keep in mind that when you suddenly do more exercise than your body is used to ... the muscles hold water for a day or two in self-repair mode. And you ran RIOT yesterday! ... so although it won't be your official weigh in day ... I bet you will see a significant drop before the Week 1 weigh in next week - and your May Stats will start strong.2 -

uuummmmmm @jugar, could you or one of the other moderators check the formula in my row of the "monthly total change" column on the spreadsheet? It is saying that there is less than half a pound LEFT of me (over 99% starting weight lost)
I know my post Easter bloat is dealt with (see above), but not THAT dealt with!0 -

Fitness Friday's and I have a fitness doodad question ....
In case you haven't noticed ..... I started using a fitbit zip on Easter (I've been keeping that news SOOOOOOOOOOO under-cover .......
)
Two weeks have gone by, and it is looking like I average just over ~6000 steps in the course of an average workday. (no "active minute stretches to speak of .... and this is BEFORE my "intentional activity workouts" on the mini-trampoline or bike.
Should I change my MFP Profile setting from "sedentary" to "lightly active" (or whatever 1 notch up is called)? I log my exercise, and now that I am settling into maintenance, I am trying to eat most of them back. (raising my Intake calorie goal gradually)0 -

Not a good way to start May. Went out for sushi last night. I think the soy sauce is causing major water retention. Hope to see a good drop this week.

HAHAHA! If it were 99% you would be right - but it is 0.99% ! Your loss was of just under 1% of your bodyweight. It's fun how each pound is a higher percentage of you as there is less of you!1 -

sodium WILL do that to you .... drink plenty of water for several days, and it will self-correct ...2 -

Spent almost a hundred this morning at PT evaluation to find out what is causing the pain in my upper leg/lower back (ok, it’s really a pain in my *kitten*) thanks to my incredibly crappy yet extremely expensive health insurance. I may go back. Or I may not. (I’m blessed in that I can afford it but really just don’t want to) I feel confident that the PT’s diagnosis is correct (same as my docs) and I’m researching the causes, cures, do’s and don’t’s, and looking forward to being painfree once again.
In the meantime, when is this crazy baseball game going to end?! I can’t keep up with the posts let alone the level of activity you beasts are accomplishing lol
Maybe I’m jealous or maybe I should find another challenge group. Don’t know, but I’ll probably hang in here another month.
Happy Friday all! Let’s finish the week super strong and sassy!

Don't worry! Tomorrow is the last day of the crazy baseball game. It would be fun if there was an easier way to collect scores, but it has been great to see how committed everyone has been. Our team has been far and away the TOP all the way through. Beasts indeed!
So don't leave us for another challenge just yet - and if you have some ideas on how we could make this one more fun and effective, let us know!

The WaistAways May Chatroom is now up and running!
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10741463/waistaways-team-chat-may-2019#latest
So head on over (especially if you have already reported in for this week) and start setting the tone / making suggestions for how you want next month's thread to evolve .... posting memes be they silly or inspiring ....
As @jugar just assured @karenesg .... the BB updates taking are about to phase out. It's been fun and amazing, but time for something new.
What topics, daily themes, types of "just between us" byplay would help you / support you / nudge you the most? Put it in the top of the new thread!
Do people want the internal step-counting "how far did we travel this week?" thing (WITHOUT the rest of the BB additional workout time / runs earned business) to keep going?
