    Happy with 3.5 lb loss.. Actually tracked most days this week. Got outside as much as possible. Stayed away from deserts. It's harder to track on the weekends because food and beverage intake varies wildly. Hopefully I can keep it up through a not so busy week when food just calls to me.

    Great job @loriinma. Switching gears to the work week is going to be a challenge for me.

    So I’ve got 42lb to lose.

    Hey folks I’m new to MFP - well using it this much anyway.
    I’m a bit worried, is this like only friends can see what you post, or if I post in the group only people in the group can see?

    I think I like the anonymous thing! 😊

    Anyway feel free to add me if that’s what you do here.

    Welcome @NatalieBkk ☺️

    So, I did not get up earlier enough to beat the heat. It was a shadeless 83* but I did it and now it’s not even 9:00 and my exercise ring is closed. Now to focus on my water intake 💧

    I have been so bad with water intake. Even when I try, I still manage to make only 6 waters.

    Today I will close my exercise ring (Apple Watch) and drink 80oz of water. Now that I said it, I must do it!

    I just got an Apple Watch and I am doing this, too! I am finding it really helpful to get and keep me moving!!!

    Count me in. I’ve gained back significant weight that I lost over the last year. I’ve got to reclaim my disciplined dietary and exercise regimens. Add me as a friend.

    Welcome @titabert!

    Tomorrow, I actually have to go into the office tomorrow so I am not going to be able to get in my am walk. But I get so many more steps when I go into the office and I will make sure that I take my little walk breaks. Plan on bringing breakfast and lunch so that I am not tempted to make bad choices.

    Welcome. I’m in the same boat. I know what to do, I’ve done it before, just need to get back to it.
