    Hi team! Just wanted to check in, I will resume daily posts starting tomorrow. I didn't track or really follow my plan of attack for the beach and it showed on the scale this morning. Struggling with that mentally today but I'm going to work really hard to remember that making memories is most important to me and one weekend doesn't need to completely unravel everything I've already done. Just need to get back on track and try not to beat myself up too much! I hope everyone else had a good weekend and isn't struggling too much getting back in the swing of things!

    Welcome back! I like how you worded that.... "one weekend doesn't need to completely unravel everything I've already done. Just need to get back on track and try not to beat myself up"

    Words of wisdom!! Lets remember this. K? K! :smiley:

    2) Started the process of eating the rainbow this week.
    3) Got the lifting in early.

    Myself
    1) I'm not afraid to stand up for myself when necessary
    2) I'm getting better at managing the voices.
    3) I love animals

    Daily Post Tuesday
    Track: no
    Calories: had to be over
    Exercise: no
    Water: Not enough, but I talked myself out of a soda last night.

    Went to the kids favorite restaurant and went back and forth with the menu. I was told they were out of lettuce when I ordered a salad... Soup of the day was loaded potato... just went with one of my old standbys when my attempts at healthier failed. Didn't keep my hand out of the complimentary bisquit and cornbread basket either, so just need to get back on track for tomorrow (technically today).

    🙋🌞 😎 Good morning! It’s going to be a beautiful in northern Michigan! The cherry blossoms are in full bloom. And I believe just motivated myself to go take a walk after this post! YES! A beautiful day it shall be. 🏃 🌅
    @jupdyke~ Jen - you’re doing great! I just love how you bounce right back. I aspire to be like T-I-GG-ER too! I bounce back, but it takes a little longer. Awesome Tuesday! You may be back to work, but it’s a short work week! Yeah!!
    @MaelynMayhem~ A good Tuesday! Yeah you! I see you were ironging. LOL Awesome! Keep it up! Doing the three things list was hard! Making sure to stay positive, and about myself, too! It’s going to be interesting. Thanks for always sharing. Oh… love that you’re eating the rainbow. It’s much easier to do in the summer, for sure! Hope you find something new and exciting to eat.
    @skullsandskeletons ~ Whoooohoooo a few more steps! Great Tuesday! Yeah!
    @JamieD328~ What on earth are you doing up at 4:24am posting here? Goodnes gracious. It may not be perfect or pretty, but you’re not hiding and you’re being honest with yourself. When you’re a food addict like me, those two things aren’t always easy. Way to be accountable!

    Daily Post (Tuesday)

    Track: yes
    Calories: exactly at goal, 1380/1380, not sure how I managed to swing that
    Exercise: No, I think unfortunately our outdoor tennis window has closed here in DC. Seems we had two quick weeks of spring and now it is HOT.
    Water: Better
    Day: A solid day to get back on track, I was feeling full and meh all day so ate salad for lunch and dinner to combat that feeling! Drank lots of water to combat all the salt I ate over the weekend.

    Stepped on the scale this morning (Wednesday) and already lost a significant amount of the weight increase post holiday. I *should* weigh in tomorrow either the same weight as last week or a little less provided I work hard to hydrate and stay on track today. I'll just be happy with no gain considering my weight yesterday was up almost 5 pounds!!

    @jwall309~ "weigh" to get back on track. Glad you finally got some heat, we're getting a lot of rain. It makes for good morel hunting, but not walks and such. Do you have room to move to youtube videos? I've been having a blast finding and dancing to some I've found. It sure does make it easy when it's fun. :) Hope you have a hydrated day and get those lbs off!

    What would you do? Good question! A Gmail account is required to enter weights on a shared spreadsheet, help track the number of comments posted by team members, and comment to each team member. I am able to keep up, but it would be great to have a back-up! In the fall I tend to be a little busier. I can still do weekly challenge posts.
    So anyone able to help?
