@red1185
Weekends are definitely tougher but you did great taking the dog out to get those extra steps.
@lcfa5317
You are right tracking is so important. I like to track in advance so I know what I have to play with in extra calories. Sounds like you had a nice day with your Mom!
@lelbarou
Awesome loss and your steps for yesterday are great!
@mszoueb
Another great week! Your food looks amazing! You are keeping things interesting and losing weight.
@Tazaria87
I like that you always find a way to reach your step goal. Stretching is something I need to do more of. I always forget and end up so sore the next day.

Weekly Goals
Weights 2x/wk:
Bike 3x/wk✔️
Walk 5x/wk: ✔️
After the kids went home yesterday I decided to jump on the bike to get ahead start on my weekly goals. I was able to spend longer on the bike because I didn’t pedal like crazy as I was doing before. Hopefully, I can continue to increase little by little.
I am running behind today as I been on the phone trying to straighten out the mess the dental office made with the cost of my husbands dentures. So I have nothing done yet today. I am going to grab a quick lunch and get a walk in before I start my cleaning. I was hoping to get on the bike again today but I don’t think I will have enough time before I have to start supper.
Have a great day!

Haven’t had a step day like this in a long time! Party was a huge success! I was exhausted after getting up early. Hopefully all these steps helps counteract the pizza I ate. I need to not do anymore kids entertaining this usually this is the easiest meal for them and I end up eating more than I want to.5 -

3/22
Saw my primary physician for a follow up. She said the weight loss was most likely flushing out all the iv fluid. Also scheduling an injection test to determine the amount of pituitary hormone that I produce. She wasn't crazy about the fact that my first Covid vaccination was today but I am considered too high risk to delay it.
Vaccination went well and I feel fine. Staying close to home tonight to be on the safe side.
Today the hospital where Kevin died had a celebration of life for all the passed Covid patients and recovered patients. They gave red roses in honor of the dead to the staff and yellow roses in honor of the survivors and observed a moment of silence.2 -
Welcome to our team @shawnamee1 and @roz0810!
@rlaskey2
I’m glad the party was such a success! Pizza certainly is an easier option, and honestly, there’s nothing wrong with eating pizza! So long as we don’t eat pizza everyday, stuff like that in moderation helps us stay on track (instead of restricting it all together, then rebounding bad!)
@beautyofdreams
I’m glad you were able to get your vaccine today. It sounds like the hospital did a very nice job of honouring Kevin. I’m sure it wasn’t easy for you. I hope overall it was a positive experience for you.

So yah, I’ve been very silent the last week or so. I guess I needed that. I had a very productive weekend, and had a great appointment with my psychologist today. I talked to her about the fact I’ve been hovering within the same 10 pounds for the last 4 months. I recognize that given all the stress this winter, plateauing is actually something to celebrate. In the past, I would have gained, and I would have gained a lot. So, yes, it is a success. BUT, I am at month-four, so I expressed I needed some help to reignite my spark/motivation. Much of my motivation comes from feeling my clothes get bigger on me, and going to the next size down. I also love the feeling that I can physically do more. We developed a bit of a plan to get me started so I can start seeing those results again. This week, I have to run to the dollar store, and get some vases (or something like that), and getting some marbles… Once I have things all figured out, I’ll share my plan!6

Welcome @roz0810 and @shawnamee1
@Beautyofdreams I'm so very sorry to hear that. It sounds like it was a beautiful way to memorialize and honor the patients who had/have COVID. We need this to be over. Keep staying strong.
@heatherbluebell That's very good to hear, about your appointment. You sound rejuvenated. You are looking at this plateau in a positive light, which is the only way to look at it. Keep working the plan. The plateau will pass and you will come out of it, stronger and healthier.
@lindamtuck2018 Yayyyy! Longer time on the bike. Sounds like a great ride.
@red1185 Fantastic step number!

Thank you. Yes, it was such a good week with my son home:)
@Beautyofdreams
So nice to hear that the hospital had a celebration of life for those patients. Glad to hear you got your vaccine. Why wasn't the doctor happy to hear that you got it?
