    ***ANNOUNCEMENT - Change in Game Rules!!***

    Current Rule: If a participant fails to submit their weekly weigh-in they will be marked as 0% loss which will affect not only their own standing but the overall standing of the team. Should they fail to submit 2 weeks in a row they will be eliminated and no longer able to participate in the challenge.

    NEW Rule: If a participant fails to submit their weekly weigh-in they will be marked as 0% loss which will affect not only their own standing but the overall standing of the team. After team results are posted for the week the non-submitter will be eliminated from the team and will no longer be able to participate in the challenge. This does not apply to those individuals that have reported their weight as 0% loss.

    **********************************************************************************************

    As I was looking into future weeks I realized that a non-submitter that decides to submit the next week will be evaluated on their previous weigh-in two weeks prior which makes it unfair to those that are weighing-in weekly. As a result, if you don't weigh-in weekly you will be considered weight that is weighing down the team and you will be eliminated.

    I'm sorry for the confusion in having to make the change. Because this is our first month doing the challenge it has been a work in progress. I feel with the new change in rules it will still make everyone accountable while being fair to those that are committed to the challenge.

    As always, if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

    @divaford140 my motto is also "just do it!!!" If I'm looking at a chocolate bunny and want to devour it, though, the motto has to be "just DON'T do it!!" Lol.

    have your meals all planned and fill it in first thing or as you go through the day ??

    I use the app so I track as I go, you could jot it down on a notepad as you go and enter it later, but some days I plan ahead, most days I fill it in as I go xx

    Hey all! I'm back from a busy weekend and ready to make some more progress with you all :) changed my goal back to losing 2 pounds/week after this weekend (not that I went way overboard or anything, I just had it set to maintenance so I want to make sure I'm at a deficit for this next week)
    Congrats, team! I'm so glad everyone stuck with it. Here's to a healthy week for everyone

    How well I do on any given day seems very directly tied to how well I slept overnight. Last night I did not sleep well. So, today, I will be focusing on spending my day on activities that don't involve the kitchen. I will be working in our home office. Usually, if I can get focused in the office, I can get through the day without so much damage from the cravings I will have due to the lack of sleep. :o

    What are some of the triggers you have found in your weight-loss journeys and how have you learned to cope with them?

    You and I are exactly the same @JMarcella57. If I don't get my sleep I feel nauseous in the morning and can't eat breakfast. Breakfast turns to lunch which is usually something quick. We all know those "quick" convenient lunches mean high fat, salt, sugar and carbs. By dinner time I'm starving and gorge myself and continue snacking until bedtime. Of course it's all "quick" as well. BRUTAL! I also find because I'm overtired I don't have the energy to exercise which creates the double whammy. No sleep + Poor nutrition + Lack of exercise = Weight gain!!

    Sleep is critical for my success!! I wish I could offer some tips but I can't. It all boils down to SLEEP. I have tried Meletonin (it's natural) on those nights I can't sleep. It does help a bit and doesn't leave you feeling groggy the next day.
