I AM SO IMPRESSED!!! You all are on fire. So many good losses reported today!
I have been avoiding being inside on line today - it is super warm and gorgeous out. It sure feels good after a week of near freezing temperatures and several nights of frost. The colours are at their peak too. This is the view while I am doing dishes.
Wow! What a beautiful view! I might fight for the right to do dishes over that view! What a wonderfully peaceful scene.1 -
@SMcFall0215 I am so sorry to hear about your terrible day and getting T-boned. So scary, but glad to hear everyone is ok. I had someone rear end me right after I moved to North Carolina, so I understand that pain. Good luck with repairs and glad you are in a better place today. Good luck with the job as well.1

Happy Sunday Ladies! I have recorded all the steps that have been posted. There are a lot of blanks in our spreadsheet. Please get those steps in asap. Here's the rundown:
The whole week's steps from:
@FatSlayer1016
@evangsimmons170
@SMcFall0215
@BaileyCat88
@theweeonemfp
@ells_runs Tues-Sat
@Gidgitgoescrazy Mon-Sat
@Kali225 Just Saturday
@evelynladams527 I'm assuming you are taking a break being on support.
I need to get some exercise done as I went to PT the other day for my knee and have yet to do my exercises. So this week, I will do better. I have more time because I won't be watching my granddaughter every day due to her momma being in quarantine. Today, I am going to focus on the present. Not the future. I think that's a good goal. I also want to post another loss this week, so I need to really be focused.
Hope everyone has a great Sunday and I agree, I'm so glad to have this group as a sounding board on this journey to health.

@jugar Will we be automatically rolled over to October challenge from here? I would like to carry on
Congratulations to everyone on your awesome losses - Waist Aways are having a good couple of weeks!
Yes indeed! You do not have to do a thing and you are part of the October team. We are so happy for you to continue - you have jumped right in and already lost over 5 pounds
Not only that, you are posting and participating - that makes all the difference and makes the group so much more enjoyable. The stats are dull, the stories and support are fantastic! 2 -
The Green Challenge Percentage of people who lost weight this week. No matter how small the loss the weights are recorded in green. Remember that even if your team doesn’t rank the highest in weight loss for the week you can still be the Green Percentage winner by having the most losses in your team! So keep it up!!

hello all! I'm always so sorry when Sunday ends. I've left projects half finished all over the place but eventually I'll get to them. Had a shock this morning when I saw the just-recently-pumped septic system (100yr old cesspool basically) had puddling around it - I thought omg, of all the things to have to deal with right now, getting a new system installed is NOT on the list, eventually it will be, but not NOW, could the ancient stone 'well' have collapse in on itself? after half an hour of fretting over it, I went upstairs to get dressed and could hear the upstairs toilet running- some tube had come loose- HALLELUJAH! The septic system can wait for another year as that was causing the problem.
Spotted a praying mantis in between windows & also 4 black swallowtail caterpillars on my parsley (they can have it they're so pretty), did a bit of gardening for pay, and have made pretty good food choices today - having that huge yummy salad prepped and waiting for me in the fridge was helpful - I must do that for the next few days when going to the office. I tried some intermittent running on an evening walk last week - it wasn't SO awful, so will maybe try to get that going this fall, winter. I aim to have every October week in the green - I've been flipflopping so much with the same few pounds these past months.3 -

@eggfreak septic tank issues are no joke! Friday morning I woke up to my father in law in my yard digging up our septic tank 😳 We live on the same property and if you have ever seen the show Everyone Loves Raymond, we have a lot of moments like that. Long story short, he got a letter that was just trying to get people to check their tanks and pump them (we just pumped ours a month ago). Well, it took 4 hours to talk him out of his panic and get him out of our yard! Ha Poor guy kept trying to measure the level but couldn't get a reading...yeah...it's empty 💩
Because of all the morning craziness, we were late getting our errands done. Then at lunch my hubby and I split a frozen pizza. We ate the whole thing 😬. Then the kids had a sleepover at grandma's and we had more rich food. My tummy is still not happy with me today 😞 I have not indulged like that since forever.
Exercised and ate better Saturday and Sunday. Meal prepped today for lunches this week. Should of done more laundry but it was beautiful today.5 -
I met up with a friend for a long walk and catching up this afternoon. A bit chilly but we still enjoyed it. Also found a recipe for pumpkin chai latte that uses up some of my pumpkin puree. It was delicious and helped with the chill. 3

@CanadianGiraffe Mmmmm pumpkin chai latte! Tis the season!
My fiance has been going on about pumpkin pie so I guess we will have to make/ buy one at some point haha.
It's getting significantly colder here now and I am very glad it's Autumn (or Fall for you American peeps!) Lots of pretty colours are appearing which is inspiring my art work! It is my favourite time of year.
This weekend I went swimming and really enjoyed it. The pool was fairly busy but they had all the Covid procedures in place so it felt safe. I will probably go again, especially now I have a new fitbit which can track my swimming!
Other than that I didn't get much exercise over the weekend but I have my next gym visit booked in today after work. I'm feeling pretty good, although I think my period is about to start so I'm not expecting amazing results (I always seem to maintain or gain during TOM!)
Have a great day everyone!1 -

Thank you all for the kind words about my weight loss. It is continuing to go so I really think it was breastfeeding that stopped me from losing before.
Two kids woke up three times last night. I turned off my alarm. It is 6am and the baby is still asleep! I totally could have gotten in a qorkout. Today, I really needed that extra hour of sleep, but that gives me hope for tomorrow! Saturdays workout left me so sore, I only walked yesterday. My calories were a little higher this weekend and my macros were way off. I am prepped to have a successful week. I will need to plan more next weekend.4
