    Thank you! I'm glad to be here. I'm just recently getting back into the swing of exercising and trying to eat better after falling off the wagon for quite a while. I was in a slump and didn't really care, but I knew that wasn't really me and I would come out of it when I was ready. That time is now! I've been doing pretty good the last couple days, tracking all my calories and staying under my calorie goal, as well as getting some exercise in. I love to go for walks outside, as well as swimming. I also do some strength training and workout videos at home. Since I'm just getting started I'm taking things slow and focusing on one day at a time. I set a personal goal for the week to avoid eating chips since they are my biggest junk food weakness and I've done good so far! I'm excited to be part of this group!

    Hi - July was my first month with this team and it has been great. How does it work when you move onto the next month. I weigh in on Wednesdays and next Wed is on July 31st. Does that count as first week in August for reporting?

    Sounds like you're starting out with a strong plan! Way to go at avoiding those chips!

    Struggling and fighting to just keep going.....haven’t been logging food, but weighing everything and have been very mindful about keeping with the usual foods.

    Tuesday
    Calories - should be under, nothing out of the ordinary
    Exercise - lifting + workout group

    Wednesday - should be under, nothing out of the ordinary (yet)
    Exercise - 3 mile run in the heat because I could get myself up early enough this morning, kickboxing tonight

    Tomorrow - 3 mile run + workout group on the calendar - try harder to get up early to run before work

    Hi, Fleetwood... it’s my first month, and I had the same question. I checked our F2F home page and noticed that there is now Week 5 for July, ending Aug 3rd.

    Okay, looks like ice cream is going to be the thing I have to watch for this week. I'm afraid I went over my calories by about 96 because of a second, yes second ice cream. Man, it's so hot, though!
    15257 steps though!

    Yes, continue weighing in the same day and reporting as you have. On the last Friday or Saturday watch for a post from myself or @broncobuddee with a link to the new discussion thread for August. We will kick off the month of August on the 4th.

    Kres, will we automatically be included in the Slimpossibles for August? Assuming our last July weigh in will be our new starting weight for August?

    Yes - all current members will automatically continue and transfer to August unless the team member requests to be removed from the challenge.

    @notsolazylisa - Welcome! I love your goal for this week of avoiding chips. It sounds like you picked out something clear and that can make a difference for you! (My goal, when I started, was not eating Reese's!)

    @Wishusdonna - Awesome steps!

    @KMD1214 - Brilliant weigh-in! Congratulations!

    @TeresaW1020 - Any exercise works! Good luck with all the house prep!

    @ka97 - How are you doing today? Shifting your sleep schedule to get workouts in in the morning is challenging!

    @davors19 - Congratulations on holding steady. That takes work!

    @digger61 - Yet another great day! You are so consistent and committed!
