I’m pleased about this week. Although I’ve been here before. I think the last year has been about doing and undoing the same 10 pounds. Time to snap out of it and just get it done!
Off for a hike today so I won’t go to bed guilty tonight

@ micaroo4 It’s raining here, I’m missing the warm weather (so are my tomatoes!).
@trooworld How was the party last night? I hope the strawberry mint does well I really think you’ll like it.
@Teresa2024 I’m glad you found something you can do with your wrist, I think seeing the doctor is a smart call.
@megnolia82 Have a great hike today!
Hi team! Coming on a bit early as I didn’t come on yesterday. The Easter Baskets for kids went great and the seed swap was a lot of fun. For the farm and garden club portion of yesterday at the library a 15-year-old who grows giant pumpkins did a talk, he loves robotics too so it was pretty fascinating (he has a fertilizer watering system called the Fertilizer Injector). I brought home too many seeds but I left about 100 packs. I talked to someone who brought asparagus plants to share and some woman walked off with 15 plants, I was so surprised I didn't say anything but I really wanted a couple. I went to my neighbor’s for a drink last night but was so tired I only stayed for a short time. I ended up eating too many pretzels last night, gotta go back to not having snacks in the house. I’m planning on cleaning and homework today and maybe some seed starting and possibly dinner at my next-door neighbor's house. Have a great Sunday!

@Jactop - Way to go!
@micaroo4 - Unintentional loss but still in your range. It's good that you made the adjustment though. I'm trying to pickup on that way of thinking. I did an extra workout to accommodate for a day out.
@tammymccrady6278 <Hugs>
@865jessica - Another loss this week. You're making great progress.
@trooworld - That's so cool your self portrait will be displayed in an art show. I hope you had fun at the fundraiser.
@19shmoo69 - Very impressive loss this week. Congrats!
@TeresaW2024 - I hope you figure out whats wrong with your wrist and it starts feeling better soon. That's great that you found a workout that wont affect your wrist.
@megnolia82 - Nice loss this week. I hope you enjoy your hike.
@Katmary71- I planted asparagus in my garden a couple years ago. They grew back last year. I'm hoping they come up this year too. I have friends that go asparagus and mushroom hunting. I enjoy hunting for morels. We find them on our property after rain and a few 60 degree days.
@vrafer - Awesome job!
Welcome to the group @Divya365 !
Well...I finished the week strong. I just did my exercises, even with my husband home. It's such a small house, there's no where for him to go but outside or sit in the room with me jumping around in front of him...lol.💪 Mission Slimpossible Strong!💪

Hello ladies and gents! It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been on. Tho ha have been so busy lately and I notice I do t get on here as much as when things are slower. It’s spring break now around here and I took the week off. Heading on a couple day trip a few hours away. Hubby just finished his 2nd bout of Covid and both kids have colds amd sore throats. Im the only one not sick (yet) but I find when I am really busy, my body doesn’t stop for sick. So now that its holidays, I’ll likely catch something
I have been absolutely horrible lately and not tracking a thing. I feel ashamed of my gain. Being on a trip there will be lots of eating out, but I’ll try to make some healthy choices. Wish me luck for the next week.
Reading over past posts, sorry for those who are mourning the loss of a loved one. Hugs to all of you!3 -

WEIGH IN UPDATES
WEIGH INS NEEDED TODAY: @littlebabekitty !vegan4lyfe2012 @Veta2018 @laurelfit57
TOMORROW REMINDERS: @AmbersWay @AustinRuadhain @Jactop
@sleepygirl79 I’m letting you do this once and that’s it, I’m sorry but it takes me extra time on here when I have to stop to close everything which is the weigh in spreadsheet, the word document I'm using to reply to everyone, and this group window and go report people not weighing in the captain’s thread (this IS the difference between me staying on as captain as I’m in this group for up to 90 minutes a day plus doing weigh ins alone especially on weekends when more people weigh in. I don’t have more time to give here.) and having a bad week or not feeling like it with an entire team weighing in really isn’t fair to us as captains. I’m sympathetic you had a bad week and get not wanting to but I went through this recently with another member and if I let it go it’s not fair to her and other team members. Next time you can use your last weigh-in, just weigh in, or be penalized for not weighing in going forward. Have fun on the trips and do good this week, you got this!
@Divya365 Welcome to Mission Slimpossibles, were happy you're here!
@Veta2018 I hope your asparagus comes up too! How fun to go hunting for asparagus and mushrooms, I didn’t know you could do that for asparagus to be honest. You’re doing great!
@19shmoo69 @vegan4lyfe2012 @askewcr @AustinRuadhain Congratulations to our top winners this week!
Hi team, been cleaning all day and have the tub ready so this is a fast one. Got in a good workout, made the skinnytaste black bean sweet potato bowl for dinner, and got some homework done so it’s been a good day. I got into pretzels last night and did not stop at one serving darnit. I’m starting some more seeds after the tub and hoping to read a bit before bed as I've had no time to do it lately. Have a great Sunday night and wonderful Monday, let’s go into the new week strong!

