Hi -Sorry I am late with week 4 WI - gained a pound this week - ugh! On a good note I started swimming again for the first time in a year (due to shoulder injury). It is the only exercise I truly love! Hopefully October will be better for weigh ins! PW 163.4 CW 164.6

Hi - WI day again. PW 164.7 CW 163.4 I am back at home and getting back on track....still not great with journaling but getting in my half hour walking on the treadmill so that is a start.

Hi All- i have been in the UK this week visiting my new granddaughter <3 - I don’t have access to a scale so no WI this week! I got you excused this week ... Have a great time with your new granddaughter :)

Hi all- it’s been a difficult week! I did ok - had a loss but did not meet my daily goals! PW: 167.7 CW: 164.7

WI: monday 9/2 starting weight- 167.7 PW: 167.7 CW: 167.7 They are the same as I just began yesterday. Had a fairly good day but a bit under the weather! stayed within my calories no exercise though.

Hi All, My name is Loren and I am new to the group. I am 62 years old - I have three grown and married kids and I just had my first grand daughter. I have a business but I am semi retired and work two days a week. Luckily I have a good manager. I have been on MFP before with varied success but it has been quite awhile. In…

Great Thank you for the clarification!

Good Morning Not sure my post went through last night. PW 175 CW 175.3 I am unclear as to this is where to post my weights...can someone confirm? Thanks~Hopfully next week will be more successful!

Tues WI PW:175 CW: 175.3 arrgh! Next week will be better!

Hi All, WI day PW: 178 CW: 175 I am so relieved to be back on track!

Hi all, My WI day will be Tuesday. My highest weight was 190 but I literally had from size 6 to 20 in my closet at one point. Ive been fairly steady in the 170's for years with my lowest point being 145 about 10 years ago! So, that is my goal once again. I am 61 and my metabolism (which has never been great) has definitely…

Starting weight 178 on 9/4 Hi All, I thought I had posted but couldnt find it so maybe I did not hit enter! I have been struggling with getting back on track and I am really hopeful this does the trick. I have had much success with MFP in the past. I will try to post every day to keep myself focused. My daily calorie goal…

Hi - I am joining this group late and know that it is recommended to wait till June but I need accountability now! I am really having trouble focusing on losing weight and I have so much weight to lose! My knees hurt, I have no energy and feel just plain heavy. I keep starting and stopping weight loss plans - I need to…

Hi All, Im Loren and I live in NY. I am 61. My end goal is to end up at 140. I have a long way to go. I like this challenge because it gives me a goal to strive for. I have just begun exercising again after a long hiatus. I've done MFP successfully in the past but again it has been a while. CW: 177 GW for this…

Good Morning All, Hope everyone is well. Katla, we moved to Florida a large property in NY two years ago and I have never cried so much in my life. I have been horribly depressed, selling the home I raised my kids in. To top it off, I hate living here. We just decided to move back to NY and are house looking. I feel like a…

Good Morning All, Thanks for the kind words yesterday. I am feeling a bit hopeful today. I lost one pound which I realize is more about water than anything else but I was happy to see a different number. I know the number should not have such importance but I am a master of rationalizing tight clothes, image in the mirror…

Thanks Rebecca! I will take your advice to heart!

Hi All, I have been battling with weight for over thirty years! I recently tried to "normalize" my eating instead of yo-yo dieting. Clearly, since I am back on MFP, it did not work. I have just crossed over the dreaded 180 mark which I swore I would never do again! My knees hurt, I get out of breath at the tiniest bit of…

Thanks for posting this. What is amazing is that you lost less than 1lb a week and totally transformed! I get discouraged if I only lose a lb thinking it is too slow and then give up! I would love to lose 45 lbs and look transformed next year at this time! I am starting about the same weight you were at and am at my best…

Hi All, New to this group. I just cant seem to get on track...the last time I started MFP I lasted one day! It is ridiculous. I want to focus on meeting my goals for each day and not the number on the scale. I WI every day which for me makes the days number take on less import. When I WI once a week, if the number is not…

Exercised: Yes Calories: Yes Logged: Yes!

Hi - Not sure if it is too late - we were away for a few days. WI - same as last week :( Oh well :(

HI All, Having a bit of trouble staying on track. I was down to 167.8 two days ago but one dinner out and back up to 170. Ugh. I literally had half a salad and half a side order of pasta and one piece of bread. Well, wine as well. But really 2 lbs for that? It is ridiculous!! PW: 171 WI: 170

HI All, Not sure why I am up this week but I am..I have had a bunch of salty food so I think that is why (fingers crossed)! WI for Oct wk 1: 171

Sunday 9/26 PW: 170.3 CW: 168.8

Sunday 9/19 PW: 171.1 CW: 170.3

Hi - Sorry I cant weigh in this week as we are away! Will be back for the next!

Sunday 9/5 PW: 172.1 CW: 171.1

Sunday Week 1 PW: 173 CW: 172.1 Not as much as I was hoping for but hopefully next week will be more!

HI All, I am back in this challenge after a couple of months off...it seems that it really, really helps as I have gained a bit while off. Somehow it keeps me focused! Looking forward to a good loss this month!
