@deepwoodslady Sending hugs your way.

Love the sculptures, Ann! People are so creative. I'm struggling. After my trip in May, I've had a hard time getting back on track. My exercise routine is finally good, but my eating is still off. My low weight was 188 on April 12th. When I look back, I was bouncing between 188-192 from mid-March until I left on vacation.…

Happy belated Canada Day and Happy 4th of July! I can't believe we are in July already. On Friday, I headed out with friends to the Cherry Creek Arts Festival in Denver. What a treat! It was a fabulous day to enjoy the creativity of several hundred artists, such a joy to spend time with good friends admiring the art and a…

@coblujay 6/22- 194.4 6/29- 193.4 Sorry Jessica. My schedule has been really full lately. I'm keeping up on exercise, eating better and drinking lots of water...getting my head back into the health game.

Sorry, everyone. Kind of MIA lately. I'm starting a new business and I have an extremely heavy workload right now and over the next month or two. Excited and tired, but plugging away. I haven't read through the posts, but I'll work to get caught up over the weekend. While I'm busy, exercise is still a priority, so I'll…

Happy Saturday! After my vacation, it's been tough to get back on track with eating and exercise. Finally, in the last week I'm back hiking and swimming. I had to laugh after swimming a mile in the pool at a new best time of 65 minutes. It's a new pool since the one in my neighborhood closed for the summer because of lack…

@Oregon_Momma Oh no! Sending hugs and prayers your way. It's so hard when our little ones get sick.

Welcome to all our newbies! This is an amazing group of people to surround yourself with. I know. It's made a difference for me. Age: 63 5’5” SW: 264.1 (5/11/21) CW: 193.0 (6/15/22) UGW: 160 End of 10 day challenge goal: 191.0 Drink 64+ oz water a day Swim, Circuit, Hike (4x week)

@PatriceFitnessPal Thanks Patrice. I appreciate the encouragement. :)

@coblujay Wednesday weigh-in PW- 193 CW- 193 Thankful to be posting the same weight. I've been disgusted with myself as I've struggled to get back on plan. I binged over the weekend, but at least got in a 4.5 mile hike. I'm doing one day at at time and plan to keep showing up.

Just received an infusion of inspiration from catching up on all your posts! I'm still struggling after getting back from vacation. I think a lot of it is I'm really busy and more stressed than usual. My local pool closed because they couldn't staff enough lifeguards. I found another pool further away, but with longer lap…

@SheilaBoneham Congratulations to you and Rory, Sheila! He's gorgeous and to accomplish all those things at 11 months old? You are an amazing trainer and he's a smart pup!!

Wednesday weigh-in @coblujay PW- 193.8 CW- 193 Finally feeling a bit more in control, which is a relief. I'm not 100% on track, but not quite so scared about completely falling off the wagon. I'm five pounds above my low weight which I recorded on April 12th at 188. My sister and I are back to hiking on Sundays, which is…

@lisamurfin Welcome, Lisa, and happy birthday. This is a great place and will be really helpful. I honestly never thought I'd lose more than a few pounds. Here I am a year later and 70 pounds down.

You've got this @camandjarvis Thanks @ashleycarole86 @goodhealthbestlife Someone early on told me they use the notes app on their computer/phone to add entries and then cut and paste it into MFP. That's worked really well for me and allows me one place to look back and see my progress.

Thanks @musicsax and @KayHBE I feel the mind shift today and have been out with my dogs on a long walk already. Time to get to my to do list and get lots of things done.

70 pounds down...30+ pounds to go. First photo, July 2021, second photo, yesterday.

Yesterday, my sister and I hiked a trail we haven't done since last year. The very first time we first did it, I had to stop so many times to catch my breath and it took us almost two hours. Yesterday, despite not hiking since last fall, I never had to stop and we set our benchmark time for this year at one hour and twenty…
