Friday check in....(first improvement on my weekend)
Calories/WW points I used almost all of my extra points yesterday but I am not in the negative for a change! (Second improvement for this weekend.)
Water: I’m not sure. I had a day from hell yesterday so I concentrated on tracking my food at least.
Exercise: Didn’t turn out how I expected which is a bummer but you can’t always control everything. I had no idea how many steps I had until just now 10,719.
Goals for today: Eat low points through the day since we have dinner out again. Get a small work out in shortly to get some activity points (third improvement on my weekend) and check in again tonight/tomorrow morning. Attempt to stay out of the negative for points but I have a feeling cocktails will push me over and if they do I am not going to beat myself up, I will just work out more to dig myself out. Lol I refuse to not have a loss this week!
I’m in for a hiking trail challenge!1 -

Friday weigh-in 154.8
I am going to have to sit out for March. I'm completely overwhelmed with work and just can't manage the regular check-ins. My state assessment portfolios are due at the end of March, so once that's done life should be good again.
No worries - we look forward to having you back in April!!! Is it okay if we move you to cheer squad for the month?
What's the cheer squad?1 -

@broncobuddee might be able to explain it better than me. But the main thing is no requirement to weigh in. You can still be part of the group, check in and post now and then if you want. Many people move to that section of the spreadsheet when they need to take a break or might be maintaining for a while. Mark anything to add?1 -

Not much to add. It's a great way to stay associated with the group when you know you're coming back in a month or two. You can pop in to the team thread as time permits without the guilt of a missing a defined check in (weigh in) due to time constraints.1 -

That’s amazing Jen! It’s great when we can influence others with our good habits.
I think (but not confirmed) that the step challenge may be paused for a while. Some of the captains are step tired from tracking and logging all of the steps.
It looks like they are leaving it up to the individual teams as to whether they continue with step tracking. There won't be anything group-wide. Is there interest in continuing to track steps within the team?
I have a crazy idea, and I may really regret brininging this up! Lol. How about we hike the Appalachian Trail together as a group? I’m following several real AT hikers who are beginning right now. We start in Georgia and hike to Maine. If we can figure out how many steps are a mile, I’ll try to post pictures from the real trail as we make progress along the way. My heart is always on the trail this time of year anyway. @kres567 and @broncobuddee do you think this is something we can make work? Or is it TOO much work?
I’m up for it! Always good to have a new challenge to keep us motivated! Do we still track it on our f2F spreadsheet where we log our weigh ins?
I think that would work. It could be open to however many people want to participate. Wouldn’t be restricted since we wouldn’t be competing against any other teams. Unless that spreadsheet could only be used for a competition. Y’all know more about that than I do.
We can work it however the team thinks would work best. Mari added a section at the bottom of each team's tab on the spreadsheet for those that want to track steps, rather than a tab for the entire group (all teams) as we had been doing. We can use that or another format.2 -
Hey team!
Several administrative things:
First, please plan to head over to our March thread starting tomorrow (Sunday, March 3). It is at https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10730134/mission-slimpossible-march-2019#latest
Second, please check your starting weight on the new March spreadsheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Uj1qTpBTlPo5T5Weqy47sOjWzXA4OPME_Fyytorsa_o/edit#gid=2032789470 It should match your week four weigh in for February. Please let us know if I got it wrong.
Third (for the steppers), please check the February step challenge spreadsheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-uPPfa0CHwfqbHFrqiqwSWzQLg0dz1iV-dyBF65bekE/edit#gid=1792796776 and help me fill in any missing holes.
And finally, just looking for a small handful of weigh-ins to close out the week/month: @alys_plate92 @19shmoo69 @pjmfitforme
Thanks!2 -

Hey, I like this idea!! I'm in Georgia so we can all meet up at my house to start our walk up the trail!
Check in for Saturday:
Calories: Over
Water: A lot over
Exercise: 60 minutes on the treadmill
Today is my birthday and I did super on my intermittent fasting and eating. Until dinner that is!
I made my favorite chicken parm and pasta and of course a couple of glasses of Shiraz. I will finish the wine with some dark chocolate that hubby gave me later on tonight.

Saturday check in
Calories: over for sure
Water: not enough but still drinking
Exercise: 45 min power walk
My day started perfect - great breakfast and awesome power walk. Lunch was okay too. But after that I couldn’t seem to eat enough to get rid of the hunger pains. Nothing was terrible but I just kept nibbling and grazing until now.
Goals for tomorrow:
1. Power walk in the morning
2. Stick to my meal plan I made tonight
3. Keep busy so I don’t eat all day!!2 -
