On a more serious note .... (saved FB post someone shared)
We are all here both because we need a stick - and to hand out sticks to each other.

Welcome @SueSueDio! Good to have you here.
I like your sticking to it strategy @Terytha! The ONLY time lying to yourself is allowed

I mean, is it really a lie if you know it's a lie? XD1 -
@BMcC9 Thank you for the link, that was an interesting read. I'll try to give some thought to those points. (I didn't receive a PM, by the way, but there's a bug where sometimes they don't come through if the sender isn't on your friends list. I got all the info from the thread so it's not a problem.)
@Terytha I've done things like that before, too - "just one more day!", or "just for today". I need to try that again!

HEY! You guys made me both laugh and almost cry.
@Terytha - you crack me up! It isn't a lie if you know it is a lie. That is brilliant.
And @BMcC9 - that poster from the therapist. I never saw that one before, but it is beautiful. Thanks. For the stick.

I wonder if its possible to change my mind and switch my weigh in day to Saturday before June starts up?
In other news. Work is doing a training meeting on new software. They're bribing us with free cake and ice cream. -_-
I can't have cake yet. It's a huge trigger food for me. It sounds like torture. Maybe I can hide.2 -

You are now a Saturday weigh-in person! It would be good to have your first one on June 1st, even though we don't officially start the June challenge until the 2nd. That way you have the most recent start point to go from.
I feel for you with your party. Ice cream is my biggest trigger, and cake is probably right up there too, as long as it isn't chocolate. My family thinks that my dislike of chocolate must be a genetic flaw of some kind... I would hide from that cake for sure! Bring a bowl full of juicy orange sections? Suddenly have a case of the stomach flu? Tough one, but you'll make it through even if you eat it. Just leave room for plenty of extra calories and have a really light day the day after. Or keep your halo on and don't touch the stuff.

The June sign up is for new people to get assigned to a team, so you don't post there. People who are already signing up for June are assigned to a team, and then put on our "support" list for now. They can post in the chat (here) and will join the official weigh-ins and all on June 2nd, when we all will shift over to a new chat thread just for this team. So keep up in here - we are happy to hear from you any time!2 -

Let’s go Friday group!! Hoping for great numbers for all of you. I second @Blackbeautysue and thank this wonderful team for all your support and encouragement. I really love this team. ❤️ Go team go!1 -
Oh, and after watching my sweet granddaughter for 11 hours today, hubby and I went out and played tennis for :45 minutes. First time in a long time and it felt so great. My scale is not where I want it yet, but often Saturday is my low day. Come on Onederland.6

One more. I promise it will be my last post today.
Small victory NSV - The other day I was taking a walk and my shadow had a WAIST!!!! 😂😂😂😊😊😊9 -
Hey all, I'm gonna weigh tomorrow and then bow out for the remainder of May and maybe June. I leave for Japan this Saturday, May 25 (work related) and I won't be back until Mid June. Not sure how posting would work or if I will even have access to a scale.
Please don't count me out. I'll need this group more than ever when I get back in town. It's just that I won't be helping the team while I'm gone and that's not fair to them. I'll see you all in July.

Enjoy Japan @leni1us, such a beautiful place. I was lucky to visit there 4 years ago. There is healthy food to be found! Lots of veggies, tofu. A funny story.. I went to a corner store to buy what looked like bread. When I came home I found the centre was filled with custard. Heavenly..5

So excited to be in the 180’s!!! It’s been over 2 years since I’ve been this low!!8 -
@leni1us, Japan is a country made of stairs. If you're taking public transit at all, you will get your steps in plus a billion stairs. That place was, for me, the exception to the rule about not outrunning your fork. I ate nothing but bread, sushi and fried foods and drank gallons of Ramune (a kind of lemon sugar soda I adore) and was clearly thinner when we got back.
Have fun and don't worry about the scale.3 -
Shadows with waists! This is what we're all aiming for. YES @micki48 - you will hit onederland, and that waist will be waisting away (oh dear, give me more coffee...). And tennis sure burns the calories. Keep it up!
@leni1us - I will move you to the support team. You can stay there as long as you want. You can weigh in any time, or just skip it until you're home and back to a routine. But you can chat with us here any time! I'm sure everyone loves travel news, photos, crazy food stories (custard inside a thing that looked like bread sounds pretty good @Andreabroadley ), and how much you're walking and feeling great. Japan is wonderful.
@jlbtnc down another pound. You are the example of "steady steady keep on going" we all need. WTG
@connie7355 - the 180's for the first time in 2 years? Wow. In Québec French we say you can now "se peter les bretelles" - snap your suspenders - because you are so proud.
I don't usually post my weigh-ins in the chat thread, but today I get to snap my suspenders too. I am into the teens for the first time in ages. 118.2. My goal is 115, could be 110 but I'll be happy to get to 115. I'm really small, so that is plenty. I have been hovering in the 120s for a long time, which is great compared to where I was 7 years ago, but it feels amazing to be really strong, have some muscle definition, and closing in on goal weight at 65 years old. Don't give up!
Can't wait to see the rest of the Fridays! Hope you have a great start to the weekend.5 -
Not sure what days I had posted for steps so figured this was easier!
