    May Month Intro: Yukie_OP
    Hi All, I've been apart of MFP for a few years now. I'm juggling FT work and study (for professional development) with personal/family life (I'm married and have a elementary age daughter plus raising my teenage niece). Re-joined this group around mid-march, the group helps me tremendously in staying accountable.

    I have an upcoming vacation and wedding this month, which has motivated me particularly these past few weeks to increase my daily activity.

    Weigh-in day: Friday
    Highest starting weight - 151 (12/25/2023)
    PW:145.5
    CW:141.0

    Sat 4/27 - No intentional activity / Steps: 4,536
    Sun 4/28 - No intentional activity / Steps: 9,169
    Mon 4/29 - *tonight's plan is full body workout video / Steps: tbd

    Since a new quarter is coming up, here are questions that are a good reflection point as we head halfway into the year by June as well

    @LaurieWrobo How exciting about your job! Sounds great to have more agency and money. I hope it goes well.

    Thank you 😊- it will be less stress on my knees/legs as it takes a few days when I would work to feel OK after being on my feet for 4.5 hours

    My word of the month will be:
    Consistency 😊
    Does anyone have a word of the month that they do for a new reset/start?

    @LaurieWrobo How cool to hear about the pilates ring! I hope it will help you with your workouts. I think you can do a lot with very little gear which is why I love my gym rings. They are so flexible and easy to use.

    The daily card:
    Failure is a state of mind and a judgement we place on ourselves. So is success. Recognize that it takes hard work and effort to succeed, but there will be bumps along the way. Think about a time when you faced failure and understand what you learned from it. Every success or failure has made you the person you are today, so embrace the positives in both.

    @Pupowl I love your bird pictures. And now I'm going to have to investigate those rings also. 🙂

    Yall, I can't wait to get to my new place this week. Idr if I asked to be excused for Monday, May 6th, or not? If not, I do need to be excused as I may not have gotten to where my bathroom scale is packed. I just packed ot last night but it'll take me a few days to get into all the totes and boxes to find it all.

    @Pupowl - how gorgeous to bike along those tree-lined & grassy paths <3

    @Armygirlarmyof1 - new place, how exciting! Enjoy the fresh possibilities and ideas to make it your own.

    @LaurieWrobo - Usually when I do a reset/re-start, the word that comes to mind is FOCUS. This month, my word is: MOVE as I'm trying to make sure i do some kind of activity & move my body on weekdays.

    Grace...we shouldn't be too hard on ourselves when we take a few steps backwards. This one is hard for me because I am my worst enemy with the blame game. I'm trying to give myself a little more grace.

    Great idea @LaurieWrobo !!

    @LaurieWrobo - I’m happy to hear about your new job, which is healthier and less stressful for you. I’m guessing a massage therapist also tries to create a positive work environment for his/ her /their business(es). Congratulations! 🎉

    My word for the year is ‘flourish’ because I’m trying to improve a number of different habits across eight dimensions of wellness. It’s getting easier but change is hard and it’s taking a lot of energy so I’ll pick “sleep” as my word for this month. In order to flourish during the day, I’ll need to balance my mental and physical activity with periods of rest and reflection. Thanks for encouraging us to pause, reflect, adjust, and focus! 🤸🧘‍♀️🤸🧘‍♀️
