I’ve decided this group. I’m not achieving my goals and I am feeling even more disappointment when I bring the teams stats down. Good luck to you all.

@AB0215 I’ve decided to leave the group. You can remove me from the October spreadsheet

Daily Update - September 20, 2022 Track - yes Calories- under if I count exercise calories Exercise- elliptical - 20 mins and 5333 steps. Comments - I was “snacky” today but feel like I made a good choice of peanuts (better than what I could have chosen). I don’t like to have too many snacks with me at work because I’m…

Daily Update - September 18, 2022 Track - yes Calories- under Exercise- elliptical, 4723 steps so far Comments - Hope everyone has a great week!

Daily Update - September 16, 2022 Track - yes Calories- under Exercise- none Comments - I have every other Friday off and my husband went fishing yesterday so I had plenty of time to think about how to achieve my goals and what’s been holding me back because I’ve made no progress all summer. Bottom line is I’m lazy and…

Wow! 30 HOURS! Very impressive and I hope it helps you achieve your goals. My husband and I are watching the series “Alone” (reality show about contestants left to survive on their own in the wilderness). We joke that I wouldn’t make it past lunch. :D

The rough week did me in. I’m definitely not helping the team or myself lately. User: pkg1998 Previous: 260.4 Current: 262.0

Daily Update - September 15, 2022 Track - no Calories - probably over Exercise - none Comments - glad this week is over. Ready to get back into my normal routine

Daily Update - September 14, 2022 Track - yes Calories - slightly above goal without exercise calories (I was riding in a car most of the day so I can’t count that as exercise even though Fitbit gives me steps :D ) Thanks for the input on my last question. Exercise - none Comments - no lunch yesterday because we didn’t…

Daily Update - September 13, 2022 Track - yes Under - question - do you count your exercise calories? I have my Fitbit synced with MFP. If I count my unintentional exercise (did a lot of walking yesterday) then under calories but still above my set goal for the day. Just curious how others look at it. Exercise - nothing…

@looneycatblue sorry you weren’t feeling well but sometimes the body just needs a break. Glad things are looking up for you.

Daily Update - September 12, 2022 Track - yes Under - nope Exercise - 15 mins elliptical before getting into the car for 6 hours Comments - need to learn how to network at this work conference without over-indulging on food and alcohol.

@frankwbrown - love how “no walk today” still turns into 12k+ steps :D @pauletzl - another inspirational quote. I’m going to run out of room on my bulletin board.

Ready to start another week with some emphasis on tracking all week. I’m going out of town for work for a few days and I will be eating out every meal! I usually do really bad with tracking in these circumstances but I’m going to try to take a few minutes every morning to log the previous day. There are usually later than…

User: pkg1998 Previous: 260.0 Current: 260.4 Sorry guys it’s been a rough week with not a lot of motivation or support.

You are doing great! Really an inspiration for what can be achieved with some dedication.

Daily Update - September 8, 2022 Track: yes Calories: over Exercise: Steps - 5739 Comments: Another day of eating over calorie goal. I’m not sure why I can’t get back into the mode of sticking to my plan for the week. It’s so much “easier” to get take out rather than cooking but it’s also stupid because I really enjoy…

@Krysless2 It’s actually goals and inspiration to remind me why I get up at 4:20 every morning. It’s definitely a work in progress. My health is the main reason I am trying to lose weight.

Daily Update - September 6, 2022 Track: yes Calories: almost but not quite Exercise: Elliptical - 15 mins, Steps - 3908 I’ve decided to start entering my steps. I find if I move more during the day then I feel better overall. I need some motivation to get out of my office occasionally.

Daily Update - September 5, 2022 Track: no Calories: over I’m sure Exercise: nothing Wow! My lazy week last week was followed by a completely lazy weekend. My college aged daughter came into town and we did some shopping each day but other than that it was nothing but eating and sitting on my butt watching TV. Very…

Great week!

@pauletzl This is very odd because I have a iPhone and couldn’t get the photo to load (waited 5 minutes) but tried it on my iPad and it showed up immediately. Not sure why the phone didn’t work. Photo of my Oliver from 7 years ago. His birthday was last Sunday. <3

Daily Update - Wednesday, 8/31/22 Track: yes Calories: under Exercise: walk at work 15 mins Getting better at being back on track with food but for some reason feeling lazy this week. I normally get up at 4:20am to get my exercise and “me” time in before work but I’ve been struggling getting out of bed. I have a 4 day…

Daily Update - Tuesday, 8/30/22 Track: yes Calories: way over Exercise: none intentional My husband went out of town unexpectedly yesterday and, for some reason, that always throws my plans out the window. Don't want to cook and just want to eat all the junk! This week has not started off well at all. Goal for today is to…

Welcome to another September baby - we are some of the best :D . Good luck and if there is anything we can do to help you with your goal, let us know.

May seem strange, but we should be posting on the September discussion now. The challenge for September actually started this week. :)

Daily Update - Monday, 8/29/22 Track: yes Calories: way over Exercise: elliptical 15 mins, walk 15 mins

Good Morning! First I’d like to welcome our new members - @tslose and @pauletzl - glad you are with us. We’d love to get to know you better and would like to know what you hope to get from the group so we can support you anyway we can. I am Pam (another co-captain). I am almost 52 (Friday - Happy early Birthday to me). I…

I still don't have access to the spreadsheet. Can someone update the weights for Belly Flats please?

Friday, August 26 User: pkg1998 Previous: 262.4 Current: 261.2 Not what I wanted for this week but that’s what a couple of bad days will do. Positive for this week was my weekend when I did not gain so I’m going to take that as a win and build on it this week.
