    A mixed week so far, still under a lot of pressure at work. So very hard not turning to food for comfort. Mentally exhausted so no gym but trying to get out for walks when I can.

    :D 1360! but that is Fitbit's fairytale number. It seems a deficit of around 400-600 might actually be maintenance for me...so it isn't quite as extreme as it may look. And...I've been stuck for months, so I need a little burst of something good to give me a psychic boost. And Connie and I are on our way to be even hotter mommas....time is of the essence...fall is coming...we have leather jackets and tight jeans to strut about in (well I don't have a leather jacket, but Connie does, and I will find something strut worthy).

    They are small time, Connie! All flash and no substance. ( I really don't know that...just guessing)

    We will be superwomen - hot and accomplished and remarkably full of substance for such long lean women!

    ✅ - Daily - take 15,000 steps. 20,165
    ✅ - Daily - aim for a calorie deficit. 1603
    ❎ - Daily - Up early - walk first thing. Up at 5:23, back to bed, then up at 9:45 and out the door at 12:30? lol
    ✅ - Weekly - calorie deficit +4500. 6,237.

    New week I'm adding a total weekly steps of 105,000 - so I can win a point back when I make up for low days!

    Freaky thought that it will add up to over a million steps by the end of the summer...gonna need more socks.

    Them too!

    I've seen a kinesiologist/osteopath a couple of times in the past month to help me with neck/shoulder issues while I wait for surgery - the first time, I had no idea I would have to take my boots off (I wear low walking boots with "bouncing soles" rather than shoes for out and abouting) - and low and behold I revealed holy toes on both feet. No big surprise, it is a pandemic - the stores were closed for quite a bit and I'm not so great (don't even try) at darning. The second time the stores had opened, I put on not-holy socks in the morning, took a circular route and walked a bit on my way there and a bit better, but there was one toe peeping out when I took off my right boot. He laughed...guess he doesn't care so long as they aren't stinky and I pay my bill.

    Over the past year I've gone through 3 pairs of boots and countless socks. Doesn't matter if they are $20 socks or $2 socks it seems as far as wear goes...though the $20 socks felt better though! :)

    Taking a bit of an MFP break again in July, under way too much pressure with work at the moment, but should all calm down in a couple of weeks once I am taking a weeks' holiday so I will pop my head in occasionally but won't be actively posting.

    PS. You're all kicking *kitten* - keep it up.

    Fantastic to have a newbie join us!

    So basically you set whatever goals you are trying to achieve. They can be strictly weight loss related - or anything else you might like to keep track of here. Then, every night you check in and let us all know how you've done.

    Once a week I put together a table showing your weeks goal accomplishment. The weeks run Monday to Sunday - but you can hop in whenever you please. The more of us doing this the more encouraging it feels.

    @Cheesy567 Weekly goals or a couple of times a week goals are also good!
