@theslightedgeforever Congrats on the loss! And that level of perfection would drive me nuts so I can see why you do it yourself too lol. @TeresaW1020 I do have to get the second shot so I've got that scheduled for early April. I'm excited to get back to normal by late April! I hope you have a great time in your zoom…

@trooworld that shrimp dish looks incredible! But I totally understand that is way too much work for every day! ANd congrats on the loss. How was the BBQ? @TeresaW1020 Holy buckets, 80lbs?! Congratulations!!! That is a fantastic accomplishment @cbabie You were so close to 10k steps!! Did you get there?…
-
@cbabie It sounds like you had an eventful day with all those calls, I hope the call with your one family member went well! Family drama is never fun and I can understand why you ate the sugar cookies @trooworld I didn't get my stimulus yet either but my husband did (go figure). We're going to use it towards new flooring…
-
@cbabie I totally feel that! Mine is that my skin is extremely fair so I can see faint stretch marks any time I gain any weight. It's definitely disconcerting! Great job tracking food and getting your steps in! @trooworld I'm frustrated on your behalf! And at least you wore green! I was the only person on my team who did…
-
@theslightedgeforever Thank you for your kind words! And I agree that this gives me more incentive than ever to stay healthy @trooworld Sorry to hear you're still struggling with sleep. I hope you start to get some rest soon too! Did you ever get to do the sleep clinic? @cbabie Holy steps batman, you did a great job…

@TeresaW1020 Woah diving into Phase 3 after 4 days away?! You're a brave woman. She kicks my butt even in Phase 1! And how exciting that your community is noticing the changes, that must feel great! @trooworld Sorry to hear you didn't sleep well, I hope you get that midday nap. I also laughed that 59 is cold. That is…

