Happy New Year Ladies! This has been and awsome and supportive group to get me to this point. But since I returned to posting in October the posting and support has dried up. There is a group that is posting regular goals with eating and exercise, and they have started a recipe thread. There are some that are over 200…

Sounds great! You name the new goal... Note to self: You lost 3 lbs. in November so now you are RE-losing those darn pounds for the third time! Get your head back in the game. Nobody will do it for you. My pants are TIGHT and I'm NOT going to go back up a size. I realize I'm still ahead of where I was two years ago now is…

Hi ladies! Welcome to all the new faces. What a great and stressful time of year all at the same time. Christmas was and the activities leading up to Christmas were perfect.

lildebbie it is good to see you! I think that we all know how hard it is to find and keep a balance in this journey. But I do better and feel better if my calories, exercise, and water are on target. Good for you for recommitting :-) shelle your mind set changes as you learn better ways and you start to feel better about…

So happy that you gals had such a great day. Way to go on your accomlpishments. I know that Dr. Phil takes about 'eat to live vs. live to eat'... that was an eye opener for me because I centered so much of my social life, and finding comfort with and from food. Have a crummy head cold and was worn out after grocery…

I'm down 1 lb. and I'm a bit surprised but I'll take it. mstalh and shelle sorry about the challenges of post Thanksgiving food but those few choices don't undo all the strides forward. Pull up your boot straps and…

Wow nice to see a committed group. My goal is to log everything Monday through Friday and it depends on how hectic my Saturday is. For me I need a mental break from logging in. On Sunday I will weigh or measure some food item to help me with portion size, and this is working well for me. Well on my way to downing the water…

I started that last post over a half hour ago and I had so many interuptions that I missed mstahl and Heather. mstahl way to win the morning battle. I'm afraid if my husband said lets go to breakfast I would have said 'I'm already in the car'. Don't let the scales discourage you. Your coat feels looser and you are seeing…
