    I'm so happy we're doing another 100 days!! I wasn't very good last month but now I'm finally back to my routine and ready to start another challenge. Good luck everyone!

    Love the idea of starting a chit chat thread for now!!!!! Last term I started out with a bang with losing but lost my focus. These last few weeks, I've been able to refocus

    Good luck everyone!

    I know I am excited about the new challenge AND hoping to be able to be a bit more active on here. Winter time is behind us and we should have less sickies here at home.

    I am excited as well. I love that we are so low key, but there is support! I have realized I am a very competitive person, but this is a refreshing place to come, and know I am not letting anyone down if I am having a rough day or two!

    We already have a ton of people signed up. So great to see.

    So, sorry to be dense, but has this challenge officially started? The group was created on April 3rd but there's no mention of start date and no spreadsheet. Can you tell I need structure? LOL

    Finally, I am here. When I pressed the join button, mfp took me to sign up a new account and it also didn't allow me to message danelutza19. Thank to the assistance from GrandmaJackie. <3

    I guess the keep fit journary is not easy. However, we can help each other walk through this journary. :)

    The spreadsheet is now up. You can add your name now and wait to add your weight until the start date of April 17th if you wish. Just ensure you have a weight entered by that date.
    Welcome!

    My birthday is on the 20th lol! Right slap bang in the middle of the first week, but it should be fine after that. So glad to be continuing with you all. Maybe it will be easier with the better weather.

    Hit quote, and then you can edit out the bits you don't want or add comments before you post. You can also copy and post it into the next day if you want to.

    If you hit quote, @username should be at the beginning of the quote. Just edit out the bits before and after and type in your comment.

    I'm ready for the next 100 days. I only lost about half of my goal in the first 100 days because I didn't do well in February and March. I'm thankful that I lost, but I hope to reach my goal this time. Daisies are my favorite flowers, but I don't want to stay one forever!

    Fell off the wagon a bit there in the last 100 days, but ended up being 10lbs down so I'm not complaining. But I will say this next 100 is going to be WAY Better!!! I'm ready to look like my profile pic again :wink: :wink:
    Let's DO this!!!

    Yesterday was a stressful day I had 3 people confront me at the branch as to why I won't stay. Why do I want to return to the main office.OMG :# 1 main office I can walk to so I use very little gas . Here I am using a tank of gas a week. The 2 places are like apples and oranges. I just like more structure and less horsing around. I don't mind helping out but I need to get back to home base for my own sanity.Thank goodness I only have 1 size clothes as I have to make sure I don't out grow them. ;)

    @2020pinktogo Sounds like a stressful day. I would probably want to be at the closer place too, Time and money are big things in life.

    @2020pinktogo it should not be too hard for people to understand you would prefer to be closer to home, work within walking distance would be amazing. Don't let them stress you out, just focus on returning to the home base :)

    @2020pinktogo, sorry about your day! Hopefully you can get back to the main branch soon, that would be awesome!!!!!

    Today, it's raining cats an dogs so it looks like the gym for sure will be my place for exercise. These last couple of days, I've started to run on the treadmill. Yesterday I got home and after I fixed dinner, I got super tired. It was extremely hard not to give in and just go get something quick but I made dinner. Also I didn't give in to snacking, yay for me!!!!!!!

    Happy Wednesday, <3:)<3

    @2020pinktogo, You have good reasons for moving so don't let others derail you.

    @GrandmaJackie Well done for sticking to your goals. You will soon get used to the treadmill running and won't feel so tired.

    Today hubby is off bird-watching with his pals, so I have a whole day to please myself. I am going to Flower arranging after lunch, so will be sorting out my foliage etc this morning, in the sunshine.

    :sunglasses: Have a great day! :sunglasses:

    @2020pinktogo Oh no! I am sorry to hear that. Hang in there. We are here if you need to vent.
