I set mini goals of 2 lbs at a time. Sometimes it took awhile to achieve and sometimes it didn’t. I started May 25 2020 and have reached my goal a few months ago. Total lost is 61 lbs
Good evening; It was so nice to watch you today. I have two prayer requests: (1) me for bladder surgery on Friday, June 28, & (2) Mike Kizer - he is in the hospital because his kidneys began to shut down, he has adema, and his heart is only 20% working. I've added Barb and Ron to my prayer list and praying for them. Thank you.
You looked very healthy at 209. I remember. ❤ I also remember how positive you were every day. On the days you were not, you were honest with yourself and owned up to it. That was part of your success. You celebrated birthdays and holidays and lost! I believe WW is your plan. Your daily meals helped me with eating a bit better. ✨✨✨ When you’re ready you will lose weight because you’ve already proved it to yourself and your YT friends and subs. 🎉. Dee has a summer reset challenge. Have you seen it? 🌺🌸🌼
Thanks for my birthday song!! Twice!! 😂You did pretty good with my name, to make it easy, it's pronounced Pez-zoo-lee. And today is my actual birthday, the 26th! Thanks again!!
Wow! You struck a chord with me today! I've gained a lot back (was 2 pounds away from 100 lost) then had cancer a few years back, and its creeped back on. I look in the mirror and hate how I look and feel. So ready to start over!! Good luck with your new start, I'm with you!!😊
Oh Sandy. I turned 75 today and have been a weight watchers member off and on since I was in my 20s. A life time. I too have eaten ice cream RIGHT OUT OF THE CART and was probably more than a scoop but in my mind not enough to get a bowl out. Thank you for your channel. I enjoy so much and love hearing and seeing all about your family gathering. For me family is everything and I'm still trying to get to that healthy weight so I will be here to enjoy my precious family. We'll make I just know we will. Again thank you!
Recommitment must be in the air! I had this conversation with myself this morning. I’ve got to get the slippery slope foods out of my house. If it’s not here, I do better. So enjoy your videos.
Thank you for the rules. They all make perfect sense. I agree that a slow loss is the way to go. It gives us time to change our eating habits. Also your flowers are beautiful.
I stained my deck this summer in 80-90 degrees. I pressure washed it way before I stained it but that’s mostly because we had lots of rain after that. I have not heard of putting a sealer over deck stain but we will give it two coats of stain if necessary. I am glad when we can do some of the work ourselves because it’s so hard to find good contractors. (But yet when we run to Menards, 75% of the vehicles in the parking lot are contractor pickup trucks!)
Lordy, I can relate to almost everything you discussed……one and half years ago I was 18 lbs lighter and I’m fighting with myself to get a grip and get rid of it….i will…just gotta keep on with my internal motivational talking 🤪🤪. Thanks for sharing…this was good…needed this ❤. Y’all take care and be safe ❤❤.
Soooo frustrating how easy easy it it gain as we age!? 68 here and it Took me months to lose 7 pounds and bam in a week 3 is back.. thanks for going over the tips. Let’s do this! 💪🏾💪🏾❤️❤️
I love daylillies; yours are really doing well. Mine are suffering from the almost hundred degree days for the last two weeks. We haven’t had rain in almost three weeks.
We haven't had much rain at all. It's calling for thunder showers tonight. I hope we get some because we really need the rain. I'm trying to get back on track too. I don't know if I will be doing weekly updates or not.
I hope that you are able to get your money back for the deck, if it comes to that. My weight has been creeping back up the last few months and it's because of unhealthy snacking. Hard to stop...
The thing that helped me finally lose was increasing my fiber. Eating whole foods and very little processed foods. Processed foods do NOT fill you up & cause cravings. I was never a huge meal eater. My problem has always been sweets. I had to go cold turkey off sugar and my cravings & overeating went away.
I was a WW member for years. I did lose over 100 pounds. Unfortunately I have gained some weight back. The WW weight chart is so outdated and it is based on Body Mass Index {BMI} only. It does not take into consideration a person's age or health issues. A person can not expect to weigh what they did at age 20. My doctor set my goal weight, as everyone should do. If you set your weight too low, there's no way that is sustainable. The WW chart said my TOP weight should be 146 pounds. My doctor set my weight at 170 pounds.
Luv what is your wall color. It's really pretty in your computer room. Does Mary have a case manager? He/ She should be able to help solve a lot of these issues. I work with kids so I'm sure what the difference is in care for adults and kids.
Get her a handicap placard, if she doesn't have one already. Whoever is driving her has easier parking to make it easier for her. I am 100% sure her Dr will give her a prescription for it.
Ha ha ha....I am an `ice cream heathen` I eat it out of the carton. Needless to say no ice cream in my house! If I get a craving I will bite the bullet and pay the price for the very small 2 serving carton (say like a gourmet type or so they claim) and eat it in 2 servings out of the carton mind you but then my craving is fixed.
Remind me Sandy what your top weight was? You need to remind yourself you use to weigh your biggest! You did not gain it all back and that’s an accomplishment!
@@LifewithSandy see ! You are not back to Threetown. You are in TWOville! Those are accomplishments that are huge! Remember the successes when the negatives get to you. Remind yourself you may not be where you want to be but you are not where you were! You can do this! You can do hard things! Remind yourself you used to be 304.2 lbs and now you are NOT!
@@LifewithSandy your very welcome! You are still lapping those of us who are not loosing and are gaining and csnt seem to get it going! You are an inspiration and help me to not quit
Oh my. Stop paying people before they do a job. We don’t do that up here Unless they have to buy lumber etc then we still get it delivered to us. But labour. Nah
I set mini goals of 2 lbs at a time. Sometimes it took awhile to achieve and sometimes it didn’t. I started May 25 2020 and have reached my goal a few months ago. Total lost is 61 lbs
Congratulations. Great job

