Solo--Good eating menu for the day. Congrats on your booked transatlantic cruise. I love them. You'll have so much fun. Terri--Good loss last week hope it happens again tomorrow. Yes, it's true lost weight faster, easier when we were younger and bigger numbers. Another joy of getting older!🙁😁

Monday Afternoon is here. Do you eat Breakfast, lunch a dinner or skip one? Do you only drink at mealtimes or off and on all day? What have you found works best for you?

Hello on this Sunday. Everyone busy and enjoying your weekend. I wish you all more people would come in each day and talk about how you're doing. I'm try to eat my biggest meal in the afternoon and a more of a light dinner or snack in the evening. Mostly tea for breakfast. Know easier for me because don't have a husband or family around that want to eat. Tues, and Wed. will be harder on eating. Doing things with my son both days that will involve eating out or having take out. Try those days to just have one meal. Wed. finally looking for new floors. Everyone take care

Suppose to be at the end of Sept. after the. last Alaska cruise.

Afternoon All Izena what a wonderful person you are to help your friend. Hope things better for her after surgery, If someone couldn.t cook a meal they could get takeout to help. Son bed bound and smoking, bad combination. How are you feeling? Back any better? Glad you're eating a little better. Eating less and right is so hard as we all know. OK where is everybody?

Hello on this Friday. Solo--Take the loss's and enjoy. Some days you'll have a gain or will stay the same when you think you should of lost. Sure you'll fit into the dress with the way your losing. Susan--Good loss Susan. Hope another loss for you next week. Yes, I'm the one that irons. Use to do my husbands and kids and of course the "kids" don't iron at all. Think my daughter might have a iron, son no. Glad I'm not the only one that still does it, three of us here that do---- a dying art! . I just think clothes look better iron. I never iron sheets, underwear ect. Me--I lost 2 lbs after everything. Was same after cruise. With jet lag not eating and drinking lost weight, Then started drinking more water gain back to the same. Then yesterday 2 lbs down. I'll take it. I/we really need to stay hydrated, I was really lightheaded. Took a couple of days to feel better. Think a combination of flying, no sleeping ect. Know Jan is on her cruise. Where is everyone else? Hope to see you soon in here no matter what the scale says. Everyone have a Good Weekend. Stay cool or stay dry, problems of all kinds in different states. So be safe.

Losing weight to go on the SEA Coming back NO weight gains for us to SEE We can do it we KNOW At times we have to say NO Less drinks-- Less FOOD Does that sound Good ---------OR------------ Do you enjoy yourself but don't over DO Take your chances of any gain your DUE When your home and have a GAIN Do you get back on track without any pain No way is wrong or RIGHT Just have fun on your cruise with all your MIGHT BON VOYAGE TO ALL OF YOU FOR ANY MONTH, YEAR YOUR CRUISING🛳️

I don't iron everything, but I do iron some blouses, some pants.

They have transfer from port to airport. If you want to go to the center of Rome, you would have to take and excursion with Princess. There is a train you can take to Rome but you have to get to the stations.

Jan--Bon Voyage! Know you'll have a good time. Least no gain before you go is good thing. Enjoy the food and walking will help. Solo--Glad you've had a good week and looking forward to Thursday. As I said drinking water has been my problem too. Sounds like you got yours solved. Izena--How are you feeling now. You were having problems. Yes hope Jo is doing alright. You've been having rain, we're going to have a heat wave in a few days. Yes, getting older might come with good things but seems like really bad things too. Terri--Great non-scale victory! Clothes to big when they were tight Glad you had a good week of eating. PS . yea another person who irons, thought I was the only one. Everyone have a good Wed.

It's Tuesday. Are you doing good in your eating? Ready to weigh on Thursday? Have any tips for us in here that helps you stay on track and eat less?

Afternoon All Welcome SoloAlaska Yes you can lose weight in two months and be happy with how ever much it is and hope enough for your dress. Just remember whatever you lose makes you less than you are right now. So a Win. If been reading know we weigh-in each Thursday but can come in anytime to talk. Yesterday down in weight but not feeling good. Figure not drinking enough, so drank and ate a little more and yes, gained what I had lost. Feel better today but not 100%. I use to drink lots of water but got out of the habit. Need to start again. Sad news one of my lifelong friends, her husband my friend too has stage 4 cancer. Not looking good. Didn't help my mood, why do things keep happening as we get older to us and others we love. Know it's life but-----🙁 So onward we march to lose weight for health and to cruise.

