Steps for 12/13 11,354 For 12/14 7750 Phew. I think I am caught up. Tomorrow I am going to try going to Zumba class through the Y but zoom. Just so I can do it from home. I braved the scale this morning for a mid week scale check, and I am losing, so I am going to try and relax. Not relax on my goals but just in my worry.…

@dsgoingtodoit Great loss, and sending comfort to you and your family as you grieve.

I had a great weekend. I did not track for two days but was as careful as I could be. I also only got 1900 steps for Sunday. I spent time with my MIL and then drove 4 hours, concert at church, out with the family. Honestly I don’t think I could have done differently. So I think I am going to re-phrase my commitment for…

Middle of night check in. Uff da. Too many cookies. Only 4500 steps for 12/11 Lots of driving. I’ll be back at it in the morning for sure!

Early morning check in on this grey winter day. Keeping moving will help me keep warm. Meetings and reunions and meals on the agenda. Shouldn’t natural introverts get steps for extended social occasions? 😂😂 It is like family, the good kind, so I know I’ll have a great day but will be worn out. So put your feet up and fire…

MeowScout Friday WI PW 252.5 CW 251 6000 Steps today. Yay! Happy for a good week. I am out of town for the weekend—whew what a drive in the rain and fog to Racine Wisconsin. I am an associate of the Racine Dominicans and I have not come to a gathering in a long time. So after a long drive and a busy day, guess who is…

Easy eating day today, just not very hungry. I ate oatmeal for dinner to stave off any cravings later and then left the kitchen. Sometimes I send one of my kids to get water for me if I’m worried I might be snacky while I am in there! But I was definitely not feeling the exercise today. Which is why I am pacing around my…

A great day today! Tracked, 7400 steps, 30-minute workout! Also, my scout pants fit with thermals underneath. Three weeks ago, they did not!

Hey everybody! I feel 100lbs lighter - I got my cut! I promised myself that if I could get on track then a haircut could be my reward. It was time to have a hairstyle again besides just "long" so now it is shoulder-length and styled. It is important to feel good about your body as it is now even when working on a…

6000 Steps in. Did a walk video from my the WALK app on my tablet while dh and I watched basketball on TV. This was my first time doing a video with him around! I see more sports WALKing in my future!!

My Introduction December 2021 My name is Lisa, 47, 5'2", HW 257, CW 252.5 GW 160, so that I can do "High Adventure" Scout Trips summer 2023 UGW 130, within BMI healthy weight. Right now that is hard for me to imagine. December SW 252.5 (12/3/2021) December Goals: Track all food, 6000 steps, 30 min daily activity/exercise,…

Evening Check in ✅Steps: 6500 ✅Tracked I won’t say the day has been easy, but I am so happy that I am sticking to my little goals. I went caroling to the city fire station with my Cub Scout pack today and picked up steps as a side benefit!

At /Under Calorie goal ✅ 6000 steps ✅ Zumba at the Y! A fun Saturday, where I stayed on track. I want to break the hold that denial has had over me. I can change my habits bit by bit, for a better life. Let’s do this! Go December Downsizers!

Howdy! I ate a little weird today, but tracked and came in at calories. Still, diet soda is junk! 🤪 Tomorrow back to yummy healthy. I also went to Zumba this morning which is a great way to get 6000 steps out of the way first thing! Speaking of discord ( @goal06082021 ) I have just gotten onto it recently for NaNoWriMo. Is…

Friday Weigh In! PW 254 WI 252.5 (-1.5) I survived today! I had a light breakfast and lunch, and then had pizza. But this evening I was hungry. I took a page out of my olden days WW toolkit: celery and tomatoes and yoghurt ranch dressing. So 100 cal over but I met all my other weekly goals and even got 6800 steps in. I…

Friday Weigh-in! PW 254 WI 252.5 (-1.5) Yay!! And now to stay dedicated through the weekend!!

“Who doesn’t like to warm up those thighs?” 😂😂😂 6419, phew!

I tracked today, and I am going to finish out 6000 steps. I had a weird moment earlier today. I really did not want to eat. I was hungry in my body, but not "feeling" like messing with it. I did not want to overeat or eat poorly, and I was tempted just to skip dinner. Instead, I cooked 2oz of pasta, threw on some mixed…

Happy Thursday. Tomorrow is my WI day, my first "weekly weigh-in in a long time. I did get my 6000 steps in yesterday, also a first in a VERY long time. 1000 more to go for this evening, but I am going to finish. I better get a move on if I want to have a decent bed time! Night!

Your mother sounds like a real hoot! I'm happy to be accompanying you on this first part of your journey to get there!!

In BSA Scouts lingo, a High Adventure trip is at one of the several official High Adventure Bases. I don't know which one our Troop will do then, yet, but we do a high adventure trip usually every other summer. This summer we will have one week of Summer Camp and then later we will have an extended weekend Canoe-through…

Hello all. I am new here in MFP and in this group. I have been using Leslie's WAH for a while now. For a long time, I would find her videos here and there on YouTube. Then a year ago I found the $5/Month subscription, and it has been a lifesaver. No more arguing with myself about whether or not I like the weather well…

Maybeeeeee staying up late isn't the best way to keep my tracking going (4 days!), so I am making every effort to get to bed sooner tonight. So it looks like y'all were doing a three-month challenge for the holidays. Is there a group goal for December?--like "just hang in there for the love of all that's holy!" 😁 I will be…

Just dropping in to say “I tracked.” Since right now that is my only goal, I give myself a pat on the back. @justanotherloser007 I love your statement that the rails are there. Yes, I didn’t realize how much anxiety I was feeling by my efforts being all over the place. The rails are there, and even if I have moments where…

I am going to try to post regularly as I get back on track. I tracked today, and I can’t believe it. We had our family TG today, just my husband and kids, and I tracked ahead of time, did not skimp, and stuck to it. I wanted seconds, but didn’t. It is always a truth that my husband can eat more than I can. Soon my 11 and…

Saying a prayer for you all today!

Lisa, 47, 5’2”, SW 155 11/27 154.5 Hello everyone! I need help, and that’s why I am here. I am not giving up. With only a few days to go, I believe I can manage to track for the rest of the month. Any words of wisdom from when you finally got going on losing weight?
