  • Hi, I know the month is half over but can I join? I just want to have a place to post to and try to be accountable. I am starting over. I did this a year and a half ago and lost quite bit but backslid and have to go through losing again. Are you going to do this next month as a posting place?
  • I'm game, I will weigh myself tomorrow morning and report in. It is how I lost weight the first time. Now I have to do it again. I miss all my skinny clothes!
  • I always have a scale and a 1 cup measuring cup handy. The scale only cost $20.00 so it was a good investment.
  • MM I think your questions are good ones too. Everyone has their own reasons to want to lose weight. But I do think we as people obsess about it or we ignore it and just get fatter.So where is the middle ground? Of course all the marketing ads would have you believe you have to be a size 0 to be accepted by the majority of…
  • I feel the same MM, I hate to throw stuff away too. I had three really ripe bananas and I made banana bread today and have had three tiny slices. So I will try to send it to work with my oldest tomorrow! My Oldest daughter and middle daughter work at the same University up in Burlington so I'm sure there are plenty of grad…
  • Hi girls, I didn't get near the computer all weekend I was out shopping. One way to get the walking in lol. Yesterday I was out of commission and for awhile I thought I had appendicitis but it was just a major case of gas. It bent me over double and made me feel sick. Today I got up and was a little tender but ok to go.…
  • Hi all, didn't play on the computer yesterday but did get my salad in and half my water and had a gift certificate for a day of beauty from my daughters so I used it and spent hours getting a manicure,pedicure,facial and a hair treatment. When they were finished I could have happily taken a nap. Did alot of walking while…
  • YEA VIVIA! You still did it even if you needed breaks! As for the coughing all I can say is honey lemon tea! Maybe a shot of jack daniels to numb the throat, lol. The school I work for( darn I don't work for them anymore, I can't get used to that. We work for a bus company now) has installed hand sanitizers beside the…
  • YES! Another successful exercise session! I have to pysche myself up for them but I feel better after I get them done. Vivia I hope you feel better soon, if I felt that bad for so long I would be at the doctor's too. CP congrats on dissing the donuts, and yeah Mary it is kind of weird we all joined around the same time but…
  • Hi I realized I didn't state a weight loss goal in my entry so I will try for 2 lbs in one week but would be happy with 1 lb. CP I envy your willpower with desserts since I crave sugar lately. Your weight loss has been amazing. I know it will take time to lose what I want to but I have my daughters wedding next September…
  • Goals for me: 8 glasses of water a day do my walking dvd daily except for Sunday a salad for lunch ( just bought all the fixings) Three is enough to try doing at once. I will add as I get to the point where I do the three consistently.:bigsmile:
  • :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Hi everyone, I have officially started again. Oh how I hate to have to say that, but I've gone from 160 to 196 in the space of a year and I feel like crap. Oh yeah the blood pressure is up too. My chiropractor said no high impact exercises so I went out and bought a dvd for walking inside, it…
  • A picture is worth a thousand words, thank you for sharing.
  • Hello ladies, just stopping by for a minute to say hi. New bus company is keeping me busy so i don't get on the computer very much since school started. I got on the scale and it said I had lost 2 lbs so I guess I'm moving more than I have all summer. Mary I am glad your kitty is getting better. Mine had bad numbers the…
  • Just made them but opted for making more of them so not so many calories! I cooked 18 of them for around 141 calories. But I want to eat them all:laugh: :laugh: Jo you are evil to tempt me so! Bump!
  • Hi all, just checking in. Mary so sorry to hear about your kitty, mine has chronic hip problems and he gets a pill for thyroid problems. I worry about him too, because they won't let you know they are in pain. I just have to watch the way he walks and kind of interpret it. He also gets liquid pain meds, like ibuprofen for…
  • I'm sorry your day was bad MM. I didn't have anything bad happen today but woke up in a grumpy mood and spent the first half of it that way. I don't know why? I have found I am in a terrible mood since I came home, I get downright grouchy at everyone and even more so if I am hungry. I hope you get to take your kitty home…
  • Well I really enjoy my Polar F whatever. When I get on the treadmill it will say I have burned around 350 calories but my HRM says I've burned around 600. Maybe that is why I'm not losing weight so rapidly this time lol. But I find when the leads get too wet sometimes the readings go to double 00's. Does that happen for…
  • These sound great Jo, you always have posted the yummiest recipes! How ya doin? See ya around.
  • Well hi girls, long time no see. I have been back and forth to my mom's place with no computer for awhile. The good news is her lung cancer is stable right now, so no chemo for two months. Better than I expected, no worse but no better either. You all seem to be rather busy, it took me half and hour to read this week. I…
  • Hi all, well it took me an hour to read what all of you have been doing, quite busy you all seem to be. I also saw a person I haven't seen in awhile, hi to Criverside. I would love to say I did great today but a piece of blueberry pie waylaid me. Breakfast was good, though. Also had a healthy snack of an apple and a chef…
  • I confess I really hate mowing the lawn, but that is the only exercise I am gettin in today. But it was good cardio!:smile:
  • Definately gum! Love it and have to have it when driving or I want to eat or drink while on the road and it is much safer with two hands on the wheel:smile:
    in gum? Comment by kjllose July 2009
  • Hi, I'm officially back at work trying to lose weight for the 2nd time. I had lost alot and when I got some bad news (cancer) about my mom, I kinda lost all my motivation and started eating again. But I knew it was a bad decision and just kept going and now I am trying to lose it again. prayerfulmom - sw 277/cw 232.2/gw…
  • Hi everyone, just popping my head in to say I hope you had a great 4th of July. I've been at my mom's visiting and doing everything around the house she can't anymore. I haven't paid attention to my diet so tomorrow I get on the scale. I know I will be disappointed in myself but I can only focus on one thing at a time…
  • Hi, I just realized I posted on last week, duh! Sorry. I have been gone a week looking after my mom. Someone wanted to know if we had a place to go chat in there. Someone named Banks1850 started a chat room. I just logged in and out so I think it might still work. go to http://mfp-archive.harehome.org at the top left you…
  • Hi, I want to thank everyone for the warm welcome. I haven't been back on for a week or so because I was at my Mom's. She has cancer and I spend alot of time with her lately. For the person who thought it would be nice to have a chat room to go to, a person on this site named Banks1850 made one for us and I don't know if…
  • When I was 26 I think I weighed 145 and I felt good, but now I'm 52 and I've been as high as 209 and as low as 160. I felt good at 160 but the meter on this site said I was still obese. I am now up to 195 and working on losing again but it seems harder to this time. I personally think whatever makes you feel good about…
  • I bought one and now have to find the time to use it. I know lousy excuse, I will try using when I garden this week. I have a rather large garden this year. I have worn it walking and it works fine.
  • Hi, Your team name caught my eye and I wanted to join. I haven't had a chance to read your posts yet but I have been on this site for a long time and it has worked for me in the past and then I kind of self destructed due to bad news about my mom. So I am trying again and wanted a place to go post my successes or just my…
