Glad to see everyone and their goals going good. Keep it up. Here is my check in and Friday fitness. I have available e lost a pound this week. Every little bit helps right. Last night I swam with the kids a bit, then after they were in bed I swam some more. Like 2 hours. Today I relaxed and layer in the sun for an 1.5…

@Nikion901 Yes I do have water retention problems. I take medicine for it. Sadly all the meds I have to take each morning should be counted as a meal all by itself. :( I do try my best to limit the carbs I eat as they are not a friend of anyone trying to loose weight. Sometimes I have 20 or less carbs a day. Sadly I am not…

@trinati2001 I wish that could be how it was in my case also. But all I drink is water (except yesterday I drank 2 diet cokes lol) but Usually I only drink water a lot. As for the salt I don't usually eat any salt and the salt I do eat is sea salt I have swelling all over my body so I try to stay away from all salt. I am…

So sorry I haven't been around lately. I get annoyed with not loosing and it makes me depressed. But I'm back now and trying. Tomorrow our pool liner will be installed and I can finally do the physical therapy exercises I am supposed to be doing. :) and cool off in the heat...that's always a pluss. ;) I have gained 3lbs…

@celtikgirl - it's not easy but if your consent you can train your dog not to do those things that are not acceptable. If you have a local Pet Smart in your area they have a low cost training class. Strangly enough I watched a lot of the dog whisper and got a lot of good tips on how to train my dog. Every dog is different…

@sisijamison First congrats on the birth of your son (a year late but..) I to have gained a lot of weight quickly. After each of my kids I found it was very hard to get the extra weight off. But it wasn't anything I was really worried about. (back then) I quit smoking almost 3 years ago, and strangely enough that is when I…

Hello everyone. I wanted to let you know my Aunt is doing better. She is out of the hospital now. She is going to be going twice a week to get fluids, hopefully that will prevent her from getting that weak again. She did however loose 9lbs. A little on the fast side but she is doing better none the less. :smiley: I noticed…

@Sgt_Pepper33 I don't have a Fitbit. It cost to much. Mine is a copper fit. It doesn't hook up to wifi but tells me how many steps, and miles. It also tells me how many calories I burned including the bmt. It was $20 at walgreens.

@skinnyjeanzbound Thank you very much. I was able to keep busy enough to not eat all day lol. As for my Aunt she called this morning to say she in feeling better. They are still giving her some fluid but she may be able to go home today. :) I to have days where I just want to eat empty calories all day; well for me it's…

Welcome all that is new. I haven't been here long my self. I'm trying to read through the post but keep getting lost in text due to my mind being else where. My aunt was just taken to the hospital due to dehydration. She has cancer and has been taking chemo. So she is very weak. She fell earlier before I could get to her…

Thank you all for the feel better wishes and all. They are very much appreciated. I hope everyone is doing great this morning and has a wonderful day.

Afternoon everyone. I have been laying down most of the morning trying to relax my back. I felt ok when I got up until I sat down and went to get up. Go figure. Anyway upon weighing myself I have lost 2.8lbs. 12lbs so far. (Happy dance) I'm still not able to do much on the lines of exercise but I do wear a tracker. Through…

@KJEFFRIES2 I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Thank you for the advice. No I haven't heard of that before I may need to look into that. I would love to exercise in a pool but sadly it's not warm enough just yet. But soon

@MrWufpack You are quite welcome. I look forward to getting to know you. @RobinsEgg I am sorry I have not gotten the chance to know you yet. I can understand the troubles with going through depression, I have to battle with it myself. From what I see you have been light of encouragement to people here. I am sorry to see…

@MrWufpack welcome to the group. This journey we are on will make a better, healthier lifestyle for us all. @GOINSTD12 I haven't heard of that one. But I do have a prescription cream I put on every where I hurt. It helps a lot. But this time for my back, it's not working. I think I have thrown it out. If so all I can do is…

@GOINSTD12 - No I have never heard of Voltaren, but I am currently taking Lyrica. I have just started it though. My normal pain comes with fybrio-myliga and a few other things. The pain I am in right now is due to over doing it.. basicly my own fault because I knew better. But thank you for caring :smile: Just wondering if…

Hello everyone. I hope you all have had lots of laughs this April Fool's day. I played a n April Fools joke on my boys. I got some Krispy Kream donuts and extra boxes. I put a veggie platter in one and fruit platter in the other. It was sooo funny to watch their faces. I was nice though I told them were the donuts were. We…

@GOINSTD12 I have the same problem sometimes. For me it's late at night, (like right before bed) I get to feeling like I want something to eat. I know I'm not hungry but I still want it. I started making sure to give myself a little leeway and make sure I still have some calories by the late evening so I'm able to have a…

@Nikion901 I agree I also feel I'm on my own. I try not to get sidetracked though. I do also like offering encouragement to others and reading about others progress. It's a good thing to see I'm not alone with things I go through. Logging everyday does help me because I can see what I'm eating better. If I don't log I have…

Hello everyone. I have recently came back to try again. Medical issues have caused me to gain more weight than ever before. I have lost 9lbs in the past week or so but I have a lot more to go. But I have had to delete some friends because they stopped logging in. I am trying to add more friends that are more supportive. I…

Feel free to add me, I log in and comment everyday. I have done low carb before and some days I still do stick to the low carb side. Food is not limited at all. You just have to know what you can eat and stay away from. I would be happy to share some of my recipes if you like.

Here is one a friend sent me. I haven't tried it just yet but it sounds good. I also love fried cauliflower. You can fry it in a pan or deep fry it. both ways are a good snack or side dish. LOADED CAULIFLOWER You won't believe it's low carb!!! Ingredients: 1 large head of Cauliflower cut into bite size pieces (approx 6…

I just found this site today and I have around 120lbs to loose before I reach my goal. Feel free to add me.

Thanks Coolchick207. Yeah even my doctor is confused and scratching his head. I have had so many test it's not funny anymore. I have tried so many things and they only work for a little while. .. I'm used to writing down what I eat and when I exercise that's normal for me. Unfortunately, I have to find new exercises that I…

I found this site by accident to be honest and after looking around it a bit I decided to join. Everyone calls me Jade, It's a nick name that stuck. I have struggled with my weight my whole lift but to be perfectly honest I have never been depressed about it as I am now. The reason is I have never weighed as much as I do…
