  • Eating better and exercise has finally crashed through the plateau I've been on for too long! Hope it continues as the holidays are growing closer! Lost 1.4 lbs this week. CSW: 167 LW: 166.8 CW: 165.4
  • Books? When I downsized and moved into my condo, I gave away almost 400 hardcover books to the Salvation Army. I love books. I love to read. My hubby built bookcases into the two walls next to our family room fireplace. They were completely filled. I had books crammed into other shelves and corners and finally hubby told…
  • Good morning! I've been reading posts and trying to get familiar with everyone, but it'll take time. I took a 35 minute walk outside this morning. It was a brisk 40 degrees (F). I walk around the condo community I live in which is a nice big circle with some small hills. Six circles takes me 35 minutes and is 1 3/4 miles.…

My companions are 3 fifteen year old cats from the same…

Weighed in yesterday and didn't lose a single ounce, in fact gained a pound. So discouraging. Decided to go back to eating a more balanced, but lower…
  • I love tea, too! I drink decaf. Right now I'm drinking Twinings Lady Grey and Earl Grey in the morning. For afternoons and evenings I like Celestial Seasonings Country Peach Passion. I switch around on the flavors for Celestial Seasonings. I used to get some great tea at The Anderson's store, but they closed. Boo hoo...…
  • Good morning! Does anyone else eat salad or have green juice for breakfast? I used to do a green drink with spinach and apple, but since I'm on a very low carb diet, I've started eating my greens in salad form, along with a protein shake for breakfast. It seems to keep me very satisfied with no cravings and not even hungry…
  • Just checking in. Going to wait until next Wednesday to post my weight loss, since I just joined a couple days ago. As for a reward...hmmm...maybe a new book. A little about me, I'm a Type 2 diabetic. Diagnosed 2 -1/2 years ago. It's been a real struggle, but I'm still learning. The same day I joined this challenge, I also…
