    The October Habit Tracker is up and running if you want to plan ahead and pick your commitments for the next month:
    https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10900392/habit-tracker-october-2023#latest

    If you choose those habits to track and doggedly follow through, you'll have the information you need to progress and/or learn where the issues are. It helps build those tenacity muscles!

    Hi all,

    I’m a new member of this group. Would love to make some new friends. My name is Sun (like sunshine). Let’s chat more to inspire each other.

    Hi all - I’m a new member. Excited to be here and trying to figure out what you all are tracking… Weight, steps, habits… it seems like there are weekly challenges mixed in with the monthly challenge? I signed up a couple of days ago so already my starting weight for October is off from actual. Will we all do an official weigh-in on October 1?

    Friday weigh-in

    Back down this week. Will it still be down next Friday? It's a mystery.
    I'm getting pretty tired of going up and down the same pound or so.

    Have a great week!

    Can I change my weigh in day?

    @addy0427 -

    Absolutely, which day were you thinking???

    EDIT: Looks like you're switching to Fridays - I'll make sure that's reflected in the main sheet.

    @sydditt -

    Nope, we all weigh in on our weigh days. Since your weigh day is Friday, I can record your weight for today as your starting weight for October, which you can then compare to your first weigh day on October 6th. All of the other things we track, steps and habits, are entirely optional - I'd be more than happy to help you get started with either one of those if you're interested. Let me know!

    Also, pardon my disappearance the past week or so! I've been incredibly busy with my friend's wedding and then a conference and the constant travel and networking and planning has run me ragged.

    The wedding went well, the conference was fun, and I was incredibly happy to get back to sleeping in my own bed last night. Looking forward to getting back on top of things today and decompressing from the stressors.

    ~~ STEPS CHALLENGE RESULTS ~~

    Team Statistics - Week Three
    Steppers: 7 (-1)
    Total Steps: 493,492 (+12.58% from last week)
    Average Steps Per Stepper: 70,499

    The Leaderboard -

    @OllieAndEd2021 - 94,436 total | 13,491 average - Most Steps in One Day!!!
    @GarysGirl78 - 89,639 total | 12,804 average- Most Consistent!!!
    @JessicaVRosati - 80,124 total | 11,446 average
    @addy0427 - 66,441 total | 9,492 average

    @BodyTalking - 53,459 total | 7,636 average
    @melaniedscott - 51,940 total | 7,420 average

    All of our bolded steppers set a goal and met it, based on their average steps per day! More than half of us really stepped UP! Even down a walker, we were only 4K below last week!

    We are less than 500k below two million steps for the month....I'm wondering if we can break 2 million! I'm so proud of our step team!

    Sorry I'm so late in getting this up...I was holding out a bit for stragglers and have been insanely busy at work.

    Having a bad week, my dog went in to have some teeth removed but they had to stop her surgery. Her heart rate kept dropping and they found a large cancereous tumor wrapping around the back of her tounge. They say she has a few weeks left. That will be a horrible day. I also went to my rheumatologist who was peeking at my mri on my back and said the surgeon is going to tell me I am going to need surgery. She said to get the surgery on my back and then I better have surgery on both my feet that I have been putting off. She said my heels and toes are so swollen. I am still waiting on getting a new watch because I am having a hard time walking anyway. It's painful. I am going to the fair today so that's going to be interesting. I might have to sit in my grandkids carriage. But at least it's exercise. I do get a little walking in because I hate being lazy so I push through the pain and walk at a pace I can do. I have been eating pretty good though, who knows about today though.

    I just saw this message, I was pretty sure it posted every day. Sorry about that I would like to know how to get direct to the community messages for next month. It’s hard to keep track.

    QUESTION:

    I have a wedding to go to in 3 weeks. Do you think that if I work really hard at eating lots of veggies, some fruit, some good proteins and a bit of fiber and a lot of water, that I can lose 9 to 10 pounds by then?

    Wedding is October 21st.

    This will include some strength training sessions and most days with 10,000 steps as well.

    Reason I’m asking is because 10 pounds is usually about one clothing size.
