Good morning!!! Oh, it's Monday?? Lol, I almost never seem to know what day of the week it is for sure!! For those with traditional schedules... Have a great week!

Thought MFP would censor such nonsense π¦π¦πππ

Split my time.... Summers in Kenai, Alaska and winter in Forks, Washington. And for the Twihards out there, no, I have not ever seen a Vampire π€

I winter Outside, but summer just south of Kenai proper. So I'm half βοΈπβοΈπ

Been around MFP for just over five years now. Approaching goal for the second time after an unplanned break π and plan on shift to maintain / recomp soon. Never added lots of friends, but learning I enjoy following / cheering to help keep me going. A fair number of old ones no longer here and watching many more recent onesβ¦

Good morning Christie!!! Happy Hump day to you. My weekend starts today ππ If I can get get enough coffee in me early, going to try to get a beat the rain run in!!
-
Happy birthday!!!! Looks like a great way to start the day..... Hoping I have enough calories left tonight for a little chunk for me π€π

Without too much thought, I'd say yes. For most of my life, I've been so self conscious about being at least a little, if not a fair amount overweight, that I've found it hard to even approach members of the opposite sex without an inner fear of being judged by my weight. Somehow, I managed to get married some yearsβ¦

I still remember my first 5k in 2015 after 30 years of a mile attempt putting me halfway in a coffin!!! A terrific feeling for sure! Each step up or better effort had that same rush. Pulled off a Half Marathon this fall on short training... Felt perhaps even better! Congrats and if you enjoy running, keep pushing forβ¦

Here we go!! Short week gang!!! Be good for a few days, most of us are going to blow it Thursday.... And that's fine, let's kick buns before and do our best to come out of week in good shape!

Thanks much!!! After five years and 85 pounds, I almost think this journey has been tougher. Alcohol you can just walk away from. You can survive on zero. I think the toughest part there was leaving the social aspect especially when it served as a social anxiety eraser that I know was at least partially tied to my weight.β¦

Good Sunday morning all! Typical soaking wet, cool November morning here on the WA coast. Not the greatest outdoor excerise weather today for sure, but maybe this afternoon for a little bit! Kind of big day for me, today marks 29 years of being friends with Bill W.... Coupled with a nice scale reading today, I'm a prettyβ¦

So, if I let mine grow out more, I'll lose ten years??? Hmmm, I wonder what I can find for rapid hair growth on Amazon??? Have a great Thursday everyone!!!

Happy Monday!!! Thanks to any vets out there β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ. I just came off working 26 of 28 days and now have had yesterday and today off finally. So nice to have no official alarm, but the dogs usually work as one not long after! My home region Seahawks on MNF this eve, guessing I might splurge and deep fry some razor clamsβ¦

I think it does for me. Having zero support at home was tough.... I think the ex was actually jealous. The support of a few notes, and likes and feeling obligated to be honest with folks watching are definitely beneficial in my journey!
-
I too am proof it can be done to some degree!!! C25k back in 2015. No way I think I could have done a mile straight to start. Did a handful of 5ks, graduated to 10s, and a couple of 12s, last minute decided a HM at end of September and survived :) Just don't quit ππ

Happy Friday to those who get to celebrate them (not me π€£). I hope everyone has a great end to their week!!
-
You can do it!!! I started at 270, dropped to 182 with goal of 180. Crept up some 200ish for about 18 months and then spiked up to 235. Back at 189 after a solid second effort and going to work hard at staying someplace below 190. Not easy for most of us, but keep the faith!!

Profile kind of old, I'm pretty old... But quite young at heart. Trying hard to be a runner.... Roughly 80 lbs. down and likely pretty close to a maintain/recomp journey, but should be around for a bit. Chatty with those that enjoy conversation, quiet supporter of those who keep more to themselves π

Happy frozen Halloween morning from the Washington coast. Looks like one of those rare years of no rain here for the kiddos, so I can get more decorations outside today for the finishing touches and fog machines n such. The inflatables are all set though and ready to greet the 300 or so kids I typically get. Not sure whereβ¦

Fresh roasted pumpkin seeds are one of my favorite things on the planet!!!

Passing 50 and almost officially single is never where I thought I would be π Doesn't help that the ex made it a full time job the last decade to make me think no one else would want me π‘π‘ Kind of what started this journey five years ago. Not gonna be the case, sorry to disappoint you evil one πͺππ
-
Kind of a round two for me.... Lost 88 of planned 90 in 2014, put about 40 back on and started losing again in the summer of this year. About 8 pounds above goal now, and then hopefully recomp. Trying to be a runner is part of my plan. Went from nothing to actually pulling off a HM last month. I have some great friends onβ¦

Hiya! My summer home is in Kasilof.... So by AK standards, we're almost neighbors ππ

For those that get to celebrate Fridays.... Enjoy ππ

I survived Saturday college football under goal.... Gonna try hard for pro day today!!! So much easier when I work on the weekends like I usually do and not have the option. Used to always eat a gazillion calories during games, I do enjoy watching, but working hard to not have to feast as well! Looking for a weather breakβ¦

I row a boat for a living, many hours a day, 200+ days a year .... Have for nearly 30 years... And I still had back rolls πππ getting pretty small these days though :)

Since I tend to lurk here some, suppose I should officially say Hi too πππ That way y'all at least know who's reading. Have a good weekend!!

I like quantity ππππ

Congrats.... I did my first at the end of September. Five years ago I would have never even guessed that I would attempt, much less finish one. The feeling of success is unbelievable.... Glad you got to feel that as well ππππ
