Previous Weight: 270.2

New week, new chances to do better!
Moving into a new apartment today and it’s upstairs so I’ll be burning all the calories
Stair climbing is a brilliant calorie burner... good luck on the move1 -
I'm Terri, I'm from Northamptonshire in the UK. I've been on this weight loss journey for just over 2 years, and on MFP and part of this group for about 18 months (I think). I've gone from being a couch potato to being a bit of a gym bunny (currently just getting into training for a Marthon in October).
I do some intermittent fasting, along with Keto, I don't eat befroe 2 pm, but I do that as it suits me and I find it quite easy. However, don't try to take by Cherry PesiMax away from me!!!

MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLES
As you can see by the tags listed above, Team Mission Slimpossibles has a pretty good size team - approximately thirty (30) challengers.
What makes this challenge effective in helping to encourage, motivate and inspire each of us is the sharing between each other. It is very important that EVERY challenger on each team participate as often as possible. What this means is that we (The captains and moderators) ask every challenger to post on their team threads. Keep in mind that probably 40-50% of the posts are just from the team captains and motivators.
It is very important for you to share with your teammates. It is this "sharing" that help to motivate, encourage and inspire each of us (including ourselves). In addition, when you share your struggles, failures, challengers, etc., it lets others know that they are not alone in these challenges and that other people go through the same failures, the same struggles, etc...
What you should share - ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING! Share your victories, accomplishments, meals and meal preps, fitness plans, workouts, before and after photos, even whether you are having a good day or bad day. Share your failures, struggles you face in your fitness plan, challenges, tell us about those silly little 'Pepperidge Farm gold-fish' you can't stop eating (ok, that's my bad)... Literally anything.
Simply put - PLEASE, don't just post when you are posting your weights. It is important that you post and share often, even daily if you can. This helps everyone, especially yourself (because we are all here for you as much as each other)...
Thanks
Steve

Hello all. My name is Sharon aka @sunshineplace. I dabbled with MFP in the past but have been logging in daily since October 2018 when I joined this amazing group. I don’t use the app to count calories because I am following Weight Watchers but I do participate regularly in this group in addition to WW which has helped me tremendously.
That said I have not been very active in the group as of late. I have been struggling with some health issues, one being an infection that I can’t seem to shake. Fingers crossed round three of antibiotics does the trick this time and that upcoming tests will determine the cause so I can get my life back.
I have not been tracking or exercising or doing much of anything except trying to get through a day at a time. Getting through the work day is about all I have the energy for at the moment but I will be back!!
This is a fantastic group of people here and I love the support and encouragement that I receive. I am so grateful for the people who give their time to make this group what it is so THANK YOU!2 -

Happy February everyone! I'd like to extend a warm welcome to our new members and a welcome back to returning team members!!!
I'd like to continue with introductions. Please share your name, where you live, how long you have been on MFP, and anything you want to share about your weight loss journey so far - successes, challenges, goals for the month. Anything to help you get motivated and maybe inspire others on the team!!
Go Slimpossibles!!!!!!
Hi my name is Teresa and I've been on MFP since July 2018. I will be 53 years old next month and while I do find it super annoying to be aging, I'm starting to breathe that I'm not going to suddenly morph into my mother. Don't get me wrong I love my mom!
I've been a WW member for two years and I've lost almost 50 lbs. I still have another 40 or so to go. I like WW a lot but I also needed more awareness since 0 point foods can really mess a girl up. So, I joined MFP and now I double track everything I eat. I'm currently watching my sodium to see if that will yield any insight and hopefully some more weight loss.
I really love being a part of Mission Slimpossibles! I like doing the Fitbit and step challenges and while I am NEVER going to be a rock star like our girl Tess, it does challenge me to get my butt out of my chair and move around a bit more.
