Connie, My lowest was 177 in 2015, but I am at 195 now. I have been in the 190''s for awhile, still down 40 pounds. I would be thrilled to get to 169 this new year. That's only 26 pounds, easier said than done. Janice

Connie, I agree, I have just been maintaining , after a small gain, still under 200. However, this isn't what I wanted but after going on 5 years, I need to lose again. Good luck Janice

Hi, I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. Ours was good, my kids, my grandchildren and their mates all came over Sunday to celebrate. My daughter is going to have a c-section Friday, if not before then. She is having a boy, that makes 5 boys from my 2 kids. His name is going to be Deacon. I hope everyone is doing well.…

Hi, Checking in, Nov5- 196 Nov12- 194 down 2 pounds. Hopefully next week down a couple more.

Happy Birthday Marie and Connie !! I know it's early, but I didn't want to miss it. I hope you enjoy your day.

Happy Birthday, just restart after your birthday. I personally didn't rely on friends for my journey, for my motivation. I did read the forums and replied on occassion. I lost 57 pounds that way, also by counting calories and later getting a food scale. Goodluck on your restart. You can do it.

Marie, glad you are doing better. That's so good that you have Alice, to help you and Jerry, with everything. Cold and rainy here today, yesterday we had family pictures taken, with my husbands family, at a park. It was so cold, but at least it didn't rain and we got it done. It was my husbands family and there are six…

Hi, Marie I hope you are feeling better now. Take care. Hi Connie and Nancy, I hope all is well. Janice

Hi, I just wanted to tell you all my good news, I went to the cancer gyno, last week, and she said everything is still good. It was a like 100 pound weight off my chest. In June the radiologist was concerned abut something, but she said it was good. Thank you God. I hope everyone else is doing good. Janice

Hi all, my son Chris' new baby boy, arrived on Laborn Day, he is adorable. My daughters baby boy, will be here in late December. Time sure flies.

Congratulations, what an accomplishment.

Hi ladies, my Dr visit wasn't great, I have some abnormal tearing, however he doesn't feel a mass and doesn't think it's malignent. He wants me to go sex free for a month and see if it heals. I go back in September. Hopefully things look better then. Janice

Food frenzy

Thank you! Janice

Restaurant food

Marie, I would put a little basket or something like that on the dresser and make sure he puts his wallet and keys, etc, there, everytime you come back from being out, on your errands, first thing. Even if you do it when you get in. I'm sure easier said then done, just an idea, trying to help. I go to the doctors Thursday,…

Hi ladies, I just caught up with your discussion. I have been busier lately, I have 2 babies coming, one from my son's fiance and my daughter found out she was mothers day. One baby due in September and one in January. I know my son's baby is going to be a boy, so I have been out getting baby boy clothes. We don't know the…

Hi Marie, I had a doctor appointment today and I am still in remission, thank god. I was worried, but I am a worrier. My weight is up but I am still 40 pounds down from when I started MFP. Not that I know I'm okay I can concentratell on losing weight again. Janice

Hi all, I recently made an account to do the pick up at Walmart, too. I haven't used it yet, but I plan on doing sometime. It would be handy. They have the same thing at Kroger too, which is normally where I shop. I haven't used theirs yet either. I normally like to walk around in the grocery and look at everything. I'm…

Hi Marie, Glad to hear everyone's doing well. I am going to be a grandma again, we just found out recently. This will be 3rd total for my son. Hoping for a girl, this, time. My daughter is doing good too, even though she is getting a divorce. In a couple weeks, on Valentines day my husband and I will have our 21st…

Merry Christmas to you, I hope you and your family are doing well.

After losing and then gaining 15 back, I am now at 193, 40 pounds is a good goal for me. Also I am 5'5, too.
