  • Looking for serious, daily loggers with open diaries and profile pics (I like to know who I'm interacting with) who don't judge. My diary is open to friends. 389 days logged, 45 pounds down this year with a few more to go in 2020. Hit the gym a couple times a week but will do more next year when my office hours change. Not…
  • Just sent a friend request. Pushing to get 3 more pounds gone before the end of the year!
  • I'm on my 3rd Fitbit Versa. First one I ordered last December. It died three months later. They replaced it for free but it took two weeks to ship. Second one died three months later. Again, they replaced it for free but I complained hard enough and they expedited shipping to two days. This third one has been glitchy…
  • Looking for serious and motivated friends who log daily and have open diaries. I've had some fantastic friends all year but many have become really inconsistent with logging and posting and my feed is slowly dying. I'm 350 days in with my logging today and 4 pounds to go before the end of the year then I will re-evaluate…
  • Request sent.
  • Right there with you. I'm also looking for some new gal pals who can have a little fun, log every day, have an *open diary* and are not "judgy" ;) My diary is open to friends, I log everything, everyday and exercise a 3-5 times a week. I also take the time to actually comment on my friends updates and progress every day as…
  • Couldn't agree more! In 2013-2014 I lost 50+ pounds doing exactly what I'm doing now. Had a major life change when I moved across country and gained most of that back but I'm back in the game. My calories are set at 1500+. I eat, exercise a few days a week, enjoy my adult beverages and still lose weight. Anyone who is…
  • Last night I cooked an extra spicy pork stir fry. Today I whizzed up some black beans, sour cream and jalapeño's for wraps along with raw veggies for lunch and for breakfast for the week I scrambled eggs and sautéed some zucchini. Tonight is chili rubbed steaks, Tex-Mex coleslaw and baked spicy sweet potato fries.
  • Saw another little dip in the scale this morning. That makes two for the week (I weigh every day and watch the fluctuations). Wednesday is official weigh in day for me so I plan on being super focused the next few days. Water was miserably low yesterday so I've got my water bottles all lined up and ready to go. Hope…
  • Mexican Squash Casserole for dinner tonight. Frozen Blueberry and Greek Yogurt Bites for desserts for the week.
  • I'm in. Been back on MFP for about a month or so now. Lost 50 back in 2013-2014 then moved from Florida to Utah. The adjustment has been difficult (Man I hate the winters here!!). Started off by getting back in the habit of logging everything. Then added water to my list. Now I'm focusing on eating more veggies which will…
  • Start Weight - 191 Goal Weight - 140 - 150 12/24 – 191.8 - totally expected this gain and expect more to come in the next few days so I'm not bummed about it. Husband and I are partied out and will be having a quiet dinner at home tomorrow. I'm making grocery list for the rest of the week and will be heading to the store…

  • Today a large dish of Escalivada (Spanish slow roasted vegetables). Rainbow of colors and so beautiful to look at. Will be veggie side for the next few days. Dinner tonight is lightened up Chicken and Broccoli Casserole. Winter storm moving in with single digits on the way. Seeking comfort food to warm the bones.

  • @quiltingjaine ...thanks for the words. Yes, ice is ice no matter what you drive but especially for me since I'm a Florida girl now living in the mountains. <--Silly Girl!! I put a bumper sticker on my back hatch to let everybody know I'm a Florida driver. I don't think most drivers have any sympathy for me since most of…

  • Still struggled with water today but got in a little more than yesterday. I did chug my smoothie so I had more time to drink water but I was so busy I didn't reach for it as often as I should. No exercise tonight. First time using the dvd in forever and I felt it last night so took tonight off so I don't over do it too…
  • Thanks for the thread, Ros! It's therapeutic for me to discuss my day as well as fun and interesting to get to know my other pals and learn of their triumphs and struggles! I did good today. Pre-logged all my food so I knew where I stood by the end of the day. As for my goals, I logged everything, came straight home,…
  • My goals for January: 1) Log everything - good / bad / ugly and slowly bring myself back to my calorie levels (it takes me time to get back in my groove) 2) Water, Water, Water 3) Come home from work, immediately change clothes and walk to Leslie Sansone dvd at least twice a week - even if it's just 5 minutes! Ros - can we…
  • Hi everyone! I saw Ros' post on one of the boards and followed the trail to here. I'm LB, a transplant from the warm, sunny beaches of Florida to the cold, dry mountains of Utah. In 2013 I lost about 50 pounds but the stress from the move and adjusting to this alien environment took it's toll and I gained a lot back. Can't…
