matthewsfive March Week 1 PW:245.2 CW:241.4

Why? My why is because my Husband is always asking me to go on a trip, I think he would take me anywhere I wanted to go but I can't, not at this weight. When I can walk without pain, I'm all in. He says we will only be in our 50's for a short time and the older we get the harder it will be to go away. I agree but not just…

When you think about your weight goals, what does success look like for you? Being any to walk with no pain!

matthewsfive Week 4 PW:247.8 CW:245.2 Goodbye February Hello March

GREEN MARCH..... I will pledge to lose 7 lbs for the month and keep each week green.

@Connie7355 Try to freeze them maybe that way you will only eat one at a time

quote="BonnieHosk85 Q: What has kept you going throughout this month? My need to keep losing weight, 40 some more pounds before I can have knee surgery.

@BonnieHosk85 Is it okay to weigh in on Saturday for my last weigh in for February?

How has your month gone? With two big dinner outings back to back, I did really well. Never went off track and stayed away from high fat/calorie foods. Saturday's weigh in will tell the final story. What went well? By the 4th week I was able to up my water, still not were I need to be but much better then the beginning of…

@momzie2016 Is it okay for my last weigh in to be March 2nd? I'm trying to only weigh in on Saturday's.

@Kittu125 Thanks

@BonnieHosk85 Quick question I still can weigh in on Saturday March 2nd as my last weigh in for February? I just checked the spreadsheet I might have answered my own question, it looks like I can use March 2nd as my last day for February.

Thanks will also be staying for the March challenge

I don't use either one but I will look into, Thanks

Thank you so much, I need to read these words. I have been on and off MFP for many years. I wish I could blame it on the TOM but I'm pass that phase of life. I believe one of my problems is that I might not be eating enough. I should say I know I'm not eating enough. I'm thinking my body just hasn't caught up with me and…

Thanks for reaching out, I didn't measure myself when I started back in January. I should take measurements but I'm not ready to see those numbers yet. I need to keep strong or I won't be able to have my knees taken care of. :)

feel better soon

Feeling discouraged... I know the progress of weight loss isn't easy and that there are struggles but when you do all the right things and it doesn't show on the scale its upsetting.I had a dinner party last night and didn't over eat and stayed well within my calories and I didn't have any desserts. Today I have an early…

I will try to up my water…

Matthewsfive February Week 3 PW:247.8 CW:247.8 I can say I stayed under calories all week. Hoping it's because I did lack in drinking water this week.

One thing that works for me when at a family gathering is too offer to bring a snack or appetizer that I know I can eat. So there is an option for me. When eating out I always look at the menu ahead of time to see my options. That way if I need to make changes to the menu I already have it figured out. Then there isn't too…

Hang in there, look over your dairy and see if there is a pattern in your food choices over the last few weeks

My vote is for Threat Thursday. I like this one because we are faced with threats everyday from ourselves and others who don't understand the struggle. For me that's one of my biggest obstacles. People actually tell me to let it go and enjoy the food around me. They are not the ones who need to have both knees replaced and…
