Love avocado, even before I knew it was supposed to "healthy"! Glad it seemed to help your inflamation, @88olds . Win-win (if you like the taste)--and I think I remember that you do.

Good morning GOADies. I suppose rain is better suited to VA than snow, eh @cakeman21k ?

Hmmm, good question. I don't know that I would have joined under that campaign. Likely not. I'd had some exposure to MFP prior to joining WW so I knew there were options. In hindsight, I didn't know of the other benefits / NSVs that awaited me with weight loss so from where I stand now, I probably would have been on-board…

Ding!

Do you plan all meals or just dinner or not all? How important is it for you to plan your meals out? What works for you? There's a few different dimensions related to this concept for me, especially as it compares with my pre-WW life and "plan". Pre-WW, there was really no plan. I was a frequent flyer eating and drinking…

I think it's harder to sustain with a handful of participants but still serves as a source of knowledge and support for me. To be honest, I much prefer to spend time on one of my photography sites if I'm on the internet. Weight loss is important to me, but moreso as a means to a better quality of life than the sole purpose…

Light snow here this morning. No complaints.

1. Do you have any planning tools you'd like to share? that may have helped you currently in the past or that you might be wanting to implement? My partner and I do some level of meal planning for most of the meals during the week. Doing so makes her shopping trip more efficient and effective and helps to keep me on my…

Good Morning! Right?

Made it through the weekend without going off the rails!

IF you need to change, WHAT are you going to change? Activity. I was on a good routine for a while and am making a point to get back on the path. It was working well for me--and the dog. I need to make it a priority and squeeze it in most days.

Here--and walked a few miles today. Not part of a New Year's thing. Just because...

Best to you, John! Thinking positive thoughts that all goes well! Monday What Day Is It? will have special significance...

WTG, @mr_sandyman ! Hope this year's a good one for you and yours.

Good for you all! You got on the scale, faced the music and made it through another day. Don't sweat that pound, Emmie--you know what to do!

You got that right!

Thanks @steve0mania . One of my running friends really stressed that point too--along with investing in proper / good running shoes. They also recommended not being afraid to take my time with the training, even if it meant repeating a / a series of the daily assignments. I have no aspirations of becoming "a runner" but I…

My question for you is do you have the right tools to accomplish your goals? So do you what you need? Or is there something else that you need to add to your toolbelt to help improve your chance of success? I think for the most part, I have (or will have) the right tools to accomplish what I hope to in 2019. My primary…

Hats off, Steve! Congratulations on making a healthier you a priority for a decade now! I'd say "good luck", but we know luck really has nothing to do with it. Here's to a healthy new year, though!

Steve, good for you! I missed my C25K goal in 2018, but am committed to it again this year. Do you have any tips to share?

Wow--I forgot things I should have remembered and remembered things I should have forgotten! I might be able to blame it on the coffee. Otherwise I guess I have to chalk it up to a being a year older...

Is it a National Day of Sleep today??

What did you do yesterday that will serve you well from a weight management perspective for the remainder of 2019? I had a little weight creep the last couple weeks of 2018--no real surprise except there wasn't any major foodfests--truly a cumulative effects kind of thing I guess. So, I've been even more mindful of what I…

Each day is a new decision. I think we've all known or read about the people who swear their lost weight is "gone forever", but somehow they found it again. No such proclamation from me. I don't want to eat my words... B)

Or Tuesday...off to a good start, aren't I?

Santa will remember that next (oh wait--this--year, @podkey !)

I joined in 2014. I haven't left yet...

1. Is there anything you would like to share in sumation of your 2018 that may or maynot your have effected your 2018 Lifestyle Weight Journey? 2. Are you glad 2018 is behind you? and are you looking forward to a healthy 2019? 1. 2018 was another year of maintenance for me. Lots of ups and downs but nothing drastic. My…

Thanks Emmie ( @whathapnd ) - the new year snuck up on me!

Good morning gang! Let’s start the new year on a good foot, eh!
