Hey ya all.... I'm going to step away from the group for a bit. The state of our country has been weighing on my mind alot lately and today was just not a good day, mentally or for my weightloss. I'm trying to stay off of social media altogether, although I will still log onto this program in the evening and record my food…

I have heard all kinds of stories about results from others, however, I am not able to actually do the cleanse, but even though I don't have the willpower to do the cleanse accurately, I still had good results. I ate one meal a day when I was doing it and one snack. I still got great results with it as far as feeling…

Checkin 1/12/2021 weigh in day is friday Steps 2017 Today I started drinking a lemonade concoction that I did a couple years ago. It is from a "cleansing system" Anyway, I don't follow the rules to the cleanse, but after doing the drink today, it replaced 2 cups of coffee, I remember how well I felt when I did drink it…

Guess I should read all the posts first... haha So the workbook is doable without the text, correct?

The workbook you are talking about @363days Does the workbook, work by itself or is there a text book with it? I just found it on google play for 99 cents for the ebook. But I don't want to get it if it should be used in conjunction with another book.

Working on getting my protein up and lowering my carbs and fat. I really need to research a bit about Micros or is it macros.. either way, I think that would help me.

Checkin 1-11-2021 Weight ins on Friday Steps 3651

I have had one for almost a year and just did take it out of the box around Christmas time. I just made a roast. The roast was frozen when I put it in. About the only thing I saw different with that verses my crockpot is with my crockpot it would have taken about 10 hours to get the meat as tender as the InstaPot did in 3…

[quote=" @ScorpioGirl70 , Make sure to ask your dr. to run a T3, reverse T3 and T4 when they check your thyroid. You might also want to look up info on Hashimoto's disease and the diet for it. I take medication for low thyroid function. It makes a difference in energy level. Before the medication, it felt like I was…

yes, it did feel good that she acknowledged the weight loss. I knew I had lost since last January, just wasn't real sure how much... all my days seem to blurr together as far as weight-loss and gain.

Scorpiogirl70 Checkin 1/7/2021 Steps 2526 Had my yearly checkup with my doctor today. Blood pressure was lowish, which is odd since I am on high blood pressure meds. Doctor wants to check my thyroid levels as well as have me do a Holter monitor. She did state I have lost 15 pounds since last January. :) Really wish I could…

Scorpiogirl70 Checkin for 1/5/2021 Steps 3266 I went over in my calories, knew I would since I had a sweet tooth, that being said though my protein was 25%, I'm lucky if I get it at 15%. Think I am going to attempt to eat the same way for 1/6/2021 as I did for 1/5/2021, which was basically.. all I ate was turkey ... then…

ScorpioGirl70 Checkin for 1/4 Steps 7749 As I sit here and think about my weight issues and how I feel in the different seasons, there is something about winter that just doesn't help with my mood or my enthusiasm to get up and move. I guess it could be the lack of sunny days, the cold, I'm like a bear and just want to…

I'm not worried about tallys, I just do it to be part of something bigger then myself. :) It's all good.

Jan 3 checkin Scorpiogirl70 @Megan_smartiepants1970 Steps 1904 Now that Monday is here and hubby goes back to work, Maybe I can get back to what I should be doing.

Not near enough, but who knows maybe I can do it if I say it on here and outloud. The beginning of the year I sit at my desk more then…

Checkin 1/2/2021 Scorpiogirl70 Steps 1325 - didn't get much done today, worked for 16 hours and I am exhausted.

@jimboden3 Welcome to the group and thanks for letting us know a bit about your journey. For those who don't know me.. I am a mom of 4, 2 boys 28 and 18 and 2 girls 26 and 21. I have 6 grand daughters [I need a grandson..haha] I have struggled with my weight just about my entire life. When I was in 3rd grade, I was tall…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 Hope I am not too late to still be added for the step challenge. I am struggling on the steps, I honestly think if that is all I do, I would loose this weight. Anyway.. add me if not too late. If it is too late, that's ok, I will still report. :)

And the dumbbell workouts I will be doing.... I need to figure out where I found these, I have other ones but the images are so small that they don't print out well at all.

Scorpiogirl70 checkin 12/30/2020 Steps 2314 I decided tomorrow I know I will be over in calories so I am just going to record a "cheat day" I'm gonna eat all the good things.

Scorpiogirl70 checkin 12/28 Steps 1573 These darn cookies are gonna kill my weight, but watchout, I am setting myself up for a great New Year. Last year, I started on this journey with this program on January 1, and was killing it until my Dad had his health emergency in May and that threw me off and I have been struggling…

Linda.. take it easy! I am still pretty exhausted overall, not 100% sure if it is from the Covid, since many say it can take weeks/months to completely get over it and some people have had it from early diagnoses and are having symptoms still, or if it is the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.
