September 1
Exercise: Yes - 30 mins 9round
Tracked: No
Calories: More than likely not
Yesterday was my husband's birthday and I had to taste the cupcakes and cookies before I served them (or else what kind of hostess would I be
)
It's great to see how easy I slide right back in to tracking now though. Before I would think, "well there's no point in doing it today since I didn't yesterday."2 -

Well done August Team Gutbusters.
Things to note:- Although the lightest total weight, the most number of pounds lost in the month.
- Anything averaging a loss over 1% per week for a month is an amazing effort and Gutbusters had 3. (@Metubal. @Grebber1. @mthomas0228.)
- Anything averaging a loss over 0.5% per week for a month is a great effort and Gutbusters had 7. (@Metubal. @Grebber1. @mthomas0228. @LesIckaBod. @caitlynns727. @ShareASmile. @emmclean.)
The main purpose of TBL is to share and learn. Its the same prize for first and last. The hope from this competition is that you learn, not only how to lose weight, but how to build sustainable habits that will keep you healthy for the rest of you life. (Unlike the TBL television program - most contestants years on had regained a lot of weight they lost as they had not LEARNED how to make SUSTAINABLE changes - https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/6-years-after-the-biggest-loser-metabolism-is-slower-and-weight-is-back-up/ )
The 0.5% and 1% per week losses are to celebrated as they are sustainable.
Let's make September another great month (one day at a time).
(tagging in all that are continuing on from August).

Sept 1st
Exercise: Yes! Also did the forearm plank, which was surprisingly hard to hold for more than 20 seconds hahah.
Calories under: Yes. I don't want a day off just yet.. I'm thinking that I'll take a day off when I feel like it. Right now I'm just so pumped on reaching my goal weight, because I'm actually not THAT far away. Earlier I used to chill on the calories on saturday and eat maintenance, but I've not been feeling the need for cheat meals and treats for a while. It's much better for me to just know that I can take a day off if there is something special planned.
Tracked: Yes

Welp, I'm new here so I guess I'd better introduce myself. My name is Maddison aka baby_carrit. I am 27 years old. I was on track last year on losing weight, but a car crash and the resulting depression and PTSD threw me off. Not only have I gained my weight back, but I gained an additional 10 pounds. I want to get back into shape for more reasons than I have time to list. But anyway, hi!!5

Wow, we did a good job in August, team! Here is to another good month in September.
In 9 days I will be leaving for vacation in Turkey for 5 weeks! I have missed my family, my friends, and Turkish food so much. I'll stick to my healthy life habits, which is much easier there. Mediterranean diet, sans the grains, is the bomb for me.
And... welcome new members. This is a fun group. Looking forward to meeting you all.4 -

Hello Guys 😎
My name is Akerra. I am 33 and have worked as a CNA for 13 years. My original journey I started in 2016 I went from right at 340 down to 220 give or take. Thinking I was able to manage on my own I quit using MFP a year ago and have gained around 35 pounds back. ☹😫 I used this challenge before for about 6 months of my journey and it helped SO MUCH. I am looking forward to getting to know you all and get back on track. You can send me a friend request if you would like I had to delete most of my old friends due to being inactive. Thank you to the people that takes the time and makes things like this possible 😍😘2 -
I'll go another month. I'll stick with same weigh in day. Thurs2

Tracked! Under calorie goal! Exercised!
Today was really tough for me actually. I didn't eat breakfast but managed to take a banana and some watermelon to work. I bought oatmeal when I got there (I work at starbucks) and i could only manage half of it!
I had some egg bites in my break because we accidentally warmed up an extra portion so I claimed it. and picked at the watermelon. I went to a meeting in the evening and i had half of my banana but.... i am really picky with bananas so i couldnt finish it.
as soon as i got home, chicken sandwich and a bottle of water.
doesn't sound like much and it isn't. I need to work on eating more at work and staggering out my calories.... i like my treat of my refresher drink in my lunch break though.... 190 calories of amazingness!
Tomorrow I'm going to take some cut veggies and start my day off right with a decent breakfast... not oatmeal though... oatmeal sucks LOL
Weigh in day is tuesday so.... let's see how it goes! I've been at this for coming up to 3 weeks now...don't feel any changes yet but i hope to soon!1 -
