Weigh in Pw 223.6 Cw 224.1 Up a bit. Today too, but considering we ate out so many meals and a had a few cocktails, not bad. Off to do a bit of weeding. No real exercise yet. What is with me?!

Jackie @jguldi11 Heres a trick our former leader Liselyn taught me/us. When you have a sweet craving, eat a dill pickle. It really does curb the craving.

oh Yinka! Your sports bra wrestling gave me a good laugh. 😂 We’ve all been there. Exercise is where I really need to up my game. I will look into some of these videos. I think I may have done one of the 5,000 steps videos long ago. Back to logging my food. It’s a start. I remember long ago when I was working to lose…

Hi friends! Sorry for the disappearance…again. End of school year, Father’s Day, then we left home for a short vacation down the shore. I ate lots of seafood but we did eat out every meal we ate. A few drinks too. Lots of walking. Or at least more than normal for me. I’m up slightly today. I may wait until tomorrow to see…

Late again.. more later PW 224.1 CW 223.6

Thanks for the birthday wishes! Our dinner was beautiful and yummy. I went with the scallops. My coworker made cupcakes for me at work today that we shared with the kids. Very sweet of her. I did eat one but logged it. We also had lunch provided by one of our families. Tomorrow is last day with kids. Wednesday is a…

Friday weigh in (I know it’s Saturday) PW 225.4 CW 224.1 Good thing I used the higher weight. I think the lower was a fluke. Good start for not a perfect week. No exercises beyond my normal daily movement herding first graders. Birthday dinner tonight. I may have seared scallops or a Harvest bowl with chicken. Then the…

@lauren_989 Big high five to you for getting out to walk when you don’t feel like it. ✋🏼It feels so much better when you do. Used to love walking in my GSO neighborhood Starmount. It was pretty. I live in a fairly urban area now. Haven’t found my place yet. Thanks for the great suggestion regarding calories. That makes…

Well @gidgitgoescrzy I was there too. I logged all my food. Had 177 calories left and ended up having ice cream and a brownie. Why do I do this? Well, I do know the answer. Our nightly ice cream is a nightly habit for me and my hubby. I’m sure it’s my fault because my parents did it too. Anyway, today is a new day. And in…

Good day. Took a walk. It was in a grocery store but that counts, right. Logged all my food. So far so good.

Happy June team! It’s good to be back and hear your successes and challenges. I am almost 61, married with two grown children and two granddaughters. I teach first grade at a private school near Philadelphia, PA USA. I have been with this group since 2019. (More or less) I need to do this because I am at a new all time…

starting weight 225.4

Hi everyone! Hope your Saturday is going well. I need to give you my starting weight. I weighed heavier on Friday my standard weigh in day, but lighter today. Since it’s my starting weight and won’t effect the team, should I use the heavier weight so first week weigh in is better? What would you do? @lauren_989 Happy…

Thanks for the welcome back. I post a starting weight tomorrow. I think I will have my weigh in day be Friday.

<sneaking in> Hi everyone! Sorry I totally disappeared there for a bit. I think I’d like to join the team again for June. Like Yinka (Hey, welcome back!!!!) I can’t do this on my own either. I’m at an all time high and need to fix this before it goes any higher. New news - My Fitbit died. I’m never buying another again.…

I made a big post on the other chat before I realized it was closed. Booo. I don’t know why it gave me a box and post reply. Obviously, I missed my weigh in. Here are my steps. Congratulations to @ashleycarole86 and @bowens1973 How exciting for you. Good luck with the move and settling in your new home. Great loss Brad.…

steps

Happy Monday! It is drizzly and dreary here today. Logged my breakfast. Checking in. Don’t think I got to 7k steps yesterday. @Gidgitgoescrzy I love what you picked out. Very peaceful. Just think how much fun it will be to be cooking in there when it’s done. @strong_fit_ells Congratulations on cutting back your alcohol…

@lauren_989 It was definitely the donut. I drank water and got some exercise working out in the yard. Then felt better. I sure didn’t want any more sugar today! Lesson learned.

PW 223.2 CW 221.5 not sure if I believe this. That said, I just ate an icing covered jelly donut that my husband got me. I feel awful. My body is not happy. I am shakey and feel nauseous. My head feels foggy. I started to feel like that as I ate it and kept eating it. Why? It didn’t get better. It got worse. Why didn’t I…

checking in. I read half the posts. Be back later for the rest. While not perfect I’ve been better at logging my food. I got some wonderful time outside today cleaning up my garden beds. Makes me so happy but I was tired. Just had a good salad for lunch. Heading out to run some errands. Stay strong.

@Gidgitgoescrzy First, I love the green countertop plan. It’s my favorite color too. I had a green countertop when I redid my kitchen at my first home. I loved it. The cabinets sounds perfect too. Also, thank you so much for your thoughts on losing weight and menopause. I hadn’t thought about that. It has also been harder…

not Friday weigh in Pw 222.8 (I think) cw 223.2 Ugh! I’m so sick of this. I’m at my all time high. I know I’m not being great but menopause makes this a whole different ballgame. I know Liselyn said it can be done and I’m sure she’s right but it sure isn’t easy or more to the point anything like before I hit menopause. My…

I actually logged my food today. Hurrah. It’s been forever. Win.

Pw 221.5 Cw 222.8

Weigh in PW 222.5 CW 221.5 EXACTLY!! I’m right there with you pondering that one. Except cheese protein…that tastes good too but then fat! Oh well. Onward. Beautiful photos everyone! Thank you for sharing your trip pics. I am traveling vicariously through you all. I’m glad to see the loss, but not sure how this week was…
