That was almost my tip and I think it's the key to all the other tips. If we give up then no tip or amount of advice or encouragement is going to work. I've been trying to get to my goal weight for over 30 years, and yes I've stopped way more times than I obviously should have, but I have NEVER given up completely. And I NEVER will!!!
@Navydaddjtc, super excited about the new direction you are taking our group!! I have done Leslie's videos in the past and have forgotten how fun she can be. I just might need to get to stepping with her from time to time.

@TeresaW1020, Thanks for asking about my profile picture. That's Ollie, and she is a shepherd/chow mix. I also have a retriever/spaniel mix named Ed. They get so excited to go for a walk after I get home from work, and that is one of the ways I get extra steps in everyday. I see you have a cute pup in your picture - who is that?

What great names!! My girl is Maggie Mae and she is a 3-year-old Cavapoo who truly rules our house. Here is another pic of her.

I have Beachbody on Demand and workout out in my home. When I first started about three months ago I had done a program called 21-Day Fix. I loved it but I couldn't do 21 days in a row. Yesterday, I started the program again and this time I'm going to do the full 21-days even if it kills me!!
What I've learned is that I LOVE using weights! 
1 -
Today's workouts are resistance training (done this morning - I too love weights!) and a 75-minute martial arts class!
Two years ago, I was having trouble walking. Now I can do things in martial arts like jump in the air (not possible two years ago) and come down in a scissors stance (not even on the radar of possibility two years ago). Such fun!1 -
@hinemoa2088 and @TeresaW1020 - You guys have seriously cute pups! 😍
@mrmcgrath - So you basically stayed steady the week of Thanksgiving -- great work!
Oh, and I love the Eleanor Roosevelt quotation!
@digger61 - Another great day from you, especially all those steps! 👍🏽
@leonadixon - I love your tip! "Don't give up " is a great mantra. And I think it might be especially helpful for weigh-ins right after holidays! 👣👣👣1 -

Words of wisdom from our fabulous captain TeresaW!
I love Leslie Sansone's videos, too! Walking has been super helpful for me. Any speed --- super fast is not required!0 -

Hi gang. Teresa, thank you for replying to my depressed post, it means a lot to me. I regrouped and am in a better headspace.
Wednesday check-in
Calories- under
Exercise- bike, elliptical, weights
Water- over
5 for 90
1. Gym 3xs a week- went today
2. Exercise- done
3. Social media- not the best
4. Decluttering- weakest area this week but I want to get my grow table up and running again and it needs to be cleaned off.
5. Trigger foods- ok, stopped eating all my apples craving something sweet and did great yesterday with eating and workout. Went to leave for gym and mailman was here with a gift package of cookies! I ate a couple, got my act together, and went to the gym. I'd feel awful throwing them away so I put them in the freezer. If I can't moderate them they're out of here!1 -
There have been tons of studies on why drinking water is so important for us. Some people may disagree with the amount of water we need in a day but everyone will agree that the body needs fresh, clean water in order to function at it's best. I try to drink a gallon a day and I start that out by drinking 16 oz. first thing in the morning. It's very easy to down an 8 oz. glass of water. I keep a glass in the bathroom and near my kitchen sink and will drink throughout the day. I also have a huge cup I carry around with me. I really like plain water but I also LOVE sparkling water and buy a ton of seltzer water. I also use those True Lemon packets or just a squeeze of lemon or lime in my water when I want a flavor. Another tip is that I don't buy any sodas or juices for my house. I might have a Diet Coke when I go out to eat but that is it.
Are you drinking your water?

I certainly try to get at the minimum 64 oz. lately I have been falling just shy of that mark. I need to step it up. I like your suggestion of drinking 16 oz first thing. I should start haveing a glass before my morning coffee!1 -
