I love hearing all this good news. I finished our itinerary for our Boston Trip. My granddaughter called to see if we could fit in one more stop--MIT she said she might want to go to college there! She said she has 8 years to decide!.

Well, I didn't lose anything, but I'm going to keep on keepin' on.

Kathy, thank you for the prayers for my granddaughter. Everything looked good in the scan, they did some biopsies, will get results next week I think. Today I am grateful for my job which allows me to travel. I am taking three of my grandkids to Boston next week for spring break. Last year we went to Williamsburg, Yorktown…

I wear my clipped in the center of my bra with the clip inside and fitbit on the outside. I think it is accurate. Today I did 12,224 steps! That is way up for me and boy do my legs ache. I'm going to soak in the tub w/Epsom's Salts and Lavender. I'm up to 50 minutes walk a day, but I cannot go at my fastest speed. These…

Wandakc, you can order one online shipping is free. I would not get the smallest one (square shaped), they use a battery and run out pretty quickly. A co-worker has one, she was warring it on her bra and moved it because she said it looked like she had a third nipple! Too funny. I have a Fitbit One. I wear it on my bra. It…

Happy Belated Birthday, Rebamae! I'm glad you are still with us. Life threats do give you a new perspective on life don't they? Today I am grateful my granddaughter came thru her test and biopsy well. Praying the biopsies can give us some answers.

Today I am grateful to be able to walk 45 minutes without any problems. Joni

I don't read this sight every day, so I'm late with a couple of replies. DreamOn, I work for an airline, the OT was closing bags! Ugh! The most dreaded shift! Rebamae, I live in Kentucky. We love college basketball in this state. My husband is a UK fan, I am a UofL fan. We both pull for the other team when they are not…

Charlie, the stress is not good for you. For me, that would cause the eating and unceasing hunger. It would also cause the weakness. When I get very stressed-it is like a gripping fear-and I just cannot move. Deep breathing helps me a lot. I too am experiencing pain in my left leg from my hip to above my knee- on the…

The additional water sounds like a very good idea. As long as your body can tolerate it. You have been doing an exceptional amount of exercising and watching you food intake. I also think you should go to your doctor, but before you go, write down everything you have been eating, calories, etc.; all the exercising you have…

It's fun and encouraging to read this everyday. Joni p.s. no weight loss for me last week, Bummer!
-
Congrats to all of you on your weight loss. I did not lose, bummer. But, I'm hanging in there. Today, I walked 12, 752 steps! By the Computershateme, I have issues with them also, but as with my weight, I am learning to persevere!

Had a great busy weekend, saw 6 of 8 grandkids, worked 6 1/2 hours OT (8p.m.-2:30a.m.)!!!, partied w/some friends, one grandson's bday party, daughter and son-in-law's bday dinner!. Lots of food, but hopefully, when I get on the scale tomorrow, I will not be disappointed. This weeks challenge from the Wellness Challenge at…

Today I am grateful that the OT assigned to me did not interfere with my granddaughter's Regional Speech Meet this morning. I was able to go and hear her recite her fable and receive a blue ribbon for superior rating. I'm not at all thrilled with the OT--8:00p.m to 1:45 a.m.--that is actually after my bedtime!. I am off…

Stayed the same. Joni

Today I am grateful to be able to walk from the parking lot to work without fear of black ice or ice. I didn't have to pay to park in the parking lot which saves me $!!!Rah!

I'm Joni, I keep forgetting to sign out with that.

I grew up in Cincinnati and lived there till we moved here 42 years ago. My family is still there, so I go for some holidays, living in Louisville, KY, just 100 miles, it is an easy trip.

Today I am grateful for my coworkers that cared enough to call and make sure I was OK this morning when I was late for work. And also grateful for the opportunity to spend time with two grandkids this afternoon going to eat and going to the show. And for making good choices last night and tonight for dinner.

Today I am grateful for a long time friend of 38 years. She lives in Fl. now. We had a nice conversation today. Myrtbbk, I had my colon re-sectioned in 1999. I went to bed feeling fine, woke up trying to turn over and had a sever pain in my gut. Turned out my colon perforated. I had a colostomy for five months, then the…

Welcome back! You are always welcome here. The support is fantastic. I use my tablet and cannot access the community either. I have to get on the laptop to do that, so I inconsistent, but I love the read the posts here. Joni

I forget which Fitbit I have, but I wear it on my bra. I never drop or lose it. It counts steps, calories, workouts, flights of steps, sleep and has a clock on it, but you have to push a button to see the time. We find a lot of the wrist Fitbits at work, they fall off your wrist. A friend has one and has started wearing it…

I am so moved by these posts. Jean, how nice for niece to honor your daughter. Wow 900 and 1,000 calories a day! Good luck, I have a hard time staying at 1,200. Another snow storm coming tomorrow. I've packed a bag and will be staying in a hotel tomorrow night so I can get to work on Thursday, then off Fri and Sat. Had to…

I'm in. I will do my neck, back and hip exercises. Cannot promise steps at this point w/ankle/leg. Will do what I can when I can.

I got on the scale two days ago and was down 1 pound. I think that is a total of 5 pounds for me this month, that is good for me. I'm supposed to lose and addition 10 pounds in three weeks at a Wellness Challenge I joined at work. That is not going to happen. I had planned to exercise 60 minutes a day. My ankle is better,…

More Congrats! to you Charlie!!! You have taken control of your life! in such a positive way. I bet you feel on top of the world. I signed up today for a program through work called "Naturally Slim". Has anyone heard of it or been involved in it? They is a limit to how many they will take into the program, so I don't know…

Today I am grateful to my husband, Ron, who is supportive (sometimes too much), encouraging and fun.
-
According to my scale, I stayed the same. My Fitbit shows I should be down .7 of a pound. My scale doesn't weigh in 10's, so ---maybe next week I will have some happy news to report! Joni

Welcome back! Joni

Today I am grateful for two days off to relax and get caught up on sleep.
