    Good job! Mondays are my normal weigh-in and I was actually down too. Hopefully I can maintain it/lose more by this Friday for the group weigh-in :)

    Hope everyone is doing well!

    Steph

    Good job Steph!

    Hello Purple team!!!!! THANK YOU for the congrats and keeping the team alive while I was away. I have terrible news.....between the wedding and the honeymoon, I gained 9 pounds........no excuses. I just am wanting to apologize. I am back on track and ready to become a better person. I am sorry to bring you all down with me this week :( hoping for a better week....trust me, I am drinking a ton of water to flush out the water weight and booze weight!! eek!!

    Wow Bryanna! Becks from YOUR challenge here!
    Congrats on your wedding and all the best!
    I'm with you........celebratory events and holidays are no place for moderation!!!
    I'm in Spain at the moment and have been going wild! I'm dreading the scales when I get back BUT I've been having an amazing time.

    If you fancy doing another challenge after this one, I'm up for it cos it'll prob take me til the end of this one to get back where I started!

    That's the same place I am in right now....it is going to take this challenge to get me back.....but, I need to make sure not to be upset with myself because I don't want to crawl into a deep hole of sadness and just keep eating! I am such an emotional eater that I need to know what triggers that. And to me when I have a bad morning, I saw screw it for the rest of the day. NOT this time......I can do it! Have fun in Spain :)

    bryanna and becks, don't worry it happens! I am so jealous of SPAIN, I hope you are having a wonderful time. That is on my list of travel abroad, Spain and Greece. I have been to Italy and LOVED IT. The great thing of when I was in Italy, I maintained my weight because I was doing so much walking.

    It was very very hot so not much walking done!
    Lots of boozing and eating tho! Spaniards LOVE chorizo!!! Very very fattening......and all the bread!
    I'm home now tho not yet hit the scales! I think I will hit the floor when I do! Lol
    Back on track soon, then my target is Christmas!

    We can do it!

    I am happy to say, my husband has been an inspiration this week. He has committed to walking 3 miles a day, and so far 3 days in, he hasn't missed a day! I didn't do it on Tuesday, so yesterday I did an extra 1.6, then I'll make the rest up this week. Once I get into this routine, I think I am going to go back to Jillian Michaels Body Revolution, I need to do some strength training too!

    Oh my goodness, I gained again!!!! What is going on with me!!! It is the week before my period, and I'm going to blame it on that. :sad:

    I'm going to be super strict about calorie counting and hopefully I can still make my challenge goal. But I've been going in the WRONG direction. Sorry team! I feel like I'm letting everyone down, most of all myself. Not a great way to start the weekend.

    Even though the eating hasn't been fantastic, my husband and I have been getting in our daily walks and it has been wonderful, so I am trying to end this post on a positive note. :flowerforyou:

    Hey Team,

    I'm waaay up this week! :sad:

    I know it's some water weight and I was on vacation all last week and it definitely played a role. Sorry team! I'm getting my head back in the game. I got engaged last week while at the beach so I have even more motivation now!

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!
