For the step challenge - I have been below my goal of 10,000 steps, but working to pick it up. It's actually been pretty nice in my neck of the woods (IA/NE area).
10/1: 5,862
10/2: 10,705
10/3: 3,710
10/4: 6,611
10/5: 3,504
10/6: 6,902
10/7: 8,357
For the Captain's Challenge - I worked on logging my food, the challenge was that I was in St. Louis with my husband to see Alice Cooper and I didn't eat super awesome and I didn't take the time to log my food. The good thing was the scale was kind and I have learned that I need to always take time to log - it doesn't take that much time out of my day I also didn't log in to check the boards and the things you all have shared. I think my goal is to actually put 15 minutes on my calendar each day to spend some time here. If it is on my calendar, hopefully I'll have some uninterrupted time just for me!! My focus this week will to get my water in - this has always been a struggle for me. I have cut way back on my diet soda, so I have been able to tell the difference in how I feel. I hope you all have a great weekend!!4 -

Happy Thanksgiving weekend to my friends in Canada! Enjoy the time with family and friends and say a prayer for those who are alone on the holiday!

Non-stop day at work, even working OT tonight...so no walks today for me...trying to do enough around where I'm at to at least finish my 6k steps, but not sure I'll get that done...some days it can't be helped. Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! I'll get some walking in sometime but it's supposed to rain off and on all weekend here in Virginia...
Take care all and stay safe!

Hey All,
Just arrived at our mountain condo for Thanksgiving weekend. Long drive but excited to be here to do some hiking and enjoy some turkey. Hoping to get out this evening for a walk before it gets dark, but only have an hour or so to eat dinner and get outside. Let the relaxation begin!5 -

Thanks, I hope your weekend is not too bad. Hopefully the rain will hold off for the most part!2 -
Weigh in for me is tomorrow. Still getting into the swing of things. My focus for the captain's challenge was to log my food. So far I only missed one day. That's not too bad, especially since prior to this week I've not been logging for a long time. I just totally forgot to log that day but promised myself to do better!2

Good morning team. Another busy day has passed. Managed to do quite a bit with my dad, but not everything. The things that are left to do, I can probably do by myself. Will see if I can find some energy for that next week or something. Not really in a rush, just need to make sure the bulbs are in the ground before it starts freezing, which is a ways away. My food wasn't great. Mostly a lot of bread things with cheese. Not sure about total calories, except that it was too much.
I need to clean the house today because it's a mess after yesterday. We walked quite a bit of dirt inside. I planned to go to the gym, but I really don't feel up for it. Just sore and exhausted so I cancelled my timeslot. Just going to take it easy today.A few pictures of what we have done (this isn't everything).
We put in some new lavender and orpine. Covered it with some treebark and we blocked off the open parts at the bottom of the fence.
Removed the grapes and put winter jasmine back.
Put in a new, adorable tree. It's a Japanese Dappled Willow and doesn't get bigger than around 2 meters.3 -

Morning all,only a small loss today but at least going in the right direction.I have been trying to limit alcohol to weekends only since I got back from holiday,not very successfully.So hopefully I can do better next week.
I'm walking to my sister's house today which is about 2 miles away so hoping to get my steps in.My neice & husband & 2 children are over to visit for the day.I haven't seen them for nearly 2 years due to covid.Can't wait to give them a cuddle.
Have a great weekend everyone.4 -

Yukie86... It's the weekend
Saturday Weigh-in:
PW: 135.6
CW: 134.00
* Just a note about weight: My Thursday dinner was (takeout) KungPao chicken with steamed vegetables (not bad choices for takeout - in my opinion) but probably packed with sodium. I weighed myself, out of curiosity, the next morning (Friday) and was at 138. That means that 4lbs just the day before was from water retention, likely resulting from the sodium.
Step update:
