@snowshoe072 it's been hot here in Southeast Kentucky also! I’m trying to watch how much I eat this week to make up for the weekend. One of my problems is not drinking enough water. I usually drink 6 cups. I know I need more. Just now on my 1st bottle after walking on the treadmill.

It was around 90 here today. Supposed to be around 95 the next few days. One of my goals is to be able to complete a 5k. Maybe next year.

Yup, mine is gone too. Feel free to post what you’d like here tho!

I don’t. Wish I did tho! But even if I could get one, I really don’t have anywhere to put it.

Nothing wrong with brownies and ice cream every now and then!

I told my husband that starting Monday our eating out is going to 1 day a week. I’m also going to start walking on my treadmill again.

I’ve been in tornado warnings, but have never seen one up close and pray I never do!

Doing a lot better here today. Had 2 tornado warnings here yesterday, one at 1:45pm and then again at 2am. Thankfully no tornado showed up. I’m a nervous wreck tho when we have bad weather! Right now I’m trying to talk myself into walking on the treadmill. I’d rather walk outside but we have a bunch of Great Pyrenees dogs…

I know I’m a little late replying. Before I started my weight loss journey my A1C was 6.0. I had been pre diabetic for years. And was close to being type 2 diabetic. My dr told me to keep my carbs around 100-125g each day and sugar around 25g. This was in August. When it was rechecked in February, it was 5.4. No longer pre…

In August of 2023 my A1C got to 6.0. I had been pre diabetic for probably the last 5 years. Dr told me if I didn’t do something I would become type 2 diabetic. Started my weight loss journey the next day. I weighed 208 lbs. Cut my sugar intake to 25g a day. 8 months later I’m down 53 lbs and my A1C is 5.4. No longer pre…

Yesterday I tried on a size 12 jeans and they fit. I started out at a size 18 4 1/2 months ago. I’ve been wearing a size 14 and noticed they were starting to get a little baggy on me. Today, my bmi went from obese to overweight. People are telling me “you’ve lost a lot of weight”. It motivates me when I hear that. My…

Happy New Years Eve everyone. Getting ready to leave to go to my twin sister’s to ring in the new year. I decided to not track my food today and to just enjoy my time at my sisters tonight. Tomorrow is a new year. 30 more pounds to lose to be at my goal. Today my bmi went from obese to overweight! I can’t remember the last…

Got behind on reading here…4 days! That was a lot of reading. Prayers for those who have lost loved ones and those who are sick. Had a wonderful Christmas. Had a Christmas Eve Eve get together at my twin sisters house. This is me, my twin and my mom… On Christmas we got together at my other sisters house… I’m kinda glad…

Just got caught up reading 129 posts. I was behind 3 days. My mom’s sister passed away not long ago. I found a digital picture of her that her daughter took and had it put on the 5x7 magnetic photo at Walgreens. I also bought her a Christmas garden flag because the last time I was there she didn’t have one. I took them to…

Finally got caught up on all the posts. 15 days til Christmas and I still haven’t put up my Christmas tree. Maybe I’ll just put my Charlie Brown tree up. We don’t get many visitors, so we’d be the only one who’d see it. No biggie tho. Went with my husband to his work Christmas party last night. Lots of yummy food. I done…

Had our ladies Christmas party at church last night. I definitely didn’t stay within my calorie deficit. Too many yummy appetizers. I’m back at it today tho. This is my little village I got last night at the party. I moved the little boy standing next to the Christmas tree to the middle.

I’m still around, just reading everyone’s posts. I hope everyone is having a good Monday. I love looking at the pictures you all post on here. This is my baby, Ginger. I can’t take her walking with me when I walk outside because she constantly has her nose to the ground and has to stop every couple of minutes. The part…

I'm in southeast Kentucky. I’m 2 1/2 hours south of Louisville.

I hardly ever eat any of my exercise calories back unless I go out to a restaurant and want to splurge a little. I figured that’s more calories burned that will help me lose weight. Gina from Kentucky

The little town I live in is changing into Whoville for Christmas. Here’s our tree! Gina

I wish it was pre-programmed! I just follow along with the video. She tells you when to increase and decrease your speed and incline. Gina

My husband and I ended up going over to Pigeon Forge this past Sunday. Got back home this evening. It was a wonderful trip. We done a lot of shopping and a lot of eating. I dread stepping on the scale Friday. The way I see it tho, any weight gained is I lost it once and I can lose it again. I got a lot of reading to do to…

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday. I done really well with not eating too much. Just a spoonful of my favorites including chicken and dumplings. Yum! Today is weigh in day for me and I’m down 2 more pounds. That makes 31 pounds lost. On a different note, we changed dates for our vacation. Instead of…

Happy Thanksgiving to those like me in the U.S. I just got done doing a new incline workout on the treadmill for 25 minutes. 4 sets starting at a 2 incline going up to 8 on the 4th set. You do 1 minute and 30 second intervals with speed between 2.0 and 3.5. It definitely got my heart rate up. This evening I’ll just do a…

Thanks! We’re going to Pigeon Forge Tennessee. That’s usually our go to place as it only takes us a couple of hours to get there. We drive over to Ashville, NC also. Gina

I love walking outdoors more than I do on the treadmill. With the colder weather and rain tho, the treadmill it will be. Plus with the treadmill I can walk at an incline. Gina

I’m not much of a post-er but I love reading about your alls days. Had our first Thanksgiving dinner at my twin sister’s house this past Sunday. Got 2 more dinners and a party between Thursday and December 5th. On top of that, my husband will be on vacation next week and we’re going away for a few days starting Sunday for…
