    @cmhubbard92 can you please roll my weight over? It’s too crazy here/now but I want to stay if it’s not too late. Thank you!

    @GeminiLady159 I'm sorry but you missed two weigh ins and were removed from this months' challenge. I would suggest, if you're still interested, to sign up for the May challenge when registrations open up!

    I could ask to have you added back, but I will need your info - updated weight , month's starting weight, and your day to submit weigh ins, but I don't know if it is too late/complicated for the people running the group.

    Ok no worries-I’ll just rejoin in May. That’s about how fast I’m getting stuff done lol. Sorry!

    @GeminiLady159 no worries! I understand how crazy things are! *hug*

    Tracked: Yes
    Under: Yes
    Exercise: Yes - 21 Day Fix (Day 11) - Yoga Fix (30 Minutes)
    Water: 100
    Steps: 13,906 (currently)

    Goals:
    9,000+ steps? ✔
    Prepared Lunch? ✔
    Only 1 Snack after dinner? ✔
    Yoga? ✔ 30 minutes

    Today was another yoga day for me for my workout plan. It was the same video I completed on Saturday(maybe Sunday?), and I am realizing how "fast" Autumn's yoga is! I have a hard time keeping up (but my puppy doesn't help much, either-I am going to edit a picture in).

    Work has been crazy busy this week. I have been pulling all online orders for customers the last two days, and my fitbit steps aren't even accurate-my phone(in my back pocket while at work) clocked over 16,000 yesterday and today. I am mentally preparing myself for another crazy day, tomorrow... The day will be swamped with so many people looking to just pick up their orders and go... And also, I need to find a mask. I ruined the one that my boyfriends mother made (oops) and only have a dusk mask that won't be good for long... We have to have face masks as of tomorrow, per our governor... I will have to see if I can get fabric, somewhere, and try to make my own, or just use a scarf/bandana, once my only mask is no good!

    You're awesome for putting in the total of muac days you have completed. I love how you have been putting in your daily stats.

    I had some time yesterday to do some replies here but mfp community was down for maintenance.

    @brandi_84 the funniest was when I did upward dog and he was trying to lick my face! My boyfriend found it hillarious! The tricky part is when I am doing the other workouts, because he gets hit (by accident) and then getting right back in the same spot! He is adorable, though, and all is forgiven! :)

    Thanks guys! After organizing my posts this way I have noticed it's been much easier to look over the week and figure what might be effecting my weigh-ins. I highly recommend to all this way especially if stuck in a rut and can't figure a way out🧐

    @krysless2 thank you! I honestly didn't feel like doing it at all, but I knew I had to get it done! My arms were killing me from all the lifting I did yesterday, and I knew my yoga session was going to be tough! Today is looking to be the same!

    Christine, wow--very hectic days. I am impressed at how you are still determined to fit in the yoga and make your goals. I hope you were able to get or make a mask. I know there are a lot of seamstresses who are making them and giving them away, may be able to find on NextDoor or Facebook group. Best of luck!

    It's not pretty, but here it is. For the past few days, I've been running about 200 calories over my goal. Today I will be focused on eating more protein and vegetables, to help fill me up longer.

    My scale is stuck. It goes up and down within a tiny range but just seems to like to stay the same. Ugh. If it stays like this another week I’m going to have to change something- just not sure what.

    Here's my weekly update 😕 Our Governor announced yesterday that school is cancelled for the rest of the year. Which is a bummer, but we were expecting it. This week has been so crazy with the kids school work. For most of the week the older kids didn't even have a chance to watch TV (not that its a terrible loss) because they're taking turns doing school work until dinner, and then after dinner they still have dance classes via zoom. I finished the 8 week Fitness Blender program I started at the end of February! I'm pretty proud that I was able to do the whole thing, didn't skip a workout. My weight loss wasn't huge, but I feel stronger. I was able to do more squats and a longer plank than when I started. I also am able to do a few real push ups now, not a lot, but I've only been able to do them from my knees.
