    @iLive2Walk great steppin’ and way to stay engaged and consistent with your daily check ins👍 glad you were able to get the boat ready. Bring on boating season! Hope your vegetable garden brings lots of bounty! Love grocery shopping in the back yard💚

    @lindamtuck2018 sorry you’re going through a stressful patch. Hope it eases up soon. It’s hard not to revert to some old habits when under stress so try to give yourself some grace. Maybe try to focus on one or two little things that will benefit physically or mentally. Fingers crossed your surgery is a go in June🤞

    @megan_smartiepants1970 not on here daily so I miss most of your questions. I do read them when I’m playing catchup but feel weird answering so late. One suggestion is maybe say every Monday have a nutrition related question and every Wednesday a fitness related question. Just a thought. Thanks for all your hard work and contributions to the team. I know it takes a lot to be captain💜

    @slimmersixties thanks for adding me to the summer challenge! Plan to really step it up in June. Good luck all who are participating ☘️

    @ITladyee so awesome your new home will have a dedicated gym space. If we ever build that’s at the top of my wish list - finished basement for gym. Hope your home gym will keep you motivated. You’ve made so much progress and make exercise an essential part of your day so I really don’t think you’ll have any problems sticking to it. Maybe add some motivational wall art or sayings. I added some a couple months ago so I wasn’t just staring at a beige wall. I still read them daily as reminders.

    Nutrition is the harder part in my opinion but they say it’s a bigger part of the equation. I just love cooking and eating too much🙃

    @jamieS74 @stacimfit @iLive2Walk Sorry so many toxic people you’ve had to deal with. Sounds like your situations made each of you stronger and now in a better place. Way to be resilient and persevere!💪

    @stacimfit way to go starting HIIT how’s it going? Is it in person or online? How are your legs feeling? I usually have to modify moves if I do a video but still get like that the second day. Makes it torture getting up and down stairs and going to the bathroom lol funny not funny😜

    @NachDeezy Happy Belated birthday 🥳 you’ve given yourself the best gift💕 so happy you’re in a much better place this year! Wishing you an amazing year full of new milestones and adventures 🎉

    @jimboden3 feeling you with the lack of sleep. Hope you can ease your mind to get some good zzzz’s soon. Hoping for a smooth transition for your parents living situation. I’m sure it’s difficult but a blessing they can plan and have the means to come to this decision themselves. Hugs❣️

    @RoblinB hope your work situation eases up soon and you can find your work/life/health balance back soon. I know for me it seems food choices and portions are always the first out the window when dealing with work stress. Try to focus on one or two things even tiny things that will help you move towards a healthier you. Glad you’re still getting your walks in. Definite plus! Fingers crossed June is a little more relaxed and balanced🤞

    @RWillems woohoo awesome drop🤗 definitely a day to remember and be thankful❤️ Hope you and the whole Downsizers team has a safe and meaningful Memorial Day!

    Congrats top 3 team winners! @JamieS74 @myndieet @rwillems

    Sorry if I missed anyone. This is what happens when I have to play catch up. Hope you all have a great week!😘

    Good morning! Looking forward to starting on Sunday. No new surgery date as of yet. Hope soon. It’s pouring here today. It’s good for all the newly planted flower gardens. My husband bought me a rocker for the balcony and I love it. When I have trouble sleeping I go out there and rock. I will post my start weight on Friday.

    Have a great week all!

    What is your favorite exercise ? (thanks for the idea @NouveaRee)

    Mine is walking with my daughter and 2 dogs when not injured ...I see my surgeon on Thursday crossing fingers he has good news but I have a feeling it is not going to be good news since I have pain on top of my foot and near the ankle ...
