June’s introduction: Hello to all the newcomers! I’ve been here since September of 2020. I’m a single working mom of a 13 year old. After many years of doing what was easy and overeating I decided to do this for myself. I started at 268, size 22, in 2019 and I cut excess sugar. After I saw a picture of myself And I didn’t…

Kandi3570 Weigh in day Saturday PW 185.8 CW 183.2 Loss 2.6 Steps 79883 My steps are below average for me but I’ve been very busy at work and my active minutes went from typically 40 to averaging about 200 a day. I’m not sure how accurate that is since my Fitbit is clipped to my bra. But I have been a lot busier and having…

I just had my latest favorite meal. Raw veggies with ranch and chicken with peach, pineapple, chipotle salsa with some mozzerella. 451 calories. It’s not crazy hot here today. But again the only thing that sounded good. My garden is in and growing from the rain today. I’m excited to get some of my own veggies. I tried…

@debbiewsharpe you will be missed. I love all of your positivity and motivation. But I understand. 😁

Kandi3570 PW 186 - I think I didn’t log it I just posted CW 185.8 Steps 82171

I posted earlier but evidently mfp isn’t accepting pics today. I did have a bell pepper and carrots with ranch made from cottage cheese and then a piece of chicken with great valu peach and pineapple chipotle salsa. That’s pretty good. I don’t have much of an appetite today. I had my second covid shot. I feel fine so far…

Anybody else just over cooking. It’s nice outside and I don’t want to anymore. Anybody got any good grab and go low cal meal ideas?

@melaniedscott she is getting better she’s in a walking boot and pretty much back to normal. It’s still swelled. She doesn’t complain but she’s always had a high pain tolerance and doesn’t really complain even when sick. So I don’t know how well it’s healing. I also only see it at night after she’s been on her feet all…

Well ladies I went roller skating yesterday. I remembered how, and I loved it. But I won’t be going back. My daughter broke her leg. It’s a clean break and she’s tough. But it’s 6-8 weeks on crutches. So I think I’m going sit out the challenge @minstrelofsarcasm and @melaniedscott. I plan on returning. Maybe it won’t be…

Kandi3570 PW 180.4 CW 185.0 Higher than it should be TOM and a carb binge yesterday. 🤦‍♀️ Steps this week 90856

I have been somewhat absent lately. And I have been slipping. I never do well around holidays. But I’m back. I feel like I’ve gained a few pounds even though the scales fluctuate quite a bit day to day for me, I have consistently been higher. So I did well yesterday and I’m back with more determination. No more slips they…

Kandi3570 Weigh in day Saturday PW 181.4 CW 180.8 Steps 65595 I haven’t done as much this week. In fact I only jogged once and went to the gym twice. I’m slacking. I have been at this weight since The beginning of the year. Give or take a few pounds. As I’m still using nicotine replacement and I’m not completely over…

I am sorry I am late with weigh in. I typed all this out Saturday. It disappeared and then I couldn’t get back in. 🤷‍♀️ Pw 177.2 Cw 181.4 It’s just last weeks loss. Lol I’m holding steady. Steps 91103

Kandi3570 Weigh in day Saturday PW:181.4 CW: 177.2 Loss 4.2 lbs. I started the couch to 5Kapp this week. I feel amazing and I’m losing again. I’ve also been better about snacking. Again I believe because I’m running and kicking in endorphins. Well maybe we should call it jogging. Whatever it is it’s working. Steps this…

Well I just typed out a whole thing for it to disappear. 🤔🤯 So anyway let’s start again. @debbiewsharpe you’re an inspiration. You’re consistency is amazing. I try truly. But I give myself leeway and excuses sometimes. You manage those steps everyday. You inspire us all to do a little better everyday. @lennoncpa ohhh I…

Kandi 3570 Weigh in day Saturday PW 178.4 CW 181.4 Gain 3lbs. It’s an actual gain but it’s muscle. I’ve lost 7.5 inches in 5 weeks at the gym. My body is still losing fat. And I’m perfectly fine with that. I would like to rope in my snacks and lose another 10 or so lbs. I will regain control but it’s not at the top of my…

Kandi 3570 Weigh in day Saturday PW 179.8 CW 178.4 My scale is jumping. I’m not sure I trust that weight. But I’ll take it! 😁 95519 steps this week. I’ve been eating more. I’m hungrier. I don’t know if that is from the added exercise or not smoking. And I think I weighed less than my actual weight which has been around 180…

@podperson1 maybe change the battery. I know mine is in need of a battery change it is all over the place today.

I might not be losing weight but I’m getting the beginning of abs! I feel good and really it’s not impressive but compared to what it looked like 6 months ago I’m proud of myself.

Hi everyone, I’m Kandi sometimes I spend a ton of time on here, and sometimes Im barely on here. My story with my weight. I’ve always been heavier and I’ve always been pretty strong and healthy. A few years ago someone took a picture of me (something that I didn’t really let happen often because I wasn’t comfortable with…

@sleepymom5 yes I have gastric intestinal issues if I have too much “sugar alcohol”. whatever that is. I do pretty well with fiber one brownies so maybe the fiber balances it out. 🤷‍♀️ @pacsnc6 i think I do have a good attitude. Sometimes I’m too easy on myself. Sugar cravings are pretty par for the course of quitting…

I haven’t been on here much lately even to creeper read, I also haven’t kept up my habit tracker. I am eating more calories which I need to work on. But overall I think I’m doing well. I will definitely be at least showing up to read more and I’ll try to catch up my habit tracker. I do think that helps me stay more…

@sleepymom5 I’m glad you got to spend some quality time with your son. That’s always a blessing. @minstrelofsarcasm I wish one of my vices was exercise, lol. But I’m working on it!!! 😉. Thank you for the baking tip I am going to have to try this!!! I want brownies. Lol. I probably don’t need them so I’ll try that next…

I went off the rails with carbs this weekend. But tomorrow I will be back on track! Yesterday was my nieces bday party and I had ice cream. Which would have been fine if I stopped there. I had way too much Buffalo chicken dip and Tostitos as well. And still didn’t stop there. So I didn’t do well all weekend. 🤷‍♀️ I didn’t…

Well ladies. My weight is fluctuating again. I blame the crackers I keep sneaking in. I know I shouldn’t but they are buttery and salty and well, I Can’t resist. Not sure I actually lost anything last week. My weight is back to bouncing around. I have been hitting the gym 3 days a week and I definitely feel stronger. I…
