1. I hit 20lbs lost! 2. I hit 20lbs lost! 3. I hit 20lbs lost!

@pamperedlinny Congrats!!! That is big! I also broke a landmark today. I'm soooo close to being in "One"derland I can taste it! 1 broke my plateau today. And I didn't give up. 2 a friend who likes to bring me biscuits at work said she would bring a salad for lunch next week. My resolve is showing to others. 3 said no to…

@sista67 welcome. you've found a nice supportive positive group.

@pamperedlinny I'm still here. Still watching and counting. Thank you for asking! 'm just not very good at remembering to comment each day. 1. It feels great to have your Dr. get excited for your accomplishments. 2. I have never felt as motivated as I do right now, even though I'm in a plateau. 3. My a1c is down!

Today I'm grateful for 1 grocery pick up lol 2 I had a wonderful morning taking my fur babe into all the stores she likes. Local pet store, Petsmart, and Lowes. She's miss personality and made a young lady with challenges very happy to see the "big doggy" 3 my hubby said he thought my face was thinner after being gone all…

@DawnCumm we've all been there. As long as you continue to start over 😁

Today 1 it's Friday. I made it! Hubby has been out of town all week. 2 I stayed on track all week. 3 my biggest problem is having too many calories left at the end of the day. A problem I never thought I'd have. I'm calling it good for the moment!

3 things before my day goes crazy! 1. down a total of 18.1lbs. 2. feel like its getting easier to say no 3. I'm spending more time on my stationary bike in VR. i love riding through virtual worlds the time flies by. me and hubby in our MetQuest2 headsets. that should wake everyone up lol

No, I'm not dead and I haven't quit. It's just that really busy time at work and I can't seem to find the time to write. I will check in here and there to say hello and be a little accountable. I have lost 16+ pounds so far and I seem to have found a rhythm. So, as was popular to say in the 70's, everything is Groovy here…

Fast and busy day here in NC. But all was well. Grateful today for 1) getting on the scale and seeing a loss over the weekend! Does that happen? Really? 2) seeing my spoiled baby dog (85lbs) eat dry food. She's just a might picky...my fault. But she's gonna get on program also! 3) this group getting me to end my day with…

Happy Last Minute of the Weekend! Trying to put a positive twist on that 😁 1. Was awful at dinner on Friday but I've been great back on track in boundaries all weekend. I call that a win 🏆 2. My fingers look better than hubby. Got my nails done and while there he calls to tell me he's going to get stitches in his finger.…

@pamperedlinny But I reeeealy wanted that donut at the time! Yesterday a very nice customer brought us a dozen specialty bakery glazed donuts. I resisted all day with the guys taunting me....I caved when there was only one left. I ate only two bites and I logged it in my diary. That should have been a positive for me…

I hadn't picked up on the daily positives so here's three positives for this week in review: 1. I found y'all! 2. I purchased the whole year premium for more information but also so I'm more likely to stick with it and not waste my money. 3. My son (who is a born again Crossfit preacher and eats to gain muscle guy) is a…

Who tries to track Macros? I've been looking at it but it seems I'm always low on protien. Not a big meat eater and the Ozempic I take for diabetes makes meat very unappealing for me. Any thought on how to divide the plate up? MFP autoset my carbs at 50%, fat 30%, and protien 20%.

@SeleneMoon333 I need to check and see if I should go ahead and claim SS. I've been trtiing to ignore that its this close LOL It has done nothing but RAIN on us here in the mountains for weeeeeeks! Its miserable weather.

HoloFit cycling for me. The peaceful worlds 🙃

Well goodness gracious, we are state neighbors!

@3moons3 Happy Upcoming Birthday to you also. It's the realization that I am eligable for SS and that puts me flat on the other side of the Great Divide (qualifying for all senior discounts) that is a little earth shaking. Although I do look forward to camping at national park campgrounds for half price!

Changed my username but i'm my same sweet self B) what general areas do you all live? I am not shoveling snow in Western NC!

Oh my goodness, I love it here already! I am 61 (hanging on dearly until forced to say 62 in 2 weeks) and am active but hiding several health issues most wouldn't guess. i stuggle to exercise with foot, hand and back issues. But... I'm the happy owner of a stationary bike and a Meta Quest2 and am having a blest cycling…

I also struggle with breakfast ideas on the go. I have been eating belvita but they are so hi in carbs. I need to lower m carb intake and increase my protien. And I hate eggs.....

hi! I have been doing this a long time off and on. But I also need motivation. I am detrmined to get healthy.

I've never done this, measure myself, in the beginning. This time I'm doing things differently!

Please, may I join? I also struggle with accountability and yo yo-ing. I jokingly tell people I've lost the same 25-30 lbs at least 25-30 times. After I lose it I start looking for it all over again because it's so much fun trying to find it! Lol I am a 61yo mother of 5 and GM of 8. I sit in a chair all day, have trouble…

I am an only child and have inherited everything from my mother and grandmother. Things I never use but feel a guilty attachment to. I liove and use most on the antique furniture but have started letting go of some to my children. but small items they don't want.... I just can't seem to start.

Oh my gosh that looks great! I Love the cast iron. That's all i cook in! I have some stainless pots for boing water for pasta but that's it. Hope you feel better soon, and what a great idea to freez portions of store bought rotisserie chicken.

Good mornin all y'all. Rainy bleary day here today in Western NC. I would love to be at home with my book (Paperwhite, I cant hold a book for long). Sounds like everyone is up and about their daily tasks. I've done well this week so far. I've lost 5.2lbs. DH has a terrible time with staying on track with his food choices.…

The dry stream I'm putting together in the front yard could have a zen element to it. :) Machka in Oz[/quote] What is a dry stream?

I go through color phases. If only my budget would allow for new appliances as often i would like to change them! :D
