  • Another month by and couldn't keep up with you lovely ladies. I really want to check in everyday, but things always seems so nuts! I hope you all are doing well. I was sooooooooo bad yesterday. It was my birthday and I decided to take the day off. (Told everyone I was 25. It's not really lying if you use the correct…
  • Hello again. Work has been very busy (when is it not!). Have not been able to keep up with my post but like the accountability it provides when I do. Hope all of you are doing well. I'll go back and read when I get home. NSV – Finally broke down and bought new clothes because the others were too big. I was not sure what…
  • Happy Thanksgiving to all our Canadian friends!!! I hope you enjoy your time with family and friends. Thank you for all the support regarding my bike adventure! I do come from a long line of stubborn people. I could not exercise this week since I hurt my foot last week biking, but I could not take it anymore!!! I am so…
  • wessecg - My brother lives in Woodridge, outside of Chicago. We grew up in Northwest Indiana on a farm. Looking forward to going to visit him for Thanksgiving. I always wish for snow, something we don't see in Georgia. He keeps telling me to leave his weather alone. Congratulations on the strong resolve! I keep candy for…
  • Hi all! I tried to post last month and just could not keep up! I am still working in a school (in Georgia), but no longer in a classroom. I am an IB coordinator (International Baccalaureate). This is my 30th year in education! Can't believe it!!! Could retire after this year, but feel too young at 51 (plus worried about…
  • Hi everyone, Was discouraged Friday. Felt like I was trying so hard for no movement on the scale. Monday is really my weigh in day, but I usually do check it about half way through the week. Went out with my friends and relaxed (and ate way more than I should). Scale was down about half a pound this morning. I think I…
  • Hi, I found it again by looking under "My Topics". Every thread I've posted on showed up there. Since I've only posted on three, it was easy to find. :wink:
  • Michele I was reading your post from 8/31. Don't know if this helps, but I started having trouble with my big toe when I increased my walking to 5 days a week. Turns out I have arthritis there. The doctor sent me to a shoe store that deals with orthotics. They told me that I was wearing the wrong size shoe! He measured my…

  • I'm with you. They're not male models themselves! I guess we're not supposed to notice their thinning hair, graying beard, or spreading waistline. You're doing great. You've lost 30 pounds! That's fantastic! Not to mention getting healthier. Keep concentrating on that and forget them!
  • So far, having a sweet treat hasn't hurt my weight loss. I try to have a small piece and move on. I also have brought some low cal treats that I like and keep them in my filing cabinet - 100 calorie snacks, Fiber One 90 calorie bars, and sugar free pudding snacks (my favorite). I try to grab one of them when I just can't…
