Posting a Day Late 12/26 - 12/31
LW: 133.8 TW: 134.0 I have to be so quick. I've been thinking about you all and have wanted to say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you ladies who I rely on to keep me motivated and cared about. I really appreciate you all so much. Sarah, I'm so very sorry about your niece. I'm sure your visit to see you sister and…

Dec 18 - Dec 24
LW: 134.2 TW: 133.8 I think that reduction is mostly from being too busy to eat much, lol. Once again, I have managed to squeeze in some exercise (trying to get my Dec Apple Challenge badge so I'll have all 12 months, lol) but not logging food. Although, I did have salads twice for dinner. So, I'm trying. Sarah, I'm so,…

Dec 4 - Dec 10
Last time: 133.2 TW: 134.0 Okay, a pretty decent gain. Not unexpected though with the holiday and family here. Sarah, I feel so bad about your Teddy. I really hope he (she?) improves. It's such bad timing for you. You are the best pet "mama" though. . you really look after your pets with so much love. Glad you finally got…

Sept 15 - Oct 1
LW: 135.4 TW: 135.2 Ugh. I never get very big reductions anymore. I guess slow and steady is good, but it's very frustrating. Sarah, getting medical care takes so long. I'm so sorry for what you're going through. <3 I'm beginning to feel angry about it too, so I can't blame your hubby for his feelings. Especially now that…
-
Sept 11 - Sept 17
LW: 135.2 TW: 134.6 I focused more on food intake last week, so I'm glad to see a reduction. I'll continue with that, but I want to drink more water, so I'll focus on that too. We played golf yesterday and I see an improvement with the instruction I've been getting. Now, I'm hoping for the new putter I keep hinting about…
-
Aug 28 - Sept 3
LW: 134.6 TW: 134.6 Argh. . . lots of movement, not enough dieting. . as usual. Oh my goodness Lois, don't let them overwork your leg. But, I'm very proud of you going up in weights and most of all, sticking with the PT. You know this is what is going to get your mojo back ;) Hope hubby's eye clears with the medication.…

