@Megan_smartiepants1970 Great plan - our bodies need recovery days once in a while - and you have been knocking it out of the park with your workouts lately!1 -

It saddens me that our wonderful team is so quiet... I am hoping that we can be more chatty in May ...If anyone has any suggestions on how we can become more talkative please do not be shy and share your thoughts ...Thanks 2

Good evening all.
Check in for 4/27:
Steps - 6539
Calories - about 1850. Forgot the number.
Exercise - slow short walk. Decided to cut it short and head to the store instead.
@lindamtuck2018 I think I will like my initial range to be 230-220. I don't know how much swelling I will have or how much they are removing. I will modify it when everything settles.
My pre-op was freaky. The nurse took my vitals and my surgery was put in jeopardy. My pulse had dropped to 44 bpm. They switched machines and still low. Took an ekg and it read 48 bpm. They decided to let me continue, thankfully. I got the OK to take my iron pills but not the multivitamin. So, as of tonight, I am a go for the 6th.
I am going to take it very easy this next week. I don't want to get hurt. Tomorrow I want to hit the gym but will drop weight on my lifts.2 -
@Megan_smartiepants1970 please feel better. I hope your regimen change will help.

TOM showed up Wednesday morning, fun! Went bit over calories Wednesday evening. Been cooking a lot from fresh and enjoying it.2 -
Happy Thursday, Downsizers! Here's my check-in:
4/27:
Calories: 1,231
Exercise: 70 minutes elliptical
Steps: 13,420
I attended a women's business networking event last night - was very proud of myself because I mingled for the entire 2.5 hours - but didn't touch the appetizers and alcohol - came straight home afterwards and ate my planned, healthy dinner. I have another busy day today - getting ready to head out and won't be back until this afternoon. Thankfully, MFP has fixed the issue with logging in - so I'm able to access the app again.
@rwood566 I'm so glad you will be able to move ahead with the surgery. Which procedure will they be starting with?
@roz0810 Congratulations! Excellent loss! I'm so glad you've been enjoying cooking your own meals - doing that made a big difference for me.
@Megan_smartiepants1970 We definitely haven't been as chatty lately - hopefully things will pick up!
I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Hey Downsizers - here's some info from MFP:
***MFP DOWNTIME SCHEDULED FOR 6AM PST 4/28***
We have been experiencing some extended issues that have resulted in us needing to do a brief window of downtime where MyFitnessPal will be unavailable. This downtime is scheduled for 6am PST / 8am CST on the morning of Thursday, 4/28/22 and is expected to last 2 hours. PLEASE SEE https://support.myfitnesspal.com/hc/en-us/articles/5716717249933 dedicated to the aforementioned extended issues for detailed information on what is going on, and what to expect during this downtime. We will also be updating that featured post with any updates that take place during this downtime window.1 -
@rwood566
Wow, that is a low pulse. I am glad they are going ahead with your surgery. Resting until surgery is probably a good idea. Can you do me a favour? When the May team chat opens can you do a post about your journey. It’s so inspiring and we can all use some inspiration at the beginning of a challenge.
@roz0810
Fantastic loss! What are some of your favourites that you have been cooking?
@peng123
That’s impressive! You are so focused.
@Megan_smartiepants1970
It is super quiet.1 -
Steps: 15,388
Exercise: 72 minutes of laps, arms, abs and water exercises
Well I am proud of myself for doing more than an hour of exercise yesterday. I am up early this morning so I can get to the pool as soon as it opens as I have an appointment at the hospital just before lunch. I am terrified of my weigh in tomorrow. I had a few days of stress eating as we are dealing with a family situation. I really wanted to have 4 weeks in the green this month. Right now I am up 2 pounds so I am praying for a whoosh tomorrow.
Happy Thursday!2 -

Sounds like a nice Mom/daughter time. If you are like me, if I stress about it I will eat more. When I go to Atlantic City in May, I am not logging food for 4 days.2 -
Hi all,
I have been mia for the last two weeks. I moved in for a week with the man I started dating. We have been so happy together that we have decided to make it permanent. I will weigh in tomorrow morning. Please move my weigh in days to Fridays.3 -

I am disappointed with the gain. I did finish the month with a loss bigger than my goal for the month so that’s good.
Have a super Friday!
