Thank you everyone for the congratulations! I love this ShapeShifter group.
Thank you @PatriceFitnessPal for the link to the maintenance group, I'm going to join it!
@jessicakrall8 and @Pupowl could you put my maintenance goal between 115-130 I feel that is a realistic number for me. I will continue to weigh in weekly, except for the 2 weeks July 22- Aug 5 when I'll be camping. Thank you again, everyone

Sorry it's late, we had my mom's celebration of life this week so I've been really busy. Hopefully life can slow down now. My husband decided to do 75 hard so I think I'm going to join him, get back into my routine

I have some catching up to do on the comments. I've been dealing with major anxiety with family issues and studying. I took the Principles of Marketing CLEP test today to test out of the course as I work toward completing my BA. I PASSED!!!!!!!!
More good news, scale is down. Been doing more yoga at home and getting some jog/walks in. Lost 3 lbs over the past week which is a positive and also need to be aware of what I actually ate. I feel like I skipped meals because of my anxiety.

Today (Thursday) was a good day. I made it kind of a rest day, but I did get in a one mile walk prior to going to a concert at Berkeley's Freight and Salvage Coffeehouse.
Singer/songwriter/guitarist Chris Smither was performing, and he sang three of my favorites:
No Love Today
Origin of Species
Leave the Light On

I was back at my desk job this week and less active than my week off last week as well as snacking more. It's so tough! I really need to get back to tracking my nutrition to be more aware of what I'm eating.
Have a good weekend, all.4 -
Hello Shape Shifters! I haven't been around here much, sorry about that. Last weekend I had to do a lot of cleaning to get ready for my mom's visit. On Sunday my dad came to pick me up, then we got some shopping, drove to his home and then I drove back home alone so I had the car. On Monday morning I went for a walk on my own before my mom showed up and then in the afternoon went for a second walk with my mom. Since we had the car, we could go to some new spots a little further from my home which was nice. I ended up with 26k steps on Monday, oof!
Tuesday morning we planned to start at a teahouse in the forest. When we arrived there, I realised I forgot my bug spray. We decided not to go back home for it. Literally 15 steps later, my mom said "oh, this is much worse, I forgot my camera!". So we ended up going back home after all. It was 15 minutes driving, so not the worst, but it was a little annoying. It got pretty hot that day as well so being able to walk an hour earlier would have been very welcome! After our walk we made a quick stop at the grocery store to prepare for Wednesday. I was starting to feel pretty sick at this point, but I still had a doctors appointment at 14:40 and I had to pick up medication for Tinus as well. When I got home from that, I went to bed for a while because I was getting a migraine. Thankfully the nap helped. My mom went for another walk alone in the evening; I had no energy and didn't want to risk my headache coming back. It was also disgustingly humid and we got a lot of rain at thunder at night which made sleeping a little challenging.
Wednesday morning our alarms went off at 5:20. We had reserved a bird photography hut and had a 45 minute drive first. After packing all our snacks and water, we headed out and we arrived at the hut around 6:50. We were here before for my birthday in 2022 and I recently read that the guy running it was going to make a carreer switch so this was the last chance we had to go here since he stops running it after summer. We stayed there taking pictures until 13:15 and then went home again. We didn't really see anything special sadly, but we still had a good time. As you can imagine, sitting in the hut most of the day and then the car, our steps were really bad. I think I had less than 5k when we got home. So in the evening we went for a short walk in the forest and after that we played a lot of Rummikub until it was time for bed.
On Thursday morning we had to get the car back to my dad, so another 1h 15m drive for me. We walked around a bit at the eco village and my dad showed us the stuff they were working on. They also had a huge plum tree that gave them so much fruit they couldn't eat them fast enough so we all ate some. They were small yellow ones and they were very tasty. Usually my dad drives us back home and then my mom's partner will pick my mom up at my place, which means my dad has to drive 2.5 hours. This time my mom's partner picked us up at the eco village so my dad didn't have to go anywhere which was nice for him. It was a sunny morning and we walked in the open a lot so I didn't feel very good. I had pills with me that I took at my dad's place, but they didn't really help much. It was a miserable ride home with a bad headache and naussea. Once I was home alone again, it got a little better thankfully and the rest of my day was pretty lazy. Because we walked around the eco village, my steps were alright so I didn't have to do much to hit my goal.
Today started lazy as well. I was up late after sleeping 9.5 hours and then it rained all day. I decided to start a walk at home workout until I hit my 12k steps which was after 60 minutes (I had 5k when I started or something) of this video. It was a huge sweatfest, but it felt pretty quick and it is more fun than just mindlessly stepping in the livingroom. I figured I would write this post while drying up, so I am gonna hop in the shower now! Pictures under the spoiler. Have a good day everyone
Mondays walk
Tuesdays walk

Here is a card again!We all experience fear. It is a natural human emotion. We are good at coming up with the "what-if" scenarios that scare us and stop us reaching our full potential. But it is never too late to step out of your comfort zone and fight fear. By acknowledging and accepting the risk of failure every time you pursue your goals and dreams, the power of fear dissipates. Once you change your perspective, you'll be amazed at what you can achieve.

Jeezus I need to get my act together. My husband started 75 hard, this is the first time he has actually worked out, lol, but it's motivating me a bit. I have worked out 4 of the last 5 days so hopefully this gain is just muscle swelling.5 -
