Here you go....smile!

Happy monday! Starting weight - 306 Goal weight - 245 Today's weight - 266 Lost - 40 To go - 21

Weight loss is a life change...I'm an up and down dieter. I weighted 306 in April 2019, My A1C was off the charts as diabetic and asthmatic, that's not good news. I went from 306 to 274 in 10 months to 274 in Feb of last year. Then the pandemic hit, and old habits returned, my sweet tooth and all. It seems like you always…

Hi Ruby, count me in...I started at 285, now at 267, lost 18 pounds. My goal weight is 245, 22 pounds to go.

Yes, I'm actually doing intermittent fasting now...I started with the 16 hour off and 8 hour eating window for a few weeks, then upped that the to an 18, 6 window and now I'm on the 20 hour off eating and a 4 four hour on window. The first week is the toughest, I would actually go to bed at eight so I wouldn't eat past 8…

That's GREAT...you're doing an amazing job...wonderful inspiration. I was 306 at my heights. For me, it's been learning and sticking to a new healthier lifestyle, and moderation. Learning that if I fall off the wagon, to get back on immediately, as it only takes a few days before old habits return. Keep it up!

Thanks Frank, it does feel good to cook a great meal...I've never cooked so much as I have this past year...Great for you on the weight, that's awesome! What's your goal weight?

Baked salmon and sweet potatoes over the weekend. I seasoned the salmon all over with olive oil, paprika and sea salt. Then added honey and mustard on the top. Then I sealed the salmon in aluminum, with parchment under the fish, baked 20 minutes, opened the aluminum, removed the parchment, then boiled the top for another 5…

I missed one ingredient, a mixture of "water (12 ounces), 2 tablespoons of Raw Apple Cinder Vinegar with Mother, 2 tablespoons of 100% maple syrup and cayenne pepper"

Hi all, great going to everyone!!! I'm happy to report that my weight is finally starting to go down. Being an older man, I had to do even more. Apparently white fat is harder to burn, it needs to be converted into brown fat which is what babies have mostly since they can't eat real food. So, fasting gets me into the brown…

Hi all, heavy here with you...happy to report that my weight is starting to come off, it has taken so long for it to start moving, week, after week I stayed the same. Down 9 pounds from Jan 1, 2021, still a big man at 274, but can see and feel some progress....Yes!

Frank, I'm right there with you...I've walked 29 miles this week and ate less than my daily allowance and gained 2 pounds. The only thing different is, I got my first covid-19 shot this week...not sure if that's it or not...I'm hoping it's just water gain...Hang in there, I'm with you...

Hello all, well, I finally "caught" my weigh in scale, it was running fast but I finally garbed it and stepped on it...I broke the 280 mark...wow, in the 279ish range...that's a big deal for me...here we go!

Today for the first time since I joined the group that I lost weight...While the scale is still frighten of me, it struggled to report 283...it's not much, but feels good...

Nights and weekends are the worst for me...I'm ok as long as I'm working, just as soon as I stop, the food light goes on...I try eating healthy stuff but it just doesn't satisfy my cravings...then I kick myself...but reading everyone's post let's me know that I'm not alone and if we stick together and push each other,…

Happy New Year all, Fat *kitten* here, and still fat...I was hoping to lose 20 pounds over the holidays...but it just didn't happen! I did weigh myself this morning, and oh my God....what went wrong. I started at 283, this morning I was 285...my scale was streaming, get your ...off of me!!! Tomorrow I'm using two scales...

Hi all, this is Fat *kitten* with you, weighing in at 283...I rock the scales, laterally and fugitively....smile! If I can hit 250 by March, 2021, wow, that means that I don't have to wear a coat in 90 degree weather to hide this load...Let's do this...Bring on the motivation, I need all the help I can get, the good, bad…
