Thank you! YOU are an AMAZING person! I am getting back to MFP after this summer pulled the rug out from under me- repeatedly... I will remember your words when I start to slip... because we are all beautiful! One of my main goals is not so much the 'weight' but to improve my health! Thank you!

I went to High School in Redding!

Just moved back to Santa Rosa area a year ago... I would love to meet others nearby!
-
I am desperately needing to meet local people too! If you need online support add me to friends... and we can muddle through the real world together :) lol. I am so into my routines that it is difficult (and intimidating) to put myself out there and meet new people... Good luck!

259 again this week. No change... but the positive is no gain... Hope everyone has a great week!
-
Wow. So today I weigh 259! I have never lost weight like this without medication! Not sure how I am doing it- except maybe being too broke to buy junk food! Lol! But I am appreciating it!

today I am 264. up one but better than I expected...

Thank you all for your support! I will weigh in tomorrow... and see where I am at. This weekend was kind of a 'break' for me... but a good one. My daughter and I went to the movies (with popcorn) then dinner and ice skating... it was a great day... and while I did eat much more than I should have (and didn't track) I…

Hello all... after last week (which was a really good diet/weight week for me)... this week has kicked my butt! Not as bad as I have been in the past- but worse than I should be! It has been one of the most stressful weeks I have had in a LONG TIME! a little history is: my daughter (7 yrs) and I moved to CA in Oct (where I…

Well, I am not sure about this weeks weight- it looks REALLY good, but I am not too sure... The scale I was using at school is no longer working (it was kinda iffy anyway) and the new scale I have at home says 264! Thats 10 lbs less than last week! I suppose its possible, I walked alot and was always under calories- but it…
-
I finally got a scale this weekend. I have been using the OLD one at work... and so far I really like it! Says I've lost quite a bit since last week- I walked alot and have been under calories consistently... I'm gonna weigh again at work tomorrow to double check... I will post then... :) Oh and the cold/flu/bronchitis…
-
Wow! I basically live in jeans (or equally comfortable attire) and the baggier the better! Well, yesterday I had to put up a pair that is WAY to big for me to keep wearing... falling down right after I put them on! And the ones I am wearing today are too big as well. I don't. Even have any belts because I never needed…

... and here's a good one for our not so great days... Unknown Author You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.

Here's another good one... I love quotes! Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives. Viktor Frankl

oops... I forgot to state my goals for this month. Lose 5 lbs (hopefully more but 5 will be a 'success'), and walk to work at least once a week (again- hopefully twice- but once will meet my goal)- the walk ends up being a total of 7 miles in 4 increments :) luckily the first is the easiest- then I am stuck without a car…
-
I just started recently and am trying to lose over 100 lbs (I try not to think of the total number yet- just the smaller goals) but its probably somewhere around 125-150... I have lost 4lbs recently and am VERY excited about that as I don't feel like I have been 'struggling' to lose it- and usually I have to fight for each…
-
Hey guys. Weighing in! Today I am at 273! Believe it or not that's actually pretty good for me. Hopefully I'll keep moving in the right direction! My goal is 1 lb/wk and I love that I am consistently well under calories daily! When I walk it is insane- I have like 1500_2000 calories left at the end of the day! Good luck to…
-
I'm in... I haven't lost anything since I started, (starting right before TOM probably didn't help)... But I am gonna do it! I walked once last week (rain & yuck other days- and I was sick) but my goal is to walk to work twice this week- approx 7 miles a day total! I will post on March 1st! Good luck to all!
-
I am checking in for the week... it's been rough! Valentines DID NOT help! But my weight is the same... 277. No less, but also no more... I now have a cold (yuck) but it is sunny today so I was able to walk to work!!! Supposed to be clear until Friday... Hopefully next weeks weigh in will be better!
-
Amy, I live in Sonoma County CA. I absolutely LOVE it! I spent the past 6 years in NC and apart from not having a very 'walking friendly' lifestyle, I never really adjusted to the climate there- the humidity did me in just walking to my car! But I am here now and making changes that have been a long time coming! I also…

I failed at all the challenges yesterday :( water- I WILL drink 10 cups today :). Exercise was tough because I started working with a new client yesterday so time was a little tight and it was RAINING, hard. I didn't get to walk and when we got home it was homework and bed for my daughter... Calories- I was doing really…

Okay, so I just weighed myself... I don't have a scale, and I wasn't able to access one at work until AFTER I'd eaten lunch... And I weighed 277. Way too much for me (I am 5' 11")... but I weighed 173 before the holidays... I know, I don't weigh myself much. I am going to weigh myself every other week... I am worried if I…

Anvy, I started walking a few days last week. I work at a public school campus and we had a short week- so I walked on Tues & Thurs. then we had friday off and my daughter and I walked on Sunday. This week it is quite rainy and I don't have a decent raincoat! I am in CA though- so it should hopefully clear up soon! The…

Welcome to MFP! I just joined yesterday... I have 'baby weight' from my 7 year old to lose! LOL The excuses we make huh? I live in Windsor CA. Just moved back in October and seriously making some lifestyle changes! Good luck!
-
I am new to this site but definitely interested in these challenges! I haven't weighed myself lately (I don't have a scale at home) but at the Dr's I weighed 273. I will weigh myself at work and post tonight. My goal for this week is to stay under calories and to walk to work at least once (it's supposed to rain all week)…

I recently moved back to Sonoma County CA, but I lived outside of Raleigh NC for 6 years.