I think you did to Jan.-----I didn't! You get a gold star.⭐

Afternoon to who ever is reding this tody. Hope your Sunday is going well. Jan glad you enjoyed your Friday date night. Did you do your flower garden> Yes, that's exercise. I didn't do to much yesterday, some washing. Can that be exercise? Tough washing clothes!😁

How's everyone doing today? Eating right? Exercise? So far I'm eating right but no exercise. Have a good day this July 8th. How can be that half of 2023 is gone. Time sure does go by faster as you get older!😆

Just that's a good loss. You can say WW. Everyone here does their own way of losing. Hope your next 10 come off fast for you but we know it does take time. Darn it! Nice you help at the camp. Lot of times I don't lose on cruises and then gain at home after I'm back. Does that make sense?🙃 Susan staying the same is better then gaining. Baking for others is nice but bet this week out of kitchen you'll have a loss. Why are the best tasting thing--- Tthe sweets"? Hope everyone is having/had a nice day and you all have a good weekend. Hope all of you come in and talk, help us to think weight loss and not to eat too much.

Got home safe after long delays on our flights. Never thought we' were going to leave Canada. Left Athens a little late but not like Canada. Flying isn't as much fun as it use to be. Like the cruise with my daughter and so happy she got to see the different countries. Glad she's independent. because she did things on her own since I had been to the ports and didn't want the long tours or walks. We did some things together and then did our own things. Works really well that way. Had hot weather most of the time. Best part of the cruise besides sailing with by daughter was being in Santorina sitting at a cafe with the beautiful view of the water, white houses, blue roofs and loved the sail in into Kotor from the ocean to river, two hours of wonderful sights. 2nd time doing it. The Enchantment is like the Royal both are nice but everything is so open. I like the older Princess ships because they still have somewhat closed rooms and the Skywalkers and you still can walk around the ship outside. Cruise lines are making their cruise ships so big that they can't dock, you have to tender in or the ports so far away from the city. Izena thanks for starting this morning and the other times I was gone. Wish more people were coming in. We've lost some. Hope they come back soon. Glad you stayed the same. Does that mean your feeling better? Hope so. Sorry you have to wait till Nov. to cruise again especially when it sounds like cruising with someone you don't want to. Maybe a cruise might pop up you can do before then, Jan congrats on the loss. Hope you lose this week before you cruise like you want. Where are you sailing too? Just your husband and you? A week or more? Isn't it nice to look forward to a cruise and then it's time to take it! It's almost here. Have a great time. Alright hope to see more people posting whether your new, been here before or whatever. Nice to keep track of our weight during the summer so we won't have gains or small gains because we were aware. Susan your still here? Your doing good. Cruise in Aug? Jo where are you? Hope your feeling well, husband too. That's not why your staying away. Oh forgot to say----I stayed the same on my 21-day cruise and haven't gained since I've been home. (Which I can do) Wish I could lose weight as good as I can stay the same all the time. I'll take it but need to lose. That's why I come here. Never give up.

Happy Fourth Of July Everyone! Hope your having or had a good day. Take care and be safe. Now if only people of the USA would get their brain and heart in the right place. Let us be the nice and good people we were (most were) and get back to Normal. Get rid of the hate, the people who think their god and can do want they want. Do we need to go back to the Hippy period? ..Peace and Love.❤️

Hello All Jan and Susan glad you both lost weight for your Aug. cruises. Izena sorry your struggling to get on track. Know you like your walking, sorry so hot for you. Know I'll be struggling to when I get home after eating cruise food. Long day tomorrow, long air flights, long waits in airports. Yuk! Had a really nice cruise with daughter, glad she got to enjoy all the ports I love Greece and the sea, Just wish I was younger. to do the things I wanted/dreamed of doing after seeing a movie about Greece when I was in my 20's. Love the rest of Europe too but Greece is something. Will talk when I get back.

