Hi @jessicakrall8 - I sent a private message on Sunday but haven't heard back. According to my math, and the posted spreadsheets, Ilost 1.48% last week which puts me in second for our team yet I wasn't listed at all.

It seems I'm being missed in a number of things and I'm wondering if I'm not showing up for some reason?

Good morning @Aqualang26 ...I'm sorry about the weirdness in all of the stats. There was a posting in regards to the fact that I missed your "in the green" stat and I posted an apology, but I did not receive a PM from you. I will tell you that the private message mailbox is wonky at best and I've left messages for many and they never received. No excuse, just an explanation. I've written to the MODS with your concerns and I have someone checking the formulas on the spreadsheet and getting back to me concerning that...sometimes the formulas don't carry over well from month to month. You know the drill...anytime humans are involved, mistakes are made.

I am VERY sorry you seem dejected about all of this. It is never my intention to ignore or slight anybody. Let me continue checking on things and we'll see what's going on...in any case, you're certainly doing really well in your journey and THAT is incredible. Keep on track and you're certain to have another great month!

I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks for your patience...
Jessica

Wow @Jax_Grim 20 days a year just for the commute! That is incredible. I’m not sure what your commute is like but driving can be added stress for people too.

I’ve also had to move to working from home in rotating shifts. In the beginning, I was grateful my office figured something out to keep more people safe and I loved the idea of working from home but the novelty wore off after a few months and I really started missing people. I gained a new appreciation for people who have always worked from home. But @CharmingPassion made a good point, to try and find other ways to connect with people.

I also had to figure out a away to stop eating around the clock while working from home. Planning and prepping meals became more important than ever as well as keeping healthy whole foods around and no longer keeping unhealthy snacks in the house (ice cream sandwiches were my nemesis).

Not sure what my new normal will be like work wise after all of this. I know it won’t be permanent work from home but I am sure it will be more virtual meetings and less driving than in the past.

Yikes. It’s the middle of the afternoon and I have 0 calories left to eat. I had a bit of an incident with 4 chocolate peanut butter cookies... what to do.... any ideas?

Entire can of green beans if only about 50 calories, tuna is low in calories...bowl of cereal...light soups (Progresso, Chunky Lite). Scrambled egg and toast...Been there many times...