We’ve got this
I've had my adjustable bed ten years, never a problem, I'm with you, no part, get me a new bed!
Definitely get a new bed
Got mine at Costco. Returns exchange etc so easy with them. I always check there first

I’m not sure if he’s painting or staining
I enjoyed u reading those to us. Looking forward to the next ones.
I'm so glad!
So glad u brought this up. I am over my”never going over this #” and so discouraged.
I’m just so disappointed in myself
Enjoyed this chat!

You got this!
@@LifewithSandythank you ❤️❤️trying!
nothing easy about losing weight. Even at goal, you always have to be mindful of what food goes in your mouth!!!
Love your flowers.
Yes! Thank you!
I’m going to get the book you just finished. Sounds good.
It was
Your garden and flowers are beautiful. Today you have time for yourself
Yes, thank you
I love daylillies; yours are really doing well. Mine are suffering from the almost hundred degree days for the last two weeks. We haven’t had rain in almost three weeks.
Even with the heat we did get rain every day
Your yard and flowers are beautiful .. Glad you finally got some time for yourself .
Thanks so much
Hi Sandy, Please mention our 50th. anniversary for Friday June 28th. George & Sandy Rentovich. Your neighbors from Richmond MI
Definitely
We haven't had much rain at all. It's calling for thunder showers tonight. I hope we get some because we really need the rain. I'm trying to get back on track too. I don't know if I will be doing weekly updates or not.
We’re getting too much rain
Flowers are beautiful! I need to follow all 6 rules!❤
We both need to
I hope that you are able to get your money back for the deck, if it comes to that. My weight has been creeping back up the last few months and it's because of unhealthy snacking. Hard to stop...
So hard to stop but we must keep trying
You have a pretty house 🏘️ and garden.i always watch you and family.have a blessed day
Thank you! You too!

Yes his name is Joe and he’s very helpful
@@LifewithSandy well we need to stay on him because he's not very pro active! Just saying.
Get her a handicap placard, if she doesn't have one already. Whoever is driving her has easier parking to make it easier for her. I am 100% sure her Dr will give her a prescription for it.
She does have one but thank you for the suggestion

That’s a good idea
Measure your ice cream. 2/3 of a cup isn’t much. I found this out the hard way as I was eating too much
I agree. It really wasn’t that much but just eating out of the carton was bad
I am going on vacation soon looking for a good beach read. You seem to have a lot of knowledge on books any suggestions?
I do like any James Patterson books. Quick reads
Thank you❤
The tricks I use to lose weight are the ones in the book I sent you.
I still use them
👍👍🥰
😘😘😘
Angiogram.
Yes. Thank you

304.2

My husband preferred dark dreary days
I find it comforting
@@LifewithSandy Me too. Nothing like a dark dreary day sandwiched between sunny days :)
If you have time on your hands, find a youtube video doing chair exercises! Or, walking videos.
Good idea
Oh my. Stop paying people before they do a job. We don’t do that up here Unless they have to buy lumber etc then we still get it delivered to us. But labour. Nah
It’s customary to put 1/2 down
