This has been one weird week. I have been doing the same old stuff. Got on the scale today and it was 203.6! What??? Only difference is I have been actively walking every day...only 6k steps but that is alot for me. I tore my hamstring and both abductor muscles 2 years ago and they still let me know they are there. Not an…

Been on steroids for my neck and ended them a few days ago. So between the heat and the meds I figured this was what was going on with the weight. Will I stay down? For today it doesn't matter because I have proved to myself that Onderland was real and obtainable. It is my new carrot on the stick. Hope everyone is having a…

Kettle Chips are my kryptonite. I have 2 bags here but not opened. If they somehow get opened(grandkids)well, let's just say the visual would be scary...punch 2 holes and put that bag over my ears and face and chomp!

Not sure what the gain is from but oh well. Still trying! I can see the next goal, Onderland, but it keeps moving. Really need to find some breakfast options. Getting tired of the eggs/eggbeaters. Protein keeps me full, yogurts are good but then I am hungry sooner. It has been super hot here and now it is in the 60's. Good…

Hello again! Still working on this. So glad that journaling and this have given me accountablility. Almost to the Onderland, can't wait! Seems like these last few pounds will be the most stubborn! Another long vacation coming up end of month so hopefully will be down so that if I go up won't be too catastrophic. I can give…

I just realized I have pretty much made my goal for June even with doing a 12 day trip. Wow. This may be the lowest I have been in a long time. Kind of fun going through clothes that now fit me. Not sure when I could get into them before! I told my hubby I wouldn't get rid of my bigger clothes for awhile...I have to see if…

So the 12 day fishing trip went ok. Fishing wasn't the best. Weather was really hot the first week then dropped into the 40's for the last 5 days! Glad I brought a pair of jeans and sweatshirt with! Ate pretty much as usual but didn't say no to a few things. Now back home and trying to get back to my new normal way of…

Lots going on...fishing trip starts this weekend minus a scale and air conditioning! It is in the upper 90's where we are going. Son and his family have bought a new house and are staying here so chaos reigns! 4 grandkids...geez, they eat ALL THE TIME! Going to try and watch what I do for the next few weeks. Weighed in…

Going to be an interesting month. We are going on a fishing trip for 12 days. Will do my best to keep on track but with others cooking, etc it could be a challenge! Going to drink lots of water and hopefully catch lots of fish! Jan 2021 starting weight 221.4 June Start Weight:206.6 JuneGoal Weight:202 Ultimate Goal…

Well I went on a fishing trip and caught a 26" Walleye! She was a fighter and got put back to make more little walleyes. Didn't really do too bad eating. Not sure what the weight gain was from but will just keep trying. All I can do, right? It would be really easy to slide up again...just saying. Hope to see you all in the…

Missed the weigh in for the last week as was out of town. I brought lemon bars and brownies for everyone. I only ate half a lemon bar.....that is a miracle for me! Good news is I have been going through my closet and it is like having new clothes! Yes, I keep different sizes. You know how manufacturers just can't decide to…

Hoping everyone had a great week! Been busy here. Trying to plant today before the storms come! I am going to change my weigh in day to Thursdays. The weekends are too hectic with fishing trips!

Another week done! Not too bad but not where I wanted to be....but will take almost a pound. I think I need to drink lots more water than I do. Have been keeping the calories under 1400...most of the time around 1200-1300. Today I actually googled how many calories are in a Dairy Queen Peanut Buster Parfait...would you…

Okay....down a pound. Went to my Dr. and found out that since my last visit, Jan 29 I have lost 6.5lbs which makes this 7.5 from then. Only a pound since we started this challenge but will take it. I am one of those that want to go to bed and wake up 10lbs lighter..lol. I need to get out and walk more...Some days I just…

I am in! It is so hard to lose the weight. Type 2 diabetic. Been journaling/watching what I eat since March 17. Forgot to weigh myself when I started. Go figure. It just evolved! Looking for some companions, ideas, laughs, tips and recipes! Will start with today...no joke! April 1 start weight 215.4 April Goal weight 210…
