Good morning! 🌸

slstover35, have you tried Magnesium Glycinate? I was really struggling to get to sleep because of tinitus and it has really helped me fall asleep faster and sleep longer through the night. I still wake up to go to the bathroom in the night, but I'm able to go back to sleep really quickly. Blessings, Bonnie

Hi Melissa and Katrina! Welcome! Please add me as a friend if you’d like. 🌸

@Dianedoessmiles1, sorry about that! Thanks for letting me know. 😊

Welcome back to MFP, @heatherchait1! I’m back too, for about two months now and it’s my first time in this challenge as well. 🌸

My goals for exercising for this challenge are to continue with my water aerobics and make all three days: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I also walk my dog every day, 10 minutes on the days I'm in the pool and 30-40 minutes on the days I'm not. I would like to build up to walking 30-40 minutes everyday in addition to the…

I have drastically cut down on my sugar intake. My A1C was 5.6 on my last doctor's visit, and I want that lower so that my risk of diabetes is lower. It runs in my family and cut my mother's and my brother's lives short. I had sugar yesterday (July 4), but I'm back on plan today. My goals for my eating this next 8 weeks…

Weight Goal: During this challenge, I would like to lose 10 to 20 pounds. A realistic goal for me would be 10 pounds. Fitness Goal: I do water aerobics three times a week, I walk my dog every day and on the days I don’t have pool time, I try to walk 30 to 40 minutes a day. My goal at the end of this challenge would be to…

My 5% Journey Destination: At the end of this challenge, I would love to be able to look in the mirror and see the accomplishment that I have done the past eight weeks. My fitness journey is pretty much all of my adult life. I’ve struggled with my weight. I’ve struggled with Arthritis and fibromyalgia and other issues. I…

Took a nice cool walk with my Sydney and our brand new foster pup Ellie.

I would like to participate. 🌸

Bhoskins85 March Week 3 Monday PW: 217.6 CW: 217.6 I had actually gained a pound or so during the week but was able to get it off before this morning. I had a bit of a revelation this morning before I got out of bed. This is how my weight loss usually goes, zigzagging up and down and then finally seeing a loss. I felt…
