Got up with good intentions, made a health tracker spread sheet, was about to change into workout clothes and hit the gym when my eldest kiddo came to me asking to check him for strep...so now we are in the waiting room at the doctor's because he looks like he has it 🤦♀️7

Everyone can start building next week's beautiful weigh-ins by planning your daily commitments! The F2F Habit Tracker is a simple self-regulating tool we can share to track those small things that add up.
How many grams of fibre? 30 minutes of exercise? Brush your teeth 2x a day? Drink all that water? Pick anything attainable, specific, and that you know will make a difference as long as you do it. Small is good! It can also be a negative - no alcohol, no added sugar, no swearing at your boss - whatever it takes
Here you go - set it up. Use it. Change anything anytime. But stick through the month!

Good morning! So close to my goal of 125 I can taste it!! But it’s definitely been a crawl to the finish line. Will I get there? Don’t know. Does it really matter? Probably not if I’m being honest. I think at this point it’s all psychological. I’ve lost over 100 pounds, I’m the healthiest I’ve been in decades, but I have this “perfect” number in my head. So I’m going to continue on for another month or so, but if I end up staying in this range, I’m going to say “okay, I’m at goal” and keep living my life and stop worrying. Am I making a New Year’s resolution? Hahaha. Sounds like it. Anyway, wishing everyone a very happy and healthy new year!!6 -

@nancyinmo I've been so impressed that you have consistently lost since you got so close to your goal.Youve done so well !! It is definitely harder to lose when you're so close to goal.125 was my goal weight too 🙂 I got there in May 21 and have not seen it since.Ive adjusted it to 130 recently but I'm still struggling to get there.
Would love to know if you have any tips or points you've learned about your journey.
I'm sure you will be able to maintain in the New Year & continue with your good habits.
Happy New Year !3 -
My daughter illustrated my kitties for Christmas. So stinking cute!
I went and road my bicycle today and did easy-elliptical for an hour. A lot of tourists out though with trendy 'rip-your-face-off' dogs. I don't have a dog, but if I did -- I would probably have a wiener dog because they're dope and tough as nails. I ran a 10k with one once and it came in ahead of me. Wasn't my dog but we went for a run.
Today on the trail

@jessicakrall8 @Pupowl please excuse me from my weigh in this week.
Christmas has been an incredible mix of great and awful1 -
A big end of the year thank you to @jessicakrall8 and @Pupowl our moderators and team leaders extraordinaire. You both put in a lot of work to make the group cozy and .... cat friendly! haha, (Betty *meow* and Tinus *meow* right? I think I have the kitty cat names right!) enjoyed seeing everyone's animal photos all year as well as Pupowl's amazing photography. Thank you both for your hard work and dedication.
**Round of Applause**
I hope everyone has a great new year!4 -
@CasandraW I hope the awful part was just the weight gain! Because that is easy to fix, no worries. You have been excused
@Itadakimasu7 That is so kind of you to say! I love seeing pictures from everyone as well. You got the kitty names right. Your cats are very cute and I love what your daughter made. Thank you for the compliments!3 -
