Iluvyogi

I find the fuel band very motivating. I find myself walking more or climbing stairs just so I can get to my goal for the day. You have an excellent start to your weight loss! It also sounds like you move a lot with a goal of 6000! nice work!

I gotone for Christmas and I LOVE it! It will be interesting to see how many steps I take in a day once go back to work on Monday. My fuel goal is 3000. What is yours?

Elementary school principal--absolutely love my job!

I forgot to check on for this month! I lost 10 pounds, bringing me to Onederland!

I'm a vice-principal of an elementary school so I hear you loud and clear I was once told it would take about six weeks to recoup. I still have a ways to go before considering this surgery. I must say that you are inspiring. I'll get there hopefully in a year or so.

Thanks for sharing your photos! You look great! How much time off work did you need?

Oh, by the way,forum names may not necessarily be their username on MFP.

Nope. All you need to do is go to friends, add a friend, type in your username (judych1946) then you add the username of the person you want to add ( for example: iluvyogi). It should work. I sent you a request to be friends. All you need to do is accept or ignore. Please accept
