I have done miserably this month. Caregiver for my aunt (all about her, not me) big family event this past weekend. Tomorrow I meet with the surgeon about knee replacements. Gotta get busy, make good decisions and be committed to ME for awhile. I WANT this - I really do!

dew11252 weigh day - tuesday PW - 287.0 CW - 287.2

Dew11252 Weigh day Tuesday PW 280 CW 287 Sorry.. after a weeks of stress eating and sitting by/caring for my aunt the numbers are not good..... but its the honest number on the scales today. I'm not giving up. I'm gonna/gotta do this. I'll take the hit for the team cuz I'm not contributing in a positive way. Argh......

I am so sorry I have not been active. I have been caring for my 86 yr old aunt and life has been topsy turvy. Shall I continue or have you dropped me? I am back home looking forward to getting back to a good routine.

@Blakey1982 you are an encouragement to me and you have some good advice. new start today ... gonna track consistently and accurately. its a start like what you've shared about fasting. gonna track that. I think my fast is usually about 11 to 13. stay the course

I'm 67, 5'3", and weigh 282. That's not my highest but it's my starting weight.....starting now. Gotta lose so I can get knee replacements and fix a growing list of other issues. Point is, I start now. Goals for tomorrow, 1) log accurately, 2) no alcohol, 3) log 4500+ steps. Ready, set..... go!

down 2.2 this week lost 19 of my 21 covid pounds from last year new month, new start gonna conquer today

AF yesterday down 2.2 from last week had a really really good nights sleep ready to conquer the day

Welcome March. I sure would like to be AF this month. I think alcohol is playing a significant role in GI issues. Have a f/u with the doc next week but.... unless there is a clinical reason for my issues.... I'm holding alcohol responsible. Only way to feel better is process of elimination and alcohol needs to go first. I…

didn't make it AF today😒

I'm in. I'm 67, weigh 280, highest was 320. I have health issues that would improve with diet and exercise (2 bad words:). I need knee replacements but want to lose at least 50 more lbs and gain lots of strength. Got a good start today, did some exercises and had two healthy meals then jumped off the wagon with a bag of…

I'm in. I have high blood pressure, acid reflux, and now kidney disease. Also a breast cancer survivor BUT alcohol acts against my cancer medication. Duh.... any of those should be reason to get this under control. Planned to be AF today but didn't happen. So........ tomorrow and Sunday are AF days. No excuses.

I'm wearing out my recliner! I spend too much time doing nothing but watch TV and play on my tablet. I gotta/wanna have a more active life but first I need new knees - - - so I need to lose weight and get strong before I schedule surgery (my self-imposed requirements). TODAY - I decided this has to be the day I become more…

stayed within calories missed the other goals

stay within my calories do a load of laundry exercise..chair yoga, lymphedema care maybe some Sansone walking

@METALforCHRIST where are you? doing well?

End of month check-in.... Down 7.8 lbs this month. Down 27.2 total.

I am in the same place as you are. Both knees need replaced and I need to lose some pounds. Check YouTube for chair cardio and strength exercises and work up from there. I'm really hoping for surgery in January but gotta make better decisions.

Highest weight: 320 August 31: 295.8...starting weight Was down to 276 before covid September 7: 295.8 September 14: 291.4 September 21: September 28: September Goal: 285 September Actual: October 5: October 12: October 19: October 26: October Goal: October Actual: November 2: November 9: November 16: November 23: November…

@METALforCHRIST Keep it up. You have inspired me and I have had 3 good days in a row.... an accomplishment for me!

I did it! I finished just under calorie goal. I cleaned house all morning. Babysat Did some exercise! Good day🙂🙂🙂

@jm216 Thanks for the support. I have a good outlook today and looking forward to a good day.

Today: Cleaning day, no excuses. I have help coming so its gotta be done. Gotta get some exercise, shoulder/neck muscles tight from too much tablet time. Drink 64+ oz of water. Thats all. Gotta set some goals I can attain for a positive day.

I cannot get this phrase out of my head! My actions tell me my health is NOT a priority and that makes me discouraged and mad😡 My uncle once said.."what you want is determined by what you do". Do I really want to be a lazy recliner TBP --- twice baked potato? Argh! I need an attitude adjustment.

I need any success. I am a master at starting and no good at continuing. I don't have a good reason. I'm retired four years now. Still about the same weight. I need both knees replaced, but no pain on the elliptical. I have an elliptical at home, and Silver Sneakers gets me in free to YMCA, Concord physical therapy - both…

I want to: Do lymphedema care for my arm. Too many days without and it is sore. Do a load of laundry... all the way to folding and putting the clothes away. No more than one drink...dang covid... Get on the stupid elliptical. Yep.... no motivation today but that can't always be my excuse!

Diddly. I lost nothing. No motivation. Highest weight: 320 August 31: 295.8...starting weight Was down to 276 before covid September 7: 295.8 😒 September 14: September 21: September 28: September Goal: 285 September Actual: October 5: October 12: October 19: October 26: October Goal: October Actual: November 2: November 9:…

Wow! Today is an encouraging milestone. Congratulations on your stick-to-it-ive-ness.
