We're leaving for the Cotton Bowl game (Ohio State vs. Mizzou) and won't be back until Sunday and I won't be able to weigh-in for the next 4 days so I'll be skipping this coming Friday and will resume on Friday, Jan 5th. Thanks.
Linda can excuse you while you are away Have fun 0 -

Steps: 6,243
Rings:✔️

No jackpots but I did win $100. As you can see from my steps I did not take it easy yesterday. I am going for blood work and when I get home I am not moving out of my chair. My husband is off this week and it seems like it is the weekend everyday. So I blame him for my lack of exercise. 😂
Have a super day!2 -

I went to the gym yesterday and immediately felt better and was more productive when I got home. I think moving my butt really helped. I still have some residual sugar cravings, but overall I'm feeling good.1 -

With family here I have still managed to stick to my diet. I have also stayed under my set calorie count each day, though I have been eating more than I'm used to. Despite this, I managed to drop .8 lb over the week so I am beyond thrilled. One last crushed decade in 2023. 💜 much love yall.3 -

Hi everyone! I’m excited to be joining the team! I need the motivation and hope to be a motivator for others as well. I am a recently retired nurse and I started my weight loss journey in January of this year. I managed to lose 34.3 pounds so far. I know that I need to incorporate activity more and I struggle to do that. I’m hoping this will help!

That is a good way to describe how I felt this week but for me it’s just junk food in general. Now to get my butt exercising again.SW - 630

Slightly below maintenance range
I expected a gain after losing for a couple of weeks due to the nausea. I am still bloated from all the junk I ate over the holidays. I haven’t been doing any intentional exercise but that ends today. I am getting some mini walks done today. One more walk and my 15 minutes are done. I am hoping to get a half hour total before I go grocery shopping.
Have a great last Friday of 2023!
