I think that I made an error in rejoining. This will be my last post. Thank you, and best wishes to all!

@megnolia82 : Oh, my heart goes out to you in your battle with the dreaded CDiff. I truly hope you feel better soon and that you have a fabulous medical team overseeing everything.

My name is Kate, and I am loving reading these incredible introductions. We’re such a diverse group (even internationally!) and have found something we all have in common : this commitment to be more healthy and comfortable in our own bodies. Go, Slims! I’m 67 (for a few more months, anyway), a wife, a mom to one, a nurse…

Weigh-in day!!! Username: KMD1214 (Kate) Weigh-in Day: Sunday PW: 164.9 CW: 162.3

@tammymccrady6278 : Thank you for that beautiful (re)introduction! So many of us (notably, lots of us in “caregiving” roles) struggle far and long with our weight. Lifetimes, really. Your commitment and success are so inspiring and ‘just what the doctor ordered’ for me to read this morning (before the hot dogs start…

@Neon_Ninja : I believe it would be next Wednesday, the first Wednesday in September. I also think that you can change your weigh-in day by messaging @broncobuddee, who manages all that.

Thanks for so many warm welcomes! @trooworld : I’ve thought of your quote so many times since I’ve read it… [My phrase for the year: "Every choice is another chance to change my health for the better."] Love, love, love that! For any southeastern-ers, stay safe this week!!!!

Hi, Everyone— my name is Kate and Im happy to rejoin the Slimpossibles after a 4 year hiatus. I lost about 25 lbs back then (I felt wonderful!) and, regrettably it’s all back. Looking forward to the accountability and support to give and receive in this forum. Seeing familiar « faces » here reminds me that this is a…

I reorganized my nutrition screen to display fiber right after carbs

Gosh, it is SO gratifying to read about everyone’s tenacity and strength! So...... I’m back on track..... whew. I had a “moment” that lasted 2 and a half weeks. I thought there might be someone out there who would benefit from this post. Over the last two weeks, I’d almost completely broken from my my low carb, controlled…

Username: KMD1214 Weigh In Week: Week 1 Weigh In Day: Thursday Previous Weight: 150 Current Weight: 151.4. 😟 I can sum up this past week with one theme: “lots”. Lots of exercise....... lots of appetite...... lots of stress...... lots of lapses...... lots of wondering about self-sabotage..... lots of anxiety (formerly just…

Hi, all!!!! Sunday: Goals for the Month: see the fab 140’s for the first time in almost 20 years! Hoping to get back on track and lose 5lbs. Monday: Lunch: fresh garden salad w/ some protein — 3 oz of grilled chicken strips, a scoop of low fat cottage cheese (brightened with a teaspoon of mango salsa!) and, 1.5 oz of fresh…

Hey, Jami! Welcome to the Slimpossibles!! I read your post and went immediately to the Moderator’s Challenge—- and I’m so glad that I did! I printed the Challenge page and plan to do this every day! “New Beginnings”, the theme of this challenge, is speaking to me right now. I’ve struggled this week getting back into my…

Username: KMD1214 Weigh In Day: Thursday Weigh In Week: 4 Previous Weight: 151 Today’s Weight: 150 I am SO happy right now. Weight loss for the month of August is quite small; but, in the setting of an extended vacation with so many challenges, well, I’ll take it! Fabulous (one)-forties, here I come!!!

Hey, all!! Just in a from a long and lovely trip to see my daughter and friends....it is good to be home. And it feels good to have ‘kitchen control’ and to step back into some kind of routine. Some things to add to the list of “Things I Learned On My Summer Vacation”: 1. Lasagna tastes JUST as good as I remembered....…

Username: KMD1214 Weigh In Day: Thursday Weigh In Week: 3 Previous Weight: 151 Today’s Weight: 151 (I sure hope!). Nearly at the end of a wonderful vacation, still without access to a scale. Have sampled carbs that I haven’t tried in many months.... haven’t overeaten at all, which is a great feeling. Have done some…

Username: KMD1214 Week: Week 2 Weigh in Day: Thursday Previous Weight: 151 Current Weight: 151 (I hope). Still vacationing without access to a scale. Wonderful things I’ve learned while on vacation: 1. I didn’t need my trusty scale and daily weigh ins to stay on the straight and narrow. I just needed ME. Who knew??!! 2.…

Weekly Weigh In Username: KMD1214 Weigh In Week: Week 1 Weigh In Day: Thursday Previous Weight: 151.5 Current Weight: 151 Just a tweak this week, but happy to be starting a trip back ‘home’ with a small loss. My intention for the next three weeks is to approach eating mindfully. Once again, I can thank a Slimpossibles…

Hey, teammates....... everyone sounds so pumped up and focused on great outcomes for August---it's SO inspiring. My weekly weigh in is tomorrow morning---I've been experiencing a frustrating stall in weight loss over the last week. I think it's related to less exercise and a drift off in the amount and quality of protein…

Hey, all new and returning members!! My name is Kate... I’m 63.... recently retired and living happily in SW Florida. I started seriously addressing my weight issues this spring, after injuring one of my knees playing tennis. Hauling all that weight around on the tennis court probably contributed to that injury. When that…

INCREDIBLE!!!! AMAZING!!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!🎊

What a great way to start a vacation!! Enjoy!

I am so thankful for all of my Slimpossible teammates!! For me ( and maybe others), it is so easy to slip when you are feeling that you’re on this tough road all by yourself. I’ve never felt alone for a moment here, and it helped me to stay on track. It was also fun to share some high points (like the day I hauled every…

To our moderators: made a copy and paste error---need a correction in this week's Previous Weight: it is 152.5. NOT 153.6 (that PW was from the week before.) Sorry!!
