Shape Shifters Team Chat - JANUARY 2023

Hi Y'all:
Sorry that I haven't been posting much this week, other than my standard notes...not sure why I'm having such trouble but the holidays were hard, I'm still missing Hazel who passed away a month ago and things are stressful at work and very busy, so when I get home, I just walk and then want to kinda clam up and just relax.
I'm really trying to be perky again, but it's just not that simple...
The last few days though I've walked several times around the building at work and take a few extra "move around" breaks. Really feeling strong with my walking. Also, not doing too bad on the calorie front either. Just wish I could get my emotions in check. One thing at a time, I guess.
If anyone has a suggestion for the next group challenge, which will start over the weekend, I'd appreciate your feedback...thanks in advance.
Hope your Friday is peaceful and leads you into a wonderful weekend.
Take care,

@SavannahS2016 Please post your starting weight when you signed up for our team. The MODS need it for the chart. Thanks!
@GwenS23 If you'd like to weigh in again on Saturday and have me update the chart, you can do that as well, since you're switching and it will have been nearly a week since the last weigh in...let me know!

Don't worry about us Jessica! You are still doing a lot for this group, just by managing the household. I am sure everyone here understands you need time to grief. So please give yourself that time. I know it can be really hard to (want to) connect with people when you feel very down and that is fine! If it helps you to relax and read at the end of the day, then do that. Different things work for different people. We will still be here when you feel better, and of course we are also here when you feel bad.6 -

Good morning Shape Shifters. Not a very interesting day here. My arm was bothering me a bit which is probably from too much computer use the past few weeks. So I spent some more time on my puzzle. Tinus was very 'helpful' too. I did my workout in the evening, had a shower and went to bed. Because Wednesday's workout was extra, I have done one 3 days in a row now. I can feel it and I am looking forward to doing nothing today. Happy Friday everyone

Weigh-in
✨Username: kodakslim (April)
✨Weigh-in day Friday (6 Jan)
✨PW 161 lbs
✨CW 156.4 lbs
✨LTD 4.6 lbs
✨GW: 142 lbs (14.4 lbs to go)
Very happy with a 4.6 lbs loss over 10 (ish) days. I know it won’t be like this every week Even if I can lose a minimum of 1 lb per week from now on, that’ll do fine.
Have a great Friday everyone x6 -
Hello! Finally made it to NYC last night! I left the house at noon Tuesday! So far, have gotten in all my workouts, but who knows about calories…
Bought some Voodoo Donuts in the Denver airport for breakfast this morning. Left them on the plane and had to go back to get them! Had one this morning (no way it was only 280 calories!!!!) Glad I’m excused from my weigh in today. It would not be pretty. Heading home tomorrow.
Have a great weekend everyone!6 -

@pupowl Thanks for your kind words...and the lovely Tinus picture. I made the decision to go and fill out an application at the shelter halfway between my house and where I work. Plan to go tomorrow if I'm feeling good. There's a lot of upper respiratory stuff going around at the office and I found myself clearing my throat a lot today, so I want to wait and see how I am in the morning. My neighbor is going to go with me. Not sure if I'll pick one out this weekend or just get the paperwork started...hoping for a year old boy cat this time...but we'll see. There's always adult cats needing a home and the kittens are sought after, so I start at a year old and up...
Hope everyone has a nice weekend.

That is exciting! I can only imagine how empty your house must feel right now. It never hurts to look. Maybe you will find the perfect kitty to love on. I would love updates of course and hope you feel better soon.3 -

That is a little frustrating. I checked several times, but nope, really not lost a single thing. My week was pretty good so I wasn't expecting no loss. Oh well, only thing to do is keep going.3 -

Good morning Shape Shifters. I spent a lot of time on my puzzle and finished it in the afternoon. It was a tough one, but also very fun. Onto the next one! I did a bit of cleaning as well. I was counting on my mom visiting from Thursday the 12th ~ Sunday the 15th. We talked about it on 3 different occasions and she always said the 12th. So I made a reservation for dinner on Saturday evening. That way my weigh in Saturday morning would not be affected by restaurant food. I texted her on whatsapp yesterday to ask what groceries to get and to tell her we are eating out Saturday and she replied "Wednesday the 11th though?". So she somehow managed to tell me wrong 3 times and now nothing lines up anymore. I moved the restaurant to Friday, but no way in hell am I going to step on the scale for the group the morning after a huge meal. So I guess I will be weighing in Friday next week. There are a few other small things that have now become more annoying, so I am a little grumpy about it which is probably silly. I was in bed by 20:40 and didn't sleep until 23:00 so that was very fun too. Happy Saturday everyone
