    Since Thursday, I've felt really tired and, tbh, lazy 😔

    @BodyTalking
    Thanks for asking. Struggling with lack of my regular walking/hiking due to unhealthy air due to forest fires. That seems to be increasing my appetite. Plus it’s hot which always makes me feel like eating. So far, so good...but having to “white knuckle” it quite a bit.

    I have been vacuuming & mopping a lot & generally finding things that need to be moved to another room - to get more steps!!

    I do think COVID is making many of us low grade tired. I think it’s important to things we enjoy: doodling, reading, baths, etc!
  • BodyTalking
    BodyTalking Posts: 2,819 Member
    Yes, MadisonMolly, to some extent this has been like a re-setting for me but, overall, I have just become less motivated to do much at all.

    I hope the air clears soon. It's bad enough being couped up because of Covid and, now, forest fires! Good for you, finding things to keep active 👍

    I've been having problems connecting to the internet for a few days and trying to get it sorted out is just eating up my time. The company said it was fixed but it clearly isn't. I'm using my mobile phone data at the moment.

    I forgot to weigh myself before getting dressed this morning, so I'm at 82.4 kilos (starting weight was 80 k). I'll do it before going to bed and again tomorrow morning. I presume it's best to weigh yourself in the morning 🤷

    @Hilogirl2018 we can do this!!! Baby steps.

    I read a good reminder from Beck today … Tuesday Reality Check: Losing weight may be a slow process, but quitting won't speed it up.

    @MadisonMolly2017 - your record is inspiring

    Thank you @Lilylady3k !

    "Quitting won't speed it up"- YES! This is what I need to remember when I get discouraged. I also like the reminder here that weight loss is sloooow. Patience wins, always.

    @marniee14
    You can post your starting weight & date, if you like
    Then each week, post your new weight!!

    Some include a goal weight for the 12 weeks, but that’s up to you!

    Welcome! Challenges are super fun & motivating!!
