@Tomsgal1985 Thank you, Susan. Nice weigh-in this morning! And doesn't it feel good to get rid of excess things!!

Hello, Jill and company. I am ready to come back. Dad did indeed pass away on November 28th. Christmas preparations and the holidays were followed by a two week vacation. We got back on Friday night. I will choose Wednesdays as my weigh-in day. Oh, and my husband also wants to lose weight, so it might be easier this time?…

@deepwoodslady Thank you, Donna <3 @iLive2Walk Enjoy your trip, Darlene!

It is a thread, not a group, so there is nothing to "join". Follow the format set out by the OP and just start typing in the comments section. Introduce yourself, ask questions. Someone will guide you.

It has been over 36 hours since we got off the plane, we didn't eat very much yesterday (giving our digestive tracts a rest), and a more relaxed bowel now that I am home (TMI, I know), has resulted in the scales being down three pounds this morning. Back in Onederland!!

Yeah, I know, it sounds like an excessive amount of travel, but these trips were actually planned for us. The cruise was for a friend's 50th birthday. She sent the invite out last March. There were six couples that ended up going. The conference happened to be starting two days later, only about a 75 minute drive north, so…

Thought I would pop in for an update. Dad did indeed pass away on November 28th. He died in hospital before we could find palliative care for him. I got down to 194 right around that time. Put on ~5 at Christmas. We just got back yesterday from a two week vacation (an Eastern Caribbean cruise out of Fort Lauderdale…

Thank you for reaching out, @DaffyGirl88. It prompted me to post this. I guess I have disappeared again. This time, though, it is completely different. The day after I drove to my dad’s to take him to an appointment and he wasn’t doing well, I ended up driving back to his place and taking him in to the ER. (We didn’t send…

Thanks, Dianne. I did indeed go back to bed and was there until almost 10 am. My husband brought me my coffee on the couch when I got up. Right now I am having my breakfast at my computer. When my headache subsides we are going to go for a walk; it is a lovely, albeit cool, November day!

So, I have been with my dad in the hospital for the past two days. He is still in the ER because there is no bed for him in the ward, but he does have his own room. He is on the high flow O2 so his levels are now acceptable, and he is on antibiotics because they are assuming he is fighting another pneumonia infection. His…

@Tomsgal1985 Wow, you got to see both sides of the family; that's cool! @DaffyGirl88 Have fun in the Big Apple! Never been...it is on the bucket list, though! @murdog3t Great weigh-in, Tami!

@dogwalker157 Sorry about the tooth pain. Well done on not letting the animal crackers uprising get ugly! So, I have been with my dad in the hospital for the past two days.

Yesterday did not go to plan overall. Dad was not doing well when I got there, so I cancelled his eye appointment. That meant not going out to Tim's for lunch. Dad had his lunch brought to his room and I told him I would grab something on the way home, that I had had breakfast and I would be fine. Well I sat with him while…

@joandumas42 and @GenXMissusSpags Congratulations on your uplifting weigh-ins this week! Should make getting through week #2 just that much easier!

@SusanPalmer3308 This is a discussion thread under the category of "Challenges". Anyone can read it or comment on it or reply to someone's comment by quoting it first.

@toniiaa28 A solid two kg loss in the first two weeks! @Rh1aB1a Whoo hoo on breaking into the 165's!! @jm216 Congratulations on stepping back into Onederland!! You must have been pretty pumped to see that "1" this morning!

Morning, all! Have to take my dad to his eye injection appt today. One hour to his place, half an hour to the appt, lunch at Tim Horton's, half an hour back to his place, one hour home. At least it is going to be a beautiful day and the drive to the actual appt is along the Grand River for a majority of it. Wednesday…

No typo. Welcome to free public health care!

Absolutely! My actual motto is "Fake it 'til you make it!!"

I don't know how far back any of you have read on this thread, but on page 21, on the first of November, Dianne (@dogwalker157) and I reintroduced ourselves to start the new month off on a positive note, hoping maybe to entice some more people to join in. So even if you read from there, you will be caught up on what is…

@murdog3t Thanks, Tami! My slightly torn meniscus, my lack of physical fitness at the moment, my weight and the fact that the floors under the tile would be cement as it is a fertilizer plant, all conspire to make my legs ache after a prolonged time in the office. I wear good running shoes and stand on an anti-fatigue mat…
