Username:AustinRuadhain Weigh in week: Week 1 Weigh in day: Monday PW: 210.5 CW: 213.5 Ack. I'm sorry. I can only promise to do better this month. It was food. I didn't wildly overeat, but I ate sweets, and I cannot do that. I am so glad to be turning over a new page today. I am sorry to have been quiet! I had decided I…

@trooworld - I like your movement challenge! @sleepygirl79 - Yep -- back to work! You got this! @txcritter69 - You sound like a tomato whisperer! Or maybe it was the inside time. My tomato plants have never made it that long. @19shmoo69 - Nice loss! @micaroo4 - Good for you and your outdoor adventure, even if yo did get…

My new ambition: https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/wellness/story/75-year-woman-lost-60-pounds-fitness-influencer-82655773 (2023 story, but I just came across it.) I am reminded that I need to make a goals board. It would help to have pictures in mind.

Daily Check-In 🟢 kitchen pushups/squats 🟢 morning walk 🟢 45 minute exercise - went bicycling! 🟢 measure & log all food 🟢 nutritarian food plan (ate plants) 🟢 Met calorie goal (not too much) I went for a 60-minute bicycle ride. Well, sort of. I had the bike with me the whole time, but I walked up a couple of hills on the…

Quick check-in on my day* I kept food to my losing weight calorie goal. * I made good food choices. No salad for dinner, but I grabbed a smoothie at a place that has one that is veggies and protein powder, no bananas or sugar. * I got in two movement sessions: 1 long morning walk and a midday bike ride. The bike weas a big…

@lislisa123 - I did not know about Joey and "How you doing?" I looked it up, and laughed! @AmbersWay - Hurray for staying close to steady1 I hope the dust settles soon! @gemwolf110 - What a good day! @Veta2018 - I had to laugh about the elliptical that you called a coatrack. Your puppy looks pleased. Perhaps watching you…

Username: AustinRuadhain Weigh in week: Week 1 Weigh in day: Monday PW: 215.2 CW: 215.4 :disappointed: Okay, so what I did last week was not quite enough to get the number to go down. I'll adjust. The big things I will try this week are less fruit and not eating back exercise calories.

@laurelfit57 , @sleepygirl79 - Hurray for the loss! 🎉 @Katmary71 - Thank you for the Ab Challenge! I am going to give this a try (though the numbers at end of month are more than a little intimidating). @txcritter69 - "Taking the scale with me." I am impressed! 🎖 @Veta2018 - Your loss since September is impressive, as is…

Good morning! @19shmoo69 - Good morning! Thank you for the ice breaker questions! Your recent one had me think mf my first date with my husband, which was a treat! @trooworld - I am writing from a page pulled up from a saved set of tabs! The Edge browser does that, too. Hurray for the migraine going away. I am sorry to…

Hello, all! I let life get in the way there for a bit. I am back on MFP and was delighted to this group going. If y'all don't mind a new/old face, I'll hop in!

Hello all! Austin here. I am here for a new month! My weigh-in days are Mondays. My highest weight: 265 lbs My current weight: 215.2 lbs My goal for June: 210 (I love a round number) My long-term goal: 115 Food is always my biggest challenge. I'll be logging food and tracking on/off plan. June Movement Goals Walking in…

Humorous Date Story It took two tries for my husband to ask me out. We still laugh over this. I was assisting in a communication course he was in, and a mutual friend had suggested we look each other up. He came and found me on a break, introduced himself, said that friend had said I was really athletic. He said that he…

@trooworld Getting back on track then! My Monday May 27 weight, to start out in June, was 215.2 Plans for today: ⚪ 45-minute outdoor walk (should be fun! it's rainy today) ⚪ bonus movement (stair-stepping?) ⚪ Food on plan for lunch (beans & steamed greens) ⚪ Food on plan for dinner (big salad) ⚪ Decluttering project: at…

AustinRuadhain here. I apologize for going quiet. I got overwhelmed by end of semester and life, and embarrassed by an upward weight bounce. (How? How can I gain weight so much faster than I lose it? Ah, well, I can.) Anyway, I'd be grateful for the conversation, the support and the chance to refocus in June.

Welp, I had a busy week, with end of semesters and hosting two parties. Low on exercise and high on aa bunch of the wrong foods for me. Welp. Back to work! Hurray for having a group that's here for the long haul. (Maybe some is salt? Whatever!) Monday Weigh-in @Katmary71 AustinRuadhain SW 223.1 PW: 208.3 CW: 212.1 Today…

I apologize for keeping you waiting! It has been a crazy day, and I was determined to get this to you today! Monday Weigh-in AustinRuadhain SW 223.1 PW: 209.2 CW: 208.3

Hi there! I have to not fall behind. It's fun and easy enough to read posts if I read them 1-2 times a day, but if I get behind, I get lost. All this to say, I have not yet found the post where @trooworld talked about Dr Fuhrman?! I'd be excited for any company on that journey. Dr. F's plan is the one that works well for…

Monday Weigh-In Monday Weigh-in AustinRuadhain SW 223.1 PW: 209.9 CW: 209.2 @vegan4lyfe2012 - Oh, I am so, so sorry. Work and family both this week. I am afraid to ask if your coworker apologized. Ugh. You and your daughter are in my thoughts and prayers. I am glad Hunter's getting out of a bad situation, but that all…

Thursday Ice breaker question What is a food combination people eat or drink that you just can’t get behind? (For example, dipping french fries in Frosties.) I had to go look up what on earth Frosties was, in this context. Imagine my surprise! Anything involving mayonnaise (or the kind of white "salad dressing" that comes…

What a great article! I especially appreciate that last step, Look for Trends: "After you’ve been tracking for at least two weeks, go back and look at your data. Can you find any trends?" @AmbersWay - I am sending you all the best in your goals of logging calories, and fighting the carb cravings. Maybe the food logging…
