Can You Stand The Rain - New Edition

December 22: 210 lbs January 2: 210 lbs But I do commiserate with you OP :) My takeaway is to log even during the holidays. Next year if all goes according to plan my maintenance will be lower so I'll be more at risk.

Wednesday Morning, 3 AM - Simon and Garfunkel

So... SW: 210.8 lbs. I wanted to start exactly on the 1st. Started the day and year with a (fast for me) 5 mile. if every day were like today I'd weigh 197 lbs in 5 weeks. Oh well... Tomorrow will be more normal ie I'll eat back exercise calories

There we go. January 1, 2019. Exercise: 5 miles outside Within budget: Yes. I event went to a party but I didn't like the food at all. And was too tired to cook when I got home Tracked: Yes

I don't care what he says. 14 lbs is a big deal! Congrats on your progress. Might be time to evaluate HIM. Maybe your money's not good for him anymore

Today I walked 1 (out 5) miles at 15:34 min/mile. Last month, over the same distance, my fastest mile was at 17:35!

Happy New Year :smiley: Somehow it seems sooo slow while you are losing barely more than 1 lb per wekk but somehow it does ad up. Way to go OP!

This speaks to me more than the percentages: How many cancer cases every year can be attributed to consumption of processed meat and red meat? According to the most recent estimates by the Global Burden of Disease Project, an independent academic research organization, about 34 000 cancer deaths per year worldwide are…

@sassysmom35 You are my challenge twin. I had put starting weight 210 and GW 199 ie Onederland. I did the same as you, started logging food but didn't step on scale not to get discouraged by the number. I estimate I have lost 20 lbs already. I am 5ft7. My UGW is 130ish

Hi All, Thanks @RangerRickL for running this. I am early 40s, pescatarian, my main form of exercise is walking. I plan to add some weight lifting in January. I'll need extra motivation since I'll start a new job on 2 Jan, going from self-employed to corporate. I hope UAC will encourage me to maintain good habits. I have…

10k walk at moderate pace. Well OK 9.7 kms :)

Love is All Around - Wet Wet Wet

Sugar - Maroon 5

Knock You Down - Keri Hilson

All night long - Lionel Richie

I Wanna Dance with Somebody - Whitney Houston

I think both are extremely rude. My opinion is everybody should focus on what's in their plates. I think genuine questions are OK as they do invite a real discussion. But any type of compliment (what am, 5 year old)?) or criticism (who are you, my mother?) should be avoided.

The blank stare was going to be my suggestion. While slowly putting food in your mouth seems even better. :smile: I find comments about what people eat rude and annoying. And yes I rarely know how to respond or even whether people are expecting a response.

Happy Birthday @CarvedTones!

Nobody really tells you of the "in between" time. When you've lost quite a bit but you are so big that nobody notices (20 lbs down in my case). And even some people remark that you've gained weight (remembering me from maybe 10 years ago!!). Or the "in between" time when your fat clothes are too big and your normal size…

I like this thread. I see I am not the only one who went all in baking-wise. I made Chocolate crinkle cookies 2 types of biscotti Caramel Pear Buche Cheesecake lemon bars Sweet cheese bread Swiss onion bread Amish dinner rolls I was out of town so I haven't weighed myself since Saturday. We'll see what the scale says…

Last Christmas - Wham

Hey there! I am 210 lbs now. So I need motivation to reach Onderland. I am starting a new job in Jan so I don't know how that's going to impact my exercise and meal planning. I'll need all the motivation I can get to drop 10/12 lbs. SW: 210 GW: 199

Eyes Wide Open - Creed

Blue Christmas - Michael Bublé

Thanks for the reminder. I am not even weighing myself until next Saturday.

What's your question? Are you asking the maths of comparing 2%*weight compared to 2? I assume not so what do you want to know?

In the Late of the Night - Toni Braxton
