@HASWLRS Thanks! Trying hard, although wish I were making actual progress rather than undoing damage. LOL
Quick unrelated question...I see that you edited this post, how is that done? I wanted to go back and fix a type-o once and couldn't figure out how.

I did this on my computer, so I cannot answer for a phone post. Truthfully, I have not been able to edit for weeks! But today I could! When your cursor is on your post, you will see a little gear symbol in the upper right hand corner. You click on that, and you have within 60 minutes of the original posting to edit, and I am pretty sure you can only edit once!!0 -
And just now, I thought I would try to edit my most recent post and it will not let me. Is it because I have quoted you in that post? I don't know.0

Hi TBBT
I'm a little behind this week. I haven't had a lot of opportunity to post on here much. I will get the MUAC results up by tomorrow. Sorry I'm getting it up so late this week.
You guys are doing awesome. Don't fret over damage you feel you have done over the holiday.
I think being on this weight loss journey is all about learning how to take care of ourselves and learning how to get back to taking care of ourselves after we have feasted during holiday/celebration. Or just because we felt like it one day.
Even after we reach our goals we are still going to have to take what we have learned from losing weight to maintain.

On my phone there is an image that looks like a sprocket to click on to edit. It is on the right corner of the post. You have to reload the page after you have posted before it appears. You have an hour to edit.
It is so close to the report button that I have to try like 5 times to get my finger exactly on the right thing to edit and not report my own post.0 -

If you refresh (little circle at top of screen) there will be a little settings button, and if you click it it will give you the option to edit. I will edit this post and add a screenshot.

@cmhubbard92 Thanks for the info! Guess I need to notice my spelling mistakes quickly.

How's everyone's Hump Day? I'm sitting through a boring conference call for work so thought I'd check in.
(Actually...I'm hungry and trying to distract myself from the Miss Vickie's potato chips in the pantry.) It's only 88 here today so I may try and sneak in a bike ride after dinner. It's been way too hot for that for about 10 days now. I tried about 15 times to reconnect my Fitbit Aria scale to my home network with no success. I hope after all of that it still functions as a scale, even if it won't synch with MFP or Fitbit, although I really wish it would. I will leave it alone for now and try again after I weigh myself on Friday (weigh-in day).
Have a great day everyone!!0 -

I’m with you on that thought. Always one of my biggest battles.
Maybe we need to look at it as undoing damage actually is progress? I don’t know, just trying to be positive0 -
@erikNJ I think "undoing the damage" is definitely considered progress! Each day is an opportunity to do better than the day before, and if we let one(or a few) bad day(s) derail us, then we end up where we were to begin with. If we have one or a few and try to get right back into our routine, then we'll most likely see results... Despite progress being super slow, sometimes!
Also, having days like this is SO important now, while we are in the process of losing. Whenever we reach maintenance, we can never go back to our old eating habits, but can still have these splurge/"bad" days that we are learning to balance...
I'm getting sleepy, I feel like my words are choppy. Sorry if they are-I can see my phone is auto correcting everything...

Happy Hump Day! We have had thunderstorms here since I got out of work. I nixed the plan to run
Tomorrow is another day! I hope you get the opportunity to enjoy a nice ride, and hopefully figure out your scale!!! 0 -

@brandi_84 I have my results to post, too, but haven't had the chance to get on my computer to post them... switching tabs is quite pesky on my phone, but so easy on the laptop!!!
You arec100% right about the learning process! It's a total lifestyle change/adjustment that we need to work on every day!!!0 -

Reflections:
Today was... hectic? I applied for a supervisor position at my job, but a different location. It is about 45 minutes away, so I'm really unsure about that. I currently have a 5 minute drive, but the raise should make up way more than the difference and my schedule would remain the same... I am on the fence about it, and I know it will be a while before I get an interview... anyways, my supervisor was teaching me some of his day-to-day stuff so I could learn more about it...
As I mentioned before, I did not run today, because it was thunderstorms when I got home. I relaxed, and didn't do anything besides make dinner. I read some of my book, only a few chapters to go before I am onto the second Game of Thrones book! I am heading to bed now, 2am comes early! 2 -
