Welcome Fat2Fit Challengers

Here is your Team chat room! This is where you weigh in every week, post your goals and progress, discuss any issues or topics of interest, share ideas, support your teammates, receive help when you need it, and dream big. Cheer each other on to success!
We are beginning the March 2020 Challenge - We have six great teams this month. The group and team leaders are as follows:
Our Moderators:
Liselyn - @jugar
Beka - @beka3695
Lisa - @cafelelia
Teresa - @TeresaW1020

Our Team Captains:
Mission Slimpossible - @broncobuddee and @TeresaW1020
Trimstones - @mulecanter and @jessicakrall8
Weight No More - @sleepymom5 and @cafelelia
Waist Aways - @jugar and @micki48
Shrinking Assets - @Boehle and @beka3695
Downsizers - @lindamtuck2018 and (open)

Our Team Motivators:
Mission Slimpossible - @AustinRuadhain
Trimstones - @Angmarie28
Weight No More - @nstephenson01
Waist Aways - @Terytha and @evangsimmons170
Shrinking Assets - @TheMrWobbly (Fitness Captain)
Downsizers - @UTMom81 and @Kres567

HOW IT ALL WORKS:
Every challenger weighs in on their chosen day, and at the end of each week, the tallies are done to determine the team and individuals with the most weight lost. The best losers are announced with full fanfare every Sunday. The team competition is all in good spirits - may the most losing win!

If you need a week off, a break, a change of weigh-in day - just ask your Captain here on your team chat page. If you miss two weigh-ins in a row without asking for a break, you will be dropped from the team, so be sure to ask if you are travelling, sick, or just needing some time off.

In addition to your own team, there are F2F Full Group CHALLENGES. You can do all or none - it's up to you. Participating adds a lot to your success, so we hope to see you there often! These can involve anything fitness, health, or nutrition - and they’ll get you moving, thinking, and learning about this journey. Check the “Announcements” section for full group challenges.

Let’s show our fellow challengers some F2F love!! Introduce yourselves right away, and let the new month begin.

THANKS!

    I am Beka, one of your Team Captains and Group Moderator. My counterpart and bestie is Julie, aka @boehle.

    I am 43, married, mom of 2 daughters, Mimi of one amazing grandson, and human mom to 3 fur babies.

    I live in the beautiful mountains of Northern Georgia. I have no concept of really cold weather or driving in snow...

    I started my journey 2 years ago at 242 lbs, lost down to 174 and maintained almost 9 months before gaining back to 232 in July. I am a human yo yo. Have even considered getting a "DUNCAN" tattoo.. JK - but really... I have not weighted in the entire month of February as I have been out of town for the birth of my grandson. I will be returning home this weekend and will restart... again.

    My Stats:
    5'7' and 43
    226 ish last I checked.... I will do an official march weigh in when I return home Sunday.

    March Goals:
    - stop eating like a college student away from home for the first time.
    - lose something...
    - focus on consistency of steps - minimum 6k a day.

    If you have not already, feel free to friend me. Please make your diaries open. Your teammates (umm - or me) might want to borrow your ideas that keep you in check.

    Hi All, I'm Kate, KilobyKilo, a Brit living in Central Portugal. I've had a rubbish start to 2020 in terms of weight and fitness goals, but, I feel ready now to make March my month...

    I'm going to log EVERY SINGLE DAY, I'm going to up my exercise, get my running training consistent (under 2 months to the next race), and I'm going to be more active on here...

    I'm also hoping all of that will see my recent big gain melt away by next weigh in and then finally get back into those 170s...... Let's see!

    I really enjoyed the Feb mods challenge and am looking forward to the photos this month.

    Today, day one of the month, is all about food prep here... let's do this!

    March Steps
    1st March 17507

    A crazy day while I ate a lot and moved a lot. Made it crazier by lifting at late night when it was almost closing time in the gym. Good to feel I didn't miss my stronglift session!

    Last baby pics for a while... Promise!!!

    I named the passy pic “You will never sleep again!” 🤣🤣🤣
    Adorable! What a head of hair! My daughter was a bit of a baldy (and for the first couple years of life her head grew faster than her hair so didn’t have much hair till she was about 2 yrs!) so I am always impressed by babies who have a nice head of hair. Though, I am sure Blake would be adorable even if he didn’t have the hair! Am so glad all is well 😀

    I goofed! So sorry --

    for Third Place February Pounds Lost - it should have been @Emmajhare with 9.5 pounds tossed to the curb. @timibotkin was also amazing, but I somehow overlooked the quiet little 9.5 sitting there on the spreadsheet. Sorry!
