    Steps: 3,019
    Sleep: ✔️✔️✔️✔️

    I removed exercise and the November badge from my goals for the week. I hope in a few days I can start exercising again. I am still coughing and wheezing but it doesn’t feel like I am breathing through a clogged straw today. I plan on grocery shopping tomorrow. I appreciate my husband shopping the last few weeks but I like picking out my fruit and veggies.

    Happy FriYAY!

    I also like picking out my own fruits and veggies! I hope you are feeling better soon.
    Hey! Just found this group, and am looking forward to losing it (the weight, that is). I, like so many, put a LOT of weight on during the covid lockdowns. I got in really bad nutrition habits and used food as a stress reducer. I ballooned up to the largest weight I've ever been. My company makes outdoor furniture, and one day I threw my back out bad while lifting a picnic table. A trip to the doctor and a discouraging MRI gave me motivation to get back to my normal weight, which for me is about 215 lbs. That's 66 lbs. away still, which seems daunting at the moment. I've lost 21 lbs. since I began, 11 of which have been since I joined MFP. I'm typically a very positive man, and I know I can do this, but I can use all the motivation and support I can get! Thanks!

    It's nice to have you in the group. It sounds like you are doing great on the path to weight loss!

    I ate so many inflamatory things and I feel fluffy and lethargic. I hope I can get out of the habit and back to good eating.

    Start Weight: 237.6
    Previous Week: 228.8
    Current Week: 228.1

    I'm not upset about this slowdown - cycle week, so -0.7 is ok with me! I wanted to finish the month at a 10lb loss but I'm grateful and happy that it's close and I've been consistent (even though you wouldn't think so by my inconsistent logging - next goal to accomplish).

    I hope everyone is doing great and feeling better too! My sinus infection finally went away and 2 days after I was hit with a toothache so bad that I could barely eat. You have to laugh at some point, but at least my dentist was able to resolve it quickly this week!

    Congrats on the loss! Glad your sinus infection is better.

    That is an interesting way to feel but I get it.

    Steps: 8,725
    Sleep: ✔️✔️✔️✔️
    Log food: ✔️✔️✔️
    Exercise: ✔️✔️

    My exercise was short yesterday. I worked my arms with the pool weights and then did laps. I was so tired after the laps I got in the hot tub. Today is a busy day. I had two appointments this morning. I have lots to get done this afternoon. I am off to get my lunch.

    My goals this week are:
    Log food at least 5 days
    Sleep 6.5 hours minimum
    Exercise 3 days


    @Megan_smartiepants1970
    I am going to change my step goal to 3500 and 9000 on pool days. I am going to gradually increase my steps.

    Not much this week, but TOM just started, which doesn't really help, but I'm sure next week will be better.
