  • Good luck Ashley and Brad. Hope you do well with your challenge today.
  • CW 219.2 ugh Hate to see that but it’s the truth. I just keep gaining. Don’t know quite how to turn this around. But I have to. Need to. I turn 60 in June. I want to be below 200. What do I need to do to get there? That’s what I need to figure out. Hubby and I took a walk today for about 1.74 miles. That’s a start. It was…
  • The scale is so bad. I may wait until Saturday. We’ll see.
  • @jugar & @EvMakesChanges – sending well wishes to your dad for a speedy recovery! Hope things improve for him. Anything I do this week, will make it a better week than it’s been. Totally off the rails. Clothes getting tighter all the time. Need to reel it all in. I know we have no where near the snow and cold of our…
  • Weigh in CW 217.9 PW 217 I know I haven’t been on but wow! 89 new posts!! I second you thoughts @YinxFed . But good to have an active group.
  • Friday weigh in on Saturday PW 217.7 CW 217 Both of these weights are averages as I’m still swinging around a bit on the scale. I’ll post more later. Must take down Christmas because Alexa won’t do it! 😉
  • I will weigh in tomorrow. Crazy week at school. Things are moving slowly through my body so hoping for better numbers tomorrow. 60 posts. Wew I have some catching up to do.
  • @Kali225 and @eggfreak My podiatrist recommended the exact same inserts. I have found that the sneakers have enough support on their own. I haven’t used the inserts in them. I will say I have found that in one pair of shoes I feel like I’m slipping out of my shoes with the inserts in. I have mostly worn my sneakers. I…
  • Good morning everyone! I love reading the posts from you all. I really looked at your steps and exercises. Very impressive. @eggfreak Hope you were able to get the slush out of the way for the birdies. And yes, cold here too. We had a dusting of snow, then frozen rain and ice. Must go out later to grocery shop for the…
  • Started the day with yoga with Adrienne for something different. It’s been a long time since I’ve done yoga. It’s very different from the Pilates I’m more use to. A lot of the same movements but slower. The pace is different. It was nice, but hard because I’ve been so inactive. I managed to exercise 4 times this week.…
  • PW 216-18. Not sure which I used. CW 217.7 We’ll see if I’m lower tomorrow. This is an average weight as there was lots of bouncing around. I can do better. First week back to work was hard. Got a little sloppy logging yesterday. Doing better today. Exercise is so hard when you work a full day and it’s dark. Will check…
  • Boy my weight is bouncing up and down two pounds at a time. We’ll see how this ends up. I may use an average. I feel bloated today. It was my daughter’s birthday today. So I did have a tiny piece of vanilla cake from Trader Joe’s. Had a quarter of a chicken cheesesteak. I feel stuffed now. But I did log my food and close…
  • Love reading all your successes. @lauren_989 what phenomenal loss. Congratulations 🎉 I had a great day. I did 16 minutes of Pilates. Found a new park about a mile from my house. First time we’ve been there. It was beautiful. We did a little over a mile since it was our first time out in a long time. There are 127 protected…
  • Happy New Year! I fell asleep but woke up 30 seconds before the ball dropped. Started the new year with a 15 minute Pilates workout. After not doing it for so long, it was certainly harder than it used to be. But it was a step in the right direction, right? Caught up with people I love for over two hours in the phone. A…
  • Hello friends! My name is Michele. I’m 59 years old, married with two grown children and one beautiful granddaughter. I live in the Philadelphia area in Pennsylvania USA. I have been with Waistaways since February 2019. Wow! I’ve been fighting my weight for all of my adult life. Lost and gained. Hit Lifetime long ago with…
  • January starting weight 217.4 Thanks for the encouragement Evelyn! We CAN do hard things! 🙂…it’s just hard. Lol
  • Hello all! Missed you. Count me in for regular team in January. I’m with you @ashleycarole86 My biggest goal is to end the YEAR and MONTH (January) lighter than I started. I have most definitely had that photo that makes me feel bad about how I look. It has been motivating in the past. But speaking of motivation, I am…
  • 👀Just popping in to say Hi. Sorry to hear you have covid @jugar. Wishing everyone who celebrates a very Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
  • Popping in after being a ghost. @jugar please put me on support for December. My head is not in it. I will be back, but need a break. Hoping to find some new energy for this journey real soon. Too many posts to catch up on. Wishing everyone well.
  • CW 215.5 I know I have been MIA. Or maybe MII ( missing in inaction). Will try and catch up on posts soon. I’m considering going to support for December. I know it will be more of what it’s been. My mind is busy elsewhere. I did get a new Pilates mat hoping it will entice me.
  • The sneakers are Brooks Ghost Max. I feel like I’m walking on air. My foot is not in awful pain at the end of the day, doesn’t feel numb or like it’s burning. So much better. My hip is also much better. Still there but I’m not limping. My rose 🌹 (win) for the day was that I watched my new grand kitties while my daughter…
  • Weigh in CW 214.5 I think that’s the same as last week. This week has been crazy busy at school and home. My cold has revved up again or I got another on top of the last one. Occupational hazard. My colleague told me today that she tested positive for Covid. So one more thing on the list. My daughters in laws are coming…
  • Sorry to hear your trip had a big hiccup Ashley and Brad. Hope you get home soon and can feel rested and back on track. @jugar glad to hear you and your son arrived in NC just fine. Say hi to my son down there in Charlotte. :) @Gidgitgoescrzy I have been thinking of you the last couple days as I do stomach vacuums. I just…
  • Of course my weight is down today, not my weigh in day. Did some stretching and Pilates first thing mostly to help this body gain back some flexibility. It’s one small thing. I also had a pedicure and manicure. The pedicure was more therapeutic than to have pretty toes. I had a tender spot on my toe and the pedicurist took…
  • Aww @ashleycarole86 you are so sweet! Thank you for that I appreciate it and you, of course. I think you are pretty incredible too. Thanks also to @jugar @MaddawgMadsen @CarolAnnM2 @Kali225 @cleaneater80 @lauren_989 and everyone!! Thank you all for your photos, kind words and support. I really do appreciate it and I am…
  • I might as well face it. It’s been a hard three years. Here is my low photo and a higher side photo. Not sure what my exact weight was on photo day. But this is where I am. The thinner photo was my low right before the pandemic and two moves. AND I think I’m wearing the same sweater. 😕 Oh and MFP was kind enough to tell me…
  • We got our class photos back today. I was wearing the same thing today as in the photo. I was a bit shocked and sad. I must have reverse body dysmorphia because I didn’t think I was that big. I shouldn’t be surprised there are plenty of other signs - scale, tight clothes. I was telling my husband how bad it looked and…
  • Steps if I’m not too late.
