Weight No More Team Chat - March 2025

sorry my steps sucked last week. Sunday I forgot to wear my watch and then I didn’t know it had died for mon and Tues. My back has been bothering so much I have been wearing a brace and added on more meds. I really didn’t want to but I’m in so much and I have a pretty high tolerance. We booked our 30th anniversary trip to Aruba in April. Not sure how I’m going to do much but as long as I’m away it’s ok. I would love to be able to start walking again but that will have to wait a bit. I do yoga twice a week. I am easing myself into because I don’t like it.

I am so annoyed with myself! I had a very stressful week and wasn't tracking anything.
My daughter had her hospital appointment on Thursday, I have been worried over it for weeks and work has been awkward giving me a couple of hours off to take her to the hospital. My daughter is 13, has done ballet and ice skating for years and absolutely love both, we thought she might be told she would have to stop. It actually was a much better news than we were expecting, she doesn't need surgery and can keep being active within reason (still no jump, pointe shoes or running) although the trauma doctor said it might take another 18month before her ankles are back to normal.

sorry I’m a day late but I waited a day because I knew it wouldn’t be accurate. I want out to dinner on Thursday with my Granddaughters. We had burgers, fries & ice cream. No regrets. We had so much fun! 💕

Kudos to top of the leaderboard, @Emilienewme for most steps in one day--exceeding 20K! And look at that shake up! @purple1butterfly was Most Consistent! And of course, bolded members have a step goal and reached it!
The steps team walked more that onne and a quarter MILLION steps in February! That is more than 550 miles! What a great achievement!
* Members did not complete the month but had enough posted to deserve recognition!

Just post your steps by the end of Wendnesday after the week ends. I'm flexible and might wait a day or two for you. If we're 'friends', I may drop a personal note to you to check in. If we aren't, and you'd like a personal note, send me (melaniedscott) a friend request.
Part of the challenge or new and want to add or update a goal?
If you want to... be bold (heehee), let us know how many steps you want to hit every day on average and we'll keep track of it for you!

@melaniedscott - Same, MFP should go back to BBCode, at least it was consistent

@JenSamuel94 - Better late than never! As for struggling with weight, you are not alone. Is there anything in particular that you struggle with? Food? Self control? Exercise? Sleep? Lots of different variables are involved.

Honestly I’m unsure. I haven’t been working consistently (PRN) so I don’t get enough steps. I could be more active- I’m striving for 5000 steps a day but sometimes that’s hard for me. As for food, I eat pretty healthy but I think I have issues with portion control? Or eat too many snacks esp when coming home from work or when I’m stressed. I also have PCOS so maybe my metabolism is a little slow from that…. Ugh.

@JenSamuel94 - I mean, you only had a gain of 0.2 pounds, which is really just a maintain for the week. It could be that your body is holding onto water for a million potential reasons.
@jennyell85 - Great loss!

Update on Me…
I accidentally ate something I shouldn't have on Sunday, and food poisoning followed. Upset stomach, inability to stay sleep, dizziness, all that fun stuff. About 18 hours after consuming the hazardous lunch, I found myself waking up from sleep to… erm… evacuate the way it came in. The next day was rough, my body temperature fluctuated wildly and I was wary to eat anything with flavor, so I ended up eating a handful of crackers, some pasta, and shredded chicken. So, two days straight of not consuming nearly enough food.
This morning, I'm feeling mostly better, although there have been a few concerning dizzy spells that led me to skipping my workout - I am hoping my body stabilizes before I have to coach two classes this evening.
One unfortunate thought that ran through my head was "At least I'll lose some weight this way". When I weighed myself this morning, that was proven to be true. Not that I expect the loss to stick around, especially since I anticipate quite a bit of water retention while my body attempts to rehydrate.
But yeah, fun times. Drink your water, folks. And pay attention to how long you've held onto leftovers.

@minstrelofsarcasm - hope you're feeling better. I have to admit, when I do get ill like that I can't help but think of Emily in the Devil Wears Prada film, saying, "I'm just one stomach flu away from my ideal weight." Terrible thing to focus on, but hey sometimes you need to try and think of a silver lining 😆
I had a blip on Sunday and Monday morning scales shot up 3 pounds overnight. Which I know is not accurate but still wasn't nice to see. Hence I'm a bit late with weigh in as hoping it has balanced itself out by tomorrow! I will take a gain if I have to, but I know it shouldn't be that much.
