*sigh* As expected, I lost total control. Until this morning, I hadn't weighed in for over a month. This morning's weigh in finds me UP 16.4 pounds from my 2017 lowest back in September. :'( Even though I logged into MFP daily, I didn't log one bite of food since 12/5/17. Needless to say, I am pages behind with the posts…

I LOVE THIS!!! Congratulations!!! <3 You got this! Of course, follow your doctor's orders, but know you can have a healthy pregnancy and baby with minimal weight gain. I gained 11 pounds with my son (he weighed 9lb 15oz) and only 7 pounds with my daughter (she weighed 8lbs, 12oz). I lost 50 and 30 pounds, respectively.…

@KATRENAJ - welcome back! Your vacation sounds fabulous sans the knee problem. Don't fret too much just yet on the torn meniscus (if that ends up being the diagnosis). I broke my tibia plateau 10 years ago which also resulted in a torn meniscus. My Ortho said he wasn't doing surgery unless it became unbearable at some…

Well, I did it and I'm glad! I took one of my pooches for a walk yesterday. I don't know the distance we walked but it was around the lake in my complex and tallied about 2,000 steps. Since I struggle to meet my 3,000 step goal everyday, I was elated to reach 4,698 yesterday! This is quite an accomplishment for me for…

Personally, I don't intentionally eat back my exercise calories. I use them as a "buffer" along the way so that I don't stress about staying under goal.

Thanks!! :)

Lack of meal prep!! That has been my problem since hurricane Irma blew through 2 weeks ago. I typically cook 1 or 2 things on the weekend and prepare meals for lunch and dinner throughout the week. Between the prepared meals I might have some type of freezer food to throw together for dinner. I have not done that which has…

@Nikion901 - like a few others have mentioned, I use the mobile app for logging (love the barcode scan feature!) and prefer to use a desktop/laptop for posts. Double edge sword for me. I don't have a desktop/laptop at home so that leaves me with only being able to post while at work or struggling with posting from my…

First off, I am ok! :D As some of you know, I live in south Florida (Ft Lauderdale area) Lost power Sunday morning around 11:30am and it resumed Monday evening around 8:00pm. THEN lost power again Tuesday morning around 11:00am and it resumed again Wednesday evening around 8:00pm. Luckily, my mom (who is about 3 miles…

Luckily for me, the track for hurricane Irma keeps moving further west - no so lucky for @bapcarrier :( Be safe!! Until next time; wishing everyone Peace B) , Love <3 and Weight Loss :smiley: !!

@lydiapassthedonuts - glad to hear you are ok. Like @bapcarrier - I am also from Florida (southern) and felt the wrath of Wilma a while back. No where near the water you are dealing with but I lost my roof and had no power for 2 weeks. Hurricanes are NOT fun! @bapcarrier - I am so excited you stepped up for the next…

I don't typically have time to post outside of Wednesday weigh ins but I find myself with a few extra minutes. Thursday truth - I always think of this as confessions; to tell the truth is confessing - no? To confess then implies you have done something wrong. I always struggle with this on Thursdays. LOL Ok, moving on...…
