    Hello team!!
    I'm super excited to be starting this challenge. I just had my second baby January 3, 2019 and I'm struggling to get this baby weight off. This is just the motivation that I need!!

    Looking forward to this!

    Thanks for having me! I am excited! Looking to lose the last few lbs of midwest winter weight. It's gotten harder as I get closer to 40...so also just trying to solidify healthy habits for the rest of my life that leave me feeling good! Thank you!

    @Keepingtrack1234 I hear that! I'm usually overweight, but winter is always the worst. I'm hoping to not only get back to 165, but break through that plateau.

    I'm so glad for this group! @BonnieHosk85 is a great captain!

    Haha! I’m also working on some baby weight. About 20lbs for kid 1 and 20lbs for kid 2! I will start with those goals and go from there 🙂.

    Do we weigh-in on Sunday or on the day we said when we registered?

    Glad to have you, @hickchic67!

    @Micheller1210, I've been battling post-baby weight for 26 years now. :D

    @allietuge, usually it's the day you registered as that is your start date. Just let me know if it needs to be changed.

    Hope everyone has a great evening!

    Bonnie This Monday is my wigh in day. Does it count towards the may tally?
  • bdashnay

    This may be a silly question, but I have a hard time reading the standings. I’m assuming it goes based on % lost that week for the team. But sometimes a team wins, and when I look back on there, it’s not the highest % lost. (Like in week 3 of April, I believe Gutbusters won but another team had a higher %).

    I’m just wondering if I’m missing something lol. I enjoy checking in to see how we are doing but I don’t trust the numbers I see lol.

    @Micheller1210, you will weigh in Monday for your May week 1 number and yes, that will count in May. Your starting weight was the weight you registered with. Let me know if you still have questions. :)

    @bdashnay, I'm tagging @AB0215 for that question because I'm not sure.
