I apologize for not posting yesterday!3 -
@AmyRobF - no worries! Gotcha...
@terytha - I will switch you right away. I may have forgotten - so we'll share the bad, ok?? And well done on your mini-goal! You WILL make it.
@Connie7355 - hope you have a great trip! I have put you in for an EXC for next Friday, and will just record the same weight as this week. You are planning well, and we all wish you success!
@cory17 - do not panic, even if you did not have a great week for weight loss. Keep on keeping on!

Oh, I want to mention that tonight is our 8th anniversary dinner! I do not feel like I've been married 8 years. And we've been together for 14 years, sheesh.
We're going to a Japanese BBQ where I plan to eat until I get meat sweats. So possibly my next weigh in will not be as good. =P
But that's OK.6 -
Is anyone interested in joining a challenge with the Workout Warriors? Just the two teams, head to head WOW vs WAW.
The moderators have been challenging each other for a couple of weeks now using a simple points system. It's easy, fun, and kicks our butts. @Navydaddjtc decided to run it as an internal challenge for his team, and I thought it might interest our team too.
Every day you get points for five things:- FOOD - sticking to your food plan (30 points - divided into 3 meals of 10, or meals plus snack at 6 points each)
- EXERCISE - 15 points per 30 minutes of intentional, hopefully intense exercise
- WATER - drinking up the amount of water you set yourself (10 points)
- GOOD HABIT - choose a habit you want to develop. Give yourself 10 points for each day you do it.
- BAD HABIT - choose a habit you want to LOSE. Give yourself 10 points for each day you DON'T do it.
That's it - let me know if you are interested in trying this for a week, and maybe longer if we like it. It just means everyone who plays reports their points each day.
If all that reporting is not your idea of fun, we'll skip it!
You know I’m in!2 -

It's all about balance!
Happy anniversary (I know it goes so fast - 30 for me this year and that doesn't feel possible), and enjoy your meal! 2 -

Cool!! Send me your email address, and I'll invite you to be able to use the spreadsheet. It's easy to do, and you can also fill in your habits and goals, and update as you go. If you'd rather I kept the score for you, let me know!0 -

Not gonna lie. I've had a completely crappy week. Emotionally, physically, mentally. I'm drained. I didn't even get on the scale today because I was afraid it would make me spiral and give up completely. Sorry team. Not sure what you do with a no weigh in. I've got to get my head back in the game. Blah!5 -

So sorry for the delay. It's been a very busy weekend for me. It's 4:12 am as I'm typing this, and I've been up all night writing a novel excerpt for a church project coming up next month. I'm so excited! Anyway, here are my steps for the week:

WEIGH-IN:
User = @evangsimmons170
Week = 1
Weigh-in Day = Saturday (6/8/19)
Previous Weight = 339
Current Weight = 349.6
No, that is not a daggone typo!!! I've been doing strength training several days this week, plus I've got major fluid retention going on yet again. I forgot to take my BP meds Friday; then I realized yesterday that I left them at work, so I didn't get them until late yesterday afternoon. (Two of my meds are diuretics.) And I've been drinking lots of water to get this fluid moving but uggggg....who in the world gains 11 pounds in 1 week? Sad thing about it is this has happened before. Sigh.5 -

Me! A couple weeks ago I gained 10 lbs and I still haven’t lost them. Not even half way there!! Don’t worry it will come off even if it’s slowly.1 -

Have a wonderful trip Connie. You’ve got this.1