The Casino is no longer giving out PP. It will only given to the top three highest gamblers per cruise. Least we know that up front now -------- What I don't like is us now having to fight for PP we know we have and they saying we don't. On Enchanted now, had a paper and they still said didn't have it. Well I went fighting, what help from a higher host on board, finally got it few days later. Now she's checking on others I have and they say no. She's printing out papers from them when they say I have it and taking on board with me. See what they do then. Still fighting for one. Miss the days when you got on board and just what you booked--no problem. TIMES ARE CHANGING Don't give up fighting because as said casino not giving PP anymore and e-mails and mail gave them up already. Princess is outsourcing everything and people on our cruises. The Loyalty person/Captain Circle will only do Events now, sales dept. increase to 5 and each day one of them do loyalty. Won't have a person you know. Now Casino, Shops, Selling of cruises, different departs like Loyalty are all Outsourced.

Thanks Jan. MT and Cruise42 for the visit. Yes everyone should do a cruise to the Med, Europe if they can. I know time and money can get in the way. Jan enjoy in 25. Mt your 1st cruise coming up? You'll have a ball and will be hooked like the rest of us. We all started out maybe a cruise every few years and just kept taking more. Trying to enjoy the last week and not think of the long flight home and layovers. Have to take the bad with the good!🤪

Hello All, good to see your all doing great losing or staying the same. Know I'm eating more with my daughter here then when I sail solo. We're having fun cruising in Europe, I've been a few times but her first. So she's taking more tours and walking then I. Plus she's younger than I.😄 Will be back in 9 days How does 21 days go by so fast? One surprise these cruises. 1st 2 cruises I'm the 3rd most traveled and last cruise #2. Think many 1st timers, not many elites. Don't think this will happen again, well maybe Alaska because it has a lot of 1st timers too but hasn't yet. Finally writing now because mix up with my internet, working now, so here I am. Remember everyone as being women our weight goes up and down "hormones" so everyday the scale can have a different number. Don't give up. Take care

Afternoon Everyone. Thanks for the wishes on feeling better and enjoying the cruise. I know I will. been to most of the ports doing this for my daughter. Nice to see you have cruises booked for July and August. Aren't they great? Wonderful you all had loss's this week! Hope you can to it next week too. So, Jan, Susan, M6Nest, Izena and whoever comes in have a great day and week. Will talk again when I have internet. Take care

Sorry I've been missing but the virus got this old body Was down and out for awhile. Really tired, slept a lot. Didn't feel like talking or writing or anything. Almost felt like canceling but the balcony is free if I didn't go have to pay full price for two for my daughter. I couldn't not let her go, counting on it. She's only been to France. Not paying and staying home--so I'm going. I'm so behind in everything. Not ready for my cruise--leave tomorrow night. Really Friday morning, catch shuttle at 3:30 am. Nice--not! So have Thursday to get everything together and pack. If you don't remember taking my daughter to Europe on the Enchanted Princess. 21 days. RT from Athens, Greece. Dread the air flight to Greece and waiting times in airports. Know I'll be tired. Of course the 1st day couldn't be a sea day, it's Santorini and a tender. Have to go, love Santorini. Cruising from June 10th to July 1. . Won't have internet till June 17th if it works will come in. Izena sorry your having trouble and not feeling well. Jan glad your holding your own and not gainin Susan nice loss Welcome to the one who just join us, sebsbran (sp) If remember name right . Know you will do well. Good people here. Everyone take care--will think of you--hoping you can eat right this summer. It's hard I know but we're tough...now me on a cruise--will try my best. Anyone else cruising now? I'm home in July but cruising again in August. Where, when are you going? Have fun.

Summer Good Old Summer Getting older makes Summer a Bummer What do you think--still enjoy good old summer time I think I do but my body is a crime No bathing suit anymore and my eating should be less Plus really hate cooking, bbq and making a mess I do miss the summers at the river each year What do you miss that was so dear Now cruises are what to do, to enjoy summers No work, just enjoy, so summers are not a bummer Doing a cruise or same old/new summer in the sun We still need to lose weight for healthy summer fun On the scale we go --------
