    Sorry team - but could have been a lot worse! Hoping it will come off pretty quickly - over my limit every day on vacation and the sodium was off the charts. But - I did log everything - they were estimates but I logged.

    Good morning! I also recommend going back to the first page of this thread and reading the initial post. It will give you a lot of great information! :)

    Good morning. I have come down with some kind of virus. My throat is so sore. Yesterday I had nothing but water, NyQuil and throat lozengers. I had to cancel my bingo with friends last night. My weight is .2 different than last week. I am basically maintaining but I still would like to get to the 140’s.

    @Megan_smartiepants1970 I will be thinking about you. Hope all goes well this morning, my friend <3 Hello to her daughter @lauren_989 I will be looking forward to her update.

    @carrieneary71 I am very proud of you for still pushing through and going on those walks even with having a bad shoulder. I am sorry to hear about that.

    @scandiao Welcome to the group!

    Keep pushing to those who maintained weight this past week. Every little choice everyday pays off. I have learned :) Never give up <3

    Mom just got home, it was a 5 hour surgery. She has 2 plates on each side with 4 screws and 2 rods on both sides of her leg. She is completely out of it

    @Megan_smartiepants1970 I am glad your surgery went well, keep resting, healing and you are in my thoughts and prayers! Thank your daughter for her/your update.

    I have been updating everyone's weights and steps, so keep the info coming! Everyone is doing great!

    @lindamtuck2018 I hope you feel better soon!

    @iLive2Walk I hope you had fun on your vacation. That is great that you tracked, and it is understandable your weigh is up slightly if your sodium was up. The water weight should come back off if you get back to your normal habits.

    Good morning! It’s a lovely day here. It’s not hot and humid so we have the windows open. I actually logged yesterday. I have been so hit and miss about it. Going to do some walking in the apartment. While I am not 100%, I have no excuse not to move at all.

    Yesterday’s good news: I have a new surgery date. July 31st. I am hoping this date doesn’t get changed and we can finally book a trip to Newfoundland to see our parents. .
