Hi Everyone. Can you believe it is August already? I am stunned. I am trying my best to adapt to my new environment but its not easy despite my family being wonderful to me. I’m now living in my home state but everything seems so different to me. I hope I don’t blow up like a balloon with the stress. I am now so unsteady on my feet that it is hard to weigh. I have to put my fingertips on the table and hope I’m not affecting the accuracy.
The good news is that I seem to have lost a couple of pounds and now weigh 118. I am almost off steroids so that has likely caused some loss. I will try my best to lose at least half a pound but it will be a challenge with my daughter-in-laws excellent cooking.
Agate, so sorry ro miss you this week and hope everything is o.k.
Mamabug, good loss. It sounds like your new plan is working wonderfully. I know you will be where you want to be soon. Thank you for your information and encouragement. They truly help.
Hsmaldo, sorry to miss you and hope all is well in your busy life.
Msgijo, sorry about your gain and if it is the meds hope things will level off. It sounds like the side effects are rough. Thank you for the encouragement. My DIL makes fabulous salads which I am sure will help my food choices.
Poohb3ar, sorry to miss you and hope all is well. I hope the season is treating you well.
For those who may have an interest in joining our dedicated group, our members each have their own personal methods of weight loss. Some are on Weight Watchers, some on Atkins for example and some just cut calories. I personally lost quite a lot of weight in the beginning using Atkins and then just cut portions while eating everything. The method is not the most important thing, it is staying focused and following the plan.
We post weight loss, gain, stayed the same, from Thursday to Thursday and have been doing so for over 16 years. We are truly dedicated to get rid of those pesky pounds and keep them off. You don’t have to state your actual weight. It’s a matter of choice.
