Sorry it's so late. I was super busy the past couple days. We are residing our house so trying to get everything for that plus we currently have asbestos siding so we need to properly dispose of that. Plus we had to go buy windows to replace ours. Then yesterday my son had 3 appointments, it's just been hectic2 -

Good morning Shape Shifters. I had an okay day. Still woke up with a headache, but it slowly got less over time. The weather was pretty bad, so I didn't walk Tinus a lot. I was very bored and hungry in the afternoon, but it wasn't time to eat yet, so I figured it was a good time for my workout. I did 46 minutes. The rest of the day was pretty lazy. I just filled in my habit tracker for next month and I am excited for March to start.
If you are new or you have never tried the habit tracker out, I would really recommend giving it a go! Also keep in mind your tracker isn't supposed to look perfect though it is nice getting a 'perfect' day. You are likely working on new things and we are not robots, merely human. I see it as a useful tool that shows you the areas that still need work. Because it resets every month, you can easily switch up goals as well. Here is the link for the Shape Shifters tab of the tracker: Click me
Happy Saturday everyone

Good morning Shape Shifters! It was a very good week with no traveling, mindful eating, and exercise, and I’m happy to see that reflected on the scale.
Planning trips to Vegas and Miami for mid-March, and realize I need all new clothes that fit!!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!4 -

I've been working on improving my diet, and especially my snacking. My cat that I adopted 12 years ago died last month and I eat my feelings. We lost one of our dogs at the end of July as well. They were old pets, but it came a bit unexpectedly for both. Last week was both my cat's birthday (anniversary of his adoption date) and the 1 month anniversary since we had to say goodbye.
I've recently picked up cycling along with my weight training, and am going on my first organized group ride tomorrow through Houston. It's my first ever group participation event and group ride, so I'm looking forward to learning a lot.

Good morning y'all! I love that I've been added to the Shape Shifters group -- helps with the mindset... I really want to become less of a round shape.
Up until this school year, I had been a special education teacher in an elementary school. In 2019, I decided to go back to college and have been taking 2 classes (3 in the summer) each semester as well as teaching full-time. This school year, I am working as a school psychologist intern (I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!). I'm struggling with the freedom that I have in scheduling my days now -- I am out and about with easy access to fast food almost daily.
In 2021 I lost 30 pounds but I ate it all back. I felt (and looked) so much better 30 pounds down! I am determined to lose that much (and more) and keep it off this time. I recognize that two things helped: tracking my food intake and having a community of people with the same mindset to turn to. I hope that I can get back on track and stay there!
I look forward to learning about all of you!3 -

This week I hit my step goal (12,000) 4 times. I did 30-40 min weight/circuit training class 3 times this week. I also went on a 1 hour bike ride with a friend. It is really frustrating that the number on the scale is not changing, but I know I need to do a better job at eating healthier. I am going to add the goal to track everything I eat this week.2 -

I have seen a lot of people in a different group here talk about Stridekick. It is an app that works for people with all kinds of trackers, Fitbit as well, and you can do challenges and earn badges there. Maybe that is something you will enjoy. I made an account there to check it out and it looks pretty fun.1 -
@bbaldree64
Welcome to the group and thank you for the introduction! It is always nice to learn a little bit about the person behind the username. I hope you will find our group helpful. Good luck with your journey!1 -

Yeah I've seen that too but the Fitbit App will be gone and I won't get my sleep, workout stats, or emails anymore so I'm going to probably go to a Garmin and use their app1 -
@LaurieWrobo
Where did you get that information from? The email I got said open groups would be removed and all challenges and adventures. Everything else should still be there.2 -

I wasn't aware of any of that. I have a charge 4 and I am pretty happy with it. I guess I will see what happens, but I am not ready to panic just yet. Thanks for the info.1
