SW 8/26/21 - 214.0 lbs CW 5/3/22 - 155.6 lbs GW ? - 150.0 lbs or lower Hanging in there! My back is still sore from Saturday's mega dance party! I wanted to walk yesterday, but it was raining and I might melt. Will try today. So in the theme of Spring Into A New You, I did something last night. I've always wanted one. I…

SW 8/26/21 - 214.0 lbs CW 5/2/22 - 155.4 lbs GW ? - 150.0 lbs or lower Lost 1.4 lbs! I did not do ANYTHING yesterday. I was so tired from the night before, my legs, hips, lower back, upper back were so sore! Today's a little better. I will try going for a walk either at lunch time or after work. Have a great Monday!!

SW 8/26/21 - 214.0 lbs CW 5/1/22 - 157.0 lbs GW ? - 150.0 lbs or lower Happy May 1st everyone! Every month my main focus is to start moving more. I danced my tush off last night! Went 18,376 steps according to my Fitbit! It was so much fun! There is a kick boxing gym near by and I went for a free class in March 2020. I was…

4/30 - 157 Slight uptick, but nothing I can't handle! Last day of the month. Last day of March I was at 167, so a good solid 10 pound loss for April! Not bad! I will take it with a smile! Today is going to be a bit busy. I've already been grocery shopping, so I am set for the week. In a half hour, I go to get my oil…

4/29 - 156.8 A BIG drop! Almost 3 pounds! But yesterday, I was having stomach problems and couldn't eat. I only had a yoghurt for breakfast. So the loss is not surprising. I'm going to try to be extra good today so I don't go back up a lot. I'm expecting a gain tomorrow, especially if I eat. My stomach still isn't feeling…

4/28 - 159.6 Back down! I hope they fix the diary portion soon. I tried to enter a food yesterday and it wouldn't let me. So I just entered something that was close to what I had and just monitored my calories. I am pretty sure my carbs were good. Happy Friday's Eve!!!

4/27 - 161.4 Well, yesterday led to a refeed day. I slept better than I have in weeks! Back to it today. Line dance class tonight. Have a great Wednesday!

Our bodies like to play jokes on us, me thinks! LOL! I am sitting here feeling all bloated as hell, and being so glad I don't weigh in the middle of the day! My stomach was shouting at me all morning, so finally gave in at 8 and had breakfast. I usually wait until 9 or later if I can. Skipping lunch because I feel like I…

4/26 - 159.4 Here we go! I sure hope I don't get sick on this ride! All the ups and downs make my tummy sad. :( LOL...have a great Tuesday! KCKO!

Oh how fun! Enjoy yourself! It's only a week. You can't gain a lot of fat in a week. Water weight maybe, but not fat. So enjoy. Then put it all in when you return!

That is great! I've no doubt you will make your next goal! Keto is awesome! KCKO!

4/25 - 160.0 Looks like I will be hanging out here at 160 for now. At least it's better than 165! Have a great Monday! Where is everyone?! Probably busy having a life! LOL!

4/24 - 160.0 Back up again! At least I know it's possible to get below 160! Happy Sunday!

April 3 – 167.2 April 10 – 165.4 April 17 – 165.2 April 24 – 160.0

4/23 - 159.4 Baby! Finally!!! Under 160! Still so close that I know I will most likely slip back over, but I made it! Went line dancing last night, and according to my Fitbit, I did 11,726 steps! I also had 2 slices of pizza and 3 glasses of wine! So I probably could have lost more maybe? But I'm happy with being under.…

4/22 - 160.0 New low. I see how it is. Lose a bit, gain a bit, lose a bit, etc. LOL! Right before the numbers settled on 160.0, I did see 159 in there! Which gave me hope only to be dashed all to he-double-hockeysticks! But it's all good. I am walking almost everyday. I haven't made it to a full hour yet, but that is my…

4/21 - 161.4 Back up. At least it's only a pound and not four! But I am ready to be under 160! C'mon!! I know, I know...KCKO. Have a good Friday's Eve!

@tishsmith101 That's awesome! It feels good not to have to wear xl now! I still buy large tops because I like my clothes loose. But my size 10 jeans are getting big! We still have a lot out of power up here. Warrensburg and Ticonderoga areas are still really bad. My friend that lives in Schroon Lake finally got power back…

I rarely use the database anymore. I just input my own values so I know it's correct. If I'm in a hurry, I will use the database, but I really try not to.

4/20 - 160.4 New low for me! 10 more pounds and I'll be at goal! Of course I think it will take me at least 2 1/2 months to get there! But from the beginning of April to now, my weight was playing games with me! In the past, I would have caved and eaten a whole box of Kraft Mac & Cheese or something similar. This time I…

I felt the same way. I came to MFP and logged food, but didn't feel much like posting. Today is a new day. And if not, then tomorrow is a new day! Apply, rinse, repeat until it feels good. Hugs!

Finally! A new low! 161.4!!! After all month of hanging around 165 and up, finally get the Whoosh! I was getting pretty discouraged. I went for a 45 minute walk yesterday after work, it was so nice out! Today what do I wake up to? SNOW!!! BOOO! I hope this is the last of this silly white stuff we see until December! Does…

Right here! There are a ton of articles/threads about Keto right in this group. Or just ask what you want to know.

April 3 – 167.2 April 10 – 165.4 April 17 – 165.2 - April has pretty much sucked in terms of weighloss. April 24 –

Made a 25 minute walk today. Tried to make it a full 30, but my legs started giving out! I lost a pound from yesterday, so back on the downward trend. Here's hoping it continues. The weather is finally turning nice so I will make it a priority to walk at least 20 minutes during lunch. Tonight they are having line dancing…

That's probably it. Which makes me sad because I want to someday enjoy carbs, just not go overboard like I've done in the past which landed me here. I did go for a nice 20 minute walk at lunchtime around the perimeter of my office building. It was so nice! I hope this weekend is nice too, I want to try some of the easier…

I need to reassess. I am back up again. Since I've donated all my bigger jeans, I really don't want to have to buy a pair that are bigger. The ones I have now are really too tight. I can zip and fasten them, but forget about breathing! LOL...not quite that bad...yet! I have been laxed about eating low carb these days. But…

I'm a diabetic, was on Metformin for 3 years. My A1c was 7.2 on Oct 6, 2021. On Jan 6, 2022, it was 5.3. I started at 214 lbs, size 22. Today I am at 165 and in size 10 which are getting big on me already. I no longer take Metformin nor blood pressure medicines. It can happen, but you have to do the work. Good luck!

Hugs! I bet it's just the salt from the nuts and chicken nugs that put your weight up! Drunk munchies! I can relate! This weekend, a few of my relatives and I went out and had one on our aunt. Her drink of choice was Captain & Coke. I had Diet Coke of course, but yeah...too many. I'm going up and down, so just…

Looks like we've lost the OP, but I agree with others. I don't typically eat breakfast either, but lunch is my biggest meal of the day. I eat dinner early, like around 4pm, and just try to fit in what I need to sustain myself until bedtime, and I'm good for the rest of the day. If you are constantly finding you need to eat…
