Hi all, great job everyone...I'm in the same boat...I was up at my cottage last week and eat and drank a little more than I should have...down on my overall weight since Jan's challenge by 30 pounds, so I'm very pleased with that...As with anything, I allowed a few bad eating and drinking habits to creep in on occasion,…

HW: 306 SW April; 265 CW July 12: 254 GW: 245 My weight loss has slowed, fells like I'm in maintenance mode. But still at it... Good luck everyone, let's keep pushing...

@frankwbrown;c-46098629; Frank, you are amazing...love the FutureMe, and very happy to know they were able to repair your hiatal hernia. I actually have one as well, and I'm seeing my Dr. today...with my weight loss or just old age, I've been feeling nauseous these days. Sir, please take a moment to enjoy and relish in…

HW: 306 SW 4/1: 265 CW 6/21: 255 GW 7/30 : 245 Have you ever lied to yourself, saying that you're on a diet? I have...then get angry at the scale rather than myself...six weeks to go, I've got to stop lying smile!

@frankwbrown OMG! You are doing it...wow...way to go...

"Toronto6fan;c-45992427" Hi Michelle, my name is Larry, I'm an executive with a Professional NHL Hockey Club. In addition to my professional career, I’m an author, with most of my books being in crowds and human behavior. I’ve also written my memoir, Buck Seventy-Two, A Destiny of Will, and a book entitled Life Choices,…

@frankwbrown; Thanks Frank for the support and encouragement, I'm going to try!...

Hi all, Happy Monday....my weigh in accountability day...while the weight is slow to come off, the good news is learning to eat within reason, which may be half the battle. My brain is starting to communicate with my stomach, telling me that I'm full a lot faster than even a month ago. HW: 306 April 1: 265 May 17: 257 (8…

@deepwoodslady Happy Birthday Donna, you're doing great...You have already set the goal in your mind, now its one calorie, one step and one day at a time, the next thing that you'll realize is, you've climbed the mountain...You got this!

Thanks so much...I had three in college at the same time, and he is the last....

Hi all, great inspiration...although i gained a little this week. My youngest son graduated this weekend with a Doctorate in Law, so we went to Washington, DC to be with him and celebrate, next weekend he'll be home and we will celebrate again... Also, while we all welcome things back to normalcy, i'm finding that with…

Thanks @RubyRed427 . Much appreciated. I buckled down over the week, burned 8,900 calories, walked 82,214 steps or 42.36 miles, climbed 63 flights of stairs. While it's been tough, i'm happy to report my weigh in for today. HW: 306 4/1: 265 5/3: 259 GW: 245

Thanks @shnerb00, all great points...and your right, as long as i'm losing and not gaining, I will be ok...I actually got into a size 48 L suite today, which hasn't happen for a long, long time...and yes, it still looks good....smile. Enjoy the rest of weekend.

Have you ever been in a slump, where you fall off the wagon and seems like it takes forever to get back on...I have...I've only lost 4 pounds in six weeks, even though i'm walking 25 miles a week, eating almost right...smile. While staying somewhat in my daily calorie zone, in reviewing my eating habits during this time, I…

Hang in there Frank, you have come a long ways, which means you knows what it takes, you've been through the struggles before on your journey to a healthier life. Stabilize and set the course...All the best sir, we are here for you...

Thanks @Up-n-Running. One year, I was up in Wheeling VA, teaching a subject matter course and we had a golf outing. I was shooting really bad, I told my group, "man I thought that I would have found my game by now,” to wit, one guy said, "your game is so missing, they have a picture of it on the side of a milk carton". Now…

I didn't dare weigh in on Friday...Have you ever had a bad golf game where you shot from side to side, hooked, sliced and diced...I HAVE...My eating last week was like that, all over the place...the good news is that I increased my exercise over the weekend to end at 1 under par, at 263. Smile! • HW: 306 • Apr. SW: 265…

Went out for dinner last night with a few colleagues, first time out in over a year. Well, have you ever planned your dinner, put it in your MFP, everything is set, then to only have it all go out the window? I HAVE...Last night, the conversations we great, like old college friends getting together, then the alcohol starts…

Happy Monday everyone... Well, I weighed in today, Monday at 264, and will weigh in this Friday to see how I handle my eating habit over the weekend. Moreover, I sit on a few Boards which are starting to do more in-person meetings and host functions, so I have to make adjustments for those meals and drinks during social…

Welcome home @RubyRed427, I love key lime pie...

Thanks, @shnerb00, I too struggle which Friday vs. Monday, I'm not sure if I trust myself to limit my intake over the weekend. I love the finer things in life, especially great wine, steaks, desserts, and my other guilty pleasure of peanuts. I do weigh myself everyone single day, but only count it on my official weigh-in…

Wow, you are doing GREAT! I'm still dreaming about a 42 inch waist...I'm hoping to at least change out to a smaller belt by July...smile!

Thanks for the response...and great reasons....Let's keep it going!

Welcome everyone to the group. It's a great group and has been a huge motivator for me. At my highest I weighted 306, which is extremely obese. Today I'm at 265, and the good news for me is I was able to get into a size 46 pants that I have not gotten into for years. And I was able to go upstairs in my house without…

Have you ever had one of those weeks when everything seems to be going well, you stuck to your eating, calorie and exercise plan, feeling good, then to get into a fight with your scale...I have! it’s starting to lie to me...we fought, I left, then I returned to apologize...as punishment for my outburst, it added a pound…
