This challenge was created fifteen years ago by a few Weight Watchers members.
We are committed to making positive and permanent lifestyle changes.
Success isn’t always measured at the scale.
Each day, think about the positive actions that you made the day before and identify the challenges you are working on.
Anyone with a positive commitment to the program can join.
If you are the first one to post each week, please copy, paste and get us started.
If you choose, pose the Question of the Day (QOTD) that solicits constructive ideas for following the plan.

Yes I Did: do Duolingo lessons, track every BLT, hydrate, stay positive, make healthy choices Yes I Can: Stay OP, hydrate, find NSV's till the scale responds, make a plan for food next week
Read and reviewed a book and am halfway through the next. This plus two more are due by the end of the month and if I finish early, will also read a book that should have been reviewed already in hopes of one day being caught up and even ahead in writing reviews.

Good Friday morning, positive peeps 🐥🐣
Oh, dear, I've been absent again! We've had a week of various little celebrations of Rick's birthday. Wednesday we met up with some friends at a Thai restaurant for dinner and then went to a friend's home for homemade strawberry pie. Yesterday we had a picnic lunch with Rick's cousins from Florida who were staying at a campground about an hour away from here...they have been taking their camper-trailer around the country for about 2 months, so we were happy the itinerary worked out that we could see them this week. The cousins were fortunate to have been able to see some areas in Canada before wildfires started in the Banff & Jasper areas. Apparently many of the pine trees have recently been attacked by an infestation of some beetle that kills the trees, which then become tinder for the wildfires. Terrible. Anyway, we were glad to see his cousins, first time in several years.
Last night we enjoyed an outdoor concert by Chicago, which is Rick's all time favorite band. The concert was great, lots of fun. Again, happy that the concert venue had the band in our area pretty close to the birthday and the weather cooperated!
Yes I DID:
--buy healthy food for our picnic lunch: turkey burgers, fruit salad
--enjoy perfect weather for all our outdoor events!
--sleep really well last night
Yes I CAN:
--get outside for a walk
--do some decluttering of chaos in my BR
--wind down early
Be well!
Carol

Went out with Rosalie yesterday afternoon and found a bathing suit for 8 dollars and a shirt a bit like a Hawaiian shirt in cotton for 12 dollars. We looked at a few other places, had iced coffee, and have plans for next week to be together two or three days to play cards one day or two and a pool party at a friend's house another. Water main still not fixed and don't expect water till the end of next week.
Yes I Did:
* Stay OP * Track every BLT * Make healthy choices * Hydrate * Get enough sleep * Stay positive
Yes I Can/Will:
* Stack another OP day on the pile * Stay positive * Read another book and write the review then post it

Happy Thursday.
Thank you, ladies, for keeping this thread afloat!
This Spring and Summer has just been jam-packed. Plus, it is still uncomfortable to sit at my computer desk. It is small and my knee
just doesn't bend right yet. I am still doing PT to move it more but it's still painful. If I can't get the knee to bend correctly, they will have to put me under
and "break" up the scar tissue. More rehab time. This has not been easy.
Carol: Always loved the band Chicago! Bet that was a fun concert. Congrats on staying at WW goal.
Cathy: You always get the best bargains! Sorry to hear about the lack of water. Good for you getting out having fun.
Just watched the Women's gymnastics. Love the Olympics. Opening ceremony was epic.
Will try to be back soon and more often.
Jan
