  • So so very sorry. I am so late here…like a couple weeks. Please don't bump me out. I know my current weight is 151.2. I think I stated that my boyfriend hurt his foot. We have been back and forth to so many doctors. X-rays, orthopedics, primary care physician…. A diagnosis of a severe sprain, then it went to gout. I've…

  • So Sorry! I'm a couple of days late. In my defense, my boyfriend injured his foot and we have done nothing but go to different doctors to find out what is wrong. Urgent Care said it was sprained. The primary doctor said he didn't think it was broken His foot is HUGE! We had to go for an ultrasound to rule out any blood…

  • Weigh In Day: Tuesday Start Weight: 154.6 Current Weight: 153.6 Up just a bit, but I was overly ambitious when I hit that 2+ pounds last week. This feels more realistic. Steps this week: Tues: 12,429 Wed: 14,091 Thurs: 14,532 Fri: 7,244 Sat: 15,279 Sun: 16,877 Mon: 10,285 Total: 90,737 204,421 left for the month March…
  • Well, I got the yard done and half of the feed barn. I discovered I had a rat in the barn, so I secured all of the feed and set the traps. I got no flowers made, but the HVAC guy showed up to map the house for the new unit. Progress was made. I just didn't exactly meet my goals. My goals today are: [ ] Go to work [ ]…

  • Hello! It's great to be back. This place motivates me more than any other! Life has happened... again! I am sooo ready to get myself in better shape. For my intro here (again): I'm Debra, 52 years old. Mother of 3 - a son, age 30 and twin daughters - age 28. I'm Gigi to 6 wonderful grandchildren ages 5,4,3,3, 1 month, and…
  • IDEBRAK PW: 133 CW: 136.6 Next week's goal: 135.0 I can't lie about it. That death row inmate diet hasn't worked well for me. LOL My grandson's birthday came. We had to go to IHOP. I can't let a 3-year-old down. We ate an obscene amount of gluten-free pancakes. I'm glad these birthdays only happen once a year, though. I'll…
  • PW: 131.4 CW: 133 I have no guilt with the small gain. I had a colonoscopy and ate like a death row inmate afterward. The week-long prep was brutal, and I was starving. The incredibly bland diet left me with only white rice and mushrooms to eat. I typically don't eat white rice, but with my food choices, which were very…
  • IDebraK PW:132.0 CW: 131.4 I'll take a half pound per week. It's still a loss, right? I'm back in the swing of things now. Work is manageable. It's been cooler and rainy the past few days here. I can't get a lot of farm chores accomplished in the rain, so that has to be on hold. I'm off all next week—a much-needed…
  • PW: 132.6 CW: 132.0 I changed my weigh-in day from Sunday to Saturday because I couldn't seem to get my stuff together to post on Sunday. *sigh* Here I am, another Saturday weigh-in on Sunday. Work is going to slow down a bit. The heavy reset season is now over until February. Having a whole entire farm on top of all of…
  • PW: 132.4 CW: 132.6 I feel really good about this. These past 2 months have been HELL... but in a good way. My daughter got married in the middle of August. We had a stressful time pulling everything together. It was worth it, but it was A LOT OF WORK. At work, we have the fall sets. ALL OF THEM. We've built and set…
  • I missed weigh in by an hour and a half... PW: 134.6 CW: 132.4 I knew that sodium in the Mexican food would find it's way out of my system
  • I'm late again. Don't bounce me. I really have to get my life in order. PW: 133 CW: 134.6 Dang Mexican food! It'll take 3 days to get all of this sodium out of my system. My boy had his 29th birthday yesterday. I spent the whole day babysitting his toddlers and then we met for dinner.
  • Greetings September people! I am Debra. I'm 50 years old. I live in Northwest Georgia (USA). It is trying to be fall-like here. This is my favorite time of the year, and I am hardly ever indoors. I work for Tractor Supply as a merchandiser Monday-Thursday. It's 10-hour shifts, and I travel between 12 stores. When I get…
  • Here I am. I missed the Saturday weigh-in, but I am here. PW:134.8 CW: 136.4 My yesterday was filled with a lot of driving. I started my morning with a 40-minute drive to get the truck serviced. I was 1000 miles over, and I drive a lot for work, so I couldn't wait. We have no Hyundai dealer, and no one can get my filter,…
  • So definitely thought I was starving yesterday. I have no idea what all I ate. It's ok. We all have days like that. PW:133.4 (I think) CW: 134.8 The wedding was beautiful! I'll post pictures when she gets them. I didn't take any. I just enjoyed the day and pretty much stayed with the grandbabies so the adults and newly…
  • I'M ON TIME THIS WEEK! .....AND have a loss! PW: 135.4 CW: 133.4 I've been trying to tweak my diet to get the cholesterol lowered, but that vegan gluten-free thing is just not really what I think I am going to do FOREVER. I usually don't make changes unless they are changes that I feel like I can live with for the rest of…
  • I promise that after the next weekend, I'll be back on my game. This wedding is going to be what does me in. This past year has been exhausting, but the past 6-8 months have drained me... mentally and financially. I have no idea whether I am coming or going, but I do know that after August 13th, I will be able to breathe…
  • I'm in a funk. I missed weigh in last week. I stayed in bed all weekend fighting some nausea. This week is nowhere near pretty. PW: 132.6 CW: 137 I have no idea really where that came from. I made good choices. I'm in the middle of a diet change with a really high cholesterol count after my yearly blood work.
  • I'm late....AGAIN! Really, I had the best of intensions yesterday. It was a heavy farm chores day. We've acquired a new goat, built a new chicken kingdom, rotated animals to new kingdoms. OH! And I cut the grass. I use a push mower to keep this body moving. I thought I was going to have a heat stroke at one point. That's…
  • IDebraK Weigh in: Saturday PW: 130.6 CW: 131 Up just a bit. I can manage. I have to really step up my game the next 6 weeks! I hope to be down about 10 pounds. My daughter's wedding is August 13th. While I want to lose the few extra pounds by wedding day, this thing has me stressed out! Work was super stressful this past…
  • I'm thinking these Friday night trips to the Waffle House with my boyfriend after he gets off work are causing the nausea. Fighting it again this morning. IDebraK PW: 130.6 CW: 130.6 No loss. No gain. I'll take it. I wish I would have had the FitBit on at work one day. I walked right out the door and left it on the…
  • IDebraK PW: 130.8 CW: 130.6 Sorry it's late again. I was so nauseated yesterday. We had to go out and shop for flowers for my daughter's wedding in August. I have volunteered to make all of them. We also had to go get bed pillows since the looks on the dogs' faces was like they were just minding their own business and…
  • IDebraK WEIGH IN: Saturday I didn't forget. We took a spontaneous day trip yesterday. I had no service and didn't think to update before we left. PW: 132 CW: 130.8 OH! And then I typed all of this about 7 hours ago, and I just saw that I never hit the "post" button.
  • IDebraK Weigh in: Saturday PW: 136 CW: 132 FINALLY! Going in the right direction! STEPS: Sat: 20,755 Sun: 4,470 Mon: 7,937 Tues: 18,823 Wed: 14,330 Thurs: 18,567 Fri: 9,029 TOTAL: 93,911 I beat my weekly target on steps. Target is 91,000 for a week. If I manage to do that consistently, I'm going to have to raise that bar.…
