Welcome @OhioDido ! I was born and raised in Cincinnati, but now live in Louisiana with my hubby! We did a hard 8 mile hike today, burned some calories! yay!

Good to hear from you @SweetHeart299 ! There hasn't been activity here but hey, I'm in the same boat as you and ready to start paddling back! I am 10 pounds over the lowest weight I was in 2019 and determined to lose 5 #. Yes, I would like to lose 10, but baby steps and reality are necessary right now!!! Have a Great Week!

,July 8,2024 Wow! I'm just now checking in for July and ya'll are running like crazy! I love to see this!!! We are staying at 8500ft elevation in Colorado for July and August to avoid the southern Heat. It takes me a long time to get acclimated and we are planning to run a little less and hike a little more. @henridw2095 I…

Sunday, June 9, 2024 Happy Sunday Runners! 10.3 miles so far in June! You all are so incredibly inspiring, Thank You! I run 4 days a week, except on vacation where I walk way too much! I seem to need more rest time as I age👵 I’ll be 67 in November. Is anyone else an old runner?

Good Morning Runners! I haven’t posted in this group for a few months, but I’m back😃 I broke my arm in January, had a plate put in in February and we’re leaving for a week vacation with grandkids today so not much running this year or this week because dag gone it, those kids wear me out! I will set an unrealistic goal of…

Happy Mother's Day to Everyone <3 I'm doing good, running and eating a little healthier. Ezekiel bread instead of Sarah Lee bread or white bagels and Simple Mills crackers instead of Premium white crackers. Still tracking what I eat everyday and am maintaining my weight but not losing. Right now that is ok. I sure miss you…

I'm getting back to being serious about my health. Listening to The Ultimate Human podcast and also @gregphopkins recommendation of Dr. Berg. I am running and love that I still get the good feeling from that exercise. I hope everyone is doing good.

Hellooooo???? I hope everyone is doing ok. I am doing so-so on my eating, but I can move my broken arm a lot more than I could a month and even a week ago. I'm going to run tomorrow. I haven't run since 1/13 and I'm very anxious to see how much I've slowed down. Keep up the healthy eating and stay happy!

Good Morning! Just checking in to say I am thinking of you!

Happy Sonday to All! Wow, I woke up before 3am and couldn't get back to sleep, not sure why. But I'm still feeling good, ate good yesterday and went for a long walk, 5.83 miles with about half a mile of marching. I can imagine what the neighbors thought!!! Like most of us I would like to be healthy without pills so I'm…

Good Morning! Good to hear from you Sarah! I woke up feeling much better than I have been. I'm anxious to hear how the Y went. Hubby is finally ready to get back to going to the gym. I've been wanting to try the stationary bike, but I don't have enough range of motion in my arm to drive to the gym. Greg, I started watching…

Good Morning All! Thank You Greg! I’m happy your boat is making the turn. Today I commit to grabbing the wheel on mine✔️ We have a short trip today to take some firewood down to some friends so I have to cut it short. Have a good and healthy day!

Hello Fellow Fitness Pals! I have had a very bad mind set lately. I don't seem to care and I want to eat in abundance. No doubt I've been feeling sorry for myself and I can't seem to shake it. I go for a walk and feel better but it doesn't last long. My weight hasn't increased much, but I can definitely tell I'm getting…

Hello All! Well, the weekend is almost here, not meaning much to an old, retired lady! I went for my 2-week ckup after surgery yesterday and I wasn't totally ecstatic. He wants me to keep wearing the sling until I go back in 2 weeks. I thought I would start PT, but he said I am not showing any stiffness, so PT is not…

Just checking in to stay accountable! Day 3 of doing good and I'm so happy with that! I got in some squats and stretches yesterday, so I feel good about my exercise and calorie goal! I feel younger than I did a week ago <3 Have a Good Week!

Good Sunday Morning! I stayed within my calorie budget for the first 2 days of the month - YAY! I also try to get in 20 minutes of exercise each day, which could be stretching. So far so good! Today the challenge will be the exercise bc church keeps me busy several hours today. I hope everyone has a Good Day!

Hello All! I got up for a few hours from 1-3am and posted, but lost the post :s I did good yesterday, March 1 so I'm declaring this a "Good" month!!! My arm is getting a fraction better each week but running is still out of the question. @gregphopkins Glad your kvass turned out good. I hate to take time to make something…

3 days left to finish February STRONG! I can do this :) Can you!!! My arm shifted out of alignment even more than originally so I had surgery last Thursday - Ouch :s Oh Sarah, No added sugar! I will try this for the remainder of Feb. Kudos to You for putting it in my head! Both hubby and I have been rewarding ourselves…

Good Morning Weekend! Hubby made a lemon cake yesterday so I went off the rails :D I'm doing exercises that I don't usually do because of my broken arm. It feels good trying new things. I haven't gained weight without running so I'm accepting the fact that fat really does weigh more than muscle!! Funny thing is I pulled…

Good Morning Friends! Finger typing is no fun. Unless there is a dramatic negative change in my x-ray in 2 weeks I will not need surgery! Yay! I got a good walk in today, tried to jog a little, but too much bounce to run. Patience. Patience. Patience. :) Have a good no taco Tuesday!

Hi all! @Marla86336 Congratulations on meeting, surpassing and holding your weight goal! and @sarah7591, so happy to hear you are still at your goal! In the past I have done good over the holidays only to gain the weight back in Jan by rewarding myself for doing good! Anyway, I think you have it figured out! I gained back…

I just wanted to check in to say I wont be posting in the next few weeks. I fell on the ice and broke my arm. Every movement seems to hurt. We are hoping I can let it heal naturally without surgery. Another xray Friday should help see the progress. Y'all keep up the good work!

Happy New Week ! I've had a head cold, with sniffles, sneezes and coughs. Yuk, I think my body is telling me to rest. Hubby said I got it from playing with my neighbor's baby while daddy ran errands! If that was it then ok, baby Myra is worth it! I've put my happiness calendar on the back burner and sticking with my plank…

Good morning friends, Just checking in. All is going surprisingly well. I lost the 4 pounds I gained over the summer and I’m keeping it off! Have a Nice Week!

Good Morning! Welcome End326! You can always come here to share your eating and exercise ups and downs. We all have them. I remember how hard it was to eat healthy with young children. If we were as active as them we could eat like them!!! Sweetheart, Thanks for the vegetable advice. I guess even swimming in sauces the…

Good Morning! I'm going to do the activities on the Action for Happiness calendar in January. (I googled January Action for happiness calendar) I know there are a lot of days I will be leaving my comfort zone. "They" say us seniors need to do that!!! I also started the 30 day plank challenge. I've done 2 versions in the…

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Ours was quiet as the kids had strep throat :s. We probably won't see them until it goes through the whole family. Hubby and I enjoyed our peaceful, non-stressful time together. We did buy a half gallon of ice cream and fixin's before we knew they couldn't make it so; well, I…

Hello! Everyone is quiet lately. I'm guessing it is because we are all overeating, not just me! I don't like that a lot of my enjoyment comes from food. I am still logging and exercising so hopefully the damage won't be too great. Merry Christmas to All!

Good Morning! @greghopkins I like that analogy of the beach ball and keeping weight off! I always enjoy your insights. I too must track and focus on my eating and health or my weight goes up up up and away!!! I wish I didn't but hey, there are so many worse conditions that could affect me. I'm grateful all my gripes are…
