Thanks!
Whoever gets there first will put them on the spreadsheet - please click "Insightful" when they are recorded so we all know which weights are taken care of, ok? @broncobuddee - if you need no help, other help, or whatever would work best for you and the team, just let me know1 -

Did you hit the treadmill on Saturday, as you were hoping to do? Or get out for a walk to get those steps in?
Yes, I did have a spreadsheet where I was keeping track of my steps but then this whole house moving thing has really gotten in the way. Once I'm settled I will start tracking again and maybe in October, I will be able to keep track of everyone who wants to join in on a challenge. I do love me a good spreadsheet!

We have a spot at the bottom of our spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18w9bl04Iag3IWt2Bex6UwwuNyJjOU5vcF8Mydrnn8BM/edit#gid=2032789470). I'm happy to log team steps there if interested.2 -

Hello again!
It's been a long summer without you guys!
I strayed away from my routine of working out regularly and eating healthy and I gained about 5 lbs, which isn't the worst thing but I know I didn't have to if I kept up with my workouts.
I am a full time baker at a local cupcakery and cafe, so I am up and about really early in the day. By the time I'm off I am exhausted from being on my feet. Also I love sweets! So baking is hard without tasting what I am making. I have gotten better at not eating as much on the job and only when I am absolutely hungry.
This morning was wonderful. My boyfriend and I went on a early morning hike since we were both off from work. It was nice being active and feeling my body move.
This time around I'd like to lose a few more lbs.for myself and for an upcoming vacation to El Salvador in January. Where there will lots of outdoor activities and I need to keep my stamina and endurance up

@bronchobuddee, thanks for the offer to record our steps. This week for me is crazy because I'm moving next Monday but soon I would love to help get a challenge going. Maybe we can do it in a couple of weeks or so.
@angielove88, wow working in a bakery would not be good for me! I once worked for a couple of years at Starbucks and their pastries and free coffee wasn't not helpful for my diet. You might need to just draw a hard line in the sand that you don't eat the sweets you bake. Maybe allow yourself one treat a week so you have that to look forward to. Keep that vacation firmly in your mind and you will achieve your goals!
Monday Check-In:
Calories: under
Water: over
Exercise: stayed late at work and did some packing once I got home.
I'm on the final countdown to the move into my new house. I'm excited but this week is going to be busy. I will try to check in as much as I can!

Oh @angielove88, I could never work in a bakery. I love baked stuff! Well done for not eating everything you see
Monday check in:
Calories : under
Water : over
Exercise : beginners strength routine and half hour run
Goal/improvement for tomorrow : I was rubbish with procrastination today. I did achieve one important thing but I had time for so much more, and just... didn't. Trouble is I'm going out with a friend tomorrow so I won't be able to focus on work much.. So goal will be to simply come in under calories, as she wants to get lunch out.1 -
@TeresaW1020 I'm totally up for a step challenge!!!
And I'm trying not to eat all of the salty things at work tonight, like I did last week before weigh-in day0 -

Sunday Check in:
Calories: over
Water: under
Exercise: Took a couple of walks, did a lot of cleaning and moving around for today – almost 15,000 steps!
Remember the good, be the good, encourage others on their journey
My September goal: 205 lbs – I ended August on a gain and tore into just eating whatever for several days so this accounts all of that.
I'm not sure why I decided to abandon all sense of reason eating these past several days, ending on a real tear over the holiday weekend. I'm glad I'll be back on a routine now - I obviously need the structure. Getting to 205 means losing some pounds again (won't know what the damage is until tomorrow morning). On a brighter note, my old lady aches and pains are so much better and I'm exercising more - looking forward to continuing that trend as I back down to the kind of calorie and sodium numbers needed for losing. =>
A good week to all - lots of great progress here, love reading about how everyone is doing!

Hello all! I haven't been around for awhile as I've been on vacation, spent a week camping. I had a great time but it's good to get back to a routine. My eating hasn't been great and I need to start exercising again. I'll be weighing in tomorrow and I'm sure there will be a gain, but I can't let it get me down.
Some of my goals for the week are:
Drink my water and stay hydrated.
Start logging my food/calories again.
Start working out again.

All set. You post it in the team thread, as you did, and a captain or moderator will enter it in the spreadsheet.
