    Gains come with the journey Julie.... I am in the same situation... so glad you are with us--I know it's a struggle, especially the closer you are to your goal. The last 10 lbs has been an ongoing war for me the last 3 years😣.... but not giving up is an instant WINπŸ™Œ

    πŸ€—πŸ’ͺ🏻 Keep goingπŸ™ŒπŸŽΆ

    November 2 ~ Tips

    Why we are here team! I am thankful for this team of support! You all rock!

    From Mayo Clinic:

    https://diet.mayoclinic.org/diet/motivate/social-support-for-weight-loss?xid=nl_MayoClinicDiet_20151021

    Social support: A necessity for weight loss
    Finding support for your weight-loss efforts can mean the difference between success and failure.

    To build and maintain your support network:
    * Stay in touch. When we overeat, it's easy to feel ashamed and isolate ourselves. But support can be crucial in getting us back on track. So answer those phone calls, emails and texts, even when you're feeling down.
    * Recognize the importance of give and take. Express your appreciation for support and be ready to return the favor and help others achieve their wellness goals.
    * Learn who is best in what role. Maybe you thought your best friend would be a good person to vent to, but your friend is going through a tough time. That friend may make a better walking partner instead. Be open to learning who can support you in what manner: emotional, practical or inspiration.
    * Find a partner. Find a co-worker to walk with or a friend with whom to plan or cook healthy meals.
    * Join in. Take part in neighborhood events, community organizations, local exercise classes or active family get-togethers

    November here we come!!! Workout πŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈπŸ‹οΈβ€β™‚οΈWarriors on a mission!

    Hi Team!
    I was just added!
    My name’s Maddie, and I’m delighted to be here!

    I’d love to join the Daily Challenge & the Steps Chalkenge!

    Daily Challenge Goals (with my affirmation after it.)

    1. Net Carbs under 142g per day (Moderate Carbs) until I’m consistently at 155lbs or below for an entire week. (I’m in maintenance, shaving off the 2-5 lbs I let creep on over 6 months of figuring out maintenance.)

    πŸ’•My appetite disappears when I choose to eat this way. Why not make it easy on myself?!

    2. Macros/micros within my targets.
    πŸ’• I am a healthy eater by choice.

    3. Perform my pre-art ritual each day before noon.

    πŸ’• I am a practicing artist; creativity is my joyful life-enhancer.

    4. Practice Gratefulness throughout the day.

    πŸ’• Life & health are awesome; I won’t take them for granted!

    5. Say positive things to myself about my body & face at least 3X a day.

    πŸ’• I am a lively, beautiful woman!


    Step Challenge:
    Steps > 7,500 daily except rest days;
    Weekly Avg > 8,000
    30 mins of exercise (even mild) daily

    I’m in for the step challenge for November!

    Steps
    10/30: 13,963
    10/31: 17,385
    11/01: 27,809

    My goal for November is to end the month at the same weight I started the month. Judging by how my first couple of days in Italy have gone that might be difficult! We’ve had some really good food and wine so far and I have 2 more weeks here. I’m enjoying every bit of it though!

    My posting might be sporadic the next couple of weeks but I will be back full time for the second half of November!

    Well let me know what the strategy is, because I have no clue. It's a given...I'm gonna eat cake, even if I have to starve myself for a week. The funny thing is my son, best friend and Marine Corp birthday all fall on the same day, November 10. Aye Caramba!

    Daily Step Goal:
    11/1: 6,170 :/ Not a great day. I do usually get more but my dog was not feeling well and a lot of my steps come from her walks, pup is all better today though so hopefully I'll at least be closer to 10,000 by the end of today!

    Welcome Jim! You are another inspiring story of weight loss. My daughter just had an ablation in August for SVT - her heart rate would jump into the 220's several times a day. So grateful for the ablation - it was very scary/disruptive while it was occurring! You must be feeling so much better now.[/quote]

    Thanks for the warm welcome.

    Glad your daughter is feeling much better. Yeah, I had those days when my heart rate would go thru the roof and my wife had to take me to the ER. It's scary. I couldn't walk a half mile without feeling so tired and my heart beating a mile a minute. And I was on so many heart medications that made me feel sick as a dog every single day. But after the ablation, I feel so much better. I don't take any medication except OTC meds like allegra, magnesium, etc

    Went to my Cardiologist today and my numbers are great. I do have a loop recorder implant in my chest that records ECG and cardiac arrhythmias that is transmitted to my Cardiologist, and so far so good.

    I am so glad you're feeling better. Yes, the meds are awful. My daughter tried to take them but was miserable & since hers stopped within about 10 minutes the doc OK'd skipping them. Great that your data looks good! Hopefully that means it worked for good!!!
