    GM TEAM
    TEAM LEADERSHIP CHANGE
    AS SOME OF YOU KNOW I HAVE BEEN ILL FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS DEALING WITH A OUT OF SORT OSTOMY, INFECTIONS SO ON AND SO FORTH. IT WAS PRESENTED BY MY ENT DOC TO ME LAST FRIDAY THAT I HAVE A MASSIVE OBSTRUCTION AND A MASSIVE INFECTION IN MY SINUSES AND MUST HAVE SURGERY TO REMOVE BOTH.


    A SHRINKING ASSET TEAM MEMBER @melissafeagins AND A WARRIOR FIRST HAS STEPPED UPPED TO COVER FOR ME WHILE I DEAL WITH THIS SITUATION. @melissafeagins WILL ASSIST STEVE WHILE I AM ON THE SIDELINES. PLEASE WELCOME HER BACK TO THE TEAM.

    I WILL BE STEPPING BACK AND LETTING MELISSA TAKE THE REINS AS MY HEAD ACHES ARE GETTING WORST THE LONGER I SIT IN FRONT OF THE COMPUTER. AS SOON AS SHE IS COMFORTABLE WITH EVERYTHING I WILL LET HER HANDLED IT.
    THANKS GREG

    I did tell you that I am hard to get rid of. LOL

    However, I had a colonoscopy this morning so I am kind of out of it right now. I will be getting with Greg a little later today and will mostly not be able to check in until after 4pm EST US time due to some changes at my job.

    GO WARRIORS!!

    Melissa - I'm here, you recuperate after your test... We can connect later.

    Please remember, we are posting our DAILY steps here in our team chat, just the same as we do for our weekly weigh-ins... I ask that you please keep your steps separate from your weekly weigh-ins so that we do not miss anything. If you forget, we will try to send you a reminder.

    Be sure to get your steps in - we don't want Becky's new Shrinking Assest's showing us up... Let's do to them what the Pat's just did - Come out Champions!

    A little bit about me:
    I am married (12yrs) w/2 kids: girl (10); boy (7). They keep me going, literally.

    Currently I am a high school assistant principal w/19+ years in education as teacher, librarian, & admin. Extremely high stress; extremely high strung. Recently diagnosed with PTSD & working on getting treatment.

    I LOVE to work out - I just really suck at making time to do it. My work days on average are about 12+hr days, 5-6 days a week.

    I am a self-soother with food & binge. Need help making better choices.

    Ok - probably TMI but it’s me.

    Welcome to the Warriors!

    @myfritzie - What is your first name (if you don't mind me asking)? So awesome having you here with us as part of our Workout Warrior family...

    In regard to making better choices, remember - we are all here to help each other. When you feel moments of weakness, come in here and ask the team for help, we have many teammates who also 'emotional/stress eat' so you are not alone in here with us. remember, own up to your failures as well as your victories, accountability is the best tool towards success. We love to share here in the Warriors. Everyone's own stories help to motivate and inspire the rest of us.

    In regard to the "TMI"... In here, there is never TMI! We love when our friends share - an we share lots. Feel free to share just about anything in here. We love to get to know our friends as much as possible, so please, post freely and post often. We love pics too - before and after, meal pics, even dog pics ( Greg and I have G-Sheps).

    Again, welcome, we are so glad you are here with us!

    Steve

    STEVE SHE WORKS FOR THE SAME DISTRICT THAT MARCIE IS A TEACHER IN. I HAVE KNOWN HER AND HER HUSBAND FOR YEARS. HER HUSBAND IS ALSO A GREG. HE AND I WORKED TOGETHER FOR SEVERAL YEARS AT THE SAME SCHOOL.

    Great - she can help keep you in line and resting! LOL

    Hello My Friends

    I am trying to get someone in to the group. Her user id is @Cskorb417 and she just joined MFP an hour or two ago ( when I helped her sign up ) and I am trying to help her find us. If she does join, she REALLY needs a lot of motivation and emotional support. She is really having a tough time dealing with her weight and such and really needs a good support group (which is why I am trying t bring her in)...

    I will introduce you if she follows through...

    Thanks
    Steve

    NikMar Step Challenge Sun 03 Feb - 16,350 steps

    @steplaj - thanks for the words of support, much appreciated. Just got to take things one day at a time, although getting carried away with eating things I probably shouldn't (far too much bread for a start), shows that I've lost track of myself already! Tomorrow is a new day, so I will need to try again by being more mindful of what I am eating and get my focus back.

    Don't wait til tomorrow, start now... Do your best to make good choices even when your "little devil" is telling you to make bad ones. Seek out substitutions for those bad foods, especially the carbs. Keep water close by and when your craving, try drinking the water and filling up on that. Stay focused by keeping your mind on the target... You got this...

    for this weeks motivation challenge, I committed to:
    No gluten (since I eat this way already, I added a sixth)
    No diet anything
    10 glasses of water
    no soda
    3 workouts and
    No alcohol


    Since I was on clear liquids yesterday, that was pretty easy. I did everything but workout today so I still owe myself 3 workouts. Hopefully I'll feel up to it tomorrow. For now, I'm going back to sleep. (I was up most of last night due to the prep drinks and combined with the anesthesia, I have been sleepy all day.)
