    @Megan_smartiepants1970 I am going to have to drop out of the step challenge until further notice. I had been flirting with a sore knee, and today's walk was the most painful one yet. I obviously need to rest it. This is just par for the course...every time I get on a fitness roll, the universe sends up a road block, to test just how serious I am about getting back into shape!

    Mystere Cirque de Soleil. I always wanted to see a Cirque de Soleil show. I hope your knee feels better soon. I had knee trouble, 2 meniscus tears surgery. I had the same knee replaced 6 years ago. I learned that rest was my friend. That and a ton of cortisone shots. Take care of it.

    Friday Weigh-In
    PW: 214
    CW: 214.7


    Thursday Recap

    - Eating only at Level 3: mostly -I had a salad for lunch, really wasn't at level 3 when I got home :(
    - Water (Goal 64 oz) : 48 ounces, another short day
    - Increased intensity while walking: yes

    - THOUGHTS: June on deck - new month - continued focus! Was hoping to see a lower number on the scale and definitely not one higher than last week... Bright side, at least it's an overall loss for the month.

    Good morning team. I am sure this gain won’t be long coming off. It didn’t help that we grabbed subs on the way home seeing our granddaughter all dressed up for her prom.

    This picture is from right before I started my weight loss journey. It’s me and my brother.

    This one is from yesterday. I am older but definitely thinner. This is my husband, myself, my granddaughter and her boyfriend.

    Anyone else like to share progress photos?

    I will carry over last weeks weight. Have fun!

    @Slimmersixties
    Are you back from vacation? I know you will lose that quickly when you come back.

    Steps 2.410

    Good morning. I got up early so I can go to the pool this morning before grocery shopping. I am still pretty sore from travelling. Usually, when I fly I have trouble with my leg but it’s definitely my back this time. I am not sure how much exercise I will get done but I will do stretching both in the pool and the hot tub. If my back allows me I will do some laps.

    I want to get my June badge on my Apple Watch. I have to do 5 walking workouts. I missed getting February and Aprils. I used to be excited to work on them each month so maybe if I aim to get them every month it will help with my exercise motivation.

    Have a great Saturday!
