  • I have gained back my weight by binging. My new strategy is to not skip any meals but to eat smaller amounts so I can have a more satisfying dinner. Tonight that was a cheeseburger with a few cooked onions, a tomato slice, and half a hamburger bun. I also had a cup of cantelope. Later I’ll have a strawberry popsicle. I…
  • Round 174 January 7-16 Hi! Back to these challenges to continue to make my goal once again. I’m 5’4, 66, and I have been majorly successful on MFP a number of years ago. This past summer, I lost 24 lbs, promising myself that I would NOT be walking in the heat and humidity at that weight next summer. It’s time to make good…
  • Welcome, Kim! I am back and determined to finish what I started this summer. We can do this!
  • This! Also, for me, a bad day meant restricting the next day. I’ve learned, you exercise normally, eat regularly, and move on. This has been important for me to be successful. Although I usually weigh every day, if I know I’ve really gone overboard, I might wait about three days. I don’t go longer than three days without…

  • I’m addicted to these! I have one every day!
  • I’m back again, too. Hoping to make this time the charm!!
  • I haven’t gotten this figured out yet, but one thing that helps me is exercising early. When I worked, I got on a treadmill at home before work. One mile twenty min allowed since I had a long commute. Not enough time to think about it just get on in pjs. Now I can walk outside on our quiet road two miles. It sets the…
  • Altomg Same! Good luck! I know we can all get there!
  • Hi! Female age 66. I’m from North Carolina. Have been successful here a few years ago, but sadly struggling to lose again. Would love friends to check in with!
  • Hi! I need a buddy, too. I have good days but a day with lunch out throws me still. I eat half and bring the other part home for dinner. I’m actually okay with that, but I end up eating a slice of cake or whatever if it’s a party lunch. Something I don’t eat these days. It really makes me crazy when I’m working so hard at…
  • On a similar journey! Would love to have a friend or two to share ideas and progress! I’ve been very successful here in the past but am basically starting over.
