I LOVE carrots, even though they make my throat hurt (I can't remember the name of the reason. It's connected to hay fever somehow, which always sounds weird). Coworkers at my last job would ration my carrots because I'd munch on them then complain about a sore throat! :lol:

Welcome to all newcomers and hi again to all returning travelers. :) Round 52 SW 220.8 9/5 / 221.8 / I'm a bit sore today and this is an early weigh in so the bump in weight is completely expected. I think this is going to be a sweet round. I hope everyone is feeling as optimistic as I am!

So busy! 8/26 / 225.4 / Yoinks! 8/27 / 223.8 / End of TOM means good things. 8/28 / 223.6 / Nice! I ate well yesterday. Today there were fries, which is not a Good Idea. 8/29 / 223.6 / Nice to see my Fry Impropriety didn't hurt anything. :) 8/30 / 223.4 / I'm a big fan of this sort of gradual decrease. My digestive system…

I hear you, @jerier. I don't do it for weight loss but to try to stay limber. I have some inflammatory issues that make me stiff and achy if I don't keep myself moving.

Bump!

You can do it, @tiabirdie56 / Tish!

Welcome to all of the newcomers! I love how this challenge is enriched every round by new people leaping into the fray.

Round 50 SW 223.6 8/16 / 224 / I had a lot of salt yesterday, which tasted awfully good.

Noo, @deepwoodslady & @quiltingjaine, I too have marched around the house. There has also been random dancing while brushing my teeth. :smiley:

Hi, everyone! Round 49 SW 224.4 8/6 / 225.4 / Goodness, I'm retaining water like crazy. But I'm eating well and it will all shake out in the end! 8/7 / 223.6 / That's better. As part of another challenge, I did cardio and jumping jacks and drank SO MUCH WATER yesterday. Note to self: Do not drink a lot of water and then do…

I did one of the darebee workouts that didn't go that far, but it was a lot. The HIIT ones with 10 reps are insane.

Welcome, @RosyDanielle and all newcomers!

@quiltingjaine, where are you cruising to/around?

My heart is breaking for you and all Californians. I lived in LA for several years and really loved the state.

I think my last 30 days weight graph is pretty funny. My calories were very consistent, with two over-calorie days and two significantly under calorie days. Lots of exercise throughout.

@abowersgirl, we're here and we're reading! You can do this. Water is deceptive as we drop it or retain it and it looks like weight loss or gain. Stick with it and you'll see how it's just an illusion and one day of less-than-ideal eating is just a blip. Think of it like sitting down for a minute during the marathon! :)

@quiltingjaine, you should see what happens when I Hustle and try to do the turns. There is FLAILING! If it were in a crowd, I'd be bowling people over! I've been doing other line dances, too. I'm terrible, but it's fun.

Thank you! I've had a very busy couple of months, including a work-related last-minute TV appearance a few weeks ago. Never a dull moment! Okay, many dull moments. But still. :)
