Starting weight - 153lb. I've already lost 20 overall, but I haven't been putting in as much effort lately. Since I found a scale at a garage sale today, I thought it was a good sign to join you - see you next week!

[Tola]

Good Morning,

I would like to join this group. Is that possible? Moreover, I created a weight-loss ticker. If accepted, how do I import my ticker into this discussion board site?

I reluctantly but finally weighed myself today. I weigh 217.4 pounds. I can definitely see what Dr. McDougall was talking about when he stated that diabetic medications can reak havoc on the body and cause weight gain. I am up a full dress size after being diagnosed with high blood sugar approximately three years ago and taking oral medication (metformin) to reduce my blood sugar level. I am sixty-three years and my height is 5'5". So ideally, I should weigh about one hundred twenty pounds. Hence, that is my goal in terms of weight reduction. More importantly than that, I want to be diabetes free and as healthy as possible. I think that sharing my progress and reading other people's stories will help to expedite my progress. After weighing myself, I can see why my progress has been slow. I knew I had gained weight, but I did not realize that I had gained that much!

Welcome Tola!! Glad you are here.


100 days till 2016!!!

As written on my page this morning. https://www.facebook.com/FollowingtheSt ... n/timeline

Happy first day of autumn! In years past, I considered this the beginning of the end. The end of summer, the end of the fun that goes with summer, the end of warm weather and tank tops and shorts and the end of long lazy warm evenings with my kids playing outside and eating on the deck watching the happy activity of wildlife. And it still is the end of all those wonderful things. But this year, I'm excited for fall. I'm looking forward to soups and stews, hearty and thick with crusty breads to dunk in them. Hikes around our lake watching the leaves fall to the ground. Hot cocoa for the kids by the fire to warm their bones.
This year seems different and Im not sure why. But, today marks the 100th day until the new year, 2016, begins! What will you do with these last 100 days to change your body and health? Lasting changes. Let's get head start on 2016 by already having a great foundation of habits for healthy living. Why wait until the new year begins to start making changes? Do a little or a lot and by the end of the 100 days, it wont seem like a chore or something you have to do....you're already doing it. Change 1 thing a week. If you still eat meat, how about eating less or having 1 meatless day? If you still consume dairy, how about removing it for 1 day a week? Oils? Try a new method of cooking without them. I used to think it was impossible to cook without oils, but when I do eat something cooked in oil, no matter how strong the taste of the spices or food, I taste the oil and just dont enjoy the food as much. Similar thing with cheese. It actually smells repulsive to me now. Sour and like stinky feet. Especially when cooked. Gag....
So let's begin changing our health, starting with 100 days. Let's do this!

Flat even this week:

9/18/2015 210.3
9/24/2015 210.3 (0)

Feels like I'm in some kind of hibernation or chrysalis mode and have been since I got under like 215. If I can keep with it maybe in a few weeks something will break and I'll be headed down again. Still I'm down 15 pounds since the start of the year, so I should be able to carry on.

Congrats to all you losers.

Have a great week.

Mark

Hello all:

Good week again on the food. Finally broke through the 3 week plateau I was on. I was starting to feel like my body was fighting me tooth and nail and was refusing to let go of the weight. But I win!! I am down 1.8 #'s this week. Hurray for me. Hope everyone has a great week.


08-15-15 178.0
09-19-15 169.2
09-26-15 167.4 down 1.8 lbs.

[veliboic]

Well, one thing I realized is that depending on what time of day I get on the scale and what clothes I'm wearing, my weight can fluctuate by as much as four pounds!

Last week: 149
This week: 148.5

Last weigh in for September! See you, who ever decides to stick around, in October.

97 days until 2016! What will you do to start effective changes in your health before the new year, and the inevitable resolutions start? Get a head start now. The time will pass no matter what. What do you want to see different in 97 days?
