Happy Friday, all!
I had a birthday short trip and had a great time with my bf and cousin!
Well, I gained a bit weight, but I believe it is just water weight!

Good morning team. Not much to report. I had a good food day, good gym day. I was very tired so I didn't go to the store. Will do that this morning. I also went to bed before 19:00 which was a little dramatic, but I couldn't stay awake anymore! Slept almost 10 hours total.
Happy Saturday everyone

Yay! Surprised as all week my weight has stuck the same as last Sat.I've stayed within my calorie goal all week,but I know how fickle those darn scales can be !!
Have a great weekend everyone & smash those goals.
@Pupowl thank you for your kind words.I have always danced since I was little so I still find I can pick up steps fairly easily.I do make mistakes sometimes.Just dance like nobody's watching is one of my favourite sayings & things to do 💃💃💃💃5 -
I'm trying to get motivated to head outside for a walk...it's cooler today and not supposed to rain until this evening, but it's been such a busy and tough week, I'm not sure I'm winning this motivation battle! Ever been there?!!
So how are you spending your Caturday?!! My Hazel thinks it's the best day of the week!! LOL
Enjoy!! Oh and hey...haven't heard from many of you this week...would love an update on how you're doing...also, how did your week go in the Captain's Challenge area of focus? What went well, what was a struggle? Tomorrow starts Week Week 4...we're halfway through...hope it's helping you!

Happy it’s a loss, still not back to where I was before my Vegas holiday.
Today is a running around day. Taking my youngest to dance, groceries and more house cleaning. We are still under construction, it is an entrance way addition, new kitchen and updated bathroom. They started late May and were supposed to be done early August.
They were not careful and have created a massive mess, I have washed and scrubbed one of my floors 5 times. I finally have the paint off it. Can’t wait for them to be finally done.3 -

Just wanted to stop by and say hi! Sorry I've been so absent from the group chat the last month or so. I've taken on a new role at work which has been great but it has increased my workload and is keeping me very busy. School and outside life is also keeping me very busy lately so I have been away from the group a lot outside of my weekly weigh ins. Sorry!
It looks like there have been some great losses lately, great job team!3 -

Ugh, I didn't expect all that weight to come on so fast. I hope it's mostly water weight. I ate entirely too much food the latter half of this week. Too much, plus, I keep eating cereal by the handfuls right out of the box. I think breakfast cereal is not going on my shopping list again. Plus, too much jerky. That stuff is addictive. I also have too little vegetables in my diet. That's something I'm going to work on this week. No more eating cereal as snack and adding more vegetables to my meals.
@Waifer003 I've always wanted to see the aurora borealis. Awesome picture!
@Pupowl I like how consistent you are in giving us a snapshot of your day. I hear you about buying treats. I have very poor control over what I eat and tend to finish whole bags of chips/cookies, etc. I've been out of control with eating cereal of late. I hope the review for your disability goes well.
@CharmingPassion I hope all goes smoothly with your recovery!
@yukie86 Peace and wellbeing are very important. Sometimes it's better to distance yourself from relationships that are harmful to you than to let it keep hurting you.
@izzyred9400 I hope your shoulder will be okay and won't need surgery!
@GSAllumbaugh I know you can do it! It sounds like you have good plans in place. Keep up the good work.
@jessicakrall8 Hey Jessica, I hear you about food just calling out to you. It does for me as well. Very annoying. I hope you had a great week!3 -

I was lax on my goals this week and it shows. Not going to dwell on it (it is what it is), just going regain focus and get back to basics.
We're past the mid-month mark now, let's stay focused and keep at it, team!3 -
@Arc130
Thank you, I am glad people appreciate it! It personally really helps me as well to check in daily, no matter how brief. I think I will try to only buy treats that have a max of 400 calories. So even if I end up eating the whole package, I can do some damage control. I am also pretty lazy; if I don't have anything at home, I won't go out to get it either. So once it's gone, it's gone. Good luck getting in more veggies.

Happy Weekend Everyone,
Hope you all have a nice, relaxing (yet productive) weekend. Want to tell you all how thankful I am for this group. Planning to do some housecleaning and a bit of cleaning up in the garden today while it’s so nice outside.6 -
Uh oh - now you opened the cat door Jessica
Awwww @Waifer003 Is that your fur baby?!! SO CUTE!!!! And upside down is twice as sweet!!!! I see the little toofies and the boop nose!! I'm in love!
I'm completely nuts about little yorkie puppies and kitties of all colors, breeds and sizes...I'm just a nut about them...SHARE AWAY!!!
BTW, that wasn't my baby...here's my Hazel Joy...

Very proud of myself today...got up early...headed out to Chesapeake City Park and walked a mile...whew I was sweatin!!! It was nearly 80 by the time I was done and IN THE SUN! I earned a fat gold star today!!! LOL Felt good...and I've only got 11 miles to go to hit my goal this month of 28 intentional walking miles...next month, I'll do 30...started back in July at 20 miles...going up a little each month so as not to overwhelm this left knee. Weight going down, exercise going up...it's been a good few weeks!
I'm almost at my step goal today! YAY!
This week, my focus was on journaling...I've been making postings and sharing thoughts all week...did a little journaling...writing inner-personal things...planning...did really well on logging food, water and activity all week. So, it was successful...wish I'd done a little more but it's also been busy and stressful at work, so I've done well, all things considering. Kept the cravings under control and handled my monthly Chinese food meal quite well...cut the portion size down and finished it in two meals, not one. Didn't have too much swelling, but we'll see how Monday's weigh in goes...might be a slight gain, but it's the best I can do. I don't want to get back to the days where I restrict myself so much that I just throw in the towel. I'm GOING to live with my eating plan...it's not a diet.
I think for Week 4 of the Captain's Challenge, I'll focus on food choices...like @Arc130 said, I need to eat more vegetables...so want to work on that this week.
Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend!

Awww 🥰. So sweet! I love Caturday ❤️
The upside down photo was Cleo and this one here is Dibby. These two sweethearts were our foster cats at the start of Covid (although it took about two hours for us to make it permanent lol). Just before Covid started we lost our 23 year old cat Waifer. Didn’t think we were ready for new kitties for a while. But Cleo and Dibby were definitely the key to my family getting through the pandemic.

@Waifer003 Last fall, I lost my 12 yr old Lacy Sue very suddenly...I went about a month with no purr and then rescued Hazel and renamed her Hazel Joy because that's what she brought me...joy. She's the most gentle cat I've ever had and I'd have cats since I was 8 yrs old. I went to the rescue to get a kitten, but something about her just grabbed at my heart. She was the oldest cat there and had never had a home...4 yrs in a shelter is just wrong...so I brought her home. She's very skiddish...even now...scared of every little sound she hears...but she loves to get her ears rubbed and just recently has discovered the joys of shoe laces...so now she wakes me in the middle of the night to play...I've created a monster...so before bed, I have to hide her shoe laces until morning! LOL She's so sweet...but they overfed her at the shelter, so I'm trying to lower her food intake...she's watching what she eats just like we are!
Here was my Lacy right before she passed...I miss her every day.
