    @purple1butterfly - Not a problem, you are officially excused for next week. Have a lovely vacation!!! Are you planning anything fun? (also, I am assuming you meant 77.1kg - let me know if your typo is anything other than the wrong first digit)

    @busoxnardmg - Happy Monday! This week is going to be insane for me, I'm wishing a smooth one for all of you!

    Ugh I hate how this never seems to copy right. I am curious to see how my steps will look the rest of the week. I go back to work with the schools and I will be an aide this year instead of a Secretary.

    Song that I find very addictive is German song from Eurovision this year, Tina and About : Baller. It's so simple song but instant healer when you play it loud

    Weigh in day: Monday (Actually Tuesday this week! Sorry again!)

    CW: 271.6 lbs
    PW: 269.6 lbs

    I don't know what happened there, I feel like I ate fairly reasonably, but I gained. Possibly inflammation from my workout yesterday, extra water weight? My plantar fasciitis/ankle tendonitis has been flaring up so I think I'm less active. I'm not super concerned about it at this point, gonna keep on going.

    Steps: Week of Aug 10-16

    Question of the Week: What song always gets you pumped up and feeling ready to move?

    @minstrelofsarcasm Anything with a good hard beat. I like a lot of different music so it's hard to just pick one. Lately "Disease" by Lady Gaga, "Kickstart My Heart" by Mötley Crüe is always a good one, and "Here It Goes Again" by OK Go.

    Okay I think I’ve actually found my grooove. Calorie deficit is the way to go… I may have been eating at maintanance calories before for my body type?

    I thought for sure I gained weight because my doc put me on new meds that have a little bit of a reputation for weight gain- I was super hungry. It’s a few days course though. I tried to stick to my calorie budget for the most part, ate more salads this week and did 1 intense workout and 1 super slow workout but didn’t workout as much this time d/t shark week🙄🫣

    As always, let me know if you need a break, want to take the week off, or want to change your weigh-day! Tools are only useful if you use them the way that works best for you, so if there's a way we can make MFP, F2F, and Team Weight No More work better for you, let us know!

    has anyone else been getting a large number of friend requests lately. I have gotten a lot of male friend requests and it shows they are brand new to mfp. Normally it wouldn’t bother me but I have had this happen before with mfp and my account was hacked. I am tempted to just closing the account.

    @minstrelofsarcasm yes I am a new member. Saturday weigh-ins are perfect. I’m actually required to weigh myself every Saturday by a program I belong to. It’s called fruit street and it’s for people who are prediabetic. If your A1C and glucose levels are at a certain number, you’re accepted into the program. They send you their own scale and when you weigh yourself, your weight gets sent directly to the fruit street app. We have a zoom meeting every Saturday morning with a registered nutritionist and dietitian. You’re required to weigh yourself by Medicare, who pays for the program, before the meeting, otherwise you’ll be kicked out of the program. So far I’ve learned a lot!

    I don’t have a particular song that gets me pumped up. Pretty much anything from Metallica or Ren gets me going!

    @blessedgrandma5 You don't need to close your account. Just decline the friend requests.

    @blessedgrandma5 i have been getting tons of friend requests. Some of them will even keep resending them. I just keep denying them. I haven’t accept friends anyway since mfp changed because you can’t see anyone anymore.
