    Good morning everyone!

    I’m posting today to say that I’ll be leaving TBBT for a while but want to really thank everyone who has given me support over the last year in this brilliant group. I’ve been thinking for a while that weighing as frequently as I do has been messing with me head a bit and after speaking with my PT who suggests only weighing in monthly, I’ve decided I want to give that a go and see if it helps me. I’ve got too stuck in the cycle of losing for the scales and having some unhealthy behaviours associated with it.

    Thank you particularly to @cmhubbard92 and @brandi_84 who have been around a long time and have always been so encouraging 😘

    Wishing everyone the very best!!

    @Coral333
    I am sad to see you leave. I understand how weighing daily/weekly vs monthly thing messes with the mind, though. I wish for you to have great success with your weight loss journey.

    I've been dealing with back pain since Wednesday, and today has been unbearable... hoping an early night rest and extra sleep will help :)

    @cmhubbard92
    I am so sorry you are having back pain. I hope you were able to get a good night's rest and feel better.

    @brandi_84 thank you. It is somewhat better today, so I was moving around a lot more. Hopefully I feel even better tomorrow :)

    I not going to do the mini challenge this week. My mom has a stroke this weekend. She is in ICU. We’re hoping for a good recovery but it’s too soon to tell. I’ll check in when I can, but I just can’t deal with logging or calories right now.

    @simbersea I am keeping you in my thoughts! Please, don't worry about any challenges, and focus on you and your family. 💜

    I ultimately decided I am not happy with my most recent progress. I feel like I am doing the right things, but I am really going to be stricter on myself. I adjusted my goal for loss and my activity level, so hopefully I find a calorie goal that starts pushing me in the right direction... now that I have been settling in ONEderland, I want to get the hell out of the 190s, and see low 180s soon! I am sorry I haven't been super supportive recently, but between having back pain and being down on myself, I just have been trying to see what will work best for me! I will get better, I promise! :)

    You know our bodies can stuck in the same weight because they know the process we doing so try to break and vary your calories through the week also shift exercises you will see the difference and you will see 180s 💪

    I know the feeling. I also just want to get out of the 90's. Let's pick up the pace and see if we can get out of it together!

    @mhassan160 I try to do that, my calories do bounce around a bit! But I think part of my issue is that my calorie goal was set much higher than I think it should have been. I am going to work with a calorie goal of 1210 plus exercise calories, and see where things go :)
