15 - November 21
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.8 Lordy, up from our trip . . . Pasta dinners out, etc. Oh well, we had a great time! Granddaughter's high school play was "Little Shop of Horrors" and it was absolutely fantastic! We've seen the Broadway production of it, and this was just as good! I was stunned. Live orchestra of high schoolers that was…

November 8-14, 2023
LW: 128.4 TW: 128.4 Well I managed to hold steady even though my 7-day average steps (11,809) were much lower than last week, and so was my average kcals burned (1,784). I can't really blame the weather because we had warmer temps than initially forecast and I was able to walk outside on several days. Hubby even went with…

Nov 1 - 7
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.4 Only a little sweet stuff, and I'm up a quarter pound. We had a very fun Halloween. Since we get so few kids trick-or-treating in our neighborhood, we opted for a bowl of candy on the porch, and went to our daughter's home to take granddaughter out. Their neighborhood is a bustle of families with small…

October 25 - Nov 1
LW: 133.8 TW: 133.2 Well, I feel that is on track for the rate I reduce weight, so I'll take it. Kelly, it's great to read your post. Your life is in full raising a family mode, and now you have your wonderful cabin to add to the mix of it all. I know what that's like, and it's a challenge, but so much fun. Lots of great…

October 18-24, 2023
LW: 129 TW: 129.4 And so it goes. This week my weight has swung from the lowest it has been in a while (128.2) to 130.4 the very next day with no logical reason. Sodium, intake, activity--everything okay. So I'm fine with today's number. Sheesh, first let me add that I am sending up prayers that your newest grandbaby will…

Oct 11 - Oct 17
LW: 134.2 TW: 134 It sure takes me a lot longer to reduce than it takes to increase in weight, argh. Can't be on long with Family Zoom coming up, but wanted to get the new thread started. I hope everyone is well. Lois, I'm sending your hubby healing thoughts for his back. You cannot miss Disney!! Take care, and at night if…

October 4-10, 2023
LW: 129.0 TW: 129.0 Well, holding my own, which is a bit of disappointment since I put a lot of effort into meeting my kcals burned daily goal of 1700. And some days, that has taken some effort. It's amazing how few calories us shorties burn going about our daily business. Despite the good weather that has allowed me to…

Sept 27 - Oct 4
LW 219.4 TW 219.4 No gain!! I will take it. Today was the last 530am wake up call to schedule Disney dining reservations - until they open Goofy's Kitchen for Thanksgiving reservations of course (not yet available and we're watching daily). Unlike DisneyWorld, you can only book one day of reservations as they open 60 days…

LW: 129.4 TW: 128.8 Whew! Holding my own. Not a lot happening since I posted yesterday. Still dealing with the plumbing issue. Parts are in for the car, but it's a complex fix so we don't have a finish date. Hubby has moved his trip to see cousins in upstate PA to October. I heard from my second mall walking buddy today. I…

LW 220.4 TW 218.8 Worked hard...really had to watch what I eat. Walked and watched and watched and was HUNGRY many times. Still on the plan...another order arrived today. Work is still insane - still waiting for the other department to finish their side before I can even begin to load and start our side. Still doing all of…

September 6-12, 2021
LW: 130.2 TW: 129.0 Gosh it feels strange to type out a date that does not include August. I love fall and welcome cooler weather, but I'm already dreading the shorter amounts of daylight. I managed to survive the dinner with friends for hubby's birthday and the cookout on Labor Day without gaining, but now I still have…

August 30-September 5, 2023
WBL: 128.4 LW: ??? TW: 130.2 Well, I'm up about two pounds from where I was week before last. I have no idea about last week since my sister has a very old bathroom scale and it was very obvious that it was nowhere near accurate. Staying with them was a good reminder to me to not get into that mode that many older people…

August 23 - 29
222.9 221.8 WOW. Well I wasn't expecting that number since I had Chinese last night and we know what the sodium can do to us. I've been struggling to follow the program, but I am pushing to adhere to it. I just can't seem to survive on just their 5 "fuelings" and one meal - even tho I do split it in two. I'm addicted to…

August 16-22, 2023
LW: 128.8 TW: 128.4 This is going to be quick for today as the neighbors who are going to water our plants in the back while we are away are coming down for dessert and coffee soon. The past few days have been hectic and yesterday I had a undesirable surprise. :/ I was busily cleaning up and saw something in the floor in…

August 9-15, 2023
LW: 129.2 TW: 128.8 Well happy hump day. Thought I'd start the thread and weigh in before the day gets away from me. I'm pretty happy with my weight today because it's more or less stable in spite of the fact that we've had brownies and lemon bars in the house for the past couple of days. I made them for hubby to take to a…
