    Tuesday
    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: 0 (Thanks, Covid. 🙄)

    My doctor put me on Paxlovid because of my plethora of high risk factors. There are some interesting outcomes from being on it, but if it’s going to kick Covid to the curb for me, then they’re a small price to pay! I can do anything for five days! 🙏🏼💪🏼

    Hi everyone! I'm new here so I wanted to pop in and say hi.

    My name is Samantha and I'm a mom of 2 from Ontario Canada. I've done this challenge before, but I wasn't in the right headspace and dropped off. I'm in a much better place mentally and am ready to continue to hit my goals!

    @FindingSamMon Welcome! 🙋‍♀️ I'm originally from Buffalo and have family in the Toronto/Mississauga area.

    Weigh in February week 1 or 2.. I think I got it from last week!

    Pw:148.2
    CW. 148.3

    NSV -- went for a run this morning! My first run since I was 5 months pregnant (my girl is now 13 months.. it took me a long time to start again). I had to walk parts of the hills and my pace is about a minute slower per km than it used to be, but I'm so happy I did it and I have data to improve on!

    @MamaSunflowers Woot! 🎉🎉🎉 You go girl!

    Well…now I know why I could barely walk yesterday. I have Covid. This is a terrible time for me to be off for a week. My chorus tour to Italy is in four weeks. 🥺😭😭😭🤬🤧🤒

    So very sorry! Prayers for a speedy recovery for you! 😢🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

    Weigh in day: Monday
    Previous Week's weight: 207.6 1/31

    I think the data on the spreadsheet was when I did this before a year or so ago... Pre Covid. Start weight should have been 207.6 on sheet showing 180 I think

    Hi everyone!! My name is Sue, and I am 62 years old. I live in southern Maryland, am married, have two grown kids (1 in Seattle, 1 in VA), 2 grandbabies (VA) and 1 fur baby 🐶. I work full time, currently teleworking which appears may go on for.ev.er. I love to read, ride my bike, quilt, and make greeting cards. I am always up for a challenge (you've probably figured that out LOL) and am usually involved in multiple reading, fitness and Fitbit challenges at any given time. 📚🚶

    I have been on MFP for 10 years now and part of TBBT for almost 3. Wow...time sure does fly!! I joined TBBT after COVID/teleworking caused my weight to climb. I officially hit my goal of 140 lbs in September but sadly have been on a steady climb since my vacation in October. :/

    My goal for January was to get back into my normal eating and exercising routine. That failed as work didn't slow down as I had hoped. I did manage to lose a pound though so I'll consider it a win. :D

    Work still isn't slowing down and I'll be going on travel in March and April and then vacation in April so life seems to be picking up speed. Oh well, I will get through it.

    Welcome to our new teammates and welcome back to those returning. Here's to a great February!!

    Good luck everyone!!

    @ells_bellz I 😂😂😂 at your big butt remark. I think I sent you a FB friend request 🤷‍♀️ I am Susan B there but my avatar is Daffy so you should know it's me. I would LOVE to do a FB challenge as I haven't done one in a while and my step count is way down. 😟
