It is certainly a learning process every time we lose and gain lose and gain. We learn something. Just don't fall and stay down keep doing like that baby who falls all the time what does he do he picks himself up and try again and again until he walks in a perfect line. We can do this. We will do this. Linda in the great…

Yep i'm 75 years young. And I must have played with the same weight for at least 1,000 lbs off and on off and on. Oh well it's been like that for 50 years but I do weight 30 lbs less than I did 20 years ago. So i'm back at it today marking 4 good days lol. As long as when we fall we pick ourselves back up.

Well that was lot of reading. I did take notes and will try and come back and answer some of them. But today is my 4th day. And yes the darn scale fluctuates but what to hell keep plucking. I can and have to do this not to turn heads but for my health. I think at 75 the wolf whistles are done lol. Linda from the great…

Good morning this place here I am on my 4th day I don't report what the scale says every day. Because I don't want my fluctuations to show up here. So I report every week. Started Jan. 3rd well was suppose to be on the 2nd but just couldn't stop eating. Raided the fridge and the panty. Guess I thought I'd never see food…

Well starting day 3 I hate this fluctuation thing and that I just can't understand a gain.. All I can think of was to much carbs in the popcorn I had. Because I was under calories on here. Oh well take it and keep with it. Good luck to all Linda in Northern Ontario

Sometimes you have to vent Lynn and it helps even if it's talking to strangers. Well for me it's off to the lab this morning. Then tops at 5pm hopefully i'll be down some. Good luck to all.

Well I started at the beginning of the month at 200 and this morning 197.6 not much of a loss but a loss all the same. Doctor's appointment coming up. See what they can do for my knee. I want to walk. Exercise is out of the question right now.

Can't move to much yet I think i'm getting over a baker's cyst in my knee hope it breaks soon. Can't see a doctor to drain it until October 5th. Oh well still going down slowly.

Weight starting 200 Today went up a little 198.8

Don't let the weekend be the boss of you Take it by the horns and have a great weekend.

EAch day is a new day To face as we see fit.