@19shmoo69 Congrats on being the top dog! @vegan4lyfe2012 @askewcr @AustinRuadhain yay for making it onto the leaderboard!
@vrafer Congrats on the loss!
@TeresaW2024 You are zooming through that huge puzzle, wow. I'm sorry your wrist isn't getting better. I hope the orthopedic doctor helps. Oh that's great you found a workout program that can work for you.
@megnolia82 Congrats! I hope you enjoyed the hike.
@Katmary71 Some parts (the dancing) were fun but there were really boring speeches for 3 hours during the dinner portion.
We sat at a table with nice people, one of them I actually knew from being an ex girlfriend of a friend. I hope the strawberry mint sprouts, too, I looked it up and it looks interesting. I didn't come on yesterday, I was so tired and a bit hungover lol. I'm glad the Easter baskets went well and you had fun with the seed swap, which were your favorite seeds you got? That's too bad about the asparagus plants. Sounds like you need to dump the pretzels, eh?
@Divya365 Welcome to the team! Nice to "meet" you!
@Veta2018 Thank you! I did have fun. Yay for finishing the week strong!
@sleepygirl79 Sorry everyone is sick, I hope you can avoid it. Good luck next week.
Hi all. The event Saturday night was a mixed bag: we had to sit through 3 hours of speeches throughout dinner before we got to the fun dancing part. I occupied my time by drinking free wine lol. I drank too much wine, I felt it yesterday which is why I didn't come on here. I wasn't feeling that well + I didn't sleep much so I was tired. Yesterday, it rained but I thought it had stopped so we drove 45 mins into the mountains to a doggie's sweet 16 party (turned 16 years old). It started raining on the way up there, unfortunately. When we got there, it was cold and windy. I wasn't dressed warm enough. We only stayed 5 minutes because we brought both dogs and Violet was barking at people and it embarrassed us and we didn't want to disrupt the party. So, we drove 45 mins back home lol. Got home and I laid on the couch and napped. Here are some pics from Saturday night.

@Divya365 - Hello, my friend! How fun that you were put on the same team as me!
@trooworld - 3 freaking HOURS?!? I would not have been able to sit for that long. Kudos to you! Love your outfit - you look so sassy! Sorry Violet embarrassed you. Kids! Amirite!?!
I am still sick, but my throat feels a little better. I came in to work because I have payroll and other necessities that have to get done. I was hoping my boss would tell me to leave after I finished, but alas...nope. He just said he was steering clear of me because he leaves on vacation on Wednesday.
To those of you that I send random cards to, I just got caught up with my family Easter cards. I'll get working on the ones for all y'all, but they might be a tad late. But HOLY WEEK are they ever GORGEOUS! Yes, I'm tooting my own horn
I hope everyone is able to stick to their plans today. I brought such a random assortment of food to work today... salad, steamed potato, rice, spinach, some of the soup Hunter made me on Friday. But I think I'll make a cup of oatmeal first. Oh - and I'm on day 93 of no soda. When should I stop counting?

@Katmary71 That 15-year-old kid is interesting and very bright! Giant pumpkins are fun! That was so rude of that person to take 15 plants. What is wrong with this self-entitled mentality these days? At least you know how to grow asparagus.
@Veta2018, you need to get your husband up to do those exercises with you!
@trooworld Your pictures of you at the event are great. I love those earrings!! Girl, if I had free wine, I would be drinking too much of it too. That was a bummer that the dog party didn’t work out. Do your dogs like being in a car?
@vegan4lyfe2012 I hope you start feeling better soon! Your boss should have let you go home. I am looking forward to my card! Everything you create is beautiful.
Good morning! Well, yesterday was a bust! After I wrote to you all that we were going to church, Joe went into the bathroom and passed out. Actually, it was amazing because he had been holding onto the door jab for dear life and had managed to call my name. I had to get him to the floor because he wasn’t alert enough to walk, and then I made him crawl to the bedroom. After that, he was pretty much useless the rest of the day, so we just stayed home so he could rest. He is better today, and with his family coming this weekend, he better stay that way!
I did a 15-minute rebounder workout, and I love this woman I found on YouTube. I'm off to clean!

Checking in.
Not a great eating weekend.
Can't say I'm not a little bit disappointed that I didn't chart with my loss from last week, but I understand how ratios work and why.
I was really hoping to keep my weight loss slower even than that because I worry I'm already getting a little bit of dysmorphia regarding my body image/weight as it concerns my effort in the gym and at eating. It's weird, and I don't like it.
I'll keep on trucking through, just having weird feelings.3 -
I have to admit I had to reread the post that @Katmary71 made. I reread it a few times. With that said I agree. If your having a bad day, days or week you need to share the weigh in. Believe it or not there is an encouragement there. Others that are struggling may see that they're not alone in the struggle. Or they may be able to give the encouragement you need. That is the whole point of these groups. It's to encourage each other in the UPS and DOWNS.
I know personally I've posted 10 pound gains before. At one time it was gain 5 lose 4 gain 10 lose 2 gain 10. So many were there throwing positivity my way. The same can and will happen to you if and when the weigh in is posted.
Hope that makes sense.5 -
Monday Weigh-in

SW 223.1

CW: 210.6
I am sorry to have let the team down this week. Last week (spring break stuff) got away from me. Ah, well, Back at it! With @19shmoo69's great post right above me, here I am posting an in-the-red weigh-in. As he says, this is a long game!
On the plus side, I went trail riding on Saturday. I had not been on a horse in years, and it was delightful, even with a horse that I had never met before! I could only do it because I have been at work with the group and met the weight limit for the available horse. So woohoo for that!
We went riding in the blackland prairie of central Texas, an area that was the continental coastline 250 million years ago. It still feels like coastline there. Geology is amazing! Also flora and fauna. @micaroo4 -- I saw my first cardinal of the year! 🐦
So-- back to work! Here's today's plan:
Monday Plan
🟢 Tiny Habit: Kitchen pushup so far, I have done 2!
⚪ Floors: 5 so far, I have done 3!
🟢 Eat a salad! lunch was spring greens, a kiwi, strawberries & garbanzo beans
Eat steamed greens
45 minutes exercise
Track all my food and check out at day's end3 -
