Oops missed a post. Group total is now 322.41

I biked 14 miles yesterday and walked 1.5 miles today. Group total is 321.31

OK I'm in. Did the bike/train/bike to work one day = 2 hours Thursday did the tandem bike ride, 17 miles - 1 hour 45 min Saturday biked 1 hour Saturday did gardening for 2 1/2 hours So all together that's about 7 hours - I made it! :happy:

I'm having a problem getting hungry in the late afternoon at work, so I eat what ever I can find. Candy from the woman in the next cube for example. I brought in a bag of baby carrots and that helped a little. Any ideas?

OK so I ate a tiny one inch square piece of chocolate at work today... Everything else was fine

I'll join in. My friend at work keeps cany/chocolate in a bowl on her cabinet for all to take. I never ate much before because I just don't buy it which makes it easy. BUT NOW IT IS THERE! Any suggestions? As far as no snacks after 7 good goal, I think I can do this one. But if I haven't had dinner by 7, it's OK to have…

I just joined MyFitnessPal yesterday and yes I am over 50. My husband's has been doing it for a few weeks. So I decided to join too. I have been trying to lose weight this time since the fall and have been getting nowhere fast. A year and a half ago I took off 15 pounds and that has stayed off, but I have not been able to…
