Fell off the wagon
UGH!!!! Had an off week to say the least. Now I feel like crap. It is so true...eat like crap, feel like crap. I am so close to the upper end of my goal, which is where I want to be by my 50th birthday in 6 weeks. I need to lose just a pound a week to get there. Cannot afford to lose focus like that again.

In love but...
I am terrified to actually say it. I loved him years ago and still do. I always have said I would never get that involved again. Yeah...until he came crashing back into my world last fall. Now it is all I want. Every time he calls, when we hang up I just think "God I love that man." When we are together he says things like…

It's getting cold in the Buckeye State!
With the time change and the dreaded snow heading our way, how do you plan to stay on track with exercising indoors without getting bored? I do have access to cardio equipment at the Hospital where I work after patient hours. That said, by the time I leave my office it is already starting to get dark and the temptation to…

Blast from the past...I am nervous!

We ended the relationship back then for good reason. I won't go into detail here but it was not because we didn't care for each other. At the time it really was for the best.…

Hoping to break even this week...
This has been a stressful week. My niece has been in the hospital since Wednesday because she has gone into labor at 30 weeks. We already knew the baby has a condition that will require surgery as soon as he is born but the plan was to induce her at 36 weeks. The doctors are trying to stop the progress to keep baby Karter…

How do you deal with critics?
I am on Day 113 (this time) on MFP along with help from my employers Employee Wellness Nurse. I have done well so far and am about half way to my goal. Surprisingly I have not yet hit a plateau. I have focused on eating well balanced meals and snacks, nearly cut out diet soda, exercising an average of 6 days a week, and…
