  • Push ups(?): 3 Food: WW smoothie Water: 24 oz. (so far) Exercise: ran 2 miles with my dogs. Starting a new exercise program on Monday. Lost 3 pounds but I think I gained it back. I am really struggling with resisting the junk food.:frown: It tastes so dang good. Today's a new day; hopefully, I'll do better. Correction: I…
  • So I failed with the food thing again. This morning I had fruit instead of the eggs. Didn't eat lunch, was running around at the time and I wasn't really hungry anyway. Dinner?! Didn't have the talapia burger, had baby back spare ribs.(yummmm). Maybe tomorrow I'll have success.
  • Check in: Just back from a "jaunt" with my dogs. Never thought I'd take them both for a run, but this morning I tried it. Started out intending to just do a very brisk walk, but something made me pick up the pace. I was afraid my big lab would take off running too fast but he did good (course he's 6-1/2 now so he is a bit…
  • Regret: that I waited so long to get my Associates in Accounting. But I'm thankful that I was able to finish the program with a decent gpa (3.2) -- having done it in my early 50's. Food choices: better. Have been able to resist junk food (cookies, candy, etc.) Water: Need to work on amount of intake. Exercise: started…
  • Checking in. Eating was lame. I started my two week goal of eating lean meats, fruits, veggies and NO junk food or alcohol (we'll see how that goes). Goals last week were not achieved. Made poor choices and . . . honestly, I didn't care.This week, I am determined to succeed at this two week goal. This week, I'm going to…
  • Wow, I certainly need some retraining. My weight is up 3 pounds. UGH!!! So this week I'm going to cut way back on the junk foods. I think also, part of the problem is I'm eating dinner too late. My husband works 12hr shifts, gets home between 7:30 and 8:00 in the evening. I'm going to change my dinner time to around 5:00 -…
  • So last week was a somewhat lazy week. I walked some and didn't do a any running. So what do I do Saturday morning, run a 10k that I had signed up to do 3 months ago. Never do that again. (Run without properly training for it. If I sign up for a running event I'm going to train til it's over). My quads hurt that day and…
  • Last week's goal was to increase days of exercise. I didn't run more but I did walk the dogs almost every day. On the Garmin site, there's a challenge to get the most steps, I think I crushed that challenge. Finished first. Really haven't been able to put a whole lot of effort into running. My hot flashes have become a bit…
  • Last week’s goals – 75% success Set backs – Not sure This week’s focus – increase exercising to 5 days, water intake Today started out a little rough (running was a struggle) but it can only get better.

  • Where would one find the "guided fitness and nutrition goals" on here?
  • Well for the past week I've been in Sitka, Alaska. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday my hubby and I walked all over town. Tried to eat healthy. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday before the crack of dawn we were up and ready to go out fishing on a charter boat. Caught a lot of fish and had fun doing it. Friday evening the company…
  • Thankful Thursday - thankful God gave me the strength to get out and run 4 miles this morning. Now I'm going to start today's attempt at 48oz. of water. And have a healthy breakfast. I think I'll have an omelet with peppers, onions and maybe some squash - and cheese.
  • Hi. New to the group. My name is Laurie. I'm trying to loose 15lbs. Been trying since - February! I can do it cause I've done it before. Struggling with motivation to stop eating the junk food. The "accountability" piece worked for me in Weight Watchers. Hopefully, I can do this. My goal for the week - 1.5 lbs, drink lots…
  • Just joined the group today. Is this where I check in with weight? etc.? My name is Laurie. I joined Weight Watchers in '06. Lost 35 pounds. I left in '08 - gained 20lbs back. Returned in 2010 - lost the 20. Left again in 2012 - gained the 20 back. The leader retired so I tried on line. Didn't help, even though I was…
