Last night I ended up binging so my weight is up this morning. I am sad to see my weight go over 200 again and finish the month with a gain. The good news is a new month is beginning. I am going to get focused on the prize and have a better month.
My walk is done this morning. I sucked up the shoulder pain and got it done. I should have went and done my walk outside as it was a little cooler this morning. I was just lazy and didn’t want to leave the apartment. Once It cools off again, I am going to start doing my longer walks. I want to see if I can get to an 8 km walk before the snow and ice start.
Happy FriYAY!

2. Walk 10,000 steps
3. Stay within calorie goal

Steps: My Fitbit broke so I have not a clue!
I’m officially at the beach and will take a break from logging and checking in for the month of august - not strictly but I need my mind to rest, I’ve completely messed up my July because of the pressure I put myself under. Focus will be on NSVs such as drinking water, moving, sleeping better - baby steps right?

UGH! I have Sjogren's too - I'm sorry for you! Did your plaquenil increase in price during the pandemic? I refilled for 3 months on 3/17 and it was $30, then just got it again in July and it was $49.lindamtuck2018 wrote: »I have rheumatoid arthritis and sjogrens. Sjogrens is an autoimmune disorder also. I do take Celebrex and I take plaquniel. I take another also but my meds are in the kitchen so I am too lazy to get out of bed and look. This is my shoulders is more a mechanical malfunction than my arthritis or sjogrens causing the problems. Maybe the PT will help this time. My daughter said I should try acupuncture and see if that helps. Maybe she can put me on a different anti inflammatory.
My sister swears by acupuncture... I'm not ever giving up my medications but I'm always interested in how natural remedies work for people too. Good luck with it!

I think you are the first person I have talked that has sjogrens. It sure does suck. I truthfully don’t know if it increased in price. My insurance plan covers 80% and the drugstore doesn’t make me pay the copayment. I am very lucky that way.1 -

Mari_moulin was just curious if Greg was still part of the group or he changed groups ?
Thanks
No he is no longer in this particular group. He left a few months back as he wanted to try something new with a few of his teammates. I’m hoping one day he decides to join us again ❤️
Oh ok. Thanks for your response.1 -
Got ideas for full group challenges? Have any suggestions about how to make F2F better? Head on over to the Idea Lounge, and sound off
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10802654/the-idea-lounge#latest
It is time to dream up more challenges for the next month - what will help you stick to your goals? It is a blast to meet people from the other teams, and all get together on a particular challenge. It can relate to food, water, exercise - whatever you like! We have quite a good collection going, but it is always fun to add more.5 -
