A day late weighing in. Our metro area is in day 4 of no safe drinking water. This is very frustrating, as we cannot safely prepare food, wash dishes, brush teeth, bathe, rinse fruit & veg, etc without boiling water. And now the water pressure is falling so even boiling is becoming an issue. Long and short, we are eating…

Well I KNEW that New Year's Eve salty treat infested party had driven my weight up by a couple pounds of water retention, and it showed up in the number on my first weigh in New Year's Day. That water is gone, plus a little (probably legit) weight. Down 4 pounds below first weigh in, but really only down 1 pound from what…

Okay, here we go! First, happy new year to all. May it be a safe, healthy year for you. My name is Mike, I am 65, male, married for almost 43 years to my best friend. I am a health disaster and need to get things back under better discipline if I want to see another 10 years. High BP, high cholesterol, insulin dependent…

LOL My wife for the last 43 years will be very happy to hear that! Wishing success to everyone in the new year!

If y'all are comfortable with a geriatric male joining in, I would like to be a part of this. (If not, that's fine I can move on, I am just looking for a 10-13 week group to kickstart me.) I promise not to make more than one Dad Joke a day. I have lost through other challenges only to regain once I lost my focus. I WANT to…

@quiltingjaine after a long absence and debauched living, I'd like to come in from the cold again. I just wish I had not buried the scale in the back yard.

Okay, official weigh in to start off this year: 236.6 January 8: 236.4 No progress but to be honest we were sweeping the corners on the holiday food this week. Next week will be back to normal for the fridge, and I start walking today. January 15: January 22: January 29: January 29 goal : 229.8 January 29 Weight: Total…

Hi. I'd like to join if 1) it is not too late and 2) no one is uncomfortable with a male in your group. (It's okay if that's an issue, I will move elsewhere. I do not want to be an impediment to anyone else's success.) This is a restart for me. I have not only found all the weight I lost, I found all of its relatives too.…

Hello. Despite your best efforts to escape, I found you all again. LOL I'm Mike. 62, bald, fat, diabetic, 6'0" April start weight 237.4 (down half a pound since yesterday!) April goal: Less than my April starting weight. Okay, if I need a number to shoot for, 231. That would be amazing. June 30 goal: 220. 4/1 237.4

Height: 6' Age: 62 Starting weight: 239.2 (3/2/2022) March goal: less than I started with GW: 220 for starters, maybe by June? 3/02 239.2 3/03 238.0 3/18 237.6 3/24 236.6 3/31 237.9 Not great but reflective of my consistency (or lack thereof.) Will continue next month but with more focus. And fewer excuses.

My name is Mike, I have been an off and on member here for a long time and do well trying to lose weight until I lose my enthusiasm and then I backslide and fade out from the site for a while. Looking for a low key place for accountability and tracking. Diabetic, obese, high blood pressure. Height: 6' Age: 62 Starting…

@dawnbgethealthy Thanks for the welcome! Alas, I am already on HBP meds and insulin, thanks to life choices and laziness. But all choices are exactly what we wanted most at the moment. So while regretting them is a waste of time, we can work to make better ones. When I got married 40 years ago, I was 128 pounds and 6 feet…

Root canal yesterday, can't get the crown done until 10/28. I'll be skin and bones by then. Well, at least I'll be less blubbery…
