I had a feeling your week would be momentous because your losses have been so study (and you're working so hard)...last week your weigh in was the same and I literally told myself...watch out for this guy next week, he's gonna have quite the drop! Congrats!! Hard work pays off!!
10th grade...that's amazing! So, have you started to think about what your ultimate goal is at this point?
I just ordered 4 pr of pants, one size smaller. I haven't been in that size since right after college, so I know what you mean!! I'm very hard to fit anyway and they were on sale with free shipping, so I said why not. It's more incentive to keep pushing forward! To be honest, I know I'm losing more in inches now than I am pounds, especially with all the walking I'm doing each month. I just love the way I'm feeling better and better each month.
CONGRATS again, my friend...keep up the great work!

Welcome to the new members. I’m happy to see you jumping right into the group, setting goals and posting introductions @AveLyra and @Smlisley! I’m looking forward to getting to know you all better. Welcome back @ewilhelm2487 and congratulations on the birth of Olivia Grace! I’m glad you came through such a difficult experience and everyone is healthy.
Here is my maintenance weigh in for the week.
PW: 127.6
CW: 127.5
SW: 168
LTD: 40.5
Last week, I reported that I had a DEXA bone density scan but hadn’t received the results yet. I contacted my doctor and learned I have some early signs of osteopenia - or bone thinning - so I’ll be adding a couple of new nutrition goals: (1) track my calcium intake more carefully and (2) increase my vitamin D and calcium as needed. I already incorporate a lot of body weight exercises into my workouts but may need to increase my weightlifting. I just thought it was worth mentioning the benefits of weight bearing exercise, especially for those of you approaching menopause or who have already experienced the resulting body changes.
Sending peace, love, and energy to anyone who needs a little extra boost this week!5 -
Daily Step Goal: 8,000
2/22: 9,580

PW: 196.6
CW: 196.8
LTD: 10.2
Struggling with trying to keep my calories steady while dealing with an increased appetite from weight lifting. When I'm working during the week it's easier to have a protein shake first when I start craving something, but I didn't do that this weekend and ended up snacking too much.2 -

LTD: 2.7 lbs (104.7 lbs since 7/10/2020)
Slower weight loss this go-round, but I'm happy with it. I'd like to lose ~half a pound a week going forward, while also building back some muscle mass.

Hi --
@jessicakrall8 I'm sorry I've been MIA! Clearly I should've waited to join til March 🤦♀️
I'm almost done all my graduate school interviews and hopefully when that's over I can get back to focusing, because this group immensely helped me when I was able to mentally commit. Unfortunately I've been all over the place recently (and it shows on the scale...)
Most recent weigh-in: 177.8
Hoping to do better next month, sorry again.2 -

Hi Guys and Happy Friday!! Busy day at work, but I got up early again this morning and walked for nearly a half hour, then did a brief walk on my break to make sure I got my half hour in for the day. Been walking a lot today and hit my step goal before I left work, so I think I'll end up close to, if not over, 8k for the day. Not too shabby.
So, what's the plan for everyone's weekend. I was going to walk after dropping my car off at the dealership in the morning to do my annual state inspection but it's going to be cold with a chance of rain...so much for that plan! I guess I'll get them to drop me home, or I might wait and just walk around the service center. I'll play that one by ear. Don't have a lot scheduled for the weekend, just a few things around the house. Got a movie I want to watch and a book to finish reading. IMPORTANT WORK THERE! LOL
Oh yeah, I hit my 38 intentional mile goal this morning for February!! I'm gonna do 40 for March! YAY!
Hope ya'll have a great weekend!

Now is the time to think ahead about the next month. What habits do you need to put into place to take you one step at a time, one day at a time, towards your goals? The Fat2Fit habit tracker is simple to use - just enter up to 5 habits, and check them off every day you do them. The green check marks are mighty nice! It helps to have a graphic reminder of how you are doing, and how you will get to your goals if you keep it up.
Time to set up your March 2022 Habit Tracker!
Go to https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10857488/fat2fit-habit-tracker-march-2022#latest
Follow the simple instructions and set it up! Be ready to start earning green check marks on Sunday

I’m probably going to try to maintain this week. Had some lower back issues and the bad weather has not cooperated with my walking routine. I’ve had some other things take priority this past week so I think I should just acknowledge that and move on.3 -
@jessicakrall8
Just wanted to confirm I will be coming back for March. I would also like to be joining the step challenge again with 12.000 steps. While I haven't been posting here, I did keep that up for the whole of February; that's one habit I didn't ruin at least. I will post my horrible starting weight in the new thread tomorrow.
Good job on finishing your miles for the month!1
