Happy Wednesday, Downsizers! I'm here for a quick check-in - so sorry that I have been MIA - between my mother's illness and the crazy stock market, I haven't been able to come up for air. PW: 138.5 CW: 137.5 SW: 250 I am thankful that I have been able to stick to my eating program - unfortunately, my exercise has really…

Happy Wednesday, Downsizers! PW: 138.1 CW: 138.5 SW: 250 I gained a little this week - but it could have been a lot worse - so I'm counting it as a win! My mother had two appointments yesterday - and two more today - so it will be another crazy day. My eating is completely on track - exercise, not so much - not sure how I…

Happy Tuesday, Downsizers! @MadDuck62 The good news is that you still lost weight! Great going! @aactuallyaash Great steps! @nite_0wl I'm in Richmond, VA and it's in the 90s here - and starting to get humid! @Cheesy567 @lindamtuck2018 What is this new dashboard you are talking about - all of my stuff looks the same...…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 Those dizzy dogs look amazing!!

Happy Monday, Downsizers! It's nice to be checking-in with all of you! Last week was horrible - I was at the hospital all week with my mother and for the first time in over a year, my eating/tracking fell by the wayside. My mother came home on Friday evening - so I'm hoping for a more routine week. Thankfully, I was able…

Hi Downsizers! I'm so sorry that I haven't been posting frequently - my mother is in the hospital with pneumonia in both lungs - so I've been with her around the clock. My weigh-in yesterday: PW: 138.7 CW: 138.1 SW: 250 @Megan_smartiepants1970 Please excuse me from the step challenge for now. I will stop by when I can.…

Hello Downsizers! My name is Cara and I'm one of the motivators for this group. I'm 55 years old, live in Richmond, VA and began losing weight in April of 2021. My starting weight was 250 and I lost over 100 pounds in less than a year - I recently hit my goal weight in March. I stuck to daily calories of 1,200 and never…

Happy Thursday, Downsizers! This tiny one will be joining me today - I'm so excited! Things are still crazy at work - but I have been able to stick to my eating plan - exercise, not so much! Steps for 5/25 4,941 It's great to see so many new faces here - welcome! I hope you're all having a great day! Cara

Happy Wednesday, Downsizers! Weigh-in: PW: 138.7 CW: 138.9 (+.2) SW: 250 After traveling for work last week, it could have been a lot worse - LOL.

@Megan_smartiepants1970 The week that ends today - thanks!

Happy Saturday, Downsizers! I'm back from Chicago - the trip was great, businesswise - but I hated it, dietwise! I had to eat all of my meals at restaurants and it made it very difficult to track things accurately. I'm glad to be home and getting back into my normal routine. The trip was really disruptive.…

Hi folks - still traveling - just stopping by for my weigh-in - 138.7 - down .1 from last week - steps for 5/17 7,123 - looking forward to getting home! I hope you are all having a wonderful day! Cara

I eat a lot - usually 6-10 servings per day - mostly veggies - but in the summer, I increase my fruit servings as well. I'm on the road for a couple of days - looking forward to getting back home and cooking for myself - having to stay in my calorie range while eating at restaurants or hotels for all three meals is tough!…

Happy Monday, Downsizers! I will be doing a lot of traveling this week - so just a quick check-in: 5/15: Calories: in range Exercise: 70 minutes elliptical Steps: 16,757 It looks like we have some amazing weight loss this week - and lots of people hitting the reset button to get back on track. Great job everyone! I will…

Happy Saturday, Downsizers! I'm just dropping by quickly to check-in - am at the adoption stand today. 5/13: Exercise: 70 minutes elliptical Steps: 12,081 I stuck to my plan yesterday - so far, so good today! I hope you are all having a wonderful day! Cara

@lindamtuck2018 Yes - I will be running the adoption stand tomorrow - looking forward to it!

Happy Friday, Downsizers! 5/12: Calories: in range Exercise: 6.7-mile jog Steps: 18,632 I had a great day yesterday - working towards another today! I'm looking forward to the weekend! @rwood566 What do you think you can do to curtail the snacking while you're healing? @Megan_smartiepants1970 ONEDERLAND! You are amazing!!…

@888Angie888 You can do this! Setbacks happen to all of us - and it's likely it's mostly water weight - just get right back on plan and the weight will go away.

Happy Thursday, Downsizers! 5/11: Exercise: 70 minutes elliptical Steps: 16,051 I went for a 6.7-mile jog today - felt great! I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that I probably have some plastic surgery in my future. @Morethanjustanumber Impressive steps!! In fact, congratulations to all of our amazing steppers!…

@lindamtuck2018 I don't know if this would help - but - have you ever heard of The Beck Diet Solution? It's a book about cognitive therapy for weight loss - and it definitely deals with binge eating. You read a small chapter each day for six weeks - or however long you'd like - and you learn a new skill each day. It has a…
