    Hi everyone, sorry I am so late posting my intro! My name is Holly and I am also a mother of young children (I have four kids aged 5 months to 7 years old). I am in the process of losing baby weight (again) and it’s going pretty well. I have a hard time getting around to logging my food sometimes, just so busy, and then I say “oh well I’ll just eat whatever since I’m not logging it” Anyone else? Snacking is a downfall for me too.
    On the other hand, I love to exercise, especially yoga, walking, and strength training. I teach a few exercise classes and that is the main reason I make it to the gym ;)
    This is my third month in this challenge and it is great! Looking forward to continuing the journey with all of you.

    Yes. My mind will go into "free-for-all" mode when I know I am not going to be logging and/or exercising. However, we need to remember that just because we are not recording it in our log, it will still be recorded on the scale!

    And you are right...every day is a fresh start. You can't undo yesterday, but you can make today better!!

    Week 1: Monday, March 5
    1. Logged all food
    2. Stayed inside calorie budget after calories out
    3. Xhit for 10 mins and 45 min weights

    I weighed and measured myself today for my baseline.

    May I have that weight for the spreadsheet? Today is your week #1 weigh-in.

    Yup, I think our winter lasted about 5 weeks or so this year.. It was our "Winter" Street fair and it was sunny a high of 72, so definitely a nice day for a walk outside on my official rest day.

    Thank you, Definitely on a mission. I am on another challenge from a different website and basically need to weigh 296 on July 22nd in order to win that challenge so joining this group seemed beneficial in order to keep me on track and have some fun doing it. :smiley:

    Mini Ultimate Accountability Challenge - February Week #4 [/b (Sun the 25th to Sat. the 3rd)

    Winner's Circle - 6 or 7 days:
    @GardenMama129 (6)
    @HASWLRS (6)

    Notable Effort - 4 or 5 days:
    @karynclarke (4)
    @Tracie_Lord (4)

    Attempted:
    @holly2e (3)
    @primekayprime (2)
    @motherorftwins95 (1)
    @Nicoletime4me - (1)

    @GardenMama129 continued her winning ways and increased her streak in the Winner's Circle to 5 weeks!!! That is being very accountable and dedicated; congratulations!! However, she was not alone at the top last week. She had company... me!! The last time I was in the Winner's Circle was sometime in late 2017......

    @karynclarke continued with her Notable Effort, and @Tracie_Lord had a Notable Effort of her own, for the first time!! Nicely done, ladies!!

    For the four of you who attempted last week, just try to add one more day this week and see what happens. Who knows, maybe you'll get on a roll and end up in the Winner's Circle!!

    Hey all!! Sorry for the late intro! I'm Karyn, 35, mom to 3 boys (two 16 year olds and a 9 year old), scientist and roller derby player.

    I have a 212 day logging streak and have lost 45 lbs in that time. I've still got around 40 lbs to go, but am currently on maintenance calories as I broke my finger a couple of weeks ago playing in our first game of the season.

    I'm away for a few days rest and relaxation, so won't be able to weigh, so I'll weigh-in a day early.

    Previous weight: 185.3 lbs
    This week: 184.5 lbs
    Apparently healing a broken finger uses up more calories than I thought... Was expecting a slight gain with water weight from the extra carbs, not a loss of nearly a pound!

    Congratulations on your unexpected loss!! Enjoy your few days away and we will see you when you get back!
