@3furballs - Now I understand. Thank you. :)

Crystal Light drink mixes are very low in calories and they make numerous flavors - easy to find something you like. I usually mix it with double the recommended water - it's still fairly sweet at that concentration. The Mio water enhancers are also good for flavoring water and it's easy to add to a tumbler or water bottle…

Photos from river camp last week. Salmon River in west central Idaho. Some river sculpture. The pack bridge at Mackay Bar.

@3furballs - Great workout. I have a question. We usually do pistol squats using TRX straps for support. You are using large rubber bands for support - correct? While standing on a heavy bag - am I understanding this correctly? Thank you.

Borrowing your idea to make some Christmas gifts, Mr. Thomas. Thank you for the inspiration.

I'm usually a black coffee guy, but some cream is a nice addition now and then. Or some Jameson's. :D

Good to hear, Molly! That was the idea. Now to motivate myself to do the same!

Well done, Molly!

Hope you find a way to get your workouts in. I'm sure you'll figure out something! I got an invitation to the river and so I went fishing for three days - plenty of movement and walking. Got the first workout of the week tonight. Squat day tomorrow.

I donate platelets these days. Usually an early Sunday morning appointment. I make sure to eat and hydrate all day and often do a brisk walk in the afternoon. Good to hear about other's experiences with this situation.

Got 4 workouts and two walks in so far this week. Hopefully I'm back to more regular workouts!

Another Libra user here. Works well for me.

Amen to that, becca! Learning to skip the daily beers has helped me a lot .

I've hit 4 days this week so far. Now to keep this up through winter and the holiday season. And a happy Little Friday to you!

Did not sleep well due to some heartburn. Still feeling it when I woke up and was not motivated to go to the gym, but I went anyway. The exercise made me feel better and heartburn was gone about 10 minutes into the workout. #disciplinetrumpsmotivation

Aliens. Best science fiction movie evah!

Been there. Go to the grocery. Spend $140. Put groceries in pantry and refrigerator. Everyone else in the house complains "There's nothing good to eat". HAHA! :D

Bumpity bump!

Thanks for posting your thoughts, Kim. I've been plateaued for a while and it is starting to get me down. You reminded why I started this weight loss program. I'm not doing this all over again. You've given me renewed determination.

Lots of good info on diet breaks in the first few pages of this thread. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10604863/of-refeeds-and-diet-breaks/p1

Breakfast for me after a gym session - cottage cheese, protein powder, oats and chia seeds. Usually 30 to 45 grams of protein depending on how much protein powder I add.

Hey hey hey! Need that kick in the *kitten*. Had two weeks of travel and camping. The good news - minimal weight gain. The bad news - I've been slacking a bit on the exercise for the last couple of months. Worked out yesterday - going for a long walk today. Squats are on the agenda for tomorrow morning. I'm hoping this is…

Bill me later.

That's so you!

I'm 64. I have lost about 40 lbs. and have maintained that for a year. Need to lose another 20-30. The support here is awesome and helps me stay on program. I'm on here most days. Add me as a friend if you like. Glad to share support and encouragement. I like your idea, @dejavuohlala. There are several threads aimed at…

Gorgeous! I am blessed to live in Idaho. We fish the section between Vinegar Creek and Riggins most of the time. We camp on a beach in that section. Will post a couple of photos later.

It's not your clothes getting more sexy. It's all you!

The Salmon River in central Idaho. 5 days. Unusually heavy rain. We fish from an aluminum drift boat. Caught two steelhead - both were wild and so were released.

Here we go! 7/12/18 - 210.5 - Arrggghhhh! The bad…

Check around the ski shops and sporting goods stores. We can rent snowshoes and skis and other gear at the local ski area. A great way to try out snowshoes without spending beaucoup dollars. They have gear for everyone from children to large adults.
