  • Hi @msarobix Is there a group/community for the challenge and if so where do we join/log in? Also is their a leaderboard?
  • Hi I'm in. Where do we log the results of the challenge?
  • Hi All. I was here in 2015 and learned a lot whilst meeting some amazing people. Last year, I got back into corporate and stuck behind the desk again, and in 6 months put back on everything I had lost. MFP worked for me previously but I am also hoping to find some SA buddies to do the journey with this time. I'm 56 year…
  • Hi all. I’m a returning member rather than a new one. I’m originally from the Uk, have lived 20 yrs in France and now I live in Jozi, South Africa. Is there anyone from Johannesburg? I’d love to meet up with you.
  • 1) Start by walking 15 minutes each day outside. The first time, time yourself to see how long you took. Then make your first goal to achieve the more steps in less time for the first week. 2) Start logging what you eat in the food diary - don’t cheat because you are only cheating yourself 3) Buy a food scale and start…
  • Hi everyone. Hope to find new friends in this group. Please feel free to add me. I’m 55 😊
  • Starting again from scratch. Motivation is always welcome 😁. Also add me if you like.
  • Johannesburg, South Africa 😁
  • Hiya everyone. Also starting from scratch again but I’m in a great space and look forward to diving right back in. I’ll join one of the challenges because it is easier to stay on track and stay motivated.
  • I hope your dad is feeling much better @FindingCindy721 ? I wish for all of you the most amazing year ahead for 2016, filled with strength and courage to master your journey's and good health to enjoy the new found you. Hugs.
  • Hi Cindy. Gosh! You and your family have had a very tough year health wise. Glad to hear that your father is out of ICU though. Hope you are finding sometime to take care of YOU too. Hugs and prayers to you and your loved ones.
  • I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and are all looking forward to the New Year. I haven't had time to catch up on all that I have missed but will do so over the next few days. I'm feeling awesome and finally moved and started my new job on 1st December. I'm ready for the new year and the exciting challenges that lie…
  • Hi Ann! Welcome!
  • Thanks Liz. Jeez it's quiet here :D Stressing a lot. House move is hopefully postponed because sale hasn't gone through. But packing has started. Contract renewal has to take place this week. My agent and my client/boss are tiptoeing around each other! I have to write the extension myself. Have to now put together a…
  • Wow! A lot happens in a month. Sending love and courage and strength to those of you who are struggling. My heart goes out to you all. Megan it I great to hear you are moving on. Don't apologize for grieving. It's the healthiest thin you did for yourself. Hugs. MD how are you managing? Big hugs to you too Marcell hi. How…
  • Wow! So much has happened and is happening, which means that we are truly living our lives. Cindy, sorry to hear about the runaround you are getting from the oncologists but glad they have scheduled a second follow up immediately. It sounds like the new diet plan is really working for you. The focus on healthy foods and…
  • I'm in winter so I will definitely try your Shepard pie Noodle. This is not a recipe but a glimpse into my current lifestyle.... Note the absence of exercise. Which I will get back into when it gets a little warmer. Stripping off my clothes when it is so cold is not conducive to gyming in my mind! Rather than three main…
  • My goal this week Get my team to stop work and eat lunch 3 of 5 days. We work like machines and my colleagues are only eating at the end of the day when it is time to go home. I made them stop twice this week to eat at lunch time outside of the meeting room.
  • I feel fit, I feel healthy, I sleep like a baby most nights and am rested in the mornings when I get up. I'm just over halfway of towards my goal, which means I'm still on track but I'm wondering if my goal is too low now. I'm already freezing this winter because of losing my insulation layers :D I'm one size down from my…
  • So for Father's Day, I am spending some of my morning planning things that my parents and I can do together that don't have to involve food - playing board games, going for drives to the ocean, taking rides on historic train routes, visiting family members in the area. I am also mentally rehearsing strategies to not get…

  • 1) 5/7 2) 5/7 3) 0/1 This weeks goals are the same.
  • Marcella, I'm sorry to hear about your back but glad it is on the mend now. Take it slow, I know the frustration of getting back into action and the pain it causes when we go to fast. Does it seem strange to not have them around Liz? Or are you grateful for the time to focus only on your projects? MD I saw that you are…
  • Well done Maman and Papa on contributed to such a beautiful success story. And CONGRATULATIONS Kyli on your graduation and your new job! You are amazing! You are a very blessed family and I am so happy to see the fortune that smiles down on you all. Cindy. Please, please, please get at least 6 or 7 hours of sleep. It is…
  • Cindy fell asleep on the keyboard :D :D :D Hi Ladies! It's 6 months almost to the day since I started on MLP and it took only a couple of weeks to revert back to most of my bad habits. There are several major differences though: 1. I know now that when my body is aching all over, that I am exhausted and that my brain seems…
  • I didn't make it to Curves last week. I also have reverted completely back to all bad habits. My goals for this week 1. 3 Meals a day 2. Hit at least 1000 calories per day 3. Curves at least once
  • Sending hugs Megan. So glad that you have professional support at this time. My prayers and thoughts go out to you. Cindy, that is great news about the good numbers. I am sure they will find out what is happening soon for the other stuff. Sorry that it has to happen on your birthday but I guess they gave you the first…
  • My goal this week is to get back to Curves at least twice. I'm now scared to exercise I found out yesterday :#
  • I'll check my spelling. My name is aaliceinw on Garmin connect too.
