Thank you everyone for the kind words of sympathy! Trying to get back in the swing of things and tracking today will be a good place to start. I’ve really been remiss in doing so lately.4

Sunday Question
How do you spend your Sundays? Exercise, relax, family day, etc.
I normally don't like to go anywhere on Sundays. I prefer to have a lazy day and relax, sleep in to prepare for the week ahead. I've been so tired lately that I ended up napping quite a bit yesterday. I felt a little lazy but I clearly needed the sleep and I'm feeling a lot more energized today so clearly my body new what it needed.
great job!1 -

Nice loss! I think listening to our bodies is so important. I wouldn’t say lazy but call it taking care of yourself.Hi everyone! Looking back some really amazing weight losses!!!!! Great job!!
Meghan, I'm sooo sorry to hear the news ;( Dang girl, it's just too overwhelming.
Weekly weight - I'm the girl with the salt issue. I'm on crutches at the moment. So groceries are delivered to my kitchen, and to ward off cooking the same stuff over and over, I have restaurant quality meals x2 delivered on Sundays to throw in variety. It's difficult to figure out what does or doesn't have a lot of salt in it. My weight goes up, pegs, then slowly falls again, always with salt. Fortunately the mirror doesn't lie ;D
CW - 136 (yesterday it was 138. . again, so I didn't bother to post it)
I get the salt issue. I am bloated today after a few days of too much salt. My weight is way up today. The good part is we know it will go down but sometimes it takes a few days for me. Do you find the water bloat takes long to disappear? I hope you get off the crutches soon.2 -

Had a nice trip away. My weight is way up this morning. Restaurant food in part and way too many carbs were the culprit. Also my calories have been around maintenance and my logging was not accurate for a couple of days. I wonder if the couple of alcoholic drinks had played a part. I don’t normally drink so maybe??? Oh, I won money so that was pretty awesome. I get a couple of normal days of eating and on Friday myself and my husband go away for the night. Off to the pool.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

I had a very short swim yesterday. I was delayed getting there and I had an appointment for a pedicure at 10. I was proud of myself for going even though I didn’t have much time. 15 minutes is better than nothing. Pool is closed today. If it’s open tomorrow I will get a swim in before I go away.
Have a great Thursday.

I got my "1 year anniversary" badge on MFP today.. so I guess I've been on the app officially 1 year. Crazy. I fumbled around for a few days then jumped into this group last April and it was exactly what I needed. April is comin and I will likely be around 225 down in that year. Wild.
Well, my scale blessed me with easy math again this week. Down exactly 3 lbs. Lets gooooooooooooo!
Much love yall

I almost panicked and thought today was Friday and I forgot to weigh-in. I'm off work tomorrow so today feels like Friday.
Step Challenge - Goal 8500
ST = Moderate
3/24 7,052 ST = 0
3/25 8,054 ST = 20
3/26 7,004 ST = 20
3/27 1,589 ST = 0 ~ Sick

3/30
Steps will be low again today as I recover from ever stomach "thing" that hit me Tuesday night.
@iLive2walk and @lindamtuck2018 ~ I will do the challenges with you two if you like (message me). Now @iLive2walk will walk circles around me, I'm sure! But the points are also based on closing rings and percentages. When I did it with my friend, she had a move goal of 800, mine was 600 and an exercise goal of 30 minutes and mine was 45. So to make it even, I increased my move goal to 800 and I hoped that she would follow suit and increase her exercise. She didn't....so for the last couple of days, I put mine to 30 just to try to even it out.
If we set our goals realistically for our ability then it might work. Message me if you're interested.
@Megan_smartiepants1970 ~ wishing you the best and a speedy recovery for your surgery and hopefully this is IT!!!
Welcome @Mayzi61
@Nachdeezy ~ You are amazing!! Keep it going!
