Yes I would like ot be in Septembers step count. I would like to increase my steps to 5000k. And right now where I enjoy walking most is later in the day on the treadmill. Mostly cause its too damn hot to walk around outside. But once it does start to cool down there are a couple trails near my house I would like to try. Just to see if I could do it.

yukie86 / Step goal: 5k daily
8/29 step count: 4,925
I was so close, didn't even realize - I could've paced before i called it a day, and would've easily made it. It's alright, opportunity to learn from the mistake.
**Note to self: check step-count (30min) before bedtime.1 -

@CharmingPassion I'm with you on your comment about the heat...Virginia has been insane with the humidity this summer. I wish we'd have a nice, long fall, but we won't...it will maybe give us two weeks between hot and cold and that's it. Then again, if I want the "true four seasons" thing I have to deal with snow...NO THANK YOU! I did my time in arctic h*ll...ahhh the MinneSNOWta years...don't get me started!!!! UGH! NEVER AGAIN north of the Ohio River...EVER!
I've asked repeatedly over the past two months...what IS your first name please? I need to fill in my chart. Thanks!
Got you down for Sept.

@amydandy40 Welcome to the team Amy! Take a few minutes and go back to the first page of this thread and read through the topics as there's lots of information a new person will need. We just started the thread on Sunday so you only have a page and a half...then, if you have any questions, that's what I'm here to handle.
You'll find lots of support here, ideas, suggestions and even a push now and then when it's needed!
I hope you'll find it as helpful as I have in the years I've been here.
When you have a second, take a few minutes and introduce yourself...give us an idea of what your concerns are and maybe a couple of goals you're working on. The more we know, the more helpful we can be...even if it's just to listen.
Hope you have a great month!
Jessica (Captain)

- Vitamins: yes
Good morning team. Had a good time at the gym. Napped in the afternoon as usual, but I also needed to do this because I went to the choir in the evening! It was the first time they started singing together again since Covid. They start at 20:00 until 22:00 which is a bit rough for me. I usually go to bed around 20:30. But I think it's worth it! The group seems fun, they sing nice songs (pop mostly) and I really do love singing. I also moved to this town in March, when basically everything was still locked down, so I am happy to meet new people, regardless of the energy it costs me. I already sort of planned this is my weekly schedule because Tuesday is my restday. If I have the energy to do something, that's fine, but I am not planning to move my butt much today.3 -

Every time I thing I have myself together, life comes at me again. I had a litter of newfoundland puppies 2 1/2 years ago and one was returned to me because their other male dog became aggressive, causing this dog to not like other male dogs. and being as I have a large male myself, I have to make arrangements for my dogs in order to keep this dog long enough to find him a good home. as of yesterday I found him a home that seems super promising, and the dog instantly loved them, so thank goodness all worked out, but that is all I have been doing the past 3 days is getting this dog and finding his new forever home.4

Hi everyone! My name is Amy. I am a single mom to 3 beautiful girls and a puppy! I am a school nurse. I have recently lost about 60 pounds but would like to lose another 40 or so. The weight is definitely not coming off as easy now. I love to walk and walk for about an hour every morning. I struggle with portion size and not drinking enough water (because i LOVE iced coffee!). I excited for this journey and for the motivation and support. Question- do I need to log my weighins on a spreadsheet or just post it here on my weigh in day? Thanks!4

- Exercise: no
- Net calories: 1180
- Water: 3450 ml
- Steps: 8.087 / 7.500
- Vitamins: yes
Good morning team. Had a fairly quiet day at home. I did do some gardening which was still plenty exhausting. I really dislike mowing; so much effort! But it looks nice again. Otherwise not much to say about the day. Food was all fine, my weight has been slowly going down every day, so I hope that continues.3 -

Hi all- started back to school today (school nurse). Very stressful with Covid. Walked for an hour before work. Managed to eat pretty well. I am enjoying the accountability of this group. I hope everyone is doing well!1

Another day at the gym. Had a good food day as well. This morning my weight went up by 0.2 kg. It's a tiny bit, but I still don't like it!
I know that's what happens when you weigh daily though; it never goes down in a straight line.

Burpees. I apparently dislike burpees. I don't want to do them but it feels really good when you used to be not able to do 1 and now can do 5. But I still don't like them.
Rant aside healthy eating + calorie counting + excersizing + actually sticking to it all this time = I haven't felt and looked this good for a very long time.
I'm definitely not the finished article, but even a dent is worth it!
Really appreciate this group, even being a part of it is motivation enough 🙏
Keep it up guys xx5 -
