    July Goal - Below 200, ideally 197 would be great

    March- Beginning weight 212
    End of June weight -200.8


    July 1-200.5- rest day
    July 2-198.7 40 mins cardio, upper body strength
    July 3 -198.6
    July 4=199.3
    July 5- DNW - 12 hrs of car travel for a quick but long trip trip to hubby's home town
    July 6- DNW but walked 2.25 miles
    July 7- DNW 12 hrs car travel to get home again

    July 11-198.6

    high 90's again today.
    @ManifestingToday - I started with the weighted vest about 2 months ago maybe and try to use it 1-2 times per week for either my treadmill (with incline and slow pace) or eliptical. I may have been overly optimistic when I purchased it because I bought a 25# vest. It was alot to carry and took a long time to get to 20 minutes of walking with it but I really do love it. It burns alot more calories and helps build strength while doing low impact workouts. Given my knee I can't do impact anymore.

    @SofaKween - the 297 is definitely NOT my weight goal! thanks for noticing .its corrected

    Weights yesterday was really tough. When I got there I was told we’d be doing bench press which I was relieved to hear as its probably the most simple of the three disciplines to learn. The reality was quite different – even the timing of the breath was challenging. No idea whether I enjoyed it or not – I am still so tired!

    Heaviest Weight: 221 | Ultimate Goal Weight: 165
    July Goal: Just get back on track. Get to 209 or below if possible.

    July 8: 214.4
    July 9: 214.7
    July 10: 214.2
    July 11: 213.7
    July 12: 213.8
    July 13: 212.7

    I've been mostly consistent using the food diary. Yesterday I did a mile on the treadmill, an then biked on my stationary bike for 15 minutes. I thought I did great (no pain while biking), but went to climb the stairs and started with knee pain again. So it looks like biking is out for now. It's mostly better this morning, but what a freaking bummer. The bike is relatively new. My husband dislikes it, and now I'm not using it.
    Question…. How do you @ someone?
    So if you want to "@" someone in this thread, you type @, and then the screenname, all as one word -- usually, the platform will auto-complete the screenname as you're typing it (a big blue box). Then you just press enter. When you submit your post, it should have the @ and the screenname in blue, like a link, in your post.

    If you're looking to send a message to someone, it's a little more complicated. You first click on their screenname which takes you to an Overview page of that person and their posts. Then you click on the button that says "MyFitnessPal Profile" -- I think if they allow messages, you will see an option to send a message, or add as a friend. But there also might be controls that one has used that keeps their profile private. I have to be honest, I don't add friends or message -- most of what I do on the platform is in a thread like this one. Others might know more/better info than me. :smile:

    I hope everyone has a great Saturday. 🌞

    Had some late night pizza and wine as a treat so that explains the scales. I did it with intent and it was fun, but today I’m doing everything I can to bring it back down again.

    Being part of this group is really helping me and I’m grateful to you all for your posts

    Tonight if the weather holds am going to a BBQ where there will be plenty of wine flowing, but it should be a lot of fun and I will accept the fate of the scales with grace tomorrow.
