Happy Sunday! Welcome to Week 1 for July, Gutbusters!
For those of you who are new to the group, here are some weigh-in FAQs:
• When do I post my weigh-in?
Post on your "scheduled weigh-in day". So, if you posted a weight in the New Member Registration thread on a Tuesday, then your scheduled weigh-in day will be each Tuesday of the month. Let me know if you have a question.
• Why is Week 1 beginning on Sunday? Haven't we been already posted our starting weights?
Think of it as a first birthday. You're born, then you must live a whole year before you can celebrate being 1. In this challenge, you post a starting weight, then you have a whole week to work on weight loss before you post your Week 1 weigh-in.
• How do I post my weigh-in?
Your posts should look like this:
Username:
Week: July Week 1
PW: Previous Weight in pounds
CW: Current Weight in pounds
• What's my previous weight?
If you're new, your Week 1 previous weight is whatever weight you posted in the New Member Registration thread or check out the current spreadsheet to see what your posted info says. If you're returning, your Week 1 previous weight is whatever your weight was in the last week of the previous month.
• Members are invited to post daily following the guidelines of another challenge called UAC (Ultimate Accountability Challenge). Very simple, but effective, in keeping us focused on our health goals. Please feel free to join that monthly challenge as well. @RangerRickL does a fantastic job there for keeping us motivated daily. I don’t think I’d be as far along on my journey if it wasn’t for TBL and UAC.
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes?
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?
• I'm still confused. Who can help me?
Just ask a question here and tag me (@BonnieHosk85), or PM me and I'll do my best to get back as soon as possible. I want you to succeed as much as I want success for me. If you miss your weigh-in I will message you to remind you. Because I care. If you need to drop out for the month, just let me know. Feel free to private message me if you need to.

That's what was added to the sheet, @matthewsfive. I'll double check it on the July sheet to be sure it's correct. Thanks!

Hello to all! I am new to the challenge but not new to MFP or to lifestyle changes and weight fluctuations.
I am 33, married to my best friend (twice 😵😉) and the momma to 2 girls (8&5) and bonus momma to 2 great kids (14&10). I run an in home daycare so snacking and lunches are the WORST for me! I’d love ideas on meal prepping for 1 and some good snacks that are low cal and tide me over for a bit.
I do get in a walk or 2 a day with our dog, Sirius ‘Black’ Sprinkles. I am starting a Beach Body workout that has worked in the past-pre babies- on Monday July 1st. This is not my first rodeo but I am hoping to get healthier and let’s be honest, hotter lol3 -

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, 24 minutes walking the dogs
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes0 -
What is your workout routine? How often do you do cardio and strength? I get 20 minutes on my lunch to hit the gym and I feel like I should be doing weight training since I can do cardio at home by walking.
This was so much easier before the babies haha!!1 -
