  • Have stuck to my current plan for three and a half weeks. The clothes are already fitting better again. Only about three to four months to go. :)
  • Finally finished most of my decorating today. The house is starting to look more festive. Also, did some cleaning and now I'm ready to watch a movie and go to sleep. Sweet dreams, Marcella
  • Two and a half weeks until the new year. I began this year at 161. I worked to lose down to 155 and then maintained at about 159 for a while. Late summer early fall, I allowed my weight to start to climb. It toped out at 169. I'm happy to say, that as of yesterday, I am back to the 161 where I began the 2016 year. This…
  • Lin - I think you wise for giving thought to the request for additional volunteer duties. Sometimes, there is someone else who would be perfect but no one has thought to ask them yet. :) Home office/laundry/kitchen organizing day. Enjoyed a quiet but efficient morning and looking forward to the afternoon being similar.…
  • Today I want to get a bunch of home office work done and remember to exercise during breaks. :)
  • I managed to get my 2 pound loss this week, but I think it may have been my hardest fought for 2 pounds ever. I sat down with my husband yesterday to analyze the week to see what was different. The two things that changed were (1) forgot to take my vitamins 3 days, and (2) did very little exercise. So this week, I will be…
  • @TristansHawk - Have you recovered from finals yet or are they still happening? @kefalo - Guess you're in Japan by now. Have fun! I managed to get my 2 pound loss this week, but I think it may have been my hardest fought for 2 pounds ever. I sat down with my husband yesterday to analyze the week to see what was different.…
  • Sandy - Love the picture. We have no snow, but it is cold here. I'm thinking it's a perfectly good day to stay inside in some snuggly clothes and keep warm. :) Marcella
  • Hello, I'm Marcella, December 2014, I started my MFP weight loss journey at 192.5 pounds. I am currently down 30 pounds from that number. For the 2016 year, I will basically end up about the same for the entire year. I have 30 pounds to go to reach my goal weight. Since beginning this journey/healthier lifestyle, my main…
  • SW 162.5 CW 162.5 GW 139
  • Wow! Love the pictures and the process. The table is amazing.
  • I've done well with my choices this week. Unfortunately, the scale has thus far not chosen to reflect my good work. Tomorrow is when I record my weight for MFP challenges. I'm counting on my efforts showing up in the morning when I step back on the scales.
  • Jackie - I have the larger Shark model for pets. Love it. Well, my husband found the perfect lamp when we went to the consignment store today. It was only about $15.00 and looks amazing. I love, love, love that store. Other than that quick outing, it has been a slow, lazy day. Right now, I'm all snuggled with my kitty…
  • I enjoyed sleeping late this morning. That was followed by two cups of coffee in bed while my son paced back and forth in the room talking about the songs he's mixing, ideas for future recordings and techniques for the best ways to capture an amazing acoustic guitar sound. The cat (curled up next to me, trying to sleep)…
  • I keep forgetting to post my loss on Friday. But I did weigh in yesterday. Friday 12/9/2016 I had lost 1.5 pounds Marcella Dec 9: 162.5 (1.5 lb loss) Dec 2: 164 (2 lb loss) Nov 25: 166
  • So far, the week has gone well for food choices and staying within calories. I still need to remember to exercise more. I'm a little disappointed that the scale hasn't moved much this week. But maybe the loss will show up tomorrow. Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend! B)
  • Today is milk day. Still have a bit more laundry that didn't get finished yesterday and then off to pick up my fresh milk for the week. I usually do my grocery shopping today also. But this week, I think I will wait until the weekend. After the "milk run", more time will be spent in the office. I want to make certain that…
  • Barbie - Sasha's rocking the winter fashion! Shirley - Safe travels. I will be working in the (home) office today. It will be interesting to see how much I can get done because I also need to work in some time for the laundry, kitchen, holiday decorating and a few other things. If nothing else, I've learned that I can do…
  • Barbie and Jake - So sorry to hear about Brandy. Sending deepest sympathy and hugs. Marcella
  • Good morning. Driving the hour and a half today to look in on the camper and to get my hair done. Still can't decide if I want to get it cut super short or leave it like it is. Either way, the color will look better when she is finished. On the way home, I will most likely stop at the outlet mall for some new sweat shirts.…
  • @TristansHawk - Wishing you all the best with your exams this week. :)
  • This has been an oddly busy week. I’ve missed spending time with you guys the past couple of days. Sandy - This information may be a little late for you, but… concerning the TDAP, Jim tells his patients that it’s a good idea for folks that are going to be around a newborn to be up-to-date with the TDAP, but mainly that you…
  • Today, I will: 1. Log everything 2. Exercise 3. Decorate
  • I forgot to post yesterday. (Crazy day) Friday 12/2 - Lost 2 pounds since last Friday! :) Marcella
  • tress29 - Sounds like a busy day. I'm thinking about asking my neighbor if I can borrow her dog to walk. Seems like it would making the walking more fun. So far this week, I'm doing well with my logging and sleeping. I'm doing better with remembering to exercise and lift some weights. Meal planning could still use some…
