my name is LaQuita I’m 35 living in Connecticut. I’m on a journey to better myself for my health. I was diagnosed with MS, so I’m trying to keep myself active. I don’t have any kids but I have my lovely niece and nephew they keep me on my toes. I’m not too outdoorsy I’m more of a homebody so hobbies are pretty much movies, art and books As well as Manga.
Welcome to the crew..1 -

Looking forward to starting next month and getting to know you all. My name is Marie, 60 years old and I'm single. I live in the U.S.A and I'm retired due to health issues. Most of my life I loved traveling and reading, and music. I can no longer travel, but instead watch videos of beautiful places and dream about them. I still love reading and listening to classical music.
Thanks for allowing me on your wonderful team.
Marie, 😃
Welcome in,lets get it down...

Are you guys ready for August? Anyone up for a challenge. How about we all set a monthly goal and see if we can reach it. It could be weight, fitness or a nutrition goal. Let me know if you are interested.

Yes, I'd like to participate in your challenge for August.
1. Like to lose at least 10lbs. (Being realistic, I'll start small with the hope of losing a little bit more than that)
Welcome to the team. Realistic goals are very important. I am sure you can reach your August goal.Step Challenge - Goal 8,500

it’s frustrating when factors we can’t control affect our exercise. Can you walk indoors anywhere? I know it’s boring compared to walking in nature.My Steps

I am disappointed but I know why I gained, too many calories. I did well with my eating yesterday and I have logged the weekends food. As long as I stick to my prelogged food I will be ok. I really have to watch my sodium intake as well.
Yay! I did my 4 days of exercise. I was planned on going to the pool but my back has other plans. I hope I get a surgeons appointment soon. I was referred 16 months ago. The spine specialist told me it would be an 18 to 24 month wait to just get an appointment. Our health care system is a mess in Canada.
Have a super Friday!

From experience i often do really well and manage not to gain when I'm on holiday ... then come back, relax a bit and then boom ... a gain! Grrrr sure you'll be back on track soon!0 -

Despite getting in just over 50,000 steps in 3 days at the Smoky Mountains, I guess there's only so much you can burn off if you're eating out 3 meals / day for almost a week. We had a great time on vacation and now it's time to get back to work!
Here we are at Sunset on one of the days (after we had a chance to clean up!)
