@leonadixon 🎉 Woohoo! Hurray to being back on track! Great weigh-in! @TwistedSassette 🎶Awww, I love imaging that little boy voice. My former little boy now has a young man's voice. It was an adjustment! I keep being inspired by your green/yellow bar chart. I may tackle something like that. So motivating and fun!…

Hi there! I have not forgotten you guys, but I have been having technical difficulties yesterday and today. And phew, I am about to go to bed. I'll catch up on messages in the morning, if technology cooperates. I am having faith that all is now ironed out. Today was so-so -- calories in the green, but short on exercise.…

Good morning, all! I got in a great walking meditation session this morning. If anyone else is interested in that kind of thing, I am a fan of the Plum Village app. It's free (donations requested but optional) and includes pieces by Thich Nhat Hanh. I did pretty well yesterday, but ended up skipping my salad as the evening…

@trooworld 🥳Congratulations on seeing that number on the scale! I am crossing my fingers that the scale cooperates, but either way, you are headed into new territory! That is so great! @eahrenee @trooworld 🥾I, too, love hiking. Even an outdoor urban walk is lovely. I was just checking to see if my favorite state park has…

Oh, definitely use for all, if you think it would be fun! Here's a nice article, if you think people want ideas. I found it looking for a good graphic (and like the picture). https://www.health.harvard.edu/heart-health/small-diet-tweaks-can-help-your-heart-and-overall-health Also:…

Hmm. You could make another spring cleaning challenge -- what's one healthy food swap you want to make this week?
-
Hello, @Katmary71 ! I think so many times we think people have the perfect life but usually they're struggling like the rest of us. A big yes to this. I think you and @TeresaW1020 are so right about this. Your saga about medical referrals -- just ugh. Yay to the snap peas and the carrots! Yay to the workouts! You are so SO…

Happy Sunday, Slimsters! Congratulations to everyone who was in the green last week, and helped put Slimpossibles on the leaderboard for pounds lost! @eahrenee @Dignow96 and @digger61 - special congratulations to you for being top 3 losers this week! @bmotisko @Digger61 @itsmegina @Cornanda @davidji82 Great weigh-ins!…

Happy Sunday, all! I stayed on the food plan yesterday. I got in an hour of bicycling with my husband, which was lovely. So far so good on my Dr F plan today: B - coffee, cashew milk, apple L - steamed spinach with white beans, red onions, chopped tomatoes and green chiles; steamed zucchini, mushrooms, carrots, broccoli…
-
@Mihani Wow to those cooking classes you got to take. That sounds inspiring! I hope you are muddling through tax time okay. Hello, @syrr ! Welcome! Have fun making yo0ur plans for next week! And Forks Over knives is indeed inspiring! It's great that you have a doctor that actually suggests plant-based eating. Mine was…
-
@Jactop WooHOO! Great weigh-in! It seems like just a little bit ago that you were trying to break into Onederland, and here you are sneaking up on the 180's! @GabiV125 You are doing so great! My husband had a similar experience -- no weight problem until his mid 30s, and then suddenly, boom, all the things he had been…

@trooworld Good for you for interrupting that tailspin. Upset happens but does does CHANGE! You so often inspire me with your posts, as you are so great about interrupting things like that, and shifting a new perspective. Declaring the breakdown with the family upset and moving on is impressive. @TeresaW1020 I too think…

Username: AustinRuadhain Weigh In Day: Mondays SW (2018): 265.2 CW: 143.7 PW: 142.2 GW: 135 I started behaving well the second half of the week, but too little too late for a loss. I am out to help with that Green Challenge this week! As @Cornanda says, I am not letting the scale number from this morning throw me off.…

Happy Monday, plant-based friends! No idea if this will be a motivating name for our March thread, but I gave it a shot! I am currently listening to an audiobook that has me thinking about my life and the choices I make: Designing Your Life by Bill Burnett & Dave Evans I have been doing well at cleaning up my eating the…

Good morning afternoon, Slimpossibles! (I keep getting interrupted today!) So I am super excited about this month's first challenge. (Thanks @jugar and @micki48 !) I picked my 3 things and will be checking in each day on the challenge thread. Maybe I'll see some of you there, too!…

Howdy, all! I am still noshing too much on comfort food, but staying plant-based except for a couple of Girl Scout cookies. NOT part of my usual diet. Getting back to normal after I head to the grocery store late today and build a new food plan around what I can get. I did make an awesome vegan chili -- or bean stew, as my…

More general check-in... I am SO sorry to have been quiet. I had ambitions of being a goof plant-based partner this week, and well, I live in Texas, and have been offline due to the lack of electrical power and internet. I am super happy to check in with you! Rambly update follows. Feel free to skip! TL;DR Austin is fine,…
-
Howdy! Nice to meet you! Tell us a little about yourself, and what you are doing in terms of plant-based eating? I am mostly eating as per Dr Joel Fuhrman's Eat to Live, though I am having a few days run here where I can;t do that as well as usual. I am managing vegan, for the most part (had a bit of chocolate) and will be…

Hello, Slimpossibles! Is it Friday??? I am SO sorry to have been quiet. I live in Texas, and have been offline due to the lack of electrical power and internet. Rambly update follows. Feel free to skip! TL;DR Austin is fine, but was offline due to infrastructure failures in her usually nice neighborhood. I need to work on…

Wow! Congratulations to @mlhopp93 , @Firefly743 and @anido1 for being on the leaderboard! And hooray to everyone on the team for working on health and fitness goals this week! @raleighgirl09 I am not going to use the word torrent in a sentence to see if I get flagged too. What an odd word to have on their watch list! Also,…

Good evening, Slimsters! It has been a bit of a wild day. The power went out last night. We did get it back today, but not in time for a morning check-in for me. Fun mental picture for you -- my son has a tropical bird as a pet. I got up early this morning to check on her, and ended up with a bird cuddled between two…
-
Howdy, Slimsters! I have had an okay day. I got the blues a bit, as we had an ice storm. My two favorite trees on our property (bad planning on my part?) are two old cedars, and we lost big chunks of both to the weight of the ice on the needles. Things could be worse, though, as much of our neighborhood is without power…

Howdy, Slimsters! Beck Diet Check-in DAY 11: Monitor Your Hunger What was I thinking? This is too many checkins for me. Four checkins per meal was more than I could manage today. I did pay more attention, and that was helpful. DAY 12: Practice Hunger Tolerance I have been playing with extending my fasting window for a…

Quick Check-in I am not done with my day, but I am gunning to rack up a couple more green checkmarks on the Habit Tracker. After over 4 hours of Zoom meetings today, meeting and class prep, and feeding the family, I am ready for bedtime in the worst way! Good thing I gave myself one day off from working out, as that will…
-
@Katmary71 Please know that there's always room for you just to check in and say hello. As you say, it's great to confront that "all or nothing" mindset (I so do this, too) and then... just say hi. I think that "keep moving and do better each day" sounds like a great goal, given all that is going on. We all pick the goal…

Congratulations, team! We had a great week! Special congrats to @digger61, @TwistedSassette and @davidji82 for hitting the leaderboard! @raleighgirl09 Woohoo! What a great day you had! Crossing my fingers you get thaqt great walking weather you want! @TeresaW1020 Woohoo! What a smile you have in that photo! You are the…

Saturday Check-in It was a busy day today. My son was in an academic contest, and wanted his favorite take-out taco breakfast, so I was up and about early. I just finished my cardio workout, and am off to the HabitTracker to make sure I can collect all my green checkmarks for the day! Random Audiobook Recommendation I…
