    Tuesday check in
    Calories: under
    Exercise:55 minute walk
    Water: success
    Steps: 3/24 9,264

    I didn’t do my YouTube video again but I promise today I will do it. I am excited that I will “see” my granddaughters today. When I go for my walk, the kids and their Mom are going to meet me half way. No hugs or kisses but I will see them. We will then turn around and go home.

    Today’s goals
    1. Get that video done
    2. Walk 45 minutes
    3. Stay under calorie goal

    Thank you! I’m looking forward to the accountability. I was doing so quite well until this last week and stumbled BIG time and knowingly kept stuffing more and more food in my face 😜

    Just for clarity, I picked Monday as my weigh in - where / how do I do that next Monday?

    IDEA SEARCH!npinsr3yt5u7.png
    The four moderators have been running the full group challenges since the new year. We had the photo challenge this month with a different theme for each day of the week, last month we had the 29 questions of leaping groundhogs, and in January we had 20/20 vision to work on our goals.

    I think the April challenge should come from team members. I'm asking all the teams to come up with some ideas. Or revive a previous challenge we had that you liked. What would be fun, useful, and get people from all the teams participating? In the past we have had all kinds of things: points-based games (minutes of exercise, sticking to plan, etc. earning baseball runs or just points), thoughtful questions, photo challenges, daily "pile up" (check this for example), goal setting, daily fitness from darebee or other easy to use sites, recipes, etc. etc.

    Bring 'em on!

    Happy Thursday everyone! Been busy as a bee making deliveries. Been doing my in truck spin workouts. Hitting all my goals, staying under calorie but eating enough to not get sick. We'll see what it shows on Sunday!
