Congratulations Stephanie. You’ve lost 23 lbs in only 2 months. Fantastic! 👏 😎

Hi Nancy. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Sounds like you’ve got things under control, and off to a good start. Keep us updated. 💧

Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. My name is Lisa. What’s yours? Congratulations on finding a diet plan that works well for you. Please keep us updated on your progress. 🥑

Hello Erica. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Thanks for joining us. You’ll probably find when you reach 190, that’s a comfortable weight for you, and you won’t need to lose any more. I’m only 5’ 5” and it’s a very comfortable weight for me. Can’t wait to be a size 16 again. I function well at 190-200. 🪴

Yay! Lily. Happy for you. You’re losing it s-l-o-w-l-y, but you are losing it, and will reach your goal. They say it’s best to lose weight at a turtle’s pace. And you’re certainly doing that. 🐢 👏

Hello Jennifer. My name is Lisa. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Thank you for joining us. According to my calculations, you have about 25 weeks to reach your goal of losing 50 pounds for your daughter’s wedding on September 14, 2024. That means you’ll need to lose about 2 pounds every week for 25 weeks. Sounds reasonable…

Hello Lisa. My name is Lisa. My short-term goal is also 300 lbs. Long term goal is 200. I’ve no desire to be thin. I was always sickly when I was thin. It’s nice to see you again. Thanks for joining us. And yes. Please give us “an update for April.” 😎 👍

Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Yes. Broccoli beef is a healthy choice at Chinese restaurants. Especially for low-carb dieters. Egg foo young is also an excellent choice. 🥡 🥠 🥢

"Any suggestions?" My suggestion is that you keep on doing what you're doing. I agree with Missy (Mjstewies). "You're doing awesome!" According to my calculations, you've lost almost 1 & 1/2 pounds per week in 70 days (about 6 lbs per month). That's perfect. It's best to lose weight slowly. 👏🏼 I hope and pray that I lose…

Here’s a dance workout for us seniors. 💃 🕺 Silver sneakers dance video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6lsGDntAEM

Evelyn, Thanks for the encouraging words. I too drastically need to increase my fluid intake 💧 and have also learned that logging my meals on MFP in advance (sometimes a day in advance), really does help keep me from going over my daily calorie allowance. 🧁

Hello Heather. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. I like your attitude. 😀 👍

Hello Heather. You’ve come to the right place. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. ONEderland here we come! ❄️

👏🏼 Yay, Evelyn. I'm happy happy happy for you. You're much closer to 199 than I am, but I'm confident we'll both be there before March 1. I'm back on track, and lost almost 1/2 a pound today (every ounce counts, right?) I now weigh 324.8. 🦋 Does anyone else have a short term goal to reach on March 1?

I have, and it took me several weeks to recover. 😎 “High-intensity exercise can cause tiny, microscopic tears in your muscle fibers. Your body responds to this damage by increasing inflammation, which may lead to a delayed onset of soreness in the muscles.”

👏 Keep up the good work Roz.

Hello Beth. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏋️‍♀️

Hello Amy. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Thanks for joining. Happy to have you here. Sounds like you’re off to a good start with your healthy diet and all that exercise. 🏃🏻‍♀️🧘

Hello. I just realized you are a male. Happy to have you. Thanks for joining. Please give me an example of what you eat in a day on a plant based diet. Do you eat eggs? Cheese? What do you usually eat for breakfast? Today I ate Kellogg’s cornflakes with soy milk, coffee, 2 oranges, some mixed vegetables, and an entire 3.5…

Last week on my journey, I took the wrong turn and ended up in "STALLSVILLE." So I still weigh 325.2. I plan on taking the next flight out of Stallsville ASAP. I traveled to Costco today, and stocked up on my favorite fire roasted vegetables, some salad kits, frozen mixed fruit for my smoothies, organic vegetable barley…

Hello. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. I admire you for being plant based, and having a long-term goal of 199.9. 👏 My long-term goal is also 199.9. Who wants to be skinny?

Hello Stephanie. You’re progressing very well so far, and off to a good start with healthy, realistic goals. 👏 Thank you for joining me on MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Happy to have you along for the ride.

Evelyn, Sprouts market has a 10 oz bag for about $6.00. Which is only 1 serving for me. Costco has a 4 lb bag for only $15.99. Go to the Puravida website (puravida-foods.com) scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click on “where to buy” to find a store near you that carry’s them. Next time you travel to Costco bring…

I agree, Corina. W-a-a-a-y too expensive for only a 10 oz bag. An entire 10 oz bag is only 1 serving for me. Costco sells a 64 oz (4 lb) bag for only $15.99. 😋

Good going, Evelyn. I plan to make a brief visit to 306.8 in mid February. 😎

The fire roasted Mistura is great. But the fire roasted Melange is even better. The Mistura has broccoli and squash. The Melange has mushrooms and Brussel sprouts. 😋 They come frozen in a big 4 lb bag at Costco.

Hello. Welcome to MY 100 POUND JOURNEY. Thanks for joining us. My UGW is the same as your GW. 😎

Thanks for all the encouragement Susanna. I sure do need it. Doing pretty good so far. Tonight I had a baked potato with a pat of butter, and about 3 cups of vegetable Mistura (frozen from Costco), and 2 navel oranges. Staying under my daily calorie allowance of 1530. 😋

Hello everyone. Today I weigh 325. In the last 5 days, I've lost exactly 4 pounds 🎶. My short-term goal is to be under 300, and weigh 299 (or less), on March 1. ☕️ I figure if I tell you all about it, it will give me the incentive I need to work hard and achieve my goal. 😀 @3rdtimeloseit (Evelyn), will you keep me company…

Thanks for the recipe. The smashed chickpeas sandwich looks beautiful. I’ll make it sometime. I too eat regular mayonnaise (Best Foods), and real butter.
