    Happy Friday everyone! I’m happy to say this is the first time since pre-COVID that I’m under (just barely) 140lbs. Officially about 15 lbs more to lose so I’m feeling pretty good about it. Have a good weekend!

    Congrats!! That’s wonderful!

    We exceeded a quarter million steps this week...2 million for the month seems like good goal.

    Is anyone else feeling like this?

    My WNM weigh-in is in a few hours and I'm not looking forward to the reality of it.

    I've lost my way. Is it because winter is coming and, naturally, my body is preparing? Is it because of the change in seasons and, especially this year, it's later than usual? Is because I'm just a lazy so-and-so?

    I know that my workload has increased over the past 5-6 weeks. Perhaps that's a major factor. I know that I've slumped since my holiday, which also contributes to my inactivity. I know that I'm craving sweeter snacks, is that a 'winter is coming' thing, most probably? Do like it? No!!! Can I change it? Yes!!! But, I still need you guys for support and I need my inner mojo to make sure that I go for it.

    If I'm a little absent, sorry, if I'm a little needy of your support, I apologise 💓💞💗

    Me too - except it’s lasted longer than the winter. 😭 (For me, it was perimenopause, and it’s been 2-3 years!) Good luck! Hope you get your mojo back soon.

    I’m so sorry, Daria. Cancer is the worst. I can’t imagine losing a child.

    Steps last week. Missed some steps on the Fitbit because I had my Garmin watch on for a couple of walk/runs. Oh well…

    Lost that same pound again that I gained last week, so I'll take it. Hopefully I can do better this week and lose another pound rather than staying the same or going back up again. I want to get far away from 230's!

    Good Morning my friends... So thank you all for your suggestions as to the upper body workouts!! In meantime, this last week has flown by - and I am still trying to understand that we're already halfway done with October!! In meantime, logging my food has since been easier, I've been trying new recipes, and for now being super conscious as to my calorie count. I've also started making sure to weigh/measure most everything I eat. I know a lot of people aren't always agreeable to this, especially since it takes time and effort. I've also started with the meal prepping - so that way I don't have to "wonder" what I am going to eat - or if I get lazy there's no mad dash for fast food. I actually went out to eat this weekend - and was mindful of what I ate and the portion sizing... I forget how restaurants' portion sizes are sooo out of whack!! I do hope to get some small walks in this week... moving slow but still moving.. :wink:
