    @TeresaW1020 I’m so excited for you, going clothes shopping!! I will live vicariously through you :-) :-). Please do let us know what you get!

    @leayjw celebrations are a wonderful thing!

    @trooworld That soup sounds delicious! I love making soups, stews and Chili’s for the winter.


    @vegan4lyfe2012 so sorry to hear about Hunter, definitely sending prayers your way, surgery and the aftermath is challenging at best. Hope all goes well with your mom surgery as well!
    Great job on no stress eating, that can definitely be my trigger! Keep your eye on that vacation and chill vibes♥️

    @Katmary71 I am sorry you’re having such a challenge with your insurance company, last thing you need to deal with on top of your pain! I wish I lived close to you, I would come and raid your tomatoes LOL. I love to make salsa and can it for the winter.

    @GabiV125 congrats on the loss, especially with it being your anniversary yesterday!!



    Goal ~ Lose 18 lbs
    1. Drink 500 ml of water before each meal✅
    2. Eat slowly by putting my fork down in between each bite✅
    3. Stick to calories and macros✅
    4. 3 big workouts a week and some form of cardio everyday (even just walking the dog) at least 30 min✅
    5. Track everyday✅

    Welcome to the team @lose4me71! We are happy to have you join our little community. Just jump in and make yourself at home! :)

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Ohhh my! I am praying for quick and complete healing and recovery for poor Hunter. I will also be praying for your mom and for you. Don’t give in to stress eating because it will only make you feel worse. Breathe, pray, and take care of yourself. <3

    @GabiV125 Happy anniversary and yayyy for the scale behaving! I live in the south too and there will be NO winter fluff on me either! ;)

    @laurelfit57 Girl, I got so much stuff and some great deals at the outlet mall! :) Two pairs of pants, 2 jackets, 1 sweater, 6 shirts, three pairs of sneakers, and a lovely necklace/earring set. I still need some new boots and a nicer lightweight coat for church. Then I can stop for a while. I really don’t want too much because I’m hoping to be down another size by spring.


    Hi Team! As I wrote above to laurelfit57, I had a great time shopping and I’m very thankful for my generous and patient husband who came with me. We had a nice lunch at Longhorns and the sweet waitress surprised us with ice cream when she found out that next month is our anniversary. So, while it broke my no sugar rule it didn’t hurt the scale this morning and it was very tasty! :) Today, I did my church work, and this evening is church with the kids. I slept lousy last night so I will probably be in bed way before 10 pm tonight.

    :star: 100 DAY CHALLENGE – DAY SEVEN :star:
    1. Track Food & Stay within calorie/macros: I tracked and was right at my calories and over on protein.
    2. Exercise/Physical Activity: I did Beachbody LIIFT 4 Back and Biceps
    3. Weight (gain or loss) 175.4, down from yesterday but up still up from Monday.

    Me: 20
    Sugar: 9


    🎊100 days challenge🎊
    Day 7
    🎉 No sugary snacks 🎉 5/100
    🎊 No eating after 7.30 🎊 5/100
    🥳 Exercise every day 🥳 4/100

    2 stressful days lead to some poor snacking choices - I bought my kids some cakes and i ate half of them 🤫 back on track today 🙂

    I cancelled all exercise this week, apart from pilates, as my knee gave way several times on Monday (had a ligament reconstructed 4 years ago). Im back on the physio exercises so I will count them as my exercise until it starts to feel more stable.

    Krea4 Yikes, take care of your knee for sure! I’ve had to cancel my workouts from time to time when my knee starts acting up. Glad to see you are back on track! :)

    @trooworld Do you have any fun weekend plans? :)

    Hi Team! Not much going on today. I had a long staff meeting and then I cleaned one of the buildings. I will go and clean the other one tomorrow plus do some church computer work while there. Tomorrow night we are having a movie on the lawn. It’s our first community outreach event since Covid and we are all excited. We even bought a popcorn machine! :grin: Eating has been good today and I’m happy that I’ve closed this month out with 21 zero added sugar days. I had six days with under 5 grams of added sugars and only three days that were way over.
    :star: 100 DAY CHALLENGE – DAY EIGHT :star:
    1. Track Food & Stay within calorie/macros: I tracked and was under in calories and nailed my macros.
    2. Exercise/Physical Activity: I did church cleaning today
    3. Weight (gain or loss) 177.0 Not sure why it was up this morning. I had salty ham for dinner and I did a heavy weight lifting workout that might have contributed.

