    @Krysless2 i am the same way! I have to do the accountability challenge in order for me to stay on track and be fully aware. When I don’t, I usually end up not sticking with it!
    I hope you don’t mind but I think I wanna try that red and green dot thing cuz that is such a good idea! I just don’t want you to think I’m trying to copy you or something.

    @cmhubbard92 Welcome back! 🙋‍♀️ You were missed. I was beginning to think that everyone had abandoned me... ;)

    I'm still here :) I don't get notifications anymore, since the update, so I never see tags or anything, and it is still bothering me!

    Totally don’t mind!! I switch up the emojis sometimes too. As long as one is clearly a negative and other is a positive!

    Everydaywechoose, thanks for the quote. Something to ponder. We are often too critical of ourselves and our situation. Whoever said we are supposed to be perfect? We have our basic genetic mold, busy schedules, hormonal changes, water retention, family responsibilities, and a million other things going on that affect our bodies and our health. The important thing is that we are actively working on ourselves now. We should applaud ourselves for that!

    Go Team!


    The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies. Within it, at all times, it contains its whole potential. It seems to be constantly in the process of change: Yet at each state, at each moment, it is perfectly all right as it is.” – Paulo Coelho

    I appreciate your thoughts @redhatsenior. This is exactly what I mean when I say this group is healthy and suportive. Gracias mi amiga:)

    @Krysless2 I like the way you present your data. It's cool with the colors and all. What does the MUAC represent?
    Thank you! 🙂 There used to be a whole other forum called the Ultimate Accountability Challenge and because it was very successful the curator of this challenge, the Biggest Loser Challenge, brought the idea over here as an “option” for extra accountability. For me, I HAVE to do the MUAC to make this work.. it’s like the butter to TBL’s bread! Yin and Yang… Or what the pajamas mean to the cat?
    Need better analogies!! Lol

    I love the analogies, they are perfect!

    I just noticed that myself today! For awhile I was getting the notifications and the last couple days I haven’t been getting any 😭

    I got a message from @murdog3t saying that she has been unable to post in the group. Did anyone else experience this, and if so, how did it get resolved? Thanks.

    Rainy Days; Not being consistent; Getting 'stuff accomplished' while sitting on my bottom in front of a monitor, necessary at the first part of a new year but hard to get myself up and out. Weighing myself daily again and remembering all too well why I stopped doing that.

    Seeking a new balance. My walking buddy at work is leaving for another job in another community so I am bracing myself for independent motivation to continue the '3 o'clock' walk. I might need more than one buddy to keep it up, he was the one who was at the elevator every single day ready to walk a 5K. Fingers crossed I can motivate some others to walk with me daily.
