    @PatriceFitnessPal That's nice to hear that my pictures help you! I think starting the day with nature is the best thing ever. It really impacts the rest of my day positively when I go for a walk first thing in the morning.

    Good morning!

    My steps for Sunday
    12,319

    Looking forward to a great week! @Pupowl I love the picture of the snail on the flower. I was in my garden yesterday and there was a mommy Monarch flitting from plant to plant laying eggs. Sadly I didn't have my phone with me. :(

    Congratulations to this week’s Shape Shifter leaders! I was especially impressed that our team had the highest percentage of members ‘in the green’ over the last five weeks! 🎉🎉

    So @frankwbrown got me curious. I had downloaded my weight graphs before, and enjoyed the downward trend, but I wanted to see what it looked like today. This is the past year from 8/5/2023 - 8/5/2024. You can clearly see where I went off the rails in July. :(

    Frank, are you premium? Because I could only get the last year.

    What a nice surprise that your blood sugar level dropped @cre804! I hope your implant process goes smoothly.

    @DaffyGirl88 - I have a regular account (not premium) and I’m able to see a chart of my progress since the beginning by selecting the “Since starting weight” option from the Date Range drop down menu. I hope that helps!

    @frankwbrown and @PatriceFitnessPal Let's approach this from another angle. Where are you guys going to get this data? If I go to reports and choose weight I see last 7, 30, 90, 180 days and last year. If I select the Export button the drop down list is greyed out and has a yellow lock on it. Are y'all going to a different place? I see the Franks' chart says "My Weight" but mine just says "Weight". Thanks in advance. :smile:

    On the main menu, I selected ‘Progress’ and then adjusted the measure in the upper right corner to ‘weight’ (rather than steps or body measures). At the bottom of my screen (on my phone), I selected ‘Since starting weight,’ and it shows the graph with an option to export. I didn’t try exporting it but I don’t think you need a premium subscription. A screenshot is another option. I hope it works for you! 🤞

    @PatriceFitnessPal That explains a lot! I am on my computer and there is no "Progress" there. I DO see it when I look at my phone though, thanks for the help!!

    Yes, I do have a premium subscription.
    I wasn't aware of the Progress feature on the phone app. That's nice. A lot simpler than what I did. 🙂
    On my laptop, I went to Reports, selected Export all data, got an email with a link, downloaded a zip file from the link, unzipped the file, imported one of the enclosed files into a Google Sheet, reordered the columns a bit, and finally created a chart in the Google Sheet spanning the date and weight data cells. It is that chart that I titled "My Weight" with a subtitle of "January 2015 to the present".
    Here's what I got in the phone app's Progress "Since Starting Weight":

    I just wanted to pop in and share a photo I took while picking blackberries the other day

    We leave for a short vacation tomorrow morning to the Poconos. Unfortunately it’s supposed to rain the entire time. We’ll make the best of it though.
    Plus I get some US shopping in, I always wonder what crazy and wonderful stuff the Americans have this time.

    Hi @daria0919 ! Thank you so much for popping in the Shape Shifters chat to leave such a nice comment. I really appreciate it. I also like to read all the other F2F groups because I often find helpful posts there and it's just fun to see what everyone is up to. I think I am just in a bit of slump with posting here lately, but I would also like to go back to my regular posts. For now though, the tiny ones will have to do. I also know people are busy and not everyone likes reading long posts, so at least they have some pictures to look at! Much love <3
    @CasandraW Ohhh, I am so envious! I absolutely adore tree frogs even though I have never seen a single one in my life. They are so tiny and cute. I always look when I pass blackberries, but no luck so far. They are pretty rare in the Netherlands sadly, but I will keep looking. Have fun on vacation!

    @JenHul Thanks for sharing the picture! That looks very fun, but yeah, I can imagine it is hard work. I remember a few years ago I got rollerblades because I always enjoyed that as a kid. I just couldn't do it! Not enough leg strength. I also don't believe I am invincible anymore lol, so I was scared to fall even though I had protection on. I will just stick to the 'boring' things like walking. :smiley:

    Finally cool here after WEEKS of around 100, ugh. Been too hot to workout lately. Had a huge storm hit last night. My home was fine but it uprooted trees, knocked over fences, and part of my works roof was ripped off.

    @angmarie28 I need your daily step goal for August please. It was blank on July and we asked but never received a response. Please advise. Thanks!
