    I am about to start adding people to the May step challenge ... If anyone wants to be removed, added etc please let me know ... If you want to be added to the step challenge please give me a step pledge that you plan to hit daily ..Thank you :)

    @Megan_smartiepants1970 I'll be in next month. My step goal is 120K a week, so let's say 17K a day; may be over some days and under others; but that a good number.

    You are all ready to start in May... I changed your step goal :):)

    We actually start April 28 and go to 5/4 for the 1st week of May ... We always start on a Sunday and end on a Saturday

    I am gonna bough out for a while. I just have too much much going on. I have told you all about what it takes out me to care for my MIL but what I haven’t let on to is that I have been awaiting results of bladder biopsies taken almost two weeks ago. I had an appointment yesterday and was given the unfortunate news that I have bladder cancer. We are now discussing the difficult decisions regarding my MIL and the need that I have to take care of myself. I will be cheering you all on from the sidelines until I feel that I can return!!

    I am so sorry to hear this. I wish you the best in the difficult decisions you are facing. Let us know how you are doing when you can. Hugs.

    Steps:
    April 21st: 5,272
    April 22nd: 5,302
    April 23rd: 4,543
    April 24th; 4,160
    April 25th: 5,383
    April 26th: 4,645

    The headache wasn’t from the weather by the afternoon I had a sore throat. Probably just a spring cold. I am sure I just got run down from not sleeping properly. Better now than when I am gettIng my surgery. Don’t want that to get delayed. Anyway, I am going to try for a walk if the weather clears up. It is warm outside. I will do some apartment walking if the rain doesn’t stop.

    As for my favourite tv shows: I am a reality show junky so big brother Canada, survivor, Next Level Chef, the challenge, Canada’s got talent and the voice are all shows I am watching. I am behind on several so no spoilers. I watch Greys, Station 19 and all the Chicago series (fire,pd and med). Of course, I am behind on these. My new favourite shows are fire country (2nd season) and Tracker. If I had to pick a favourite I would probably say big brother for reality and Fire country for regular tv. I got to get caught up as my pvr is getting full.

    @Megan_smartiepants1970
    You would get along my husband. He loves any show to do with crime. I am not a big fan of these type shows. I will watch Joe Kenda if a rerun is on but that’s about it.

    @itladyee
    You should have seeing me try to do tic toc dances with my granddaughter. It’s like going through childhood again when you have grandkids. I am about to enter the preteen years. 😂

    Weigh in day: Saturday

    So glad to see even a small loss! Two birthdays and a graduation down. One birthday, Mother’s Day, and one work social event to go in the next few weeks. And work is pressing me hard right now! Much more sitting, less stepping, no trips to the gym, less sleeping, considerable stressing, and wacky eating - like leftover birthday cake for breakfast!

    On a happy note, at the above mentioned grad I wore a pair of fitted dress pants (part of the gift I packaged when we did the Christmas weight loss challenge - Thank you,@Slimmersixties!) and a short jacket. The short jacket is the real progress part - For years I have hidden within long, loose cardigans -black in winter, white in summer. For me, being comfortable enough to wear short and fitted was part of the celebration!
