    Weigh in week:1 2/7/23
    Weigh in day: Monday
    Previous Week's weight: 207.6 1/31
    Todays Weight:206.2

    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

    @plummerbecky1 for some reason you are on there twice πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ˜ one appears to be correct so I put your weigh in there. Welcome to the team!

    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. πŸ“šπŸšΆ

    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!!

    Hi all! I'm "sort of" new to the group. Was a Big Butt Theory team member 6-7 years ago! And decided I'd give it another try for some extra motivation.

    I'm new this month to this group and loving it so far! My name is Jen, I'm 56 and live in Wisconsin. I am married with two grown sons, one in Chicago and one still at home. My older sister and my energetic golden doodle both live with me and inspire me to move more. I struggle with habits of all kinds, and love to have a group to support me since supporting others seems to help me too! :smile: I have a sleeveless Mother of the Groom Dress to fit in at the end of July, so that is another motivator! I love FitBit also, so I'll email you @ells_bellz on FitBit. Also, @DaffyGirl88 and @MamaSunflowers, I'd love an invite from you two also. jen.smith.white@gmail.com

    Welcome, Ellie! I sent you an email to invite you to add me as a friend on Fitbit. I am within 10 pounds of my highest weight ever (239), and I’m just so disappointed in myself that I keep gaining. I have a terrible time with tracking food. I resist it like mad. I pray we can help each other! Welcome to our team!!

    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! πŸ™πŸΌπŸ’ͺ🏼

    Continuing to pray for you! β€οΈπŸ™πŸ»
