@rwood566 Roger, yes! We do have a lot of amazingly high steppers here. Thank you,I thought the same here (about @amymartin555 and @Megan_smartiepants1970 walking towards one another). I thought if I could get to a goal of 1 1/2 hours, I'd be elated. Megan is in my head at 6:30 telling me to wake up and have coffee so that…

part 3- ok, I think I've caught up 😆 @Beverly2Hansen Awesome step day!!!! That's huge 👏🏻👏🏻 Well done, staying under budget and drinking 2 liters of water. It amazes me how you can drink so much water, I'd be peeing all day long. 😳 @BRGking Way to go! Another high step day 👏🏻👏🏻 and swimming (not floating) for 30 minutes🤩…

part two... @rlaskey2 Oh my goodness 18,000 steps PLUS you started a new routine👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 The 18,000 would have been my routine 🤣.

Good Morning Team 🤩 I have a bit of catching up to do. @BRGking Way to go Gerrit!!! 10,900 steps👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @lindamtuck2018 Yes, yes it was rude of that donut to ruin my sleep by hurting my belly.

@Megan_smartiepants1970 Thank you, I'll try that. It sounds like you're a lot like my sister in that way. She's great at decluttering, she tosses so much. I even have boxes of stuff that I saved for the kids that have stuff they will not have any interest in, I need to thin those out too. Todays plan is to donate the stuff…

UPDATE Soooo… I should have just gone to bed, but no I saw the donuts called out to me. After I had a small slice of chocolate cake. I said, no to the donut and had a bowl of special k cereal instead. I should have gone to bed. The donut called to me AGAIN. Well… I didn’t want to be rude. Now I’m finally in bed, but oooh…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 I'm so very sorry to hear about your hips. I hope you feel better in the morning 🤗 I'm glad you are taking a rest. @363days Thank you for sharing that! It was very interesting. I remember, years (ok, decades ago) hearing that walking backwards is better for you. I was always afraid of falling though…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 You leave at 5:30? Ok, so many questions:* What time do you wake up? * What time do you go to bed? * HOW did you get your daughter to walk that long with you? * Can you convince my kids to do the same? * I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling the pain during & after your walks. I need to suck it up…

@lindamtuck2018 Thank you! 🤗 How are you feeling? Did you get your voice back? @Tazaria87 That's great to hear that both parents are on MFP also AND that they lost a combined 60 pounds 👏🏻👏🏻 Wow, Ashley that's amazing!

@lmf1012 Another terrific step day Joni👏🏻👏🏻 @Tazaria87 Wow Ashley 🎉 it was a huge five for five day for you 🙌🏻 That was a terrific idea walking the kids to the playground, letting them run around and play, then walking back. I know I've said this before, I love how you and your folks go for walks. How close do you live to…

@jimboden3 I read that as you got to enjoy yourself at your son's graduation party and the scale barely moved 🤗. I'm glad everyone had a great time. Congratulations to Andrew🎉 I'm glad to hear that you can still do your walks (as long as you don't experience any discomfort) and go on vacation out west. Ahem- no lifting, no…

@Poobah1972 🎉 Thank you Jonathan for becoming our newest team motivator! 🎉 @red1185 Nicely done!

Good morning everyone! I overslept, one of my kidabunks didn't sleep well last night so when the light pierced through my eyelids (graphic yes) I knew it was late. My daughter has an appointment for her braces in the midmorning, so I'm going to swap my day around and exercise in the afternoon and do chores in the morning.…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 I'm so impressed by that insanely high walk. I'm going to slowly start increasing my distance so that I can catch up to you by August 😆 Thank you for sharing that you like using Leslie Sansone videos for days when you can't get outside, I saved a couple to try out.

@rwood566 I used to love watching those two shows. They get so technical, love that! Libby (the free library app) has their e-magazines that you can borrow. @lindamtuck2018 Well done, four for four 👏🏻👏🏻 That's a great idea, a walk to Tim Hortons and a nice ride home with Garry. Look at all of your steps even before your…

@lindamtuck2018 We still do online grocery for that exact reason. It helps prevent me from impulse buying. I used to be terrible in the before times at both Target and Walmart. I'd go in with a list, and then see this thing and that thing, think that's a great price we could use that. When I go to check out I'd get sticker…

@Beverly2Hansen Nicely done Beverly over 13,000 steps 👏🏻👏🏻 @azkunk & @rwood566 both gave me brilliant advice "Moderation not deprivation ... that is the key to making this a sustainable lifestyle." When I used to restrict foods (desserts or baked goods), I couldn't stop thinking about them. I'd then finally eat until I…

In Gretchen Rubin’s book, Better Than Before, she writes, “What we do every day matters more then what we do once in a while.” What is one habit that you do every day that helps you on your path to become healthier?
