    Hi Megan,
    Can I make a step goal of 6000 or higher per day?
    Thanks!

    Just tell me a step goal you want to hit and I will enter it in the spreadsheet ....and then you try your hardest to hit that daily :)

    Hi Mega, Can I make it 8000? Thank you!

    You sure can :)

    That's awesome! I'm a long time member of MFP but a comer and goer lol. But these guys keep me motivated enough to come on daily and check in, and it's really helping with my weight loss!

    Reel in those newbies, heehee!

    10 years of homeschooling, that's quite a challenge! But great that your daughter has her routine :)

    If there's anything I can do to help in terms of, well, anything, let me know! PM me or whatever. I probably spend a good half hour a day on here before bed as part of my relaxation routine/me time, so if I can be of service, I'd be more than happy to be! Might keep me from getting bored and running off (lol, not that I've ever done that before!! :o )

    SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME. Oh yes I feel that. When I started my recovery journey with food, I came on here and joined a few challenges but there was one that was so bloody complicated that I just got overwhelmed and gave up! They had like games and stuff to win points, idk. It was a fun concept but I just didn't have the energy or time to dedicate to it.

    And I just think- if I stuck with it when I did, I would've been at a healthy weight by now and I wouldn't have prolonged my misery.

    However, I know I'm exactly where I'm meant to be. And I was meant to meet you guys when I did!

    I may be a little *obsessive* with this group and MFP as a whole, lol. But it is keeping me motivated and I just need a kickstart. It's like I said a few weeks ago, it's so easy to get caught up with the number on the scale, but in reality, it doesn't matter how much I've lost as long as I do my best and push past my comfort zone.

    And anyway, I lost nearly 15lb in a month, that's frigging amazing! I have jeans waiting for me in the next 2 sizes down (thanks to a sale online lol) and I'm feeling better moving around, being at work.... my feet not killing me as much when I am on them for 8 hours. Like all of that stuff.

    Anyway I am going off on a tangent (or a Tanya as friends used to call it) and waffling hahaha

    I hear ya ... I was in an amazing group back then but they were not nearly as talkative as we are here .....I am either not losing or I am gaining lately... I really need to dig deep and figure out my eating (it has been bad as of late) Workouts I got that down ...Congrats on your weight loss so far @littleflutterby :)
