Hello everyone!
I reached my goal of 135 pounds back at the beginning of July and have been out of the active group for August and September due to travel but would like to rejoin in October.
My trips were wonderful- including a bucket list trip to Galapagos! But after landing in Miami, my husband got Covid, forcing us to drive back to Houston. After two days in the car with him, I got it too. So weeks of vacation eating plus junk food- just didn’t feel like cooking- I’m definitely feeling fluffy.
I’ve kept my weight within 5 pounds of my target weight, but find I’m always on the high side lately, so I’d like to revise my goal weight down to 130 pounds. My weigh in day is Friday so want to start with October 6th.
I’d also like to join the step challenge for October with a goal of 10,000 steps each day.5 -

Welcome back to the group @izzyred9400 and @SavageMrsMoose!
I’m glad your trip was all you expected it to be @SavageMrsMoose but sorry to hear about your COVID experience. That drive must have felt especially long while fighting COVID!
Enjoy your final days in Greece @izzyred9400 — what a nice trip! Thanks for sharing photos!1 -
@Pupowl - I sometimes use the TRX equipment at the YMCA gym near my house. I agree there’s a lot you can do with them. Usually, I do body weight exercises sand use the TRX bands but sometimes the trainer will guide us through a workout using free weights. Today, we couldn’t go out on the water for rowing so one of the rowers led us through some weight training. I’m sure I’ll be sore tomorrow because she encouraged us to try some heavier weights. She is a police officer and she’s very strong because she does a lot of strength training. We are fortunate to have her guidance during the winter conditioning sessions. I hope you’re able to get your order soon. Best wishes with the new exercise routine and thanks for the photos and stories about your daily walks. I’m always so impressed by the steps accumulated by our Shape Shifter walking group!3

@LaurieWrobo - I'm so sorry about your kitty. ((hugs)) I'm definitely a cat person and would be devastated too. Sounds like they had an absolutely wonderful life with you full of friendship and love.
@Pupowl - I'm not sure this helps at all, but Youtube has a good free workout series called, 'HasFit' and I really like their workouts.5 -

September is the cleanest and best I've ever eaten ... but apparently something went wrong. I have some systemic health issues and they went from a low-simmer to out of control / kicking my rear. I've spent a lot of days curled up in my chair. I'm changing my diet, again. I hope to have a better weigh in next week.

@Pupowl I picked up a TRX knock off from amazon a couple years ago. I don't know if that's an option for you. It's still in great condition after lots of use.
Great idea! I was also thinking about Craig’s list, Buy Nothing groups, e-Bay, Facebook Marketplace, etc. but I’m not sure what’s available in the Netherlands. We also have Goodwill and other donation centers that sometimes sell used exercise products but that can take more time and effort.1 -
@LaurieWrobo Very sorry for the loss of your sweet fur baby...this must have happened very suddenly...that makes it even harder...know that you gave him the best life you could and that he was completely loved...RIP little one...run free...
