Hey all 13,000+ steps today (lucky me) and I'm still feeling fresh. I committed to a new food plan last Monday and so far it's working out well. I was out all day so took my lunch with me to resist temptation. I even turned down the most gorgeous looking cake which I'm really happy about. My absolute bottom lines are no sugar and no flour - so that would have busted two of them. I went to see Past Lives the movie - which is so slow to begin with but also respectful, sensitive & richly layered with an amazing emotional pay-off at the end. I shared a pot of tea with a friend in this beautiful garden. All in all a lovely day.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Sunday and Joe and I are driving up to church this morning. It is an hour and 5 minute drive. Not too terribly bad. But Joe has cameras today so it is a must. They have not asked me to do children's rooms this week so I guess they are pretty well staffed over there with the kids being back in school and volunteering back up. I really want to do something today. I was in bed most the day yesterday in pretty bad pain. They are doing an ultrasound for me on Thursday because I am having really bad period cramps and shooting pain on my left side and I am not having periods. I was suppose to have a period at the beginning of September and did not have one. I am worried I have developed Fibroids like my sister did. I hurt constantly and I am afraid to take any paid meds because I don't know what will work and what won't because I don't know what the issue is. It is impacting my working out because I barely want to move most days.
@cormierannie - I so love your positive posts every morning. It is great to see. I know your daughter went to Prom last year so when does she graduate high school? My son just graduated in May. So he is a new graduate.
@EmPea888 - That is awesome with all your steps. I need to commit to a new food plan. I have to figure something out. That does look like a beautiful garden. I would love to sit there and socialize or even sit there and read a good book.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Monday and it is going to be a very busy day today. I am thinking that my co worker leaves early today so I will be alone in the afternoon and then Wednesday she has the whole day off. I am sure that is how it is this week and then Thursday I have my ultrasound for my issues going on. She is having medical things done too on Wednesday. So I am sure she will be ok with me taking a little longer to get back from my appointment. I am hoping that something get resolved with the ultrasound. That would be nice. I am excited for going to work today. I always love going back to work after the weekend. Not that I don't love the weekend but I love what I do and I love being able to help the people that I help.
@cormierannie - That is awesome that your daughter did graduate. Congrats on that.
Well i hope you all have a wonderful Monday.

Well I rejoined MFP one week ago and I've done my first WI - 2lbs off - woo hoo! I know we have a while before the Challenge starts and it's nice to be clocking some progress in the meantime.2

Rain, rain, rain. That's what we have in Boston area. I'm so tired of it.
Otherwise, doing well and staying active.
How's everyone?1 -
@Tabatha_Cain WOOHOO Love that you have found a job you love to go to!! It may have taken a bit, but what a GREAT PAYOUT!! That made me smile so much reading it. Being a Captain of the team I am on with the 5% as well as an Over All Leader I LOVE doing it!! Makes me smile so much. You know the feeling!!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Tuesday and boy is it going to be a good day. I am hoping to get more travel sales in. I did sell those airline tickets I had to look up yesterday. It is great. I love doing that. I know I have my insurance licenses and stuff but I really love working with the travel stuff. It is great.
@cormierannie - That is awesome that your community does movie nights. We have them only during the month of June and July which stinks cause it would be nice if it were longer and they are always kids movies. Nothing really for adults.
@EmPea888 - Congrats. That is a good weight loss amount. Keep going and keep working hard.
@Lopeyp - Sorry about all the rain. I hope you get some sunny weather soon.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday.

Good morning. I seem to have misplaced the thread about when the challenge actually begins1

@JustRamona the start date is in this group's description, October 7. However, invitations to the team will be sent out the last week of September and Practice Week will begin September 30th. We like to have members on the team a week before we begin to get everyone settled and ready to go.

Hello all - I need to get some good mileage logged today. It's going to rain all day here in London UK so I think I'll have to hit my elliptical rather than the pavement! I'll do small bursts every hour.
I've been building my activity up gently but the real work is yet to come. With me in the past I've been slow to get in to the exercise habit but once I do I really look forward to it.
I can't wait to find out which team I'm in - sounds like I won't have long now. I've given MFP a few tries now over the year but I've always tried to go-it-alone - that doesn't seem to work for me & I'm so glad to be part of this community.
Thank you @Tabatha_Cain and @Dianedoessmiles1 for the encouragement - it's nice to see the chats springing to life. I did a mid-week WI and a few more pounds have come off so that's 5lbs in total now. So that I don't miss the deadline I'm going to make Thursday my official WI day so I'll officially log my weight tomorrow I hope everyone has a lovely day.
It's going to be so good to ditch this excess baggage - it is definitely not wanted on-voyage.0 -
@cmfarrell36 Happy Birthday Christine , have a good day0

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and it is going to be a good day. My co-worker is out today due to medical appointments today so it will be me alone upfront. Which is not really a bad thing. I do have some more travel to book today so we will see how that goes and how much the agents have to help me today.
@EmPea888 - The elliptical is my enemy. That thing works so many muscles. It makes me hurt just thinking about it. Right now I can withstand about 5 minutes on that machine. Than I give up as my legs are butter at that point. Way to go on the weight check. I love exercise too. Once I get into a groove I am good. It is getting to that groove that is the problem.
Well I hope you all have a Wonderful Wednesday.
Tabatha1 -
@Tabatha_Cain - I'm with you on both counts. I'm really going to have to build up on the elliptical slowly and for a few minutes at a time. The old body rebounds quite quickly though so it's worth that initial creaky pain - I have got to oil those joints and motion is lotion. Ditto for other kinds of exercise. My body loves it but from where I'm sitting now this seems like an impossible task - that's just my mind's trick though - this is all very doable!

@EmPea888, Have you all been getting a lot more rain this year than normal? I live in Maine (on the Atlantic Ocean, the furthest state up next to Canada) and we are way over our limit. Please stay safe. I love love love the 5%!! I've gone from 288 lbs down to 170! All because of the support here. We had been on Sparkpeople (a free diet site) until 2 years ago when it suddenly closed. We searched and searched various sites and agreed MFP was the BEST Place for us to land!! We've been active here now for 2 years. GREAT JOB on the weight loss!! WOW!! FANTASTIC!!! Next Weds (Most likely) we will start to invite members to the team. Those on any team will be put on the team that needs the support the most. They will LOVE YOU so much whichever team you end up on. Come the Winter Challenge you'll have team choice if you'd like a different team, or you may be put on a team that you love right off. It's so much fun!! I am on and off this chat since I also help on the chat on the team I am on (During the break~ the challenge runs 8 weeks~ we combine 2 teams together for added fun! If one wishes to remain accountable year round, we can!! AND I DO!!) is always a crazy chat!! I read the posts here, but do not respond to them all. There's not enough time. LOL though its fun!
@Tabatha_Cain, did you sleep much? YO! You were up early as I was hehehehe just going to bed!! It was a LATE NIGHT for me!2 -
@Dianedoessmiles1 hey Diane - well I think we had all the rain last night but not for very long thank heavens. I'm in the UK so I'm no stranger to rainy days - but these days I do tend to wait for a break in the weather to have a walk. As Mark Twain said about England: if you don't like the weather, wait a minute.
I used to be on SparkPeople and I really loved it. It was a shame it closed but I guess the money went elsewhere. It's amazing what a snappy brand name can do and MFP came out on top. SparkPeople felt more social - so it's good to have this Challenge and the upcoming Teams as a focus.1
