Belated Welcome Brian :) I just noticed that someone had posted in this group lol. I do wish there were more local people that did because I just haven't saw a bunch that post locally. My husband works on MacDill also. He and I both are in the process of eating healthier and I use MFP to hold myself accountable, and he has…

I love this challenge!! I will start researching foods and see what is out there that I haven't tried lol. I am an adventurer with food!! I have always loved trying different things!! LOL you should hear the kids when I cook a new thing, they are always asking if this is a new "Internet" recipe hahaha!! I am addicted to…

First of all Congrats to you Tish for making some noticeable progress and dropping a size!!! That is fantastic!!! I am going to be out some today; which here lately I have been alot so haven't been able to get online as much. When it is warm weather though we try to get out more doing things, so that is a good thing. But…

I COMPLETED THE CHALLENGE...just barely lol. I exercised exactly 28 days after having to take off the one day wrapped in an ace bandage and two other off days. Thanks Karen for coming up with this because honestly I think it pushed me to do more than i would have normally did. Normally I would have probably just exercised…

Welcome Susan :) Glad to see all the new people on here! Nice to meet you!

Totally relate to you all. My husband even doesn't really get how much pain I get in with my feet and ankles when I walk on them. They literally swell so bad that it feels like my skin is going to split open! When we went camping this past weekend I took my fitbit so that I could at least keep some sort of idea of how much…

Kali, I did horrible over the weekend too!! But we all are going to be fine and recover from it because we all took the steps of getting right back on here. I was really hard on myself yesterday about it all, but then I realized that the rest of the world isn't going to stand still for me, so that I can stay on plan. I…

I have alot to catch up since we were gone all weekend camping. I made myself get back on here today, after bombing my eating all weekend. I was trying so hard to only allow myself a little bit of this and that, with the sweets available all weekend, and it just didn't go well at all for me. I feel miserable today after…

Hmm One day I will Do a 5K race. Not sure if I will walk it or run but I WILL do one :) Heather there is an app called Pink Pad that is wonderful to keep up with that lol. Not sure if you have an android or Iphone but it is on the google play store for free. LOL I plan vacations around that thing!! You literally just tap…

OMG Karen LOL I coupon too and drive my hubby nuts with it!!!! I don't work though and feel like I do not do enough for our household so picked it up about 2 months ago as a means to at least have extra spending money if we want something. Well needless to say, once you learn how to do it you can save A LOT of money! I…

Heather I cried reading yours too :cry: . It still amazes me that I see so many of my own struggles on here with everyone else. I feel the same way. I feel like I am trying to do everything for everyone else and make sure they are on track with everything but I beat myself up daily. I look at the laundry, or whatever it…

I went swimming yesterday at our community pool. Yes, I wore my swimsuit and felt like a cow as usual in it, but at the pool swimsuits are required to use it so not much of a choice. Honestly though, I live in Florida so unless I plan on living under a rock I just have to suck it up and put one on if we go to the beach. I…

OMG what wonderful ideas Karen!!! Thanks so much! I will definitely be writing everything down tomorrow and decide what we are going to have. I didn't even think about pre-cooking things at home first and just reheating them! Excellent idea!!! So many things to put on my list now :laugh:
-
Thanks Tish! Excellent idea about the pineapple!! I would never have thought of that. Hubby and I both love pineapple so that would be awesome. You were correct about the smores :) It is marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers....and sooooo delicious! I have not had one in years! But I will definitely be out this week…

Julie that is fantastic!! We all can relate, and that is how we all need to handle these struggles we are going through, one step at a time. :smile: You made it up and over that mountain!!! Congrats to you for taking those steps and making it!! You are doing great!

Karen I just cracked up reading your cop story :laugh: You have some serious willpower there! I am contemplating this weekend also. We are hopefully going to go camping. I love it but hubby has never been so it should be fun. My only concerns is that because we have the kids with us I wanted to make smore's on the campfire…

I definitely agree with all of you. All of our bodies are so different and lose weight differently. I am one of those that is finding it hard to fit in enough calories most days. I just do not get hungry so have to make myself eat. Who would have ever thought that lol? Honestly alot of days I am doing good to hit 1000…

A quick check in before I run around with some errands. I am still around , but was really busy this past weekend. We went to a couple of farms and picked a bushel of corn; which I had to learn to can and freeze lol, and we picked a few pounds of blueberries at another one. I made a few jars of jelly out of those, and even…

I have been out a lot this week so have been grabbing an Atkins shake for lunch several day :/ . I am worried though because even though I am eating my normal breakfast and a balanced dinner and even a weigh watchers snack MFP is telling me I am not eating enough and may stall on my weight loss ..ugh. So hitting that…

Exactly what Julie said Melissa :) You are already in this and already making progress! Just keep doing what you are doing and you are going to do great! :smile:
