Hi gang! It seems like I've been MIA forever! My summer break has ended and I've been back to work since July 17th. Lots of all-day meetings and eating out since the 17th. However, this week is going MUCH better. Ironically enough, I haven't tracked anything in the various MFP threads I'm on since July 17th; that's how crazy life got. But I have been tracking-ish in my MFP food diary everyday. (I don't want to lose my streak!) Exercise has been sparse...up until this morning. I was determined to get in a workout before going to work. I am amazed that it took less than 2 weeks before the old sluggish feeling returned. Thankfully, I referred to past successful weeks to remind myself of the valuable lessons I learned this summer. These are the things I need to do consistently in order to get the desired results I want:
15,000 STEPS/DAY
64+ OZ OF WATER/DAY
6+ HOURS OF SLEEP/NIGHT
60+ MINUTES OF EXERCISE/DAY
So I am officially back in the saddle.
Oh yeah, in other news, in the midst of all the crazy I've had 2 more interviews for principal jobs. Found out today that I didn't get one of them. Still waiting to hear about the one I really want. If I could Velcro my phone to myself, I probably would. I'm expecting the call any second! I'll keep you posted.4 -

I see that since I hadn't posted my weight the past 2 weeks I fell off the spreadsheet. Can you add me back on with a starting weight of 201.3 with weigh-ins on Friday?
Yes, I sent a message to Ashley-she is the one that is actually in charge of the entire challenge for all the groups. I'm just the flunky that keeps up with all the data

Hi everyone,
Thanks for welcoming all of us newcomers. Sorry for the late entry, but I just realized tonight what team I was on!!!
My name is Jodi and I am a mom of two teenage boys (I think they are pretty great!!), happily married, and teach middle school ELA.
I had lost sixty pounds about a year and a half ago, but stopped being vigilant and gained most back. I realized that one of the big factors that helped my success was MFP - this challenge, tracking all my food, and being accountable. So I am looking forward to a great month!4 -
