    Hi, guys!
    In preparation for tomorrow's weigh-in, I thought I'd catch up with my daily digits:

    Saturday, 9.21 yes/yes/yes
    Sunday, 9.22.19 yes/yes/yes
    Monday, 9/23 yes/yes/yes
    Tuesday, 9.24 yes/no/yes (I went over my calorie count, oops!)
    Wednesday, 9/25 yes/yes/yes
    Thursday, 9/26 yes/yes/yes
    Friday, 9.27 yes/yes/yes

    I've been on the Synthroid now for a week, but I don't feel a difference yet. The Dr said it might take as much as a month and to be patient. So, this is me, being patient.

    Please remind me to be patient tomorrow when I get on the scale...

    @ethelsmommy, you've been working hard and doing well....number on the scale be damned!!

    My family and I went to the zoo and had a great time. It was about 3 miles of walking in 95 degree weather though. I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. Will see you guys in the October thread!

    @brandi_84, yeah it's going to be 86 degrees in Indianapolis at the time of the football game!
    Glad you had a great time at the zoo!

    My wife had to go to the hospital today and will be there overnight. I would like to roll over last weeks weight if I could. Not really what will be on my mind in the morning

    @erikNJ so sorry to hear this....take care of yourself and your wife!

    @HASWLRS I know we are switching to new board but wasn't sure if we wanted to try to do a food or exercise type challenge to start the new month or if you wanted to wait a week to settle in over there? Just let me know so I can start that voluntold position :)

    @sandkp, let's get it started!

    @sandkp I agree! And we can add a page or two to the spreadsheet so that it can all be managed there!

    @cmhubbard92 @HASWLRS sounds like a plan... will post the food and exercise challenges for next week here tomorrow and will also add it on the October thread too. (Spreadsheet looks great! Thanks for putting it together.)

    @HASWLRS have a great weekend!

    Hi, guys--time for the weigh-in:

    Last week: 221 lbs
    This week: 221 lbs

    So, obs, the Synthroid hasn't kicked in yet--it's only been a week, and the doctor did tell me it could take up to a month for it to regulate my thyroid. So, while I will continue on my weight loss quest, I will re-join you guys in November. This way, I can just concentrate on me and not worry about letting the team down.

    Trust me--I will be back in November. I'll need all your support to get through the holidays!!!

    Go Team Big Butt!!!!!!!

  • Final post for September. I've kept track of my monthly weightloss since I started this journey, mainly bc I gave myself monthly goals to reach as opposed to weekly. 5lbs per month. September has been the worst for me gaining and losing the same few pounds. This past week I've made some adjustments before I find myself stuck in a plateau. It's worked 😉 I've started meal prep for the first time too. If I stay on this track I'll start October with a loss 🤞

    April: -5.4
    May: -4.2
    June: -8.6
    July: -3.4
    August: -5.4
    Sept: (as of now, I still have 3 days left) -3.2
    Total: -32.4

    I May not have huge losses but slow and steady wins the race lol. Every pound adds up and I'm happy with what I've accomplished so far. Ready to rock October.

    Sorry team.. yesterday wasnt as planned. I took youngest to amusement park for the day.. lot of water and lots of walking. I am definitely not as young as I used to be. This momma was tired and didn't feel great when we got home so didnt post. Just going to post the weekly food and exercise challenge in October thread.
