    @jessicakrall8 - ignore this - it may be Friday in the real world, but I thought it was Monday again. The good news is that I don't have to be bummed about only losing .7 lbs this week. (It's been a tough few days.)

    @Jax_Grim I'm hoping they'll extend mine...as it stands right now, we're being told Jun 15th, but numbers are still rising in Virginia and after last weekends stupidity by people at local beaches, I look for the crap to hit the fans around Jun 10th. It's too soon, science says it's too soon and people will suffer...just amazingly sad that people can't use common sense. I feel ya though...be safe Jax!

    @Jax_Grim I'm with you on that. Apparently we're not going back to the office until September. ☹

    Steps
    5/24 = 3,408
    5/25 = 2,504
    5/26 = 6,165
    5/27 = 1,757
    5/28 = 9,973

    The offical stay home order lifted, curfew now in place due to riots and looting in Minneapolis and St. Paul. We had to leave work early yesterday and barricade the store as best as possible because of the threats and the store will close early all weekend. No trouble yet in my area luckily, fingers crossed my parents neighborhood stays safe.

    @jessicakrall8 I know what you mean. I live in Georgia and the beaches have stayed open through most of this. My biggest problem is everyone is stuck in this house. We have 7 people and 4 dogs in a small house. It makes it so hard to work somedays.

    Just wanted to say a big thanks to our leaders - @jessicakrall8 and @mulecanter . Thanks for your support and keeping me stepping.

    I was one of the few people that has done better under the stay at home orders. I ate less and exercised more. And it worked - I hit my goal today 148 pounds 😄.

    So I will not be coming back for June. It doesn’t help the team to have someone who isn’t losing and I don’t want to drag you all down.

    So I’ll say good bye and good luck - and I’ll see you all in the maintenance thread soon.

    @simbersea Actually we have a section for those who are "in maintenance" or maintaining mode...AND it really DOES help everyone be able to talk with, bounce ideas and get encouragement from someone who HAS MADE IT to the top of the mountain!!! Please stick around and chat with us for a month. You'll notice that @kmfeig87 has been around for quite a few months, sharing her maintenance thoughts/plans/ideas and it's very helpful. If your schedule doesn't allow for it, I understand, but we'd love to watch you shine for a month or so if you'd grant us that privilege...you can let us enjoy seeing you "live the life"!!! Let me know...

    CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Please count me in for June. 8000 steps. I got lazy in May and slept in instead of getting up early to walk with Leslie. Later in the day, I almost never make time or feel like walking. If I were back home I would walk after dinner, but I don't do that here. There are bears that come around and I'm scaredy cat! I've seen footage from my sister's surveillance cameras and those bears are huge!

    I'll second Jessica on asking you to stick around! We have just started the GOAL ZONE for everyone in maintenance on each team. You choose a goal zone (I usually stick with a 5 pound range - 2 pounds under to 2 pounds over your "ideal"). You weigh in every week, and if you go over the top of your range - you go back to the regular team until you're back within your zone again. In the meantime, you're still with the team, helping others, and learning how to stop losing and not gain! I have been in maintenance for a long time, and it is super helpful to stay here with the team anyhow. Hope you will stay! I'll put your name in the Goal Zone section anyhow, and if you want to stay - just post your range here, and you're golden. Congratulations!
