    Hello. First-timer here! I am a mom of 5 and II've been working towards my health goals for nearly a year now. I've lost plenty of inches, and would like to see more pounds lost. I enjoy lifting weights, a little cardio and running after children.😊 Just started tracking again over a month ago, a little serious time...challenging myself to become more accurate and consistent with tracking my foods.

    I appreciate the accountability!

    Hope I am doing this right?

    Week: November, Week 1 (I think, I get confused on the weeks)
    Weigh in day: Sunday
    PW: 263 lb
    CW: 264.8 lb
    One thing I did well: I think I did a pretty good job of controlling snacking and keeping from binging in the face of a rough week.
    One thing to improve: I was on vacation last weekend, so I didn't get any meal prep done and mostly scavenged my pantry and skipped way too many meals last week. I'm really glad I kept from replacing meals with bags of chips, but it wasn't the best position to be in. I also skipped all my planned runs this week.
    Goal: Last week was topsy-turvey due to travel, but I have no excuses to not be on my game this week. Also, I feel like I've been doing a two-steps-forwards one-step-back on weight loss for the past few months. My weight is down, but it seems like every time I see real progress, it's immediately replaced by a slightly lesser weight gain. My weight is definitely lower, but I'd like to see some of this progress actually stick. I just need to really buckle down and stop making excuses.

    One thing I did well: I kept my eating in check while away at a conference Friday and Saturday.
    One thing to improve: I need to drink more water.

    Hi everyone! I've been doing this challenge since April or May and it has been wonderful!

    I went grocery shopping today and was tempted by the rustic multigrain bakery bread. I didn’t get it because I think it may have been the cause of my weight bouncing around the last few weeks. Since I haven’t had it the last few days, I’ve had a nice whoosh. 🤔

    Track: yes, I track everything
    Calories: over
    Exercise: yes, walked, cycled, ran, planks, push ups, squats and shopping at a mega mall so loads of mall walking
    Healthier Habits: mindfulness
    Goals: focus on mindfulness, logging and getting mileage in for half marathon on 11/16
    Am I happy with my progress today: Yes! Despite this being a birthday weekend with lots of “indulges” from cake and ice cream to citizen burger I did very well and was only over 1200 cal slightly. Plus I ate very mindfully and did not sweat the small stuff. I also did not feel deprived or down as I planned accordingly for the splurge meals and finished the days with lots of water and steps so I will see what the outcome will be next weekend remembering not to sweat the small stuff.

    Hi Team!

    Sorry to go quiet over the weekend. BF and I were moving! WOO! So very busy, but so so happy to be in our new place. Some unpacking still to do this week, but hopefully we will be done soon because let me tell you I am SORE. Just means I need to work on weight training in the gym.....

    Eating this weekend was not great if I'm being honest with myself. Lots of takeout and quick food, but I'm hoping all of the physical activity from moving will balance out as I get back on track this week! I will also get back on track here with reading everyone's posts and responding as I can! Thank you @AB0215 for taking care of things this weekend :)

    Let's do this Team! All we can do is try to be better than we were the day before in all aspects of our lives. So, if anyone (like me) went a bit off the rails this weekend, today is the day to pick ourselves up, dust off, and keep moving forward! We CAN do this!

    Sorry late for Sunday. However, I can switch to Monday if too late. Weight still the same. However, I have a trainer starting Friday once a week. She trains at her home gym, so this is something totally new and exciting for me. If I'm compliant I will boast up to twice a week.

    I forgot to weigh in this morning due to a snow storm and rushing through my morning routine to get on the roads early. Will weigh in tomorrow if that's ok.

    @ABO215 thank you for your assistance. However may I pls ask if it’s okay to have Sunday as my weigh in day. This is more convenient and practical for me. Thanx.

    Got lots of walking in today. Ran errands and brought my newest rescue dog with me. Took a walk through the strip mall parking lot doing leash training and then walked the aisles of our local Petsmart. 🐕
