    Weighing in a day early this week as I'm away tonight.

    Happy to see a loss this week - I'm back to tracking properly and being accountable to myself.

    Can't remember if I posted the week 4 results in August, so apologize if this is a duplicate. B)

    I thought you said there were only three teams! What about Gutbusters and Run Track Minds? 🤣

    IDK? They haven't been around for a while. I'm thinking Ashley copied and pasted from an old post and forgot to delete them??

    Hi TBBT!
    I'm Brandi. I've been apart of this challenge for awhile, but I have been rather quiet lately. Between being sick and then spraining an ankle, I haven't put in a lot of effort in either. I am trying to change that this month.

    I am 37. A stay at home/homeschool mom
    This is my only child's senior year and I am so proud but ... I am a little saddened about it being the last year.
    I spend a lot of my free time dabbling with puzzles and watching movies and just being with my family.
    I love strength training but hate cardio. I do like zumba - when I have a buddy to look silly with.

    @brandi_84 Hi Brandi, great to hear from you!

      Hi @brandi_84, it’s so nice to finally learn a little about you. Sorry to hear of your challenges lately but you persevered! We‘re here for you. I agree, I look like a fish out of water when I try Zumba 😅.

      Major internet outage made it impossible to work or login here, but I logged everything this morning. Luckily I didn't care about work, and I don't watch any streaming TV, so I was good. 👍😊

      @murdog3t I hope the vertigo has left you now and you are feeling much better post vaccine. My sister currently has shingles in her eye and says the pain is worse than any splitting migraine she has ever had.

      I will pray for your sister if what I had is any indication of what shingles is like it’s awful.
      I am feeling about 75% better . Went to the physical therapist and he did some treatment that really worked .

      Happy Wednesday 🤗

      Week 1
      PW = 156.2
      CW = 152.1

      * TMI all but this is the result of unimpacted bowels. I’m finally released back to full exercise; I just have to remember not to get too carried away. I’ll do my best to maintain my weight this month as my GI starts storing some again. I dropped into the 146’s after colonic hydrotherapy last week and am much more confident with this 10 day trend weight.

      All - going to try to get caught up on MUAC before work gets too crazy today. Maybe even learn how to do one of those fancy posts that @Krysless2 does. Don't hold your breath on that last part. :D

      Sorry I've been quiet. Still dealing with the side effects of my new rheumatoid arthritis medication. I have decided that it's not worth all the side effects since it's not helping relieve the pain in my hands so this morning was my last dose.

      I didn't even realize what day it was...

      CW: 288.5

      My two oldest went back to school this last week and its canning/heavy harvest season for my garden so I'm barely even on any devices till this slows back down in a couple weeks. I feel like I'm drowning in peppers, tomatillo's, and peaches right now.
