  • Hi, my name is Lucy and I live in TN. I was originally diagnosed with T2 in 2009, joined MFP then but quickly gave up. I never really took my health that seriously, but last year I decided to really try to do better. This time last year my a1c was 9.3 then after 3 months of working at it it was 7.2. I am due to go back for…
  • Can't say that I was super active before but I had joined this in 2009? and have checked in a few times since. Back in 2009 I was 42 lbs. heavier. I need to lose at least 50 more and get my blood sugar a1c down so here I go again. Day one for me too.
  • Hi everyone, I haven't posted lately and I am having a hard time reading all the posts but I love reading them all. It makes me realize I am not alone. I had a pretty good week and if I can believe my scale I lost 6 pounds. Time will tell. I didn't walk today but I did carry five wheelbarrows full of wood and stacked it in…
  • Hi everyone, I am tired. Got home from work about 2 hours ago and have got dishes done and supper cooked and just want to rest. Could walk this morning for exercise so guess after I eat I am going to try to get on my exercise bike to ride. It'll probably be easier on my feet. I am afraid I may have a bone spur on my left…
  • I've got an Omron too. I think it is very good. I have tried some of the cheaper ones $5 to $15 and never could get consistant results. Mine Omron cost a little over $50 but mine will store up to a month and is downloadable to my pc. I like that so I can keep better track of what I am doing. You can wear it on your waist,…
  • Hi everyone. I would like to join your group and get my weight loss re-started. I lost 30 pounds from end of August to Thanksgiving but since then have almost gained 10 pounds back! I had quit walking and watching what I eat, so I know what I did wrong and I am ready to get back on track. My goals are going to be small but…
  • Hi, I'm Lucy, 50 and definitely not new to dieting. I am restarting again! I had lost 30lbs. last year but have been gaining, as my ticker shows. I am going to start logging in my food daily and I started walking again today. 30 minutes, not fast but steady. Hopefully between this site and my pedometer I'll get the…
  • OK, my weight went down from last week but still not where I was when I started, but at least I'm headed the right way now. Current weight - 212.2 lbs. Water - 5/7 Cardio 2/7 Hopefully the counting calories will get me going. I need to do it but am not real consistant, so the challenge is on! Thanks.
  • OK, I put off the truth long enough. I actually gained a lot. My week 2 weigh in is 215.0. I am thoroughly embarresed and ashamed (and I can't spell either) :embarassed: :frown: I am so proud of how everyone else has done. I'll probably never be the biggest loser in the group but I'll keep trying. Thanks CC for everything.…
  • Ok, looks like I might be first. I weighed this morning and my starting weight is 211.6 pounds. You also said to let you know if our name is spelled wrong. You left the "i" out of juicyplum - but no big deal to me. Good luck everyone!:smile:
  • I'd like to join in even though I never get to watch the show.
