    Hey all,

    Weigh in:
    username - podperson1
    PW - 222.0
    CW - 219.2

    Quite surprised by that weigh in but has been down for a couple days now so will take the win lol.

    @BodyTalking - thank you, it's a lovely part of the country, though super hilly! I feel like having to go up and down the hills kinda balances out the number of fish n chip restaurants and ice-cream shops :smile:

    @GarysGirl78 - hope you're feeling better, that's some impressive steps!

    @melaniedscott - love your photos too, the random flowers pushing through are so pretty (where is this from, sorry I've probably missed it lol)

    Not been too bad a week, work is stressing me out but not much new there! I currently do 3 days and they are pushing me again to take on more hours, not sure if I want to but they are pretty much promising me the raise I've been chasing for months if I agree. I'm the only one who does my job so when I'm not in things just don't happen. Shall have a think tonight, I'm def not doing 5 days but might agree to a few more hours.

    Weather has been a bit hit and miss here this week so not been getting my steps in like I should. Hoping it's fine tomorrow as am wanting to go to an outdoor theatre show of Sense and Sensibility and won't be much fun in the rain.

    Won't be posting steps this week. I only have like 15,000 total if that. My fitbit is broken and not picking up all my steps so I have stopped wearing it. I was trying to order a new one to have for my vacation but that just won't happen. I imagine it would not be here by Thursday. I will have to take a pass for a couple weeks and look for a new one when I get back.

    I was in Helena, MT. In fact, these were taken on Mount Helena. Went hiking with a group. My asthma acted up on the 1906 trail, so I sat on a stump for a bit and then took the Prairie Trail and the Ambrose Trail around for a bit--which are flatter and less climby.

    The outdoor Sense and Sensibility sounds fun.

    No worries, whenever you can rejoin is fine. I don't know if you carry your phone while walking, but there are step counter apps for phones; Google Fit app isn't terrible and does step count.

    Glad to finally see a break through on my plateau! If anyone else is facing a plateau, I know they are frustrating, but stick with it! You will get to the other side. Welcome to the new members!

    Hi, everyone!
    I unfortunately will not be able to submit my weight for this week since I don't have access to a scale.

    Hope you have a great weekend! =)

    Maybe I should move my weigh day because I don't get around to posting in until Thursday typically. I like Mondays because it holds me more accountable over the weekend when I'm off my routine.

    Hey all,

    Congrats to all the steppers, some awesome numbers there!

    @BodyTalking - I am hoping to get to Prague this winter, it looks beautiful :) I would say no chippies would help me avoid temptation, but I'm sure I'd just find something else lol!

    @ksludwig - fab loss! I hate plateaus, I get so discouraged, so glad you've broken yours.

    @EDTake2 - welcome back! I'm kinda a new starter as well (last month) but this is going to be the time that sticks :)

    So, outdoor Sense and Sensibility at the zoo was a lot of fun, even if we got rained on a bit by the end. The funniest bit was the lions were apparently restless so it kept being interrupted by background roaring. At one point the actors were saying something like, 'oh no, Marianne is not back yet and it could be dangerous out there.' and there was a huge round of roaring which cracked everyone up - dangerous indeed :D

    Apart from that has been a pretty quiet week. I caved to Indian takeway last night, but just took a small portion and the scales are still down this morning, so quite proud of myself. Just need to resist all the leftovers in the fridge now ;) I'm thinking I might have another small portion for dinner and then throw the rest. It's quite hard for me as I was brought up with a 'do not waste food' mentality, but I am trying to reprogramme myself (easier said than done).

    The weather is looking quite nice here today and tomorrow so might try and get outside and do something. The Edinburgh festival starts next week and while I love it in many ways, it also means everywhere becomes crowded and chaotic so need to enjoy some relative quiet beforehand :)
    Hope everyone has a great weekend x

    @podperson1 this is more like the Czech market food you'll find in winter. ijb1bk6iu6cf.jpg
    That sounds like a good laugh with the lions 🦁 Enjoy the quiet before the festival madness - I've only been once but there is a good atmosphere.

    Hi Everyone thank you for the welcome! I can’t wait to start this challenge. I’m really looking forward to losing weight but mostly improving my health and fitness. :smile:

    Welcome new and returning members! 😊

    Sorry I haven’t been very chatty here lately, it’s been long and stressful hours at work the past couple weeks and will continue to be for the next 2-3 at least. Between trying to get my workouts in, cooking, cleaning and my dog I’ve just not had the time to check in here a lot. 😔

    Weigh In Day: Saturday
    PW (Previous Weight): 239.2
    CW (Current Weight): 240.0

    Ugh. I have really been struggling to take care of myself while getting my new business started. There's so much to do before opening day, and almost all of it involves sitting at the computer. And I honestly have so little faith in my ability to change that I have lost touch with my motivation to do so.

    But I can't just say "eh, whatever - I'll just do nothing and stay where I'm at." Because my weight keeps going UP when I don't actively try to lose weight.

    So it's back to the drawing board. This week I will try a variation of something that helped me a long time ago: I'll make one small change I can win at easily. I have a meeting with my dietitian today and will get her help figuring out what do.

    Weigh-in-Saturday
    Starting weight: 81.7 kg/180.12 lb
    Previous weight: 79.6 kg/175.49 lb
    Current weight: 79.6 kg/175.49 lb

    No change for me this week. I went up midweek but came back to the same as last. I guess I know how much to consume and how active to be in order to stay as I am and, at the same time, that I need to increase my activity to make changes. I'm in a good place with what and how much I'm eating, so it's all about the exercising now. Having spent this month really concentrating on caloric deficit, next month will be maintaing that and upping the ante!

    Have a lovely weekend 🤍

    Still no gain or loss, but again this is fine for me. This will be my last check in until November. About to embark on a couple of projects that will prevent me from maintaining my usual routine. See you when I return!
