Congratulations on your masters degree and another for having a keto partner. It has been a year since your post, how are you doing?

Started tracking seriously again today. I'd fallen back into my bad habit of under-eating. Last year I lost 30# by making certain I actually ate enough. I need to remember to eat the fuel my body needs.

In 2017 I lost an average of half a pound a week for the entire year and am still keeping at it. Eating enough is working for me. I have kept to my counts and made myself not drop below 1200calories on any day. Most days I keep around 1600-1700. On rare occasions I go over 2000. I also admit to being an exercise junkie as…

I'm trying for slow and forever weight loss this time around. 2017 I achieved half a pound a week average for the year and I'm keeping it up, or is that down? I'm giving myself five years to get where I get and then I'll set a final goal.

Reading everyone's responses on this thread has been helpful. It was really nice to see others slightly shocked and all the encouragement. I think it might have been my original post that janejellyroll referred to.

I've got over 100 pounds to lose and am trying to loose a pound a month minimum, preferably a few pounds a month. Feel free to send me a private message if you are looking for friends.

I would loose maybe 10 pounds while my sister and brother became really thin, and then I'd gain it all back plus more weight during the school year. I had been…

The self care I am working on developing good habits about is resting when I need to. I have MS and accepting the limitations of MS fatigue is challenging. Plus, I suspect that being overly tired possibly triggers my grand mal epileptic seizures. This thread just sounded like what I really needed to read today. Thank you…

Hi, I've been on and off here for a few months now. I'm down 9 pounds eating twice as much food as I ate before tracking here. Apparently eating more is actually working for me. I have also had problems with the MyBlog as my friends do not appear to be able to read them. Any clue on how to get those to be visible to…

I definitely want to make more friends in the over 50 range. We can definitely make a difference in keeping each other motivated. I'm taking the slow and permanent attitude. I plan to make it to my goal and would like to help you reach yours. It may be ten years to get there, but I will get there, Care to travel the road…

Check with your doctor for an OK on these and any exercise ideas: 1. Yoga for MS is a modified, very gentle yoga that has helped me a lot with pain, mobility and balance. There is a person you can search on the internet "Yoga Chuck" who has short workouts. 2. Water walking is another really safe workout, provided your…

Bev, I eat six meals a day to get in enough calories. Most days I have some left, but I'm now over the 1200 absolute minimum for basic body maintenance. It still feels crazy that I have lost 9 pounds eating twice as much food I was previously.
