Hi all! I spaced checking in yesterday because after work I was really busy - donated blood, then went grocery shopping, and then walked for about 45 minutes (slowly - nothing too strenuous due to the blood donation). Things are continuing to go well - I'm excited that I'm freshly stocked up on good food, and have meals…

@mytime6630 - that all sounds so hard! I'm glad your daughter is okay, and I hope your tax situation gets sorted out. I had a heck of a time getting my tax refund from the IRS for 2019 due to filing as a widower - I was not particularly impressed with the IRS based on my experience. "Food just makes me feel worse, not…

@amandamonsterrr - congrats!!!! That is so exciting! I'm about 25 lbs behind you but am really hoping to drop out of the 200's myself within the next few months.

Oh man, getting called out at work is nooo fun. For me, I have acknowledged that I will not always feel positive or have a lot of energy, so I do everything I can to build in easy options that make it as effortless as possible to stay on track. Easy to access/make meals and snacks that fit in my plan and that I'm not…

Hi all, just checking in for the day. Hope everyone's week is going okay. The scale isn't cooperating, so I'm just going to keep on focusing on my food choices and exercise, and eventually it should start going down again. I had another good day today - I resisted fast food despite being out & about for a chiropractor…

I got up this morning and walked for 15 minutes first thing! :) My goal is to eventually wake up earlier & walk/jog longer, but I am a chronic snoozer and have so much trouble getting up early in the mornings, especially working from home. Baby steps!!

@lcyfrnxo - welcome! @ClearNotCloudyMind - glad I was able to cheer you up a little! Hi all - checking in for the day. Had a pretty good day! I ate reasonably and pushed myself to jog 3.6 miles today, plus some walking to warm up and cool down for a total of 4 miles. It felt really good. :smile: I'm determined to get up at…

Go to bed at 9:30pm, wake up at 6am 10:30pm/7am Log…

Today was a weird day. I had my annual physical at 1pm - I didn't think about the fasting bloodwork when they sent me that appointment time, so I went about 18 hours without eating, between my sleep time and then the time leading up to the appointment. I was quite hungry by the time it was over. I tried dealing with it…

Hi all! I hope it's okay to join-in? I've been looking for an active thread where folks check in daily and interact. :smile: I'll try to go back and read some of ya'lls posts after work tonight. (Updated to add: Friend requests are welcome! My profile is filled out and my diary is open.) My name's Trent, I'm 37 from…

I'm half way to my mini-goal! Weighed in at 227.2 this morning. So excited! I also realized that when I hit 225, not only will I be <40 BMI, but I will also have lost 10% of my starting weight (since 11/23/2020).

Good to hear about everyone's weekends! I ended up walking a total of 7.5 miles outside between the two weekend days. I'm pretty much on track with my 1000-mile goal this year - 26.5 miles so far, and if I were getting them in exactly evenly I'd be at 27.4. Last night I baked an egg casserole (eggs that have been whisked,…

I realized that the pants I was wearing today, which used to be uncomfortably tight while sitting, but wearable, are slightly loose! I walked 4miles outside in them, and I kept having to adjust them.

Woo - I just got back from a 4 mile walk in the chilly just-under-freezing late afternoon. I am thrilled to discover a pedestrian gate very close by to the wildlife refuge that's a few blocks from my house. I can't believe I didn't know about it sooner! They have somewhere around 20-30 miles of trails I can walk on there -…

Hi all! I had a good day today - I'm so glad it's Friday! I made some delicious butternut squash soup in the crockpot (the squash, carrots, celery, sauteed onion/garlic, spices, water, and I added coconut milk at the end - all blended smooth). I'm getting ready to go do some walking, and then it's to bed. I'm so excited to…