    @TeresaW1020 Super excited for you and your new wardrobe! I am planning that sort of shopping trip in the new year :-)! As I am losing weight, I have a few clothes in every size on the way down, so I will make do with those until I reach goal weight:). It sounds like you not only had a great shopping trip, but also an amazing day with your husband, lucky lady!
    My word, I think you earn a ton of activity points cleaning that church! A movie night outside and popcorn sounds like so much fun!!

    @krea4 so sorry to hear about your knee! Hopefully your Physio will get you straightened around quickly. When I used to have kids living at home, them getting snacks meant I was responsible for all the leftovers🤣.

    @trooworld I am glad that you are able to work from home, I know some people sure find it a challenge.

    Hi all and Happy Friday! I've been reading along with your posts, but nothing too interesting going on here, so I've been quiet. I'm over the moon about my weigh in today. Didn't feel I was quite dedicated enough this week, but I guess I was wrong. I'm looking forward to seeing that 7 turn into a 6. I'm looking forward to losing 20 pounds and being halfway to my goal! Now I've just got to keep my act together during my October vacation and the holidays!

    Have a nice weekend!

    Lisa

    @TeresaW1020 - Hey there anniversary twin..... we have decided to visit North GA for our anniversary trip. Gonna see the mountains and maybe some fall leaves? I'm very excited. We are going before our anniversary because it worked out better with bookings.

    Whew! I have made it through this rough week of my daughter's emergency surgery Monday night and my mom's scheduled surgery Wednesday. I am ready for a break from them :smiley: and excited about 31 Days of Halloween! I know some of my buddies on here enjoy their horror, too, so if you have planned your 31 Nights of Horror movie list, please share it! I'm still working on mine. Hard to find a good balance of old and new, seen and unseen. I'll post it later when I finish it.

    I have stayed pretty consistent with my 100 Day Challenge. I overate a little yesterday, but I assessed and am aware why...I indulged in a pizza that was yummy, high in calories, but I knew it wouldn't keep me satisfied for very long. I ended up over calories, but was still well within my maintaining window. I'm looking forward to another happy weigh-in on Sunday.

    Have a fantastic Friday, my friends!

    NO MORE EXCUSES!
    WITH PURPOSE!

    @lose4me71 Welcome to Slimpossibles!

    @TeresaW1020 Sounds like you had a great day, your shopping sounds fun! And a little ice cream sounds awesome! Enjoy the community outreach, that's great you get to do it again. I like this month's goals!

    @krea4 I hope your knee feels better, sounds smart to rest for a bit.

    @trooworld Beef and barley soup sounds awesome! If you bought that Rootitoot cookbook for the IP it's a really good recipe, I think I told you to add more barley though if you make it. I wish that cookbook author hadn't passed away, she was a great person and an amazing cook.

    @trooworld Congratulations on getting Tonal, I can't wait to hear how you like it!

    @Cornanda Congratulations on a good weigh-in, don't you love a surprise good weigh-in?!

    @vegan4lyfe2012 How is your daughter feeling? I noticed a few of the cable channels have horror movie marathons this weekend, I remember AMC and I saw some good ones on FX too. There's the Halloweens on AMC today and tomorrow and some of the Friday the 13ths. I have the Purge set to record, how funny that it's on your list, you must've scoped out the channels too!

    Hey gang, I turned 50 yesterday and went to donate blood but had a fever and was turned away. I'd planned to go to my brother's but was concerned just in case but they had COVID tests so I took one and I'm fine, not sure why I had the fever. My brother made salmon and had cupcakes then he talked to me about doing some work for him. We're going out Sunday with my parents and brother's family. Tomorrow's my first HOA board meeting as secretary. Not much else going on, I started doing Core Secrets yesterday which is a stability ball exercise routine by Gunnar Peterson, I have the video around here somewhere but found it on YouTube. It felt great to use my legs working out again but my back was sore from all the core exercises. Diet's good aside of my birthday.
