    The WaistAways May Chatroom is now up and running!

    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10741463/waistaways-team-chat-may-2019#latest

    So head on over (especially if you have already reported in for this week) and start setting the tone / making suggestions for how you want next month's thread to evolve .... posting memes be they silly or inspiring ....

    As @jugar just assured @karenesg .... the BB updates taking are about to phase out. It's been fun and amazing, but time for something new.

    What topics, daily themes, types of "just between us" byplay would help you / support you / nudge you the most? Put it in the top of the new thread!

    Do people want the internal step-counting "how far did we travel this week?" thing (WITHOUT the rest of the BB additional workout time / runs earned business) to keep going?

    Yes this would be great, something that makes you want to get up and be accountable.

    Friday baseball: I did Richard Simmon's Cardio for 20 minutes and toning for 15 minutes. I also got out and walked numerous times today - 55 minutes this morning, 23 minutes, 43 minutes, and another 18 minutes tonight. My step count is over 13,000 but will post it tomorrow morning as to get all steps counted.

    @fourathomej -- I hope you are doing all right after your mom's fall and all the hard stuff that is going on. She had just come home from rehab so this must be really difficult. Keep well.

    Week 4

    CW- 220.2

    STEPS:
    April 25- 15,045
    April 26- 14,738
    April 27- 6,280
    April 28- 6,818

    Reflections:
    I need to focus and concentrate more. I’ve also noticed that it’s hard to motivate myself when I’m feeling down or unwell but I am refusing to give up. Everyone has inspired me through this struggle and I will keep fighting to succeed in this weight loss goal.

    Today is the last day for the April Challenge -

    It has been a good, long month - with some terrific successes. So far, with not everyone counted up yet, the team lost over 55 pounds in April. We have completely dominated in the baseball challenge (which is ending today!) and I hope that everyone will continue into May. I have seen a level of participation and commitment this month that is higher than before. When someone has a setback, they come back and make an effort to get going again. There have been enormous increases in exercise (looking at you, @jlbtnc !) and my co-captain @BMcC9 even got a fitbit. Did you hear?

    So thanks. Get your numbers in for today as soon as you can, and we'll be off and running over to the May thread tomorrow.

    Thursday 5/1 - 7,289
    Steps Friday 5/2 -9,010

    My steps for Friday ended up being 9,048, but it’s ok if you don’t want to change it. I also had my Fitbit off for, at least, 2 very active hours.

    I can’t weigh in today, because my son and his gf are sleeping in the guest room where I have my scale. It’s killing me because I am soooooo close to Onederland. So, I’m going to be a big girl and post yesterday’s weight and go on with my day. However, I will probably check in with my weight tomorrow especially if I make it to 199.

    @evangsimmons170 ....for 5/3/19....I ran several meetings yesterday for hours on end. Lots of sitting. By the time I got home last night, my brain was fried and I opted for sleep over exercise. No regrets. :smiley:

    Baseball for Saturday: I don't know if cleaning counts as a work out but here goes - cleaning (including dusting and window cleaning for 1 hour and 9 minutes, vacuuming was 26 minutes, and I also did a walk that was 1 hour 38 minutes. My steps are off, because think I had band to loose I will post later.
