I had my jaw wired shut for six weeks years ago, so I can sympathize about pureed foods - they do get old rather fast. I remember eating some type of baked potato soup that was pretty good. Towards the end I ate a lot of ground up Skyline chili. I'm not sure where you're from or if you've heard of it. It's kind of a…

Awesome - great job! If you find your younger self out there, would you look for mine, too? ;)

Put a couple of chicken breasts in the crockpot with a can of cream of chicken soup and let it cook on low about 6 hours (or 3-4 hrs on high). Serve over brown rice or whole-grain noodles. The chicken will be tender and fall apart. Easy and delicious!

I try to get up at least once an hour to make copies, send a fax, etc. I'll get up and walk to someone's office to talk to them instead of sending an e-mail. Take the steps instead of the elevator. Take a walk during your lunchtime if you have enough time. I'm facing the same struggle - good luck!

Wow, that's amazing, Charles! Way to go! You can really see a difference in your waist and midsection, as well as your face. Keep up the great work!

When I used to get a 1-hour lunchtime, I used to power walk for about 30 minutes with some of my coworkers. I loved getting exercise in during the day. That way if I wasn't able to work out that evening, I didn't feel so bad, and if I did work out at night, it was a bonus. Unfortunately I now only get 30 minutes for lunch,…

Maybe you can set a reminder (like a beep on your watch or something) to go off once an hour, and just get up from your desk and walk a bit to keep your metabolism going a little better, even to go make a copy or something. A quick walk at lunch and taking the steps whenever you can might help, too. My job is also…

Not a great weekend for me. Had a few drinks on Saturday. Didn't eat too badly, though. Feelin like crap with a nasty cold but trying to eat decently today. How are the rest of you doing this fine Monday?

My biggest stumbling blocks seem to be lack of time and lack of energy. I know that my lack of energy is partially because I'm not eating very well and I need to turn that around. I started working full time about nine months ago and feel like I have so little time between working, housework, taking my daughter to her…

Hi folks! New to the group. Became eligible for my AARP card last summer. :) Is there anything I should do on a regular basis with this group? Weekly weigh ins? Goal setting? Or is it mostly motivation and support? I like the way you've all gotten to know each other on a more personal basis and lend support to life issues…

Sounds great! Looking forward to it!

Hi there! I'm pretty much just starting over, too, (for the umpteenth time) and have a significant amount of weight I need to lose. I seem to be able to start a program and have some success, but then I always backslide into eating too much fast food and junk. I just turned 50 recently and know I need to turn things…
