    @mari_moulin - wishing you a speedy recovery

    @lindamtuck2018 - I can’t function before coffee either. Great job!

    @Megan_smartiepants1970 - I’m so glad you are pain free. Thank you for stepping up and co-leading our team.

    @Tazaria87 - way to stick to your step goal!

    @onward1 - stacking wood is definitely a work out. It must feel good to get all of that accomplished

    @28Haveitall2020 - nice loss!

    If you see an insightful marked on your weigh in post, I do that so I know I have entered it into the spreadsheet.

    I have actually been wondering who was doing that lol

    Check-in for Monday 8/31

    Calories: under
    Water: 113oz
    Exercise: 5.6 mile trail ride (bike)
    Steps: 3790 (below goal but the bike ride was more than enough exercise)

    I weigh everyday and I am seeing the scale creep up despite staying on track. I know there are lots of variables and it will settle back down. I just hate seeing it go in the wrong direction. I just hope it rights itself by weigh-in day.

    Weigh in Day is Monday

    Treadmill 1 mile --- Yes x 2 miles
    Water (60 oz) -- 72 ounces [note I did decide to change this from 128, I will drown if I drink that much.. haha]
    Workout 3x week -- Tues Sept 1-yes
    2000 steps -- 8025 steps today
    Logged all food/drink -- yes

    Question on "steps"... do you count treadmill workouts in steps? I did today, but wondering if that is the "normal" thing to do. Example:
    Total Steps today 8025
    Treadmill AM was 2641 steps
    Treadmill PM was 2648 steps
    Leaving a remainder of steps from other activities today at 2736 steps
    So are my steps 8025 or should they be 2736?

    I personally would count the 8025

    That scale can be so frustrating. I was up almost 4 pounds this morning. I suspect with me sodium is partly the reason. Stay on track and it will go down.

    I agree with Megan, count the 8025. It is the total steps for the day.

    Question regarding your steps. I am not sure if I have your Sunday steps. Can you confirm them for me?

    @lindamtuck2018 - I suspect sodium is my reason as well. I checked the label and the carne asada seasoning that I have been using for days on my grilled chicken breast is LOADED with sodium. No wonder it tastes so damn good.
