I am here again, this time with a weight loss. It may be back up tomorrow but I did enjoy the scales this morning. Under my magic number, finally! I have not baked anything all week! I am eating fruit at night instead of pi, cake or cookies. I have walked a lot again this week and I am trying IF this week. Only doing about…

It has been a great Tuesday. I walked 20,858 steps and it is not bedtime yet. We grilled chicken tonight, new red potatoes, corn on the cob, slaw and french bread. I did NOT prepare a dessert. I made a deal with myself, if I do well all week I will bake my favorite lemon pie this weekend. I had blackberries for my snack…

I have had a busy start to September and way behind on my support of this great team. Welcome to the new members @long_for_me and @kandi3570. I have been here only a month and am still trying to get the hang of it. It is a great group! Congratulations to all the winners in August. I had no idea that I actually helped the…

Good morning maintainers, I slowly creeped above my magic number this week, so back at it! I did not bake anything all weekend. Sunday I ate a mandarin and a few green grapes as my night time snack. Last night, back to the grapes. I am also concentrating on lots of water throughout the day. Over 20,000 steps and 33 minutes…

YES PLEASE, I posted that on our group page awhile back. I know I will bounce up and down by about 3 pounds and don't want that to hurt the team. I love that I can still be part of the team as I maintain. I guess I still weigh in but would appreciate my weigh in day to be moved to Monday.

I am in need of a new pair of walking shoes, I guess all the walking I have been doing has taken its toll on my shoes and my feet. I have a narrow foot and according to the podiatrist a very slender foot without much fat on the bottom. Guess I lost weight in my feet instead of my butt. Also at my age (68 )every time you go…

pw 126.8 cw 128.8 looks like I need to eat light today. I am still in my maintenance range though. I try to stay between 126-129.

21,024 steps 8/29 beautiful weather here today. Hot and sunny but a nice breeze that made walking enjoyable.

@AustinRuadhain sounds like the elimination diet works for you, so far I don't know of any foods that bother me. My sister this for migraine triggers, sure was helpful. @Emmajhare I am also happy to have found this group. Many diet groups but when you get to maintenance you still need support. I hope my magic number idea…

raleighgirl09 Good to see someone back at this page, I have been checking but not a lot of activity recently, must the the summer month and school starting back.

@minstrelofsarcasm Thank you for the help, all good ideas! Well, with the exception of memorize, at my age that is not an option😍😁😉 I may try a picture soon. brown6267 I am enjoying the walking challenge with you

I am a new member of the team, 1 month in. I have been reading the posts but have not commented much yet. I am still trying to figure out how to maneuver around the site and to get to know some of you. I started writing a post this morning but when I went back to get names, I lost everything I had written. :( So much for…

@1theresamcvean So sorry for your loss, my prayers for you and the family. I am sure that you have so many fond memories and speaking at the service was a great tribute to your grandmother. Cherish those memories. Good that you could spent time with your sister, I know how precious that is. I saw my sister last week for…
