The app is called

"Stronglifts 5x5 - Weight Lifting & Gym Workout Log"
By Stronglifts

I find it super easy to use and track. And it calculates what you should be adding for weght each time. So far, it seems to be working pretty well for me.

@TwistedSassette - you are doing such a great job of allowing yourself small treats while still making it work. Your weight loss is steady and non scale victories like those shorts are sweet!

@eahrenee - I"m checking out that app. Thanks!

@TeresaW1020 - he's mini poodle and mystery. He's tiny like yours, brown and black. We got him from a rescue when he was 5 and he's 11 now. He came with a lot of hang ups, but overall, he's a good boy.

One of my YouTube exercise sites- HAS Fit- did a post this week. "If something is important to you, you'll find a way, if it's not, you'll find an excuse. " They moved the family 21 hours away, 2 little kids, getting unpacked etc. Still made time for to workout that week- because "sometimes it's important to focus on maintenance and not losing a healthy habit. It's easier to lose a habit than to create one." I think I'm going to write that in my journal. Good to remember when life gets busy.

{{{SKINNY VIBES TO ALL}}}}}

This week everyone back in the groove!!! Wut, wut!

My daughter’s Let’s Dance for Switch arrived yesterday and she promptly challenged me. Their definition of easy is so different then mine- 30 minutes in and I had 3 glasses of water and shed my sweater, but it was so much fun.
The dog was so confused 😁

Good Saturday morning to everyone. Continuing my slow march down the scale. Definitely the tortoise not the hare and that is just fine with me. More likely to keep it off in the long run.
Our state opened up to 45 and older for Covid vaccines and I got my first shot yesterday.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I stepped 3 different times on the scale this morning and still got the same number like last week. It’s ok given all the good food I ate at my parents house when I visited for 4 days last week. The girls and I had a great time, we tried to do trails and bike but it was too cold so we stayed inside and went shopping at the Mall of America.

@RYcare Wow! Visiting your parents for four days and not having a gain is a big celebration! I always wanted to go to Mall of America? Is it as big as I think it is?

@mlhopp93 I completely agree that slow and steady is the best way to keep the weight off and that really should be the goal for us all. That is great that you got your shot. My state opened up for 55 and older but it’s beyond hard to get on a list so I’m waiting until it gets easier.

@Katmary71 I’m wanting to get some sun on my legs too! I usually go the self-tanner route but this year, I’m going to try the natural method. I hope your pain and the weather improve.


Hi Team! Not too much going on here today. I saw a nice loss on the scale this morning and am only one small pound away from my 80 lb. mark. I swear it’s taking forever!! But it will happen. I worked on the Fat2Fit challenge since it’s my turn to do it this week. So y’all stay tuned for tomorrow. I want my team to be the biggest participators! I did a good workout and stayed true to my Keto plan.

2021 Word: TRANSFORMATION

@RYcare You went to the Mall of America in person? I've always wanted to go there!

@mlhopp93 how are you feeling after the shot? I hope you're feeling normal aside of a sore arm!

@bmotisko Contrary on breaking your stall!

WEEK FOUR CHALLENGE IS UP!

This week we want to hear your weight loss story with a series of questions that you will answer each day. So click the link and start telling us about your journey towards good health! YOUR SEVEN-DAY WEIGHT LOSS STORY

How are you feeling after the shot? I hope you're feeling normal aside of a sore arm!

@katmary71 -- no side effects from the shot. I've heard shot #2 for Pfizer is more likely to cause discomfort but still better than having covid from what friends who've dealt with it have told me. Hope no one else has any negative effects....

@Katmary71 I am ready to party and hit the 80 lbs and then beyond. I’m really wanting to 100 lbs before Hubby and I take our anniversary trip in October. That will feel so amazing and I will look so good in my new clothes! That is so great of you to be helping at the food bank garden! I’m sure you are much appreciated.

@trooworld Awe thanks, girlfriend!! OK, you enjoyed the birthday and that is great! Now you buckle down and focus the rest of the week. Cut the points, drink tons of water, and take lots of nice long walks. You will be fine!

@dignow96 Yayyy on the scale going down! I’m sure you know that if you increase your lifting water can be retained in your body. Just keep doing what works!

Hi Team! Not too much to report today. After church, I spent most of the day at my computer doing church work and putting together a menu and grocery list for next week. The scale was down again this morning, but I don’t want to jinx it by announcing anything yet. Let’s just say that a happy dance was had and I’ve really got to watch it this week.
2021 WORD: TRANSFORMATION

@gwamajtw91 Glad your stress has gone down a little. Tax time is hectic!

@mlhopp93 Great to see your hard work is still paying off! I'm jealous you get the Pfizer shot. We have a limited number of them ordered for Australia, and I'm fairly certain they won't be shipping them to rural areas like where I live since they need to stay so cold. So I'm pretty sure we will be getting the Astrazenica (Oxford) one here. Which is not as effective for the milder cases, from what I've heard!

@bmotisko Great loss! Even though a lot was fluid, I'm sure not all of it! Congrats on being top of the leaderboard.

Congrats to the whole team on our epic collective effort last week! Congrats to @vegan4lyfe2012 and @davidji82 on hitting that leaderboard, too! Great work!

I went a bit off track this weekend. I had a 30th birthday party to attend, which was quite fun as it was 1990s themed. We all dressed up and enjoyed lots of 90s music, it was a blast! I did eat too much, and then again the next day but I didn't track it so I don't know how far over I was. I didn't overdo the drinking though, as I was driving so that is a positive, I suppose.
Back on track today. Focus this week is on getting back into the swing of things and getting more sleep as I've been slipping there and I can feel the difference. I want to get back to doing more walking and biking as well, as I feel good when I do that and I can always see the results on the scale. My goal this week is to exercise before work twice (I only work 4 days this week, and didn't do it this morning...).
You'll see on my bar charts below, I'm falling behind on most of my goals this month. I'm ok with it for the most part, but I need to refocus and get myself on track again before it gets out of hand.
