Leo on Movie Night Start weight: 145.6 lb Today’s weight: 142.6 UGW: 120.0 lb February goal: 140.6 (Trying for 5lb/month) Today is a day off (at least until someone calls in “sick” and I have to go in and cover) and lots to do. I have to make a progress video for my harp classes by Monday and really want a few more hours’…

Start weight: 145.6 lb Today’s weight: 142.8 UGW: 120.0 lb February goal: 136.0 lb (Trying for 5lb/month) Everything went sideways when I got to work yesterday and I never got to the workout. The one easy thing was the having to let the troubled employee go; that went smoothly at least. BUT now there’s another one who has…

Greetings, The sun is rising over calm seas, it’s 70 deg this morning. Thank you for all the comments on my hiring dilemma. I should clarify that in this case “friend” means acquaintance at best. My son spends time with her son and we say hello in passing both at Church and at the Athletic Club where I work and they are…

Good morning! So far, having pre-cooked /planned meals is working. When I get home I’m so exhausted and hungry from work that I had been binging carbs—just grabbing the easiest thing. But these past evenings I dump my boxed meal on the plate and microwave it, wolf it down, then go to bed. I also have planned breakfasts and…

Good morning! Yesterday I had my first day of 7 with all meals planned out. It went well and it was great to have food already prepared. The New Orleans Red Beans turned out well and my husband came to raid them but they were already packed away in their containers. He did snatch the rest of the Andouille sausage as a…

Greetings! I’ll start with a question to the group: How do I message someone here? I went to the person’s profile hoping for a “Message” button but no luck. Any tips for me? Thank you in advance. We are finally having what passes for winter weather here. The brown pelicans leave and the white pelicans arrive. The Herring…

Oh gosh! You have a lot going on! Is there something you could just not do among all the holiday preparations? Maybe one less batch of cookies (or NO cookies!) or one less holiday activity? Could you take a little time to yourself and sit in a bookstore with a coffee by yourself or do some other solitary outing for…

Good morning from Padre Island! I lost track here and couldn’t find my last post, so I hope I don’t repeat. Everyone sounds SO ready for Christmas! Since I got this new manager job I’ve been dog paddling through the days, just keeping my head above water and everything else has gone by the wayside. I’m basically on call…

I’m finally taking another run at eating and moving properly. In September I took a managerial job that got me out of a desk job. I thought all the steps I put in would help but the stress was high initially and my good habits tanked and I’m up 10 pounds since I started. I am physically miserable and grumpy. Yesterday was…

Well, you have an edge since I assume you’re a guy. You can put on more muscle faster and that gets you an increased metabolism. What is your game plan for this goal?

Good morning! New here. 67 with a dear disabled husband, and a rowdy 18 year old son. And 8 dogs, mostly rescue. I have a stressful new full-time job (on call 24/7) and am struggling with eating and exercise. This despite the fact that I’m a manager in the largest athletic club in southeast Texas. Today I’m trying the “7…

I was just reading in “Badass Habits” that it helps to have an idea in our minds of who that person is that wants these changes and to begin to identify with that person. This new person wants to be comfortable in a healthy, graceful body. If we keep the idea of our old self who is maybe comfortable with overeating to…

Greetings, It’s my first post here and I just started MFP. My job went from “very active” to “sedentary” and my weight shot up. I’m trying to scrape together a solution and have set a calorie and water goal. It’s a start. I’m 65 and live here on North Padre Island in the Gulf of Mexico with my 6 dogs, disabled husband, and…

I’m in the same spot at 65 and, after I left a very active job (12,000 to 14,000 steps) for a desk job, I put on 7 pounds. I have tried intermittent fasting and my doctor said it damaged my metabolism. She advised switching to more protein and a weight lifting regimen. I’ve only just begun so it’s early days and I don’t…

Found it in the phone app under Settings, thanks!
