    I'm going to say NO to limitations...I can do whatever activity I'd like today! I think I'll read a book. Enjoy your day! Jessica

    Have fun Jessica!!! You deserve it! ❤️

    Today I’m going to an outdoor concert/festival that I also went to last year. This was one of my weight loss bucket list items and last year (80 lbs heavier than this year) I felt so free and joyful as I finished a great day dancing in the rain. So here’s to another great day of appreciating the freedom I’ve gained and living life to the fullest!!! 🤗

    My NO for today is - I am saying no to fixating on the food/treats that I will be faced with today. I’m just going to say “ pshht whatever 💁🏻‍♀️ - who needs that shiiiite?” I’ll be making healthy choices but also just relaxing and enjoying the day. Food is not why I am there. As a bonified food addict - this is enough of a challenge for me today 😅 but I’ve got the confidence I can do it! ❤️

    Hey @thutchinson2210 - good mindset on turning things around! 1 pound could be bloating or other regular fluctuations. All the best to you this coming week. You’ve got this!

    @jessicakrall8 I'm not participating in the August challenge. I've been sick for a while now and maybe I'll recover enough to join again for September. Thank you for the challenges!

    Thanks @jonathansrcom I've asked the MODs to remove you from the August chart. Hope you get well soon and come back to us. Keep in touch! Jessica

    This week's Group Challenge is an AWESOME one! It's all about positive self talk and how we frame our failures or successes with how WE set our mindset. We all know that this journey is at least partially in our mind and that sometimes we have to set the stage for the outcome we want to achieve. I know for myself, if I accentuate the positive, it has a profound effect on my results.

    Without sounding like an old SNL sketch of Stuart Smiley (google it), I AM A GOOD PERSON (and doggonit, people like me)! I can't help myself...this week I will continue looking for ways to do for others, which feeds this...

    Let's hear some positive thoughts from each of you this week guys...

    THESE MOD CHALLENGES ARE MEANT TO INFORM YOU AND START A CONVERSATION BOTH IN THE MOD CHALLENGE AND ON YOUR TEAM THREAD. SO PLEASE LET'S US ALL BE PARTICIPATOR AS MEMBERS OF THIS GROUP AND CHALLENGE.

    THANKS FOR YOUR DEDICATION TO YOUR JOURNEY AND TO THIS CHALLENGE AS A WHOLE.

    Thank you! @mulecanter . I think it's mostly water weight that I dropped because I was gaining each week before this weight loss. I'll take it though because as per this week's challenge of positive talk, "I am praiseworthy!" :smile:

    Well, we're back and everyone survived! Not a bad trip but still not something I would plan on my own. Luckily I have a year before we try this again!

    Steps:
    8/8 = 8,980
    8/9 = 7,895 Walked down by the Mississippi River and tried our luck at fishing. Didn't catch anything but trees but the kids had fun trying
    8/10 = 10,356 Nice hike to check out the old village ruins. Unfortunately there was nothing to see but a few signs marking where things use to be.
