@minstrelofsarcasm I’ll be away this weekend, so I need a “pass” for my weigh in this Saturday. Thanks

@daria0919 - You got it, have a great weekend!

@minstrelofsarcasm Can I be excused for weighin this week? Completely forgot to weigh myself before leaving for work. We’re on day 3 of no power since big storms hit NE Ohio so eating well and weighing in haven’t been high on the priority list 😂 we threw all our food away last night since garbage pickup should be this morning. Have been eating a lot of quick food and takeout since we can’t keep anything cold.
I have been able to make it to the gym 2 out of the 3 days since they do have power, feel good about that lol

@andja87 - Absolutely, sorry to hear that your power is out! I've been really lucky to be connected to Downtown Cleveland's backup grid, so I have power and internet (my boyfriend does not, so he's been crashing at my place the past few days so he can get work done, and be able to see while he takes a shower, and eat warm food, etc.). It's a good thing your gym has power - my personal gym has electricity and I'm forever grateful, Spenga has been spotty at best so I haven't been able to coach any classes since Tuesday at noon.

I am having a week. I precipitously posted this twice (incorrect both times) when trying to post other things...
If you looked at this and wondered what * or ♤ meant...
Some numbers housekeeping: And now...(drum roll, please!) the end of month wrap up:
In July, our walking team broke 2.5 MILLION steps! That is some serious stepping!

Big shout out to @Jensmakingprogress for being 'Most Consistent' four out of five weeks in July AND being runner up on the other week. Incredible consistency!

The following walkers broke 20K steps in one day one or more weeks this month:
@Emilienewme
@mnsmov15
@OllieAndEd2021

Two walkers came within 1K steps of joining the 20K group and deserve an honorable mention as well...

@annliz23

Our bolded members set a step goal for the week and met it! What kind of hoal do we want for August? We're a week in....

If you want to join the challenge for August: Part of the challenge or new and want to add or update a goal? For anyone confused about where we are ...
edit if you've been reading this as I've edited, corrected...sorry. My biggest thing is hitting Y instead of T, which is funny because in old English, sometimes T was written as Y. But not very funny...mostly irritating.

oh @andja87 that sounds horrible, I hope things are better now.

The August Week 2 Group Challenge is open and ready to begin on Sunday, Aug 11th, so please join us for the Stress-Free Me Challenge! Here's your link:

Starting weight: 81.7 kg/180.12 lb
Previous weight: 78.4 kg/172.84 lb
Current weight: 77 kg/169.76 lb

Made it home last night from my trip to Canada. It was great seeing my family and friends. I am definitely going to have to detox. We usually go for 2 weeks but this year we only went for 9 days because I am going to Puerto Rico in October. I am still off tomorrow. So I have 2 days to start organizing myself. I think I will do something with my husband though because he didn’t come away with us. My son and granddaughter moved out while I was gone, so sad after 4 1/2 years. They still have stuff here and both kids and all grandkids were in and out all week while I was gone so my husband was ok but my house is a little turned upside down. So time for cleaning, walking, food shopping, and picking up some things for my son’s new place. I hope weigh in day isn’t going to be too bad this week.

Glad you had a lovely trio to Canada @ljdanny I'm sure you're glad to be back to face all that clearing up
