    @therealbluenote want to know the worst part of my day? We went on a tour at work, walking through one building, upstairs and downstairs, up a hill to the next building, up and down more stairs, down the hill back to the first building. And NONE OF MY STEPS COUNTED!!! 😭😭 It was a secure facility so I had to leave my Fitbit behind. 😭😭

    Oh no!!! πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

    No scale here in Indiana which is probably a good thing after everything I ate this week.😯 I'm very much looking forward to getting back home and back to my normal eating and exercising routine.

    What a bummer! But don’t forget the body keeps the score! You are awesome!

    And I’m starting to think you have a really important job! πŸ₯· πŸ€—

    Ok, back to my normal routine today.

    @murdog3t thin mints are my downfall.

    @Tomsgal1985 I could tell you what I do but then I'd have to shoot you. πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‚

    @HASWLRS and @therealbluenote I'm sorry you guys are struggling 😞 how can we help?

    @murdog3t posting here definitely helps me. I haven't been posting MUAC lately as it's impossible to accurately log 3 restaurant meals a day πŸ˜• but logging in definitely helps keep me mindful of what I'm doing and eating.

    In other news, I have no idea what is happening with the BL challenge as a whole. I know the moderator had some family issues a few months ago and she hasn't posted since early March. I hope things are ok and certainly understand how life takes precedent over
    unnecessary online stuff. I wish I could volunteer to help but it's all I can do to track y'all, nevermind the other teams as well. That said I definitely don't want to lose touch with anyone here. I've become very attached to you guys. πŸ₯° So keep posting here and we'll play it by ear.

    Have a great day! 🌞

    Feeling better today, mentally and physically. I was actually hungry at one point yesterday πŸ˜‚ which was a welcome change after the over stuffed feeling I had all week.

    I have been in a real funk since I came home from Italy. Before Italy I didn’t have to deal with my school closing and then me finding the perfect job that would get worked out after Italy and then the school saying it was staying open as a private school and then me trying to figure out how I can do both part time jobs next year and then finding out my school is actually barely going to make it one more year and dealing with the grief of it not only because it’s my job and my Alma Mater but having such sorrow for my sophomores and juniors, of which half had decided to leave anyway when the archdiocese announced the closing back in the fall so my chorus is dropping from 35 members to 15. And struggling with what to do with my part time proofreading job, musician gigs, concerts coming up. So I went into shutdown mode so I didn’t have to deal with any of it. πŸ™„πŸ˜‘

    So, yeah. I’ve been eating a lot. 🫀

    @therealbluenote I have been remiss...I was thinking about your school but was afraid to ask you what the status was. Shame on me. :( It seems we have a full struggle bus lately. We need to start making stops and letting people off. (cue Kramer driving the bus in that one Seinfeld episode LOL)

    Hi my friends. I had to read a lot to catch up on all of you. I got approval to try and use my row machine again but slow slow slow with someone close by. I am still doing water exercises but walking is still not too good I still need walker. I am finally starting to get some time free from Maggie but I have to prove to Jordan I can handle it. She is moving out soon. I gained a lot of weight back but would like to come back. I really miss everyone and trying hard to get my life back. Can I please pretty please rejoin team next month? I’m not rockstar anymore but I think will be good for my mental health.
