It is a strange world indeed when the "nuts" are the ones who are trying to do the right thing - you know, exercise nuts - health nuts, etc. My husband was recently in the hospital and I was given access to the staff room to get iced tea, coffee, etc. as I stayed with him. The staff room was filled ...

Happy Wednesday, 135 today. Made spaghetti last night - no meat for me, just salsa and olive oil and garlic salt. Also had my second salad of the day.... Pouring rain here this morning, the news last night said that we had the coolest August on record (but don't tell Al Gore)... Healthy thoughts to ...

Hey there mimi - no, skinny is not a good look on an old woman. We want to be healthy, fit, toned, slim, trim - lots of other adjectives.... 134 today.

I joined on April 28 weighing 154. I got to my goal weight on June 10, 140 pounds. I have continued to lose, weigh 135 today so I actually need to learn how to modulate enough to keep a few extra pounds on. (Can't believe I just said that.) SR :roll: Edited to add, I was VERY strict about following ...

Thanks guys. Nice to "see" you howfunisthat. And how fun is that name? Yes, I am beyond happy with 135, 140 was my goal weight, I stabilized around 137 but for some reason have been losing again. Altho 125 or so is more the desired weight for my height (5 four or 5 five, depending on who does the me...

Hi there and welcome. Best of luck on your healthy journey. I think, in the beginning, just stick to the rules. No snacks, no sweets, no seconds except on S days. Once you calms these demons, concentrate on making the food that you DO eat the very best that you can give your body. As a young person ...

It's Friday. YEAH, went out with a group I volunteer with today - shopped, had lunch, went to Aldi's and got some good healthy food. Had chili at Wendy's - drank water. Everything was fine. Came home and ate a salad later in the afternoon - so figure the chili was breakfast (at noon 8) then the sala...

You're welcome, my friend. I was thinking about your journey thus far so I went back to page one and read when I first "met" you - just think you are easily into the 130's and you were in the 150's after your marriage. That is major! I was 160 on Jan 1st 2008 and 135 today, a whole different person....

Love hearing the happiness and excitement in your "voice", Nicole. I know it is isn't just the pounds by themselves, but the fact that you are in control and doing good things for your body - seeing the results is the bonus. What fun baby plans, it would be great having cousins a year apart. I hope ...

Same here. I get up really early, about five every morning. I used to grab a bag of animal crackers or vanilla wafers and nibble (okay gobble) them while I watched the morning news or checked on the internet. I could eat 2000 calories by 6 am. :roll: Now I don't eat anything until around ten. I, too...

Hi there, I love this plan as well. Don't even consider it a "diet" as I am eating normally, like a real person. I was lucky, I guess, lost quite a bit of weight right off the bat - 17 pounds in about six weeks - achieving my goal. I actually got a few pounds too thin (Can't believe I am saying that...

Sounds like a good plan to me, Nicole. I know that once one is successful finding a healthy eating plan that actually peels off the pounds, it is rewarding to see the number drop. But, like you, I had to realize that my "best" weight was somewhere betwen 135-140. I have been maintaining at the 137 o...
