Congrats to the whole team for 1st place by pounds and 2nd place by percentage! A special shout-out goes to @vegan4lyfe2012 and @AustinRuadhain for making it onto the leaderboard ! @Cornanda Thank you ! @DrewsAnna I hate neighborhood fireworks . They set them off around here a few days before the 4th and a few days after.…

@fabgeekmom Thank you ! Haha ulterior motives! I bet dinner was good. @gemwolf110 Thank you ! I'm glad you had a nice weekend. That sucks about the dryer but good you got it taken care of or it could have caused a fire. Have a good week! @theslightedgeforever You are welcome ! Yeah you don't need bookmarks if you read…

I agree that it would be good to mix it up. Thanks for doing the behind-the-scenes stuff for this club, @nancyinmiami !

@digger61 @gemwolf110 Congrats on the losses ! @laurelfit57 Summer is definitely a busy time ! I hope you are having fun camping. I hope you can figure out the picture thing, I would miss your pictures (and I want to see Ty swimming!). @vegan4lyfe2012 Congrats on the loss ! @TeresaW2024 Awww , poor sweet Joe! That is…

@theslightedgeforever Well here's another piece of the puzzle : I will lose the most weight during my first year after surgery. So, time is ticking. I want to try to get down to my goal weight by my 1 year anniversary (December). So, part of getting there is following the doctor's orders. If you ask my husband, he would…

@cre804 I signed up for the weekly emails and have been getting them for a while now. I find them helpful but I don't always read them. I asked ChatGPT for some possible choices for books for the club with high ratings. Below are some options. I have NOT read these so I can't say if they will be good but they have good…

@TeresaW2024 Yes , that's exactly right. You are human! And you are right about deciding to change your life and willing to do the hard work. Thank you! I'm glad Joe is feeling a bit better and you didn't have to go to the ER on 4th of July...that would truly be an awful experience! People were letting off fireworks in the…

@fabgeekmom Good job balancing out the calories by saving dinner for lunch ! What a great idea to grill the pizzas. Thank you! I appreciate that, that's quite the compliment! Hello all. I had a fun day yesterday. I am meeting some former coworkers for coffee today so I made them some bookmarks as a gift. We went to ramen,…

@nancyinmiami Oh no ! I'm sorry you have to have an additional eye surgery. I hope it goes well! I prefer 8 pm EDT but I will try to make 7 pm work if that is everyone's preference. @jessicakrall8 I read a lot. I love reading! In fact, I love books so much, I became a librarian! My top three genres are : - Literary Fiction…

Happy 4th to the Americans in the group!

@Cornanda Congrats on 20 .7 lbs down!!!

@TeresaW2024 Thank you , me too! Oh no! I'm so sorry that happened. It's a good thing you got that electric lift, I'm glad you were able to get him off the floor. You were just worried, Teresa. Please don't be upset with yourself. When people get worried about a loved one, it can come out in weird ways. Good idea to buy…

Trooworld Fridays PW: 190.6 lbs CW: 187.6 lbs -3.0 lbs LTD: 69.4 lbs Pounds to go: 22.6!

@fabgeekmom Me too , thanks! Yes, it was really good and not spicy. Good job with the bike! Happy birthday to your son. You have been celebrating a lot lately, for good reasons! I know you will get back to it. @gemwolf110 Happy 4th ! I hope you are well. @theslightedgeforever Ah I see . That makes sense not to go in the…

@TeresaW2024 Thank you , me too! Yes! Same Comic-Con that was h*ll last year. Luckily (kind of), we could only get a ticket for one day this year. Hopefully I can make it! Oh no! I'm sorry about Joe's losing weight and needing the pills again. I love the Fairlife Core Power drinks, the chocolate ones taste like chocolate…

@fabgeekmom Me too . Yes, I was hoping to get out of cooking all week lol. It was! Good job with the swim! I'm glad you had a good birthday. I hope Sam's Club went well. Dinner sounds good. @its _cleo Thank you! Hope you are well. Hi all. My knee is feeling much better. I have to work today but my boss and a senior…

DISCUSSION QUESTION: What does “balance” look like for you on your weight loss journey?

@TeresaW2024 Thank you ! Oh yes, you are right! LOL I can drive and go to work. Oh gosh, I wish they would but my knee is feeling much better and they probably won't let me work from home more than my usual Fridays. But at least my knee is feeling better! I hope yesterday went well for you guys. It must be really stressful…

@its _cleo That's great. And yes, new month! I love red lentil soup. You can do all kinds of things with the spices in that. Thank you! It is a pain, just when I was on a roll with exercise. Yes, I kind of feel that way, too. That's good that you have hope. I hope you get your walk in with no pain and get to go to yoga,…

@AustinRuadhain Way to go , woo hoo! @vegan4lyfe2012 It's amazing you went from having zero grandchildren to having 5 within 2 years ! :) What a great picture. I think you will love that soup. Yeah, I don't post anything about my weight loss surgery or how much I've gained/lost on social media because of those haters. I…

@mh7816 Thank you ! Well, she didn't say that, but she had this look on her face like she was disappointed. Maybe she was just disappointed I didn't tell her sooner (we aren't that close, so why would I, though?). You are exactly right: it is a tool! That's great to hear about your friend. I'm sorry you are struggling.…

@AustinRuadhain Congrats on 40 lbs down !

@txcritter69 Congrats on your 30 lbs down !

Congrats to the whole team for achieving 1st place for the month of JUNE! and 1st place for the last week of June! Congrats to @AustinRuadhain for taking down 1st place for the month . A special shout-out goes to @txcritter69 @bobboyardee @AustinRuadhain @Digger61 and @alimalli86 for also leading the way ! I want to point…

@fabgeekmom Yes . I did, thanks! Good job with the bike. I'm glad you liked the food. I hope grocery shopping went well. Hi all. I met my friend for coffee and then got to the gym at about 8:15 am. Luckily, it wasn't busy and I was able to do my workout without modifications. We went for coffee in the afternoon and that's…

@Cornanda It said the same thing for me , so I let it go and checked on it a couple hours later. I wish it were faster! Last night, I did a different image for a birthday card I'm making, and after 2 hours, it still wasn't done. I love the cartoon of Gus! Oh no, I didn't take your comment like that at all. Thank you for…

I am one of your Mission Slimpossibles captains along with the fabulous @Katmary71 ! Our motivator is the inspiring and supportive @micaroo4 ! MY INTRODUCTION Hi everyone. My name is Chris. I live in Southern California with my husband, cute one-eyed pirate pug named Daisy (9 yrs old) and pug pup name Violet who is 2 yrs…

@its _cleo Thank you, I did! I hate that, too. Ugh. I like buckwheat: it has a nice texture and is healthy. I'm sure you did better in June than you did in May with take-out, right? And you'll do better in July. I'm glad you tried the mobility class even if you decide it wasn't for you. The farmer's market sounds fun. Do…

@micaroo4 I love it ! @AustinRuadhain Thanks , it is! I hope things do shift. I've been losing since Jan 10th, so to stop losing was a bummer! I hope the creatine is working, too. Yeah, @Cornanda had a good point : maybe she was disappointed I didn't tell her sooner. Oh well! The soup was really good, I highly recommend…

@fabgeekmom It was really good . The soup was really good, I highly recommend it. No, it's basically maintaining...it just makes me disappointed because I've lost every week since Jan 10. Good job with the swim! Humidity makes all the difference. We don't have to deal with too much humidity here (thankfully). I'm glad you…
