With my size and the pain I am in it got me sweating and my heart…

Introduction
Hello, I'm just getting back to eating healthy. My name is Howie. I have been losing weight all my life. In 2005 I had gotten down to my goal weight of 245. I had to have back surgery at that same time and it got me out of good habits and I slowly started gaining. It has been up and down since then. I have now been given a…

Good helmet story!
I went for a 20 mile ride with a friend this weekend. He was saying when he first started riding he did not wear a helmet. He said this 70 year old man stopped him and asked why. Then told him about losing his girlfriend in a bike accident because she did not wear a helmet. My friend decided to get one after hearing that.…

Premium Fitness Pal
Do any of you purchase the premium version of the site? I think they are way overpriced at $10 a month or $50 for the year. I would do it if it was maybe 3 dollars a month but that would be my limit.

Sorry all I went MIA last week. I just read all the post and sounds like a lot of good stuff going on. So the summer events are officially over for me. My sister was home from Alabama last week and I took vacation to spend time with the family. So of course that meant lots of eating and that was on top of gains from the…

Well it was a really rough weekend for me. I pigged out big time. We had a great weekend though. LOL I swear my body is like a dry sponge, just add any bad food and it soaks it up and expands. I am 15 lbs up just from 4 days of unhealthy eating. I know a lot of it will come back off right away but it's still discouraging…

I can't believe tomorrow is July first already! Summer will be over before it ever gets started. I'm sure that is especially true for you folks in Montana. I had a good weekend and I weighed the same this morning as I did Friday morning so that is always a good sign that I will have a loss this week. I am weighing in on…

Good morning everyone! How was your weekend? I had a very relaxing weekend. I took a long walk on Sunday then did some work in the garden. After that I pretty much just hung out on the patio and relaxed the rest of the day. Things are looking decent for a loss this week so I'm hopeful for Friday's weigh in. Hope everyone…

Well the holiday was not good for me. I really blew it this weekend and I'm pretty certain I will not lose any weight this week. It will probably be gain. All well, back at it tomorrow. Other than that it has been a fantastic weekend. lots of fun with family and friends.

Well I was giving Carol the chance to beat me in here again but she didn't make it. You all are quiet this week. How are things going. I had a little hiccup over the weekend but back at it since Sunday, I hope the scales will be kind still. :-)

Good morning everyone. I hope you all had a great weekend. I did, my treat night was controlled to the amount of extra calories I wanted and I was spot on the rest of the weekend. I can't believe it is May already. I so love this time of year with all the flowers and trees in bloom. I am so looking forward to the warm days…

The weekend went pretty well for me. I had a great time out at the shooting range with my neighbor on Saturday and then on Sunday just hung around the house did a little yard work and grilled out. I love this time of year, just being outside and grilling all the time. My eating has been good and I hope to see another loss…

Hope you all are doing well. I did great calorie wise over the weekend with the exception of course of my treat day but that is planed too. However I didn't eat healthy even though I stayed within my calories. Stacy, I know what you mean about the fears you wrote about on last weeks post. I don't know about you but it's…

It was not a very good weekend for me eating wise. I went over my treat allowance Friday and then caved and had pizza again Saturday. Not sure how that will work out on the scales this week but I did well yesterday and will continue on the path this week. I hope the rest of you had a good weekend. We are looking at a…

Another Monday and another week of trying to live a healthy lifestyle. I hope everyone had a great weekend. It was a challenge for me as we went out to eat all 3 nights. Friday was treat night so no worries there. Saturday I did really well and got lots of exercise but Sunday not so good. I did get a little hike in but…

Hi all, I have belonged to other websites like this where we would try and help each other. I know you can comment on individuals status and such here but I always liked the idea of having a weekly chat going that was just for support and telling people how you did for the day or week. You know, things like did you meet…

Back on track
My life has been a roller coaster of weight loss and gain. I once weighed 490 lbs and have been as low as 245 lbs. I had back surgery in 05 and slowly let the weight come back on so now I have 140 lbs to get back off in order to get back to 245 which is half of what I weighed at one point. I know I can do it and am looking…
