I am a bit guilty of 'eating to the weigh in' - you know, like 'teaching to the test'. A couple days before Thursday I get my act together. I am going to stop that. If I want to make real progress, it needs to be a daily consciousness. I did enjoy an indian meal last night and I will still allow some pleasure foods/meals…

Good morning, @jugar PW 169.4 CW 168.4 making better choices and you all in my head

@micki48 sorry to hear of your sciatica, I know that is a devilishly painful thing to have. Hope it disappears as quickly as it's come on. @jane_76 What a truly lovely way to remember your mother. My mum died early August and for the first couple of months it was 'ok' and calm, after the awful last year, but now the…

Great share @DD265 with that squash recipe - looks amazing! Could pack some calories but I'd be willing to 'starve' much of the day to give that a try. Nice website too - the butternut laksa looks good too. Feeling very satisfied with my outdoor accomplishments today and my eating was just fine - especially considering the…

Friday and it's a day off work (veterans' day) - a project or 'must do' everywhere I turn. I am NOT going to turn to the fridge. Into my outside work clothes and take things one at a time. A salad planned for lunch and fish tacos for supper with one Corona. Huge rain and wind expecting tonight.

@KellyBgetsfit sending good thoughts for Mabel - any hospitalization is a worry, hope she's home with you soon.

After my last post where I wrote how my prelogging was super helpful to me when I was doing great....I've been better - still haven't quite logged ( @micki48 breakfast club!!) but I'm coming around to it. Weigh in tomorrow and I want to be in the green! given the option to pick a night to celebrate her MBA and 4.0 average,…

@conleywoods sorry to read of your sick household...maybe, hopefully, when you are all done with this, that will be IT for the winter...I hope so. @jugar icecream & dads - I can relate, challenged myself when shopping recently and bought dad some icecream and I completely failed the challenge, he got one bowl, I ate the…

I am a person who walks in the evening. no commitment on how many times/week, how long or how strenuous. Just to be sure to get out there in the dark and quiet evening, look up at the stars, walk for a bit and BREATHE.

good morning all, I'm Sylvia here in Massachusetts, and a longtime Waistaway. My weight has swung up and down through life but never staying down for long...I would like it to be forever, I feel better, but I know that for me it will be a lifelong battle and I'll always have to be conscious. I'm a snacker, a too-big…

@jugar , sorry for delay, and here the weight that I typed in yesterday, without hitting post reply! CW 170.4

You Waistaways are creeping back into my brain and my decision making. :)

I CANNOT believe we're already talking about November! Welcome @BeeHapppy101, @DianaGetsFit512 and @ashleydlevinson! This is a great group and no doubt you'll glean some helpful tips and strategies from the chat. I've weighed every day this week and added it to the post-it note on the fridge door. Have had 2 moments of…

@DD265 that's a good idea, to track the binge - the what and the why. I think I'll need to start that...ahem...right now, this minute. @jugar you'll have your memories of this musical trip to savor through the winter ahead as you tromp around on your snowshoes. I did good with food yesterday. I think I'll try to do a lot…

@jugar PW 172.6 CW 169.8

good morning, love reading all the posts, I glean a little something each time (1% concept) and, as a bit of a hermit at the moment, enjoy reading of squid lunches, bicycle rides, hockey games, terrariums...the workouts you all do - will have to investigate Caroline Given. I feel that maybe, there's some tide that's turned…

@ashleycarole86 @micki48 , I was hopeful that maybe MFP had lost so many people due to barcode scan that they'd reinstated with the free version but no, although the option is right there, when clicked on, I'm invited to join for $20/month. No thank you.

@jugar PW 171.8 CW 172.6 Well so much for being in the green for the month. But I'm not going to derail now. I know exactly what it was; I baked bread last night then had to 'test' it. @DD265 your BED program is sounding interesting...structure and a plan.

I chose soup when I got home last night from my late night at work. That felt like a win. One step at a time to try to claw my way back to when my clothes felt good. @ashleycarole86 Hugs to you as you heave out of your slump. It can be very hard. Not buying candy...at all...I know myself too well. @jugar your new dress…

Off to do garden work for someone, first time in 3 months, I'm sure I'll be feeling my muscles later on tonight. It's a good opportunity to contemplate the WA challenge, "I'm a person who...."

So, I was feeling overly confident and bought a tub of choc.ice cream for my dad who, poor thing, had his upper teeth bridge fall out. Nope. I can not have a whole tub of that in the house. It's gone now. I'm inclined to buy a tub because it's cheaper that way but I'll have to bite the bullet and, if buying for him, only…

@jugar PW 172.1 CW 171.8

I'm late to the party but I'm here. I'm Sylvia,53, in Massachusetts. My weight's fluctuated throughout the decades, never remaining at a low for long. I did great with MFP and Waistaways support in 2020, lost 50 lbs and thought that would be it, the new me, forever, but no, up 25 or so lbs, it's a lifelong battle, I've…

@jugar CW 172.1

@jugar CW 172.5

Very late introduction here. I'm Sylvia,53, in Massachusetts, caregiver for my 93 yr old dad and w/ a fulltime office job...realized recently that I feel a bit like a single parent...but it's not forever. My weight has swung way up and down throughout my life, managing to get to good comfortable weights, only to overeat…

@jugar Sorry to be late. I did weigh yesterday morning but then the day got away from me. PW 169.7 CW 169.7

@jugar CW 169.7 and I'd like to join back in on the regular team for September please.
