    @Learningmoments I am trying to figure out how to add your floors ... on my conversion chart I have stair climbing , moderate... stair climbing slow or stair climbing vigorous ... I would need to know if it was moderate, slow or vigorous and for how long you did it in order for me to convert it ...Thanks

    @Slimmersixties Thank you for the article and the idea for averaging. That would give a more realistic value and a lot less stress. I can definitely tell my hard workout days. The next day, my weight usually goes up. I usually try to have a lower-intensity workout the day before. I appreciate your help.

    Do you use an app like happy scale for recording your weights?

    I have an android. Happy scale doesn't show up. Sounds like a fun app.

    Don't worry about converting them to steps. I just want to keep track of how many I do. Climbing stairs is something I want to do when I am old, so I thought this was a good place to keep track. Thank you so much for the offer. I appreciate this challenge.

    Lost 0.6 lbs. I’m sorry for weighing in late! I stepped on the scale on Friday morning only to have our batteries die and had to go to the store to get some more and it’s certainly been a busy weekend lol. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!

    Awesome work!!

    Steps: 4,748
    Swim: 3/3
    Mini Walk: 2/2

    Another week of reaching my exercise goal but gaining weight. I am going to the pool soon.

    @Slimmersixties
    Please use 173.6 as my Christmas challenge weight. I am going to lose 11 pounds which will bring me to 100 pounds lost. I will need to adjust my calories for the week so I can lose .75 pounds a week. I can and will do this.

    We will both have lost 100lb by Christmas! Ill be at goal. Will that be goal for you too?

    I am still not sure. I have my diabetic check in 3 weeks. I am going to ask the doctor then what she thinks. I am really hating the loose skin that goes with the weight loss. Do you find that you have much loose skin?

    I'm back guys. Having the month of August off gave me some time to rest and get myself in a better position to have a great September. This is Michigan's last real decent month as far as weather goes so I am hoping to get many steps and a lose a few lbs while the weather is still in the 70's.

    Can I change my weigh in day to Friday?

    Tons of loose skin :( particularly bad around my neck, which i really hate, and the tops of my legs which aren't so much of a problem as i hide them! But i just ask myself did those areas look any better when they were filled with fat!!!
