On deck for a Thursday weigh-in:

A very overcast Weds evening 8:37pm, all food logged, water logged, step count 15735 and still counting, wishing I could get to the gym my shifts are smack in the middle of the day but must look really crazy on the CCTV when Im doing lunges/squats along platforms/ramps (boredom at work)

@HASWLRS I’m back! I’m so sorry to have been out of the loop for almost a month 🙈 We got back from holiday and then my blackberry finally conked out on me which left me with no option of being on the app and I couldn’t get into my account on my laptop. Nightmare! I’m back up and running in the phone department and wondered if I could jump back in with my team rather than going through joining again to go into another one.
Hope everyone is well! When I finally got logged back in I had 547 notifications to get through - clearly loads of great support for May and I’ve definitely missed you all. Xx
@Coral333, it is very nice to hear from you!! I am glad your absence was circumstance filled and not just a case of giving up!! I'll admit, your sudden disappearance baffled me!! For the month of June you may participate as usual....you may even weigh-in, but it will not be officially recorded. To get back onto the spreadsheet and be an official member of team TBBT again, you will have to re-register for the July Challenge. I will make sure you get reassigned to this team...Ashley is great that way!!
Brilliant thank you! I’ll weigh in to keep accountable with you all and will make sure to re register for July to be back on it.
How have my fellow run clubbers been doing? I’ve been looking into a Fitbit @cmhubbard92 after you talking about your Fitbit group plans. Not sure on which one though as there seem to be a few available now.1 -

@CaroDav73, no, I'll bet whoever is watching the CCTV is secretly in awe of you using any spare moment you have to benefit your overall health!! Who knows? Maybe you'll start a trend!!2 -
Weigh in Wednesday
Starting weight: 170.0
Current weight: 149.6
Goal weight: 126.0
Last week 150.4
I'm back to the 150s - I don't understand why, although some must be water weight but that was from Sunday.
The last two days I was low in calories and high in exercise - last change to make a difference will be next Tuesday before my holiday

Mini-challenge
6/5
tracked: yes
under: yes
exercise: yes
Sun: no
Mon: yes
Tue: yes
Wed: yes
I won’t lie, haven’t been to the gym. But my work week has been very physically demanding and yardwork was overdue, which is giving me these ‘yes’ days for the mini-challenge this week. Tomorrow will be just the same.3 -

I upgraded from the charge 2 to the versa. So far, I love it! It was quite expensive, but a lot of my friends have the alta HR! I think that is a cheaper but equally good version! You just can't swim with it. I will be honest that I have not started any challenges in a couple weeks because I wasn't being terribly active when I was out of work, but now I am back to it, and will be starting them up again! The more the merrier!1 -

June 4th (copied from UAC)
Pass day for me. An unfortunate day of events left me relying on fast food. 2 out of 3 of my kiddos had to go to the doctor - confirmed Strep throat. Had more errands to run, so was trying to utilize my time in town to get it all done when someone backed into me. Add on top of that I was borrowing my aunts car (one of ours is in the shop to repair the A/C). Between waiting for police report, tow truck and trying to get a rental all after hours, it was 8:30 and I was exhausted. Had Cane's chicken, which put me over because I had planned on turkey taco meat. Today (the 5th) hasn't started out so hot either with sick kiddos all night. Thankfully the antibiotics have started working their magic!
I hope things look up! It's so hard with sick kiddos.2 -

Under Calories: Doubt it, but can't be sure due to fitbit syncing issues
Exercise: 20 minute walk
Total Steps: 9,830
I had every good intention in the world, but a Ben & Jerry's pint slice and a couple of cookies got the best of me. Whomp whomp. Made some pretty delicious veggie black bean enchiladas though.
Mines not syncing either! Do you have an android?
iphone. I think it is an MFP issue?1 -
Wednesday, June 5th Mini Challenge
Tracked: Yes
Under: Yes
Exercise: 20 minute walk
Steps: 8698
My brother and his fiance came over unexpectedly for dinner, which worked out well because I had made boneless skinless chicken thighs and salad, and it was plenty of food to share. Between that and a 9 pm web meet session for my business writing course, and a couple of chapters to read for my psych course I didn't get a lot of steps, but my food intake was good. I still am having the issues with MFP, both on the site and through the app. It is logging multiple entries of foods and not synching with my fitbit. Hopefully it is fixed soon!

Yeah, I am having issues with the site as well. It won't go to my home page. Thankfully I can still get here.2
-
I will keep weighing in but this week is a bust for the mini-challenge. I tend to eat a lot of my calories reported with Fitbit steps and MFP hasn't synced since Monday. I am logging everything and exercising every day so yes,yes to that but I have no way of knowing if I'm under my calories. MFP is working on it but it is a huge outage and this might take even more time. If anyone else is experiencing this problem they are advising on their Help page not to follow the typical troubleshooting steps. So we just have to be patient and wait it out.2

@jrh_this_better_work, good thing there are no style points awarded for treadmill performance! An easy walk when your body is still sore from the previous day's workout is a great idea!3 -
Weighing in early again (I should be back to Fridays next week)
Last: 243.9
This: 242.7
I continue with the slow and steady losses. I am down 11.7 lbs in the past 12 weeks. And this makes 11 out of the past 12 weeks I have lost weight - and the week I gained it was only 0.2 lbs.
Ideally we would all like those big multi-pound losses but I am very happy with how this has gone after my vacation.9 -
Thursday eve, a really long day at work when everything could happen has happened with rude horrible customers as well so admit a bit of comfort eating today not too much as I did feel yuck for it after but I have logged my food, water intake 4 bottles and my step count is 16880 and still counting. Hope you guys are having a good day 4

Exercise Yes, walking and 40 minutes mowing
Feeling better and better! This evening I put our new push mower together and got a decent chunk of the front lawn mowed... I am hoping to get more done tomorrow. I've been ride-mowing the lawn, but you can't get everything with that alone. Plus, the I got extra steps.
Also, I got two pairs of glasses in the mail today. After almost two years of my glasses being MIA, I can see clearly again! People at work are going to be super surprised to see me in glasses again!
@cmhubbard92, glad you are starting to feel better, which is evident if you were willing to push a lawnmower! Did you ever get that cortisone shot, and if you so, did it make a difference?
@HASWLRS Yes! I did get the shot on Friday and it didn't start feeling really good until Monday! It hurt pretty bad for a while! Next week, I believe, I am going to get back to the gym!
