Aug 5 I am self-identifying as a Sewest. At least a little progress on sewing projects every day. 1. My goal for this month (This August I will...") : This August I will make progress on a current sewing project every day. 2. The small actions I’ll be taking to accomplish this goal: Before work each day [before lunch on…

Happy August everyone! I will be using UAC for re-establishing daily food-logging / 20+ minutes of exercising (mostly "+" as will be aiming for 8000 min steps (more often more) per day. For HERE - I am self-identifying as a Sewest. At least a little progress on sewing projects every day. 1. My goal for this month (This…

For a long time (years) while On The Way Down The Scale, and weighing / logging was Strong With This One, I didn't have trouble having a defined amount of Bark Thins (dark chocolate pieces with pretzel bits mixed in). Lately, the control element has slipped on ALL aspects of weighing / logging. The only saving graces at…

Can you name the original song title and artist? Answer: Can you provide another meme of another song that makes you smile? (If you have difficulties loading an image, any saying / joke / memory-story that makes you smile will do!)

May 4: ✅✅✅ (slightly more than 13,300 steps on the day - all food logged, most of 118 fitbit exercise calories earned were "left in the pot" Monthly total: ✅✅ ❌✅

I know from your intro that your starting point is somewhere in the "SW of the UK" .... where are you motorhoming to? I got on a train in Hampshire and traveled to Cornwall - Penzance & Land's End once, years ago. Anywhere around there?

I rather like the "ninja sneak-attack" approach to increasing general-activity (over and above the UAC tracked "20 minutes intentional activity-exercise of choice".) TRY to be "inefficient" through your day. Take extra trips to carry in a load from the car instead of carrying in all bags in one go; use the farther-away…

I am at ~ Step 2.5 ( working on actively re-establishing conscious competence ) Already having multi-years of entries in my "Recent / Favourites " (aka most commonly reused), a relatively unexciting level of variety, and next to no social life ( so "special occasion pass days" are easily pre-identified well in advance) are…

May 3: ✅✅❌ (slightly more than 10,000 steps on the day - despite a grey and rainy day - all food logged, but only just over cals despite a wopping 6 extra fitbit activity calories earned) Monthly total: ✅✅ ❌

It's the only kind in the house (and has been for the last 2 or 3 years)

Hubby left a Big Not-So-Subtle Hint on the kitchen table for me to find this morning ... fresh bread from our breadmaker will be ready by 10:00 a.m. 🍞🤱🍞 (to go with the mid-morning Raspberry Chocolate coffee ... ☕ )

YAY All of you!! I aim to be on this list myself come this time next month. #StatingIntentions

My goal for May is To Just Show Up - have an MFP sign-in streak of 31 days .... and may as well log and report in here while I am at it 😎 So far, so good! May 2: ✅✅✅ (more than 8500 steps on the day - despite a grey and rainy day) Monthly total: ✅✅

We decided on turkey thighs - practically my most favourite meat of all!

I have pre-logged (except for whichever protein we choose as "supper-meat" ) so off to a good start at getting back into my groove.

I was one of the ones who "went silent" partway through April, but am now back with a vengeance. A strong start to May, and a determination to make it a Steady Stream Month. The only special events on the near-term horizon are Mother's Day, and a wedding to attend on June 4th. Looking to look my best as my BFF's son gets…

April was very hit-and-miss (MOSTLY miss!) month for me. So today, May 1, is Day 1 of a new mpf "just plain sign in" streak. And I may as well log exercise, food, and report in to UAC while I am here .... I need to shake myself off - gloat that on my 34th wedding anniversary (yesterday) my wedding dress FIT (the arms…

Catch-up report April 21 - 25 : ❌❌❌ x 5 (the exercise may or may not have been met at least once, but no logging and almost surely over for all of the above) Monthly to April 18: 4+ ❌s and stopped counting. April 19 => 30 ✅ ✅ ❌❌❌❌❌

Daily for April 20: ✅✅✅ Monthly to April 18: 4+ ❌s and stopped counting. April 19 => 30 (Aiming for Champion) ✅ ✅

Daffodil buds and ..... SNOW is falling out there this morning!! 😭😭

I am rebooting the weighing and logging again too. Two full weeks back from UK, plus the Easter Weekend is now also in the rear-view mirror. Despite being full time back on home turf since April 2, my record for Pass Days Taken This Month is ..... let's just say "4+ before April 7th" Also rebooting the usual walking…

Easter Dinner with my son and my mom joining us at the table will be tomorrow. She is having The Turkey Spread today with my brother and his wife's extended family, so we will be having a lighter Festive Meal - baked cod with mashed potatoes and garden sweet peas, with a festive dessert. Tonight will be "an ordinary…

Hi, @faithcreek We'd love for you to start a "practice run", getting ready for May. We also have a "Champion's List" for those who keep showing up for the month, once no longer in the running for the Winner's Circle. Hope to see your name on that one come the beginning of May!

Funny you should mention that, @lesdarts180 ! The same thing happened to me on my own weight-loss journey. After I dropped below a certain point, I stopped snoring too. Has anyone else experienced the same unexpected bonus?

Yes, Winchester UK (sorting out a house on the top of St Giles Hill - south-facing towards St. Catherine's Hill)

We are more than half way through the month .... Just Keep Going.