So...I was back on track. And then I got the call my Grandpa passed away. These last two weeks have been a whirlwind of funeral planning and grief and trying to dodge covid-exposure. Long story short, it's been awful. My exercise has been okay, but my eating has not been on track and I can feel it. Today I am officially…
-
Hi Everyone! Sorry I went off the grid for a bit. I was having a rough mental health time with exhaustion and overwhelm (work stuff, life stuff, school stuff, the whole 9 yards). I didn't eat the best, but I didn't do the worst either. At the very least I stuck with exercise which was good. I'm hopping back on track today…
-
@theslightedgeforever Would alternating weeks change the barriers that are currently preventing you from following either? And I'm so sorry to hear about your knee, I hope the RICE method helps! @TeresaW1020 I say pick the title you like the most! I hope you have a good first day at the second job! @trooworld oh man I wish…
-
@TeresaW1020 Oh how horrifying! It truly goes to show how important seatbelts are, I'm glad you and your Mom are safe! @trooworld The salad was so colorful and delicious! The cold should be ending by this weekend so I'm excited to get out again after work. I miss the activity and the time to decompress away from the house.…
-
@theslightedgeforever It was definitely fun to see it in real time since it was definitely an ego boost to see how fit I was! And he does the elliptical for an hour a day so his baseline isn't bad but once you add weights it's a whole different game! I'm so glad you got to chat and connect with your friends on your…
-
@TeresaW1020 Aldi is my favorite place to shop! I hope the meatloaf was great! I'm excited for you to get to buy some smaller sizes for spring and summer clothes! And I wouldn't worry too much about the gain. You are being so accountable that it'll be off in no time @trooworld That charcuterie board looks fantastic! What a…
-
@theslightedgeforever SAME! I'm a terrible dancer but I always have so much fun I don't care! My SO calls it my white girl bop lol. @trooworld Oh bummer. I'm sorry you have to jump through so many hoops to figure out the sleep thing. I hope you get answers soon @cbabie I'm so glad the checkup went well! It does feel good…
-
@trooworld I love your new standing desk! I'm also a huge fan of cauliflower crust pizza. I think it's a great way to get extra veggies in and if it's done well I can't tell either @TeresaW1020 I'm so glad you didn't let a number on the scale hold you back! Also, congrats on the scale already being down so fast with all…
-
@theslightedgeforever I totally get being roped into things you didn't want to do. I hope today goes better @trooworld I'm bummed to hear they weren't in it much, their commentary would have been great! I also took Friday off and am looking forward to it! Nothing like a short week to get you through. @gemwolf110 Glad to…
-
@cbabie I love grilled chicken too. I hope you continue to carve out time for yourself and enjoy the walks outside. Let me know if the gummies help! @TeresaW1020 I hope you had an amazing time over the weekend!! Can't wait to hear about it! @trooworld How was the puppybowl? I love that Snoop and Martha cohosted it. I…
-
@theslightedgeforever It is cabin weekend, and sadly yes I am bringing work with me. 2021 is the year of hustle for both my husband and I so we can hopefully enjoy the fruits of our labor in 2022! I'm glad the soup turned out well. I love thick soups for winter too @trooworld That's awesome that you and your husband have…
-
@theslightedgeforever That soup sounds fantastic, how did it turn out? I LOVE thin mints in the freezer so that would not slow me down lol. I purposefully got my husband's favorites (shortbread and samoas) instead of mine to reduce the damage I can do! @trooworld Thanks for the tip on the noodles. My SO will love those!…
-
@theslightedgeforever I love that analogy, cause I'm not giving up but I also don't have the energy to accomplish it right now so I'm really just focused on keeping up habits so I don't come out of covid heavier than when I entered it @trooworld I hope the workout helps your headache. I know walking always helps when I…
-
@trooworld Way to go on the super long walk! I never thought of eating jicama warm, I bet that did taste delicious since they're starchy. And 6.4lbs in a month is awesome!! I love the idea of doubling up movement to help with sleep. @RetiredandLovingIt I'm so excited you've got your first covid shot, that is fantastic! A…
-
I thought I posted yesterday, but I don't see it so I guess it disappeared! Oh well. Happy Saturday all! @trooworld Sorry to hear the candy bar wasn't worth it. I love trying candy and food from different countries. Also, congrats on the loss, it sounds like you're hitting all your goals! @TeresaW1020 Almost 5lbs in a…
-
Y'all I've been trying to write this for 7 hours and keep getting pulled away, it's been A DAY! @cbabie I could read for fun all day since it sooths my soul. What kind of stuff do you like to read? @trooworld Don't beat yourself up too much! Only eating a third is awesome. Also, how was it?? I've never had candy from India…
-
@trooworld That's a great idea to reward yourself with a new fitness subscription. Non-food related treats are the best! Sorry to hear about your headache though, that makes for a long day. @RetiredandLovingIt Ideally I'd like both kinds, since I love my electric for day to day, but wood burning is just so much more…
-
@cbabie I love that you and your SO are making the best of a rainy week and enjoying the fireplace. There's nothing quite as relaxing as a wood burning fireplace, I love using my Grandma's when I visit @trooworld thanks for sharing the recipe. You always do such an amazing job of searching out and trying new recipes! It…
-
@RetiredandLovingIt We definitely got the snow that was meant for you! And daycare is SO expensive, I'm sure your DD felt like she was rolling in money. Where my friend lives it's $350/week per kid!!! I would also love to walk indoors, but with the dogs I have to brave the cold @trooworld Great job sticking with exercise…
-
@cbabie Sorry yesterday was a bit of a bust, do you have a plan to conquer today? @theslightedgeforever Sounds like you've got another busy week ahead! Good job still getting your activity in @trooworld It sounds like that means an even bigger loss next week, you got this!!! Hey all. Our quaranteammate made a three tier…
-
@trooworld Headaches are the worst. I'm sorry to hear that! I hope your husband sticks with WW too, it's great to have an accountabilibuddy @cbabie Did you end up getting your walk in? @TeresaW1020 I hope you enjoyed your day off work! I haven't tried MBFA yet since I've been too intimidated but you've inspired me to give…
-
@trooworld I laughed a bit at your description of the vegan mushroom soup, not quite a ringing endorsement! And I totally get the struggles with motivation, that is absolutely me today. @cbabie Thank you for your kind words! Way to hit your goals two days in a row! @TeresaW1020 It sounds like you have a great plan in place…
-
@gemwolf110 Thank goodness for pups indeed, they're my lifesaver as well during stressful times @cbabie Way to go!! Sounds like you had a great day on track @theslightedgeforever That's too funny that it took so many pounds for him to notice, they are so clueless sometimes! @TeresaW1020 So sorry to hear about your knee, I…
-
@gemwolf110 4:30am?!? Holy buckets! You must go to sleep super early to get up then! @trooworld Impressive water intake! It is really hard to avoid the treats when they're right in front of you. I know I've struggled staying out of the kitchen! Getting up and taking a short walk to the other building sounds like a great…