Aug 21 - Aug 27
LW: 134.2 TW: 134.6 Today is actually the 25th, but I didn't find a new thread, so here I'm starting it. My hubby came home and has a lot of fish! We're going to have to give away fish to friends and family for sure. My free week went by fast! I had a great time, but I'm glad hubby's home. My daughter brought her girls…
-
August 14 - August 20
LW: 134.2 TW: 134.2 Hubby left at a ridiculously early hour (3 a.m.) for his Alaska fishing trip. He promised to take care of himself . . it seems like he's been getting more little viruses lately, and just finished an antibiotic for a sinus infection. He loves this trip so much, so I don't nag too much, lol. Sarah,…
-
July 10 - July 16
Last time: 133.6 TW: 134.6 Well a pound up is not as bad as I thought it might be. We've been back since Saturday night, but jet lagged like you can't believe, especially hubby. I have golf today, so I'm off in a bit, but first and foremost I wanted to wish Sarah a one day belated Happy Birthday! I hope it was a good one…
-
June 26 - July 2
LW: 134.4 TW: 133.6 I'm still at home . . leaving early Friday, and very excited. Of course I get my weight down a bit, just in time to enjoy lots of good food, and probably a little alcohol, lol. We're ready, and it looks like nice weather where we'll be, although more humid than we're used to, but cooler temps. We're…
-
June 12 - June 18
LW: 135.0 TW: 134.8 Good morning ladies. Well, very slow progress, but at least it's progress. Sarah, I'm hoping to see a post soon about your mammogram. I'm sending you all my positive thoughts. <3 Looking forward to seeing your post here. Lois, glad you're safely back home (for now ;) ), and that your leg did okay. I'm…
-
May 29 - June 4
TW: 135.4 Yikes. Not unexpected though. It seems that everyone is getting busy with summer ramping up. I have a couple of trips in July also, hopefully I can get some reduction before we go so that it doesn't just continue up and up. I've had a good week this week thus far, with trainer Monday and tomorrow, golf and 2 mile…
-
May 15 - May 21
LW: 134.8 TW: 134.8 Well, that's about what I expected. I hope to maintain for the next week. I hope I'll be able to log on next week with a weight. I'll check in to read your posts from my phone for sure. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone's plan is for the coming summer and for fitness and other goals. I have to…
-
April 3 - April 9
LW: 135.4 TW: 135.6 Ugh, Easter. We had a very nice one, and I hope you all did also. Finally, we have some nice weather! I had a good golf lesson this morning. . . had to work out some bad habits that have crept in. Can't wait to go play, so hopefully the weather holds through the weekend. Kelly, your house is so…
-
March 27 - April 2
LW: 135.6 TW: 135.4 So, so small a reduction, but I'll try to be okay with it. Aww, Kelly <3 I understand the mixed feelings about putting a sign up to sell a home you love. It's very difficult to leave a place with good memories. I'm sure you won't regret your decision, though. It's just emotional. You'll make lots of…
-
Feb 28 - Mar 5
Last time: 134.8 TW: 136.6 Yikes. Getting back on track for sure! That number made do a double take, and now I'm even more committed. Sorry to be late to the board. Yesterday was an unbelievably busy day, and hubby hasn't felt well since about Sunday. We got back from Mexico on Friday night, and he started feeling yucky. I…
-
Feb 7 - Feb 13
LW: 134.6 TW: 134.8 Well, my trainer has been out of town, she'll be back tomorrow. I've had 3 doctor appointments, and no time to focus on much. The cold I had seems to have gone into my left ear, so the doctor and an ENT, and a round of antibiotics (ugh). And then yesterday, I had my eye exam. Everything is good, the…
-
Jan 24 - Jan 30
LW: 134.0 TW: 134.6 Ugh. I'm going in the wrong direction on the scale! I had 2 heavy weights workouts, so I'm hoping it's water in the muscle. I'm having a really busy day because my Oregon daughter and one of her girls is flying in tonight for a visit until Monday. Mostly to see and hold the new baby, but also we plan to…
-
Jan 10 - Jan 16
LW: 133.6 TW: 134.2 Well, the weight gain continues. I haven't had my trainer for a while now since she was sick and then I came down with a cold also . . negative for Covid. I have been able to walk on the treadmill, but very slowly. Sarah, I'm so sorry about the awful and irritating plumbing issues! You and hubby have…
-
Dec 20 - Dec 26
LW: 131.2 TW: 132.4 Well, there's been a good amount of eating out these days. Also, baking and my activity has been hit and miss. I had my trainer Monday, and won't have her again until January . . she's in Mexico for Christmas, lucky girl! I don't expect much "dieting" to happen over the next week or so, but I'll get…
-
Dec 13 - Dec 19
Last Time: 133.4 TW: 131.2 Well, I didn't expect my weight to drop that much, but I guess stress and chasing a 2 year old may have contributed. Sarah, you've had a few health issues come up, but you're overall so healthy that I'm sure you'll do fine. The "rib" is the scariest thing, so please get that checked out as soon…
-
November 29 - December 5
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.4 Did I just type December?! It's hard to believe it's the last month of the year. It flew by for me. My daughter is still hanging in there and keeping baby girl baking in the oven for a few more days. She had another day of pretty strong contractions, but laid down immediately. Luckily she had a nanny…
-
November 15 - November 21
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.8 Lordy, up from our trip . . . Pasta dinners out, etc. Oh well, we had a great time! Granddaughter's high school play was "Little Shop of Horrors" and it was absolutely fantastic! We've seen the Broadway production of it, and this was just as good! I was stunned. Live orchestra of high schoolers that was…
-
Nov 1 - 7
LW: 133.2 TW: 133.4 Only a little sweet stuff, and I'm up a quarter pound. We had a very fun Halloween. Since we get so few kids trick-or-treating in our neighborhood, we opted for a bowl of candy on the porch, and went to our daughter's home to take granddaughter out. Their neighborhood is a bustle of families with small…
-
October 25 - Nov 1
LW: 133.8 TW: 133.2 Well, I feel that is on track for the rate I reduce weight, so I'll take it. Kelly, it's great to read your post. Your life is in full raising a family mode, and now you have your wonderful cabin to add to the mix of it all. I know what that's like, and it's a challenge, but so much fun. Lots of great…
-
Oct 11 - Oct 17
LW: 134.2 TW: 134 It sure takes me a lot longer to reduce than it takes to increase in weight, argh. Can't be on long with Family Zoom coming up, but wanted to get the new thread started. I hope everyone is well. Lois, I'm sending your hubby healing thoughts for his back. You cannot miss Disney!! Take care, and at night if…
-
May 17 - May 23
LW: 133.6 TW: 133.4 It's feeling like a struggle for every 10th of a pound. I'm aiming to get into the 120's by my annual check-up in October, which I had considered a pretty easy goal. Now, I'm beginning to wonder if I can do it. And, I'm at a loss as to how to go about it. I read a scientific study (based on the 30 year…
-
March 22 - March 28
LW: 134.2 TW: 133.8 I'm happy with that reduction . . not a lot, but I felt more focused. I hope to keep that going despite traveling later this week. Sarah, I experience more cravings and hunger when I'm tired. I think our bodies try to get more energy that way. Do you have another comfortable bed or sofa where you could…
-
Mar 1 - Mar 7
LW: 134.4 TW: 134.4 I'm so glad weigh in is today and not yesterday. After traveling Monday, I was up to 136 . . but, now that my fluid levels are more normal I'm back to last week. I'll take that especially in light of the daily complimentary croissants, wine, cheese, etc at the hotel! I did partake, but tried to limit…
-
Feb 22 - Feb 28
LW: 134.8 TW: 134.4 Okay, at last a downward number. But, of course, now I'm headed to Cali tomorrow until Monday. We're flying down for the turning 5 years old birthday celebration for our grandson :) Because their house is still being remodeled and their rental house has no guest room, we booked a really cute hotel in…
