Is anyone doing or heard of ToneItUp.com ? It's a fantastic force of nature ! They have the web site, are on every form of social media , all free ... you tube workout videos . I bought the plan ( don't judge , I'm sure I'm the oldest girl on their site ! But , I need something to get me back on track) I haven't joined the…

@mrack1 sounds like we have had similar changes . I'm retired , but my friends all work . Still trying to find/ fill my time in a new place with meaningful stuff . I can only do so much art ! Have a wonderful day

This is my 86 year old Day who is visiting me in RI. I'm so thankful that he's here but the regional food favorites he likes to have are killing my diet ! Still I lost again this week but it's truly only the MFP community that has been keeping me on track ( & hitting it hard at the gym ) . He leaves Tuesday & it's really…

I still hate my arms in photos ! I'm hoping that another 5 pounds lost might help make a visual difference . Might have to look up how to pose arms in photos until then ! LOL

I'm so happy to have Lost this week because look at that table of fried food . This is at Evelyn's drive in in RI . One of my dads summer visit favorites . I've been hitting the gym hard to compensate for vacation favorites . But I'm so blessed that this 86 year old traveled from CA to visit me . Big all day pizza party…

I still managed to loose weight this week even with all the New England favorites I've been sharing with my dad . I've hit the gym hard to compensate . He leaves Tuesday & it's seriously DO Not Eat Out after that .

Well yesterday we turned this party ship of my dad visiting around . Instead of visiting we planted in my garden & cleaned the garage . No wine ! It was 8 pm & I was still going strong out there. Didn't even miss it ! You all were the key inspiration to my Day 1

I feel like I should take myself off the challenge because I've failed badly . However I find all of your comments so inspiring that I'm thinking that maybe it's the inspiration to start . I don't want to bore everyone with my story but you all are so right about the boredom. I'm retired at 56 so it's tough filling my days…

Oh August is proving to be a difficult month . Need to get my act together . My dad is here for another 14 days , if I keep up this eating out pace I'm going to look like a puffer fish !

This is Bella , trying to help me stay under 1200 calories

I'm 5' and finding it very hard to break a plateau .im so happy to have found you all for a boost of motivation

Well let's just say it's a new day & I need to start again .

I'm so happy I found this group & thank god it's active ! I'm back on MFP because I love the motivation that it brings ! It's inspiring to me & really represents true community . So many wonderful people all over the world . I love it & thank you for letting me be a part of your group . I at least hope I can interject…

Yesterday I hit over 15,000 steps . No gym but walking around Boston with my son was my playground !

I'm in too ! The more motivation the better!

Is everyone having a great August so far ? My dad just arrived for a couple of weeks & I'm going to take this time to hit the gym more while he hangs out with my doggie . I have a French bulldog who is personally insulted when I leave her home ! She is totally the boss of me !

Yesterday was a very good day !

Hello ! It's August ! Does any one have extra motivation to share ? Not sure if this thread is still active

So this is my 83 year old dad who flew from LA to Boston yesterday to hang out with me for 2 weeks ! His sister is 93 ! He is so positive , it's an honor & a blessing to have him here !

The more motivation the better ! Who doesn't need it . Count me in !

Well here we are 8/1 ! How exciting ! I went to the gym yesterday & did the 30 minute weight machine room at planet fitness . I had a PT for most of the spring & honestly I didn't feel like I was getting my $ worth . I've decided to stop that & put in the work myself & push harder . So far in the past 2 weeks its working…

My house is social party central & we go thru way to much wine ! I am in ! Not only will it help my weight , it's going to boost up my bank account as well . I just need to go put post it notes on my fridge to remind me No VO No !!!!

I sent you a message to add me . I hope I did it right , seems like it used to be so much easier to add friends . Anyway we share the same height & i know that feeling of loss , gain , repeat . I'm back on MFP again after some major life & location changes . I'd love to have a motivational friend . It makes all the…

It's 7/31 ,we are on our way to start August with our goals in site ! We are going to do this with gusto !

Logging constantly is my goal & getting to the gym 3 times this week . Also checking back here for all the fantastic support & motivation!

Well I'll just saying adding friends on an iPhone is not easy. I admit I am sometimes technically challenged but this morning trying to add you all has made me want to throw the phone ! Every time I try to message you to start the process it sends me to log in page again ! It's driving me to the kitchen Y'All ! Add me…

I'm hoping by joining this positive thread it will boost my motivation for the end of summer SW= 139.4 GW= 127

I'm trying to add you 2 as friends . I'm in a viscous cycle of the app redirecting me to open it again & again . I'll try a little later ! Time for tea & then the gym !

When I'm in the groove I love working out & when I fall away I have a hard time getting back . I would love to be part of your motivation & inspiration team ! Add me !
