  • Committing to your challenge to move more.
  • I've had a life losses this past year too, My mother and niece and nephew who I was very close too. It has been tough but I always remember others have it tougher. But I have 'let myself' go in taking care of others. So I am back to doctor, review my goals, back to fitness pal and back to getting healthier, we can do this…
  • My favorite things to do to move more, is kayaking (I live on a small lake) walking slow with my camera and taking pictures of things that peak my interest, bike riding, swimming and dancing. I am retired so time to work those activities in the day is not a problem. But my laptop is. I have to change my couch potato habits…
  • I am borderline and don't want to pass over to type 2, my hubby is and he is struggling too. Have you worked any exersize, fun stuff, to do in your day. Walk during lunch time, ride a bike, join a hiking group, tried a challenge? Maybe ya got no energy, I struggle with that, so walking/biking in morning 1st thing (I push…
  • It sounds like you want something salty and quick and easy. Cucumbers dipped in salt is my go to. cold,salty,crunchy. fresh spinach on sandwiches, in tacos, with strawberries or rolled up with hummus inside, cold, crunch, fresh. I purchased that spaggatti gadget that turns zucchini into spaggatti which I stir fry, add…
  • I make it special, put lemon or raspberries, blueberries, cucumbers in mine. They I do switch to sparkling water with the fizz. but watch the salt. Hot tea when I am really cold, which I count. Could you make your own green tea and put it into your old bottles. Maybe tricking yourself and add a little sweetness-honey.
  • It sounds stupid, but good old cold water with lemon or lime, I have to stay away from nuts, because I eat too many, cucumber with a little salt for crunch and salt, sweet-rasperries or blueberries.
  • I'm baaack, and going to lose and move this year. Question, is a cup of water 8 oz. I drink the 16oz bottled water, so that means 2 cups. is this correct.
  • my comment might get lost, because of so many posts, but I got that spaghetti gadget from bed and bath. I have made zucchini spaghetti, like it much better than spaghetti squash, less sweet and eggplant great with tomato sauce, spicy chicken. I love this gadget. about 14.00…
  • What is your favorite: Spicy, Crunchy, Sweet, Creamy or Salty? Mine is Salty which I need to slow down on, so my go to are cucumbers, radishes, pickles. Things that are easy to grab with a little shake of salt. Find your craving taste and you will find your snacks. Spicy- salsa and 10 chips, Crunchy - 9 nuts, Sweet-…

  • I know you want to weight in everyday, I know I do, but being 59 I am use to the 5-7lb fluctuations all my life. You are young, especially with PMS, expect 5lb fluctulations, so maybe for you weight yourself every 3 days or even just once a week. and Be kind and gentle with yourself. Just be glad your are back in the gym,…

  • It took a while to gain your weight, it will take time to lose it. even if you stay the same for one week, it is better than gaining a pound that you have to lose again. So be patient with your self and check in daily. I'll be celebrating with you if you want to friend me.
