Thank you all for the positive feedback. The evening was much better than the day and the munchies eventually went away, finally. So today is anew day and I am on spot for legal breakfast. The nice thing about the breakfast is that it oddly enough is something that I have never even considred for breakfast, so maybe…

I am almost in a panic at myself and a bit blue today! I have been posting quite a bit and thinking thinking thinking about weight loss. I am uber impressed with all that are losing weight, really really impressed thinking, How great you are! and then I look at my scale that is not budging at all; up down a lb or two but…

Calories under goal, watching sugar and carbs and staying in line. woke up today feeling light headed so drank more water water water and ate some deli roast beef and thin swiss cheese. More water, then ate breakfast of plain greek yogurt with fresh strawberries sugar free strawberry preserves and whole wheat almond crunch…

I loved this video. Such a red flag to know why we gain weight back. I imagine that you drop 300 calories a day and increase your exercise and you will probably find middle ground and stay at your same weight. Sooooooo much sensible info.Thanks!

Cat sitting for friends while they are away. It is just me and the cat and a lot of food. I went to store and bought all I needed and am dilifently logging all of my food and staying under calorie count of 1400 a day. It is challenging to tell myself no snack or food for a few hours or waiting a bit when I think I want to…

Been on vacation and enjoyed all the food, friends and family. Lucky me! But.....back in the saddle today. Went shopping for good food, tracking on the food site, and reading all the great things that all you women are doing in your lives. Need to walk later. Read an inspiration quote this week. Never go back! So cool to…

Sunday muchies! over calories by 297 but everything tasted so good! Little justification going on here!!! Husband recovering very nicely from surgery so I am pretty happy. Looking forward to weigh and measure on Tuesday. Have a good one!

Over for calories yesterday, byhaving two servings of vanilla wafers instead of one. I will take it as I was wanting something sweet but not outrageous. Looking forward to weigh and measure on Tuesday, but first have to stay on track this weekend. Steady, steady, steady!

working on staying under calories and climbing a lot of stairs for hubby recovery. But he is sleeping, sleeping, sleeping, sleeping, sleeping. He is behind on his sleep being a trucking driver trainer. He drives from midnight to noon while on the road and has to be up a lot while the trainee is driving, so lots of sleeping…

Well, I suppose it doesn't matter what your daughter thinks then? I am more concerned with what my children think than anyone else but it is difficult to read my children's minds. And as they say, what you 'do' speaks volumes over what you 'say'! But I also think that if you are overweight, and I have lived in…

I would not care about how other people felt, but I would really want to know how my daughter felt about my fatness. That can be a loaded question, but honest. You do not want it to be the gorilla in the room now.

Hanging in there with food choices each day, keeping calories under 1200 since Monday. Husband home; had eye surgery yesterday so I am nursing pretty much for next three days then he should be pretty much recovered. I forget what tooing and frooing can be. I am getting alot of stair exercise. haha and he looks much better…

Dear Laurie and Tanya, What are your goals relationship wise. I just remember thinking one year, I really want to move onto a permanent relationship and get married this year. So I only spent my free time doing things pretty much that put me in that venue. Dances, singles groups and activities, I guess now I would try…

Do you feel as great as you look? How has your mental journey been. Great job of course!

Social is the next line underneath the long line. Doesn't seem to be an edit button that I can find? Sorry for the confusion.

Today is weigh in and measurement day. My weight is up half a lb; 163.5, but my measurements are down 1.25 inches so that is rewarding and shows I am doing something right, maybe. hahaha I also moved to 5 lb weights in my Silver Sneakers class today; it was difficult but doable and I feel so pumped and energetic after…

Over calories yesterday, did not walk or do squat challenge yesterday, so I guess you could say I fell off the wagon yesterday. Today, thank you very much, is a new day. Enough said. See you tomorrow everyone.

Lori, 100lbs!, I am unber impressed. What a monumental feat, as well as anyone else on this site who has lost so much weight. Robin, loved your story and your wisdom at the moment when you realized things weren't quite all there. Love heals all eventually and you are in a good place. LaurieK- there are so many people in…

Walked 75 minutes this morning, ate well all day, lunch at the cheese cake factory and ate from the skinny licious menu and it was superb and much more real serving sizes. Went 11 calories over my 1400 limit but we do allow 100 over and still ok? Am in my last week of beginner squat challenge. Will begin the intermediate…

Friday Fitness - still walking an hour each day, although yesterday I did alot of shopping walking so only did 35 minutes in the evening. Still doing my 28 day squat challenge. It is my last week and then I move onto the intermediate challenge. I have to say I am enjoying the 'challenge' of doing them every day, or rather…

Looking forward to walking for an hour today and staying on track for food. With my new food choices of high potassium and protein I have discovered that my sugar intake has gone way down which I think is good. Also the cascading fatigue has pretty much vanished between more potassium and halving my diuretic pill I take…

Walked for an hour today up and down hills. Beautiful day, and so far under calories for 7/8 days. Whoopee, it is getting better and going well.

Trying to get my ticker in place. Not sure how successful I have been. I clicked on my picture and that too me to info about ticker. Not sure if that is correct.

Am away from home this week staying with friend. I was hoping to take my silver sneakers class at a gym in SLC, but my gym in the city does not offer the SS class. So this morning instead of an hour class, I decided to walk for an hour. My friends neighborhood is fairly old, house built in the 40's and 50's and 60's. All…

Over on calories for the day; sheer childishness on my par, I want it not the best nor correct answer. No excuses just the reality of the scale. On a positive note I walked three different times yesterday and it felt wonderful. YIng/yang/

I got up and walked this morning. The first day of a new or renew activity. Goal, realistic, is to walk three days, and maybe add a fourth day, plus doing my Silver Sneakers class two days a week. My calorie goal was at 1200 in order to lose 2 lbs. a week, but after serious discussion with my daughter, who has dropped 30…

A few year ago I lost 25 lbs before anyone said anything, so you sometimes think you look great but you are really ho hum. On a funny note my good friend from college lost 12 lbs over a period of a year and she has been going to the gym for the last five years pretty consistently. When I asked her how she lost the weight,…
