1. 59, married, 4 children 5 grandkids, Northern CA. 2. Currently 195, On MFP since 2011 I think. On and off 3. GW 135 I'm ok with 145 and 135 is hard for me to maintain. I'm watching what I eat, logging here, planning to get back to 300-500 calorie burn 5 days a week. I eat Gluten Free (issues not choice) just now trying…

My why: Health and looks. I want my cholesterol to go down without medicine. With retirement looming I compared lump sum vs. annuity- I want to outlive the annuity by living more than 15 years. I also want to live my later years fit and in good health and with vitality. I hate how big girl clothes look on me (my body…

Who am I? My name is Marilyn. I'm 59 years old living in Northern California with my husband. A few years ago I went from 210 to 174. Wasn't finished but stopped paying attention and went back up to 200. Been concentrating on eating the last 4 weeks and only down to 196. Twice before I've gotten to 135-145, and slowly add…

That is great that you are having success! Keep building on it. I have been checking in her periodically. So far nothing changed for me. Been sick the last two weeks as well as out of town. Great plans of exercising not happening. Maybe next week. I won't have a co worker with me so I will be able to return to the hotel…

This is my 3rd try at responding to this. Unfortunately nothing has changed for me. Sporadic at logging food, some days of eating too much, no exercise. I feel like I'm making progress if the scale goes down and then the next day it is right back up. I just found this 2 hours later, sitting on my computer unsent. maybe…

I'm sorry you had a hard day. Shopping frequently is a downer, especially with the crummy mirrors in stores. I've been stressed lately, haven't even thought about mfp. No exercise for me. Our complex got a new treadmill so maybe I'll try getting there. Going out of town again next week. Last trip I didn't get any exercise…

Happy birthday!

Exercising over the weekend didn't happen. Food was a little too much. Find out tomorrow what the damage is. i'm on vacation this week, not going anywhere so i should be able to workout all week and get my weight back where it should be. Want to end the year as close to 174 as possible. It is where I hot down to in March…

I am going to my Aunt's for Thanksgiving. She is always talking about loosing weight and exercising so I am taking my zumba disk (I think she has a wii) and a video DVD. Saturday we are going to the xmas tree farm to cut down a tree, walking around there will give me exercise. Hopefully won't undo my week of success. For…

1 hour zumba (wii) yesterday, all those calories and no desire to eat them

Are you still committed? Making changes? Sticking to your plan, at least more than not? I want you to keep your attitude of can. I'm doing well with my commitment so far this week. I went to bed hungry Tuesday cuz I had no calories left over. Now if I can just get on the exercise wagon. Exercise keeps me from being hungry…
-
We sound so much alike at this point, though you managed to exercise. You can do this! Commit to one day at a time. Be successful today and before you know it you will have changed your habits and lost your 65 lbs. I've been eating too many cheddar and sour cream potato chips, today I've decided they are no longer allowed…
-
I read your post yesterday and was going to commit to veggie smoothie daily. I did do one yesterday. Probably not getting there today unless I have an PM snack. Thought I did ok with calories but was actually over 200, I had forgotten some beans and cheese I had. Probably better overall than anything else I've done lately.…
-
I had been checking but with no activity I forgot. I'm not doing well with weight, or any health issue right now. I've gained about 8 lbs this year. The scale is showing a roughly 1 lb a day gain. I'm on vacation this week and I set a goal to exercise everyday. Didn't do it yesterday or so far today. I got hit hard with…

I am usually putting in some combination of: beets, celery, apple or pear, lemon or lime,, spinach, kale, cucumber, carrots, grapes and chia seeds . My husband likes a concoction of tomatoes, carrots, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, fresh jalapenos, apple and pepper. I started with fruit smoothies, but they ended up being…
-
how's it going for you? Are you still training with a trainer? Changed up your routine? I've been drinking a lot of veggie smoothies. Lost nearly 4 lbs this week, but since it is so fast I figure it is water. No exercise. I had few days with some exercise. Friday I badly twisted my ankle, just managing walking. I'm hoping…
-
good to hear from you. I was wondering if you had abandoned ship too. I'm back from Jacksonville. I was supposed to go again Monday but that trip has been postponed until Sept. Starting today to get back to exercising daily (did go kayaking yesterday), logging food, and staying in calorie goal. My battery died in my HRM,…

changed from nice work clothes to pants that should fit and they are really tight, almost too tight. My hubby is coming to visit me tomorrow, he is good about working out, maybe I'll get a few in with him. I'm so exhausted. This trip isn't working well for me. Glad you're getting your walking in.
-
No hours won't get better for another 4 weeks. I told myself I would at least do lunges and squats, but I keep forgetting to actually do it. At some point I'll get fed up and get back to exercise and improve my eating. Kind of in a holding pattern. Hope the scale isn't too shocking when I get home (June 22).
-
very good. Hope it is getting easier to keep it up.

good job
