@kcpond Good morning Kevin...tough week...with my holiday luncheon yesterday, I'm probably going to see a gain this week as well...and we're leading into holiday party season, so it will be hard. I am going to try and do some extra walking to help counter some of the damage...do you walk while watching tv or do any of the walk videos on YouTube? I've found those to be helpful...I also just like to turn on my favorite playlist or upbeat station and walk/dance...as long we're moving, right?! Don't beat yourself up too bad...we all have tough weeks...just try to do what you can to mitigate...hope you have a wonderful weekend! YOU GOT THIS!!!

Sorry I haven't been very active here. The week before Thanksgiving at my office (in the U.S.) is always crazy busy as a lot of people will be on vacation next week.
Stayed somewhat consistent in my daily activity goal. Concept 2 (indoor rower company) always has a rowing challenge for charity from the day after Thanksgiving to the day before Christmas. That should keep me more consistent.3 -

@bearchested Nice loss this week! WTG! Things are crazy busy for my office too...but once Hanukkah kicks in, things slow down (international headquarters in Israel)...so things in the US slows down (YAY!)...

Wow what a change! I'm not sure I like it as much. I'm on Android. Anyway l was super busy. Had two sick kiddos. We got our flu shots on Sat. I went to go visit my dad last week and couldn't get the page to load before I left sorry.
Lw 183.5 if you had 185 that's fine.
Cw 182.6
So I was contiplanting the keto diet.
For now I'm not counting calories but have reduced my eating windows. Going for the 18 hour fast. Eating 12:00pm and 6pm. Which has been later more like 1 and 7. Lots of water intake at work. Trying to eat more veggies. Lots of walking on my days I work it's over 10000 steps.
We clean the school this weekend plus I have two extra shifts over the next two weeks. So I'm not worried about excersise. My poor body is taking a beating with all the bending and stiffness. Trying to also eat more fatty protein and less breads not quite keto. I'll try this first and see how it goes.1 -
Nice loss @KHill875 awesome week!!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend planned!
Sorry about the issues with the new look @jennifersusanmcdougall ...I understand it's even more weird in the Android environment...but I am told it's getting better. I like the larger fonts, but it does take some getting used to. Great job on your loss...for the last two weeks...Amazing! Try to remember to stretch before and after those extra shifts and then do a hot shower afterward...both will help with the stiffness...enjoy your weekend!

Good morning team. Friday is usually my gym day, but I wasn't feeling up to it so I cancelled in the morning. Had a relaxing day, working on my new puzzle, gaming and watching youtube.
Happy Saturday everyone

I'm having issues with my right foot with that lovely friend, plantar fasciitis this week. I wish he would just GO AWAY! So, rather than getting out and doing lots of walking, I'll have to somewhat take it easy this weekend...I have been pushing myself, but I am REALLY getting into walking more and just loving it. I wish I could experience for five minutes what 50 pounds down from now will feel like...I just know it's going to be glorious...
This week's luncheon was nice at work and I kept control. Yesterday's Chinese food has me a little swollen this morning and my foot on top of that...I'm not a very happy camper today, but trying to make the best of it...I've gotten up, showered, dressed and getting ready to head to the grocery. This upcoming week is Thanksgiving for us in the US. I'm not cooking...so I'll likely go out and pick something up. There will be a few choices, but today, I want to make sure I pick up some baked chicken from the grocery deli. It makes my life simpler and with all the extra work I've been doing at work, it's easier if all I have to do is steam some veggies and reheat the chicken for my dinner meals.
I've made the decision to stop teaching piano. After 23 years of teaching, I am looking forward to closing that chapter of my life. Don't get me wrong, I have loved every minute of it, but now, in my free time after my day job, I want to concentrate on me...walking, working towards my fitness and weight loss goals, reading, playing piano FOR ME and not others...looking forward to what this new chapter brings. Will be really hard to tell my current families and to announce it on my FB studio page though...not looking forward to that part...but life goes on...
OK, off to the store...enjoy your day all!

Ramblings of the day
Good morning team. Not much to report today. Had to increase my dose of the new meds on Saturday which I was really worried about. But it seems like I get less side effects on that dose. Cautiously optimistic about that since it has only been 1 day, so will see how it goes. Happy Sunday everyone
@jessicakrall8
That must have been a really hard choice to make. I can imagine a lot of time goes into it though, considering it's something you do besides your regular job. Making more room for yourself sounds like a great idea. I hope you will enjoy the extra time you free up!1 -

@suziieq56 Sometimes it's all about mitigating the damage! This next week, you'll likely see a good drop...good deal!
@Arc130 good loss!
@CasandraW Hopefully your week ahead will be a bounce back in the other direction!
@Pupowl Thank you for your kind words...yes, tough decision, but I'm just tired...and now that I can financially do without that extra income, my focus is just going in a different direction. I think 23 years is a good run...I'm sure I'll miss it though...the kids are always such fun and it's great to watch them grow in their ability...but it's time.
