Sorry I am very late posting. My grandmother has been very poorly and passed away at the weekend. We had to look for traveling options to be back for the funeral on Saturday and bring forward our holidays. I will be in France for 2 and a half weeks and might not have access to a scale so could I please be excused from the…

Weigh in day Saturday Previous weight 177.2 lbs Current weight 178.1 lbs

My steps for last week Sun 29th 15,454 Mon 30th 13,060 Tue 1st 10,020 Wed 2nd 11,050 Thu 3rd 14,982 Fri 4th 10,043 Sat 5th 24,286

Weigh in day Saturday Previous weight 177.4 Current weight 177.2 I have started sessions with a personal trainer to focus on strength training and it is going really well. She has also readjusted my calories and macro to have more protein so I expect it will be a bit different from a weight loss point of view but I already…

Previous weight 178.5 lbs Current weight 177.4 lbs Sorry I am late posting, I had a crazy week (it's my son's last year in primary school, so lots of extra events, show and things to remember) and it was my daughter's ballet show (rehearsal Thursday, show Friday and all day yesterday, with me chaperoning) Sun 15th 22,611.…

Weigh day Saturday Previous weight 180.1 lbs Current weight 178.5 lbs I am really happy to finally see a shift. I have been consistent logging and trying to stop bad habits as well as exercising more. I had my first personal training session and really enjoyed it. It is out of my price range long term but I will try do do…

@blessedgrandma5 another snack to do on the BBQ: cut slices of pineapple with a drizzle of honey, put them in foil and on the bbq

Previous weight 181.6 Current weight 180.1 So very pleased with that, I tried so hard to avoid food at work and snacking in the evenings @melaniedscott my issues recording steps are sorted (I had to do a factory reset on my mobile so it could connect with my Garmin again) Can I get back on the stepping team please? I am…

Read and understood

I was on Fit Force for the spring challenge so would like the same team if possible, if not any team is good. Thank you

Previous weight 181.6 lbs Current weight 181.6 lbs No loss but also no gain this week. It has been a little bit stressful at work and the weather hasn't been great for exercising outdoors. I am planning to meal prep a few things tomorrow to see if I can get a more balanced lunch

I have ordered the book from my library and hopefully will get it at some point this week I live in the UK so probably won't be able to join a zoom session but I think this is book club is a great idea and the book choice very fitting

@melaniedscott could I please be excused from the step challenge for last week and this week My Garmin is sometimes refusing to synch with my mobile and I am losing my steps / exercise / sleep randomly (my mobile is temperamental) it is so frustrating! On Monday I did a 6km run and 3.5km walk on top of my work steps, but I…

Previous weight 182.9 lbs Current weight 181.6 lbs I don't feel like my weight is moving much at all and it is a bit disheartening but I have been more consistent with tracking and have been exercising more so I am hoping to see some change soon It was May half term here for us and we made the most of the week off to go on…

Previous weight 182.1 Current weight 182.9 I have 1 week off (school holidays) but not much planned so hopefully I can make the most of it and find new healthy recipes to try, have time to go for family walks and a longer run. The weather forecast is looking a bit hit and miss so we'll see

Previous weight 182.9 Current weight 182.1 I have had a very strange week, we have a trainee cook in our kitchen at work, so everything has to be spotless and perfect at all time… it is a bit stressful . My daughter's ankles are getting worse and the hospital doesn't seem to have much of a plan to help except a surgery…

Weigh in day Saturday Current weight: 183.2 lbs I am feeling a little bit discouraged but actually, considering I just had 2 weeks off work (so moving less) and my parents visiting for 10 days (so cooking more) maybe it is not so bad @melaniedscott here are my steps Sun 20th 28,439 Mon 21st 19,815 Tue 22nd 13,863 Wed 23rd…

Weigh in day Saturday Previous weight: 183.2 lbs Current weight : 184 lbs My parents are visiting and staying over for 10 days. I am less active (my dad has a bad knee so walks less now) and probably cooking more so I am just going to try to eat mindfully and hope for the best.

Weigh in day Saturday Previous weight 184.7 lbs Current weight 183.2 lbs It is finally going down! I am now on holidays for 2 weeks, with my parents visiting the second week but I really hope I can stay on track.

@melaniedscott sorry I have been feeling a bit deflated by all the exercise I am doing and not much change on the scales, and I haven't checked the group much.

Hi, this is my first time on this group, if there is space available I would love to be placed on a team. Thank you

Weigh day Friday Current weight 184 lbs I haven't been very focused lately, a lot of stress going on and feeling a bit run down with a sore throat. My husband was away for the week so with no childcare I couldn't go for my usual runs. I tried some weight workouts instead and although I enjoyed it and plan to keep doing…
