Weight No More Team Chat - OCTOBER 2023

I’m just -off- this week. I haven’t been out for as many walks. My schedule has been wonky this week. My macros have been all over the place. I typically don’t drink during the week, and I had a drink Monday & Tuesday. I ate after 8pm (all carbs of course). My caloric intake has been a good 200-500 higher than my BMR. I will be lucky if I manage to lose this week. 😥 The only thing I did right was keeping my protein above 100gr and my fiber above 25gr every day along with weightlifting 3x/week. (It’s a class I take with my daughter so that helps.)
I need to get my act together!

Friday weigh-in
PW: 157.9
CW: 157.7
Slowing inching down, about 1.7 lbs over the past 4 weeks.
I'll take it but, even better than the weight loss, I had my annual physical yesterday and my test results were great! My LDL and total cholesterol both dropped by another 19 points and my blood sugar level dropped by another 6 points. A1C is now below pre-diabetic range and all my results were normal. My PA was thrilled with my progress.3 -

OMG. Ec-static. This challenge is showing me that I generally give up on diets too early (typically by the 2nd-3rd week) and have usually focused too much on calories and cardio and not on eating the right things and building muscle. I’m happy to have found something that seems to be working for me. I’m within sight of my Oct goal!6 -

If you are thinking those numbers look better than last week's post but say they're worse...well, that's because I added a late post, which shot last week up a bit...so it isn't that big a change. Our bolded walkers hit their goals!
What a great group of walkers! Well done!
We exceeded a quarter million steps this week AGAIN...We're not quite at million and half way. Can we make it to 2M?

My overall mood was better this week than last week. I didn’t feel like I struggled with sugar cravings as much as I had been struggling in previous weeks. I want to try to add more exercise days during my week and increase my steps. I am more motivated because I’m noticing changes in how my clothes are fitting more loosely.3 -

Well those steps are better than many weeks. A couple guestimates added. Monday, I did training and walked around the training room all day sans step counter and yesterday I left my phone in the car when I stopped in the middle of nowhere and walked...a quarter mile... to take some pictures and then back to the car.
I joined a gym last week (just Planet fitness, not a lot of options)and only made it in twice6 -

Kind of surprised with this loss because I've been on the dreadful curse of the month, but I'm happy with it because I'm so close to getting out of the 230's!4 -
Hey Folks! A couple quick notes before I throw together the results post for the past week -
The following are on the drop list and will be removed from the team at the end of the month due to two weeks in a row without a weigh-in:
@JessicaVRosati
@Steppin_Kate
@lucyvclark5243
@deanpem
@3tansunnee
If you would like to remain on the team, please please please post an update, even if that's requesting to be excused for a week, being moved to the support team temporarily, etc. We would rather you stick with us in a lesser capacity than not stick with us at all.
Also, some of you have been regularly posting on days that are not your weigh-day. If you need to shift your weigh-day to another day, let us know! Posting early/late every once in a while is fine, but doing it regularly may lead to me bothering you more often.
And lastly, the following did not weigh in last week. If you need to be excused for last week, say something! Not weighing in this week may result in you being added to the droplist and removed from the team at the end of the month.
