Michelle - yes, the contractor let me know several hours in advance that he hadn't been able to reach the plumber so he canceled rather than waiting until the last minute. We'll have to see if the plumber flakes out, again… that will spell this contractors doom, no matter how good the bid is. Goodnight, Ladies - tomorrow…

Hi All; I am a little bummed out, because the first contractor who was supposed to come and bid the job couldn't come because his plumber flaked out. This does not bode well… but, I have rescheduled for next Saturday. Between now and then, I have three other contractors scheduled, and two more on Sunday. Is contractors not…

So, Several hours and a short nap later, I am finally caught up! I couldn't eat all the Tuna Steak - so MFP is scolding me, today. I call it calorie cycling… LOL some days I eat a little, some days, a Lot. it is what it is. Tomorrow I will eat a burger bowl or a monster salad and that will make the calories high. I tried…

Hi All Eating some seared tuna steak and trying to catch up with all of you…. My official weigh in day was Today - I am down ten pounds since 2/22/25. I'll take it! Especially since I find no hardship in eating seared tuna steak on the regular. : ] Also - the Bedroom furniture did remove itself rather quickly and I have my…

Hi Ladies! I have finally gotten the master bedroom furniture emptied out and listed for free on a neighborhood site. Hopefully it will be gone before next weekend. If not, I will have to list it on Facebook - and that will mean ten thousand texts until it is gone. Once that furniture is OUT, I can have some contractors…

Hey Barbara - I have HEARD that a sniff of isopropyl alcohol will cure nausea… I have never tried it, but that was something I heard. The gal who told me told me she just tears open an alcohol wipe and gives it a sniff. Allie - I am so glad that you are out of surgery and back with us. Walk, Forrest, Walk! Pip - keep on…

Lisa - Love those light fixtures… the room looks great. ; ] I am spending today cleaning out the master bedroom so that I can give the furniture in there away - and catching up with y'all when I take a few minutes of break. Happy Birthday to Debbie and Machka! Apologies if I don't get to respond to everyone. I am lucky if…

ALLIE! Thinking good thoughts for an efficient kidney installation. : ] I am down another pound, today - and 1 lb a week is all I can ask, so, yay. Off to clean out the master bedroom so I can give away the huge king-sized furniture. xo Re in TX

OMG - Alfie is ADORABLE! Sorry, Ladies - The storm knocked out the power, so I woke up to flashing alarm clocks and no internet service. I didn't get to work until lunch time… ; / Now, because there was still 8+ hours of work to be done, I am running very late for bed. AND, I am setting a back up alarm on my phone, from…

Hello Ladies! I am diligently tracking my food and so far, the urge for carbs hasn't been overwhelming. I have a bunch of non-sugar sweeteners (Allulose, Monk Fruit and Stevia) and some Almond flour coming from Amazon and I will try my hand at some low carb baking for those times when the sweet tooth starts to ache. Alas,…

Hello, All - ready for a blast from the past? I am back on MFP after an extended absence due to multiple things... First - COVID happened - Second - a High Stress Job - Third, my Hubby's failing health... between all of those, I dropped off the radar, dropped out of my exercise program and basically gained back all the…

Did hard physical work all day long and had calories left for candy... Pre=logged it and everything... Got to drinking my tea and playing my video game... and forgot to eat it. I FORGOT to eat chocolate?!? Did the pod people come for me, or what?
-
I have the flu - so I can't work out with my trainer....and I really can't go out much. But, so far, I haven't used it as an excuse to eat everything in the house and I haven't gained any weight.
-
Well, I made it back to Onderland... finally. Now, my goal is to drop below 195, again. Unfortunately, I have SEVERAL of these mini-goals to break thru before I get back to my old low.

@springlering62 - Bless her heart. You are a miracle, Honey - Not because of what you were - but because of what you ARE. Hugs!

A gym isn't a requirement - a lot of people do just fine with walking as exercise. The trick is to get up off the couch for a while, every day. Do SOMETHING for 30-60 minutes a day that involves body movement - walking, house cleaning, dancing - whatever. Just move. If you work up a sweat, so much the better. The bulk of…

I spent most of my life over 300 lbs - way over for a lot of it. So, I was quite accustomed to being heavy and working my way through the world. I always had a fairly good level of confidence. But, when my clothing size dropped to something like 22 it was like I appeared out of thin air. Suddenly, people held doors, made…

The community is the best part! Glad you have found it, and great work on maintaining!

Give it time. whatever might be looser than you would like, now, should tighten up a bit over time. I might take as much as a year or more to do it, so don't be too discouraged. Looks like you have the advantage of youth - so, your likelihood for skin tightening is pretty good.

Rightfully proud! Go Quik!

I am shaped like a diamond. Tiny ankles and wrists - visible collar bones - Big round belly and butt. *sigh* Eventually, the belly will go away. I am focussing on glutes to try and maintain the booty, while losing the belly in the front. Thankfully, I still have some womanly attributes - so I am hoping for an hourglass…

My Boss/Friend noticed before I did... lol. My hubby was in a wheelchair after a surgery - and I had gotten more than the normal amount of exercise over the prior few months. She asked me if I was losing weight and my response was "not on purpose." Went to the doc for my annual physical shortly after that and discovered I…

Flexibility happens over time - try to be patient with yourself. Good luck!

I feel you on the "I'll just get back to what worked" thought and then the failure to really do it. I don't know if it's burnout, or complacency, or what - but, I can barely force myself to behave for any extended period of time, these days. I am still exercising - thank goodness it's become a habit for me - so at least…

I have a goal Clothing Size - 6. Not sure if that will be the final goal - but that's the initial one. The number on the scale is so random - it changes from one day to the next and is heavily impacted by lean muscle mass, so - size six could weight 140 or 165... definitely a size.

Hey, that bar weighs 45 pounds - I was totally stoked when I was able to bench the bar without assistance! I still only bench the bar + 10... Working on that upper body strength! You GO, girl!

When you get on an airplane and they are giving you the safety spiel - what do they always say? PUT YOUR OWN OXYGEN MASK ON FIRST. You can't be there for anyone else if you fail to save yoursefl. It took me a LOTof years to learn this lesson... try to do better than I did. Hugs!

Honestly, it's been a REALLY long time since I was 360 - like 15 years - but I can't remember thinking there was any huge difference in the kind of bra I am wearing. I have always favored not a lot of padding - never needed any - and I still go for stretch lace and underwire for daily wear. I just know in the smaller band…

*balancing on one foot* Hey Guys... 76 lbs since I arrived at MFP... 183 lbs since my heaviest - many moons ago.

My response would have been "No, the exercise will undo the donut. That's why we WALKED here."
