✅ Log everything and stay within my calories for the day ✅ Do some kind of purposeful movement. Going to White water today so totally going to do some movement and with all those extra calories I’ll definitely be in my range.

Shrimp and steak fajitas for me. Little higher in calories but I hadn’t eaten much today so it fit right in. I am full and happy.

Goals for July 8-going to start small. I accomplished both of these today want to continue on for tomorrow Log everything and stay within my calories for the day Do some kind of purposeful movement.

Girl just look at your picture. You have lost sooooo much. You look amazing! Hope you are out of Elsa's path!

Well it has been some time since I have been on. I took a break, fell off the wagon, just didn't focus on anything but me having a good time. I have paid that price in lbs. Not a ton per se. But yes the scale has gone up. I lost my job in March. It was a tough pill to swallow but I took it in stride. I had plenty of money…

That’s totally my problem. I will eat the whole block if I don’t weight it and then put the rest up! It can’t even be out when I’m cooking cause I’ll just snack on it. I wish I could think of crazy things to throw into a waffle maker. All of those things look amazing.

Cheese is a tricky thing. I always do weight on it cause measure cups can be hugely inaccurate. If you weight there is no guess work as to how much goes in. Cheese is so high calorie and so amazing that I can easily go over my calories by eyeballing it

I have no clue. I have quite a bit of overhang skin on my midsection. It feel like 100 lbs but I’m sure it’s only 2-5. They do a little lipo as well during that surgery too so hopefully it will tone it up. I want to be bikini ready!

@FitByFifty1970 not sure where you live but the plastic surgeons I have been researching have a thing called a mommy makeover. It does the boobs and belly together in one surgery. My end goal is to get all the skin removed ie: tummy tuck and thighs. My girls could use some help but I would much rather get my thighs done!…

@conniewilkins56 are you doing another month without weighing daily? I saw you lost a big amount at the end of February. I bet that was an awesome feeling.

Reading all these was eye opening. Lol. I scarfed down a quick hot dog in between duties at my cubscout blue and gold party. Great for lower calories for the day not great for the super low calories for the day (I was at well under 1000). Can’t make that a habit but I was super busy and after I got home I crashed.

I have a lot of extra skin but I 100% am getting some of it removed. My arms don’t bother me as much as my thighs and of course my stomach area. I have to be at 174 before the plastic surgeon will meet with me and I would like to be around 150 before the surgery.

OMG!! @bmeadows380 I am so happy for you!! It sounds wonderful and magical and the ring is perfect for you! I can’t wait to hear all about the next adventure you are going on (wedding planning)!!

This is my thread for October. I did get on Zyban. It didn’t do anything really for weight loss or gain. Have only had 3 very small slip ups that were entirely stress induced and I chose to have a cigarette instead of killing my husband. Still losing weight but at a slooooooow pace since I only have 16 more lbs to loose.

I found a huge swap. At least huge for me. I gave up soda almost 2 years ago. It was the start or my weight loss journey. I love Mt. Dew. Like love it. I could drink a whole case a week. I would drink it before bed and when I got up. I tried diet soda but whatever they sweeten it with makes me sick to my stomach. So alas…

My trip was a great success. I needed that time alone to recharge. It however was not a weight loss success. I had no expectations that I would have lost weight while I was there. I ate what I wanted when I wanted. I tried all the Mardi Gras samples from different countries. I weighed in at +7lbs yesterday. I know I didn’t…

I am preparing for my high calorie birthday weekend at Universal Studios. So tonight was a grilled hamburger patty and some beans. Hit my goal for the day. Going to try real hard for tomorrow too. My mom is bringing me perogies for lunch (my favorite!) so it’s a super light dinner tomorrow night!

I made tacos. Good meal to put as little or as much as you want. I had meat and beans and cheese. Super yummy. Tomorrow for breakfast Alex wants breakfast bowls. Eggs, cheese, hash browns, and bacon. He covers his with ketchup. I’ll also pick and choose what is on there. More egg. Less hash brown. I’m making spaghetti and…

Let me say I have lost all my weight eating convince foods for the most part. We do lots of take out. And if it isn’t take out then it’s super easy meals that I throw in the oven out of the freezer section. If it fits then so be it!

Stupid TOM. In 25 years I’ve never had one. Get my cervix out and loose some weight and all of a sudden it wants to work!! I know why it is like now to stay under calories and work out and see no progress and upward movement. Sigh! So far no loss this week only gain. 😢

Is it even Italian food if you don’t add the tiramisu? I have a little local Italian place that I love and have supported often so they don’t go out of business during the pandemic. And I ALWAYS order the tiramisu!

I had rotisserie chicken enchiladas for dinner last night. Amazing! And only 450 calories. I love Mexican food and I love a diet that I can eat what I want as long as it fits.

Yeah I’m the same way. Thankfully I was able to get over that and make fish tacos. It was just as yummy and I am satisfied. I however have no doubt that before the weekend is up I will be having pizza. I’ll just have to limit the amount.

I’ll tell you I really want pizza for dinner. Maybe if I order a thin crust that will be better but I really am in the mood for some thick crust super greasy meat lovers pizza. Sigh weight loss can suck sometimes. Lol

Scale today said my lowest weight so far. 189! So close but yet so far! I have also decided that I am going to push my goal back 10lbs. My original goal was 174 it that is the highest weight I can be and be in a normal BMI. I need some wiggle room so 165 it is.

My mom asked me today what I want for my birthday dinner (yes I’m turning 40 and my mom still makes me a birthday meal with a cake every year.) I really wanted perogies. But I know that would set me back for a looong while. If you don’t know what it is imagine a ravioli but filled with mashed potatoes and cheese and then…

I made crepes for the first time this morning. I cut up some fresh strawberries and bananas. I added a little hazelnut spread (not exactly low calorie but it was only a little). They were amazing! My son put Nutella, peanut butter, strawberries, bananas, and whipped cream on his. 🤦‍♀️

I made instant pot meatloaf and fancy mashed potatoes. Amazing but took way longer to cook than I though it would. There were a lot of ingredients and steps. Still it was a win. I can never pan my meals. The best I can do is make a list of the different options that we have and then pick day to day. Though most days if I…

So glad it’s Friday and bed time!! I hired a psychiatrist today which has been very difficult to do in a rural health setting. I had to find just the right person to fit in with our team or it was never going to work. A glad that i can cross that off the list. It is snowing here today. I hate the cold. I hate the snow. I…

I don't know exactly what this is but I want one like right now!
