Hi everyone. We have a few days before weigh-in, but I'm hoping we can start to be more than a weigh-in group. A little chitter chatter can help a lot with motivation. Checking in once a week to say...yes I've been successful or no I haven't (or yes, the scale cooperated, or no, the scale did not) is great, but sometimes, we need the group to help motivate us along the way in order TO BE successful by the end of the week.
I know some groups do challenges and the like. Personally, I'm not so big on them...I'm not a weight loss newbie and so am not keen on randomly adding things to my routine...so I won't be the one to start any up (but there are 60 of us, so I'm sure if one of you started doing them, enough people would find it helpful!) But even just checking in, to say how its going, or to share what's hard, that sort of thing.
In the name of self-organization, shall we try a mid-week check-in? I know Wednesday is the traditional 'hump-day' for the work week, but weekends are just as bad, if not worse, for healthy eating, so why not have a Thursday check-in? To reflect on how the week has gone, and to mentally gird ourselves for the Friday/Saturday/Sunday nexus of social eating evil? I'm going to try to remember to do it this week. Join me if you'd like.0 -

I'm going to weigh-in a day early...today is my birthday, so I went out to eat. I didn't really overindulge that much...but restaurant food is restaurant food, and I fully expect to be bloated tomorrow morning, so I'm not even going to look at the scale before Wednesday!

06/30: Leaving for vacation on the 29th so thats my goal date- Will weigh in on the 28th.
So excited I lost 1.5 lbs. I didn't think that was possible since I am very close to my goal. My MFP goal is 123 so that is pretty close, but won't be easy. On this challenge I put 122 because it would be great to get down to that since I fluctuate a lot. I did great working out during the week. Didn't do so well this weekend since I was in a mood. Gonna work out hard this week. If I loose .5 this week I will be happy. Hope you all have a good week and good luck.0 -
OK OK I am a push over. I will add the last two people also. I will not add anyone else though after 60 to the chart.0

Good idea Tititiana! I will check in on Fridays because the weekends are very challenging for me.0 -

I kind of expected this increase in weight this week. I have been sick for 2 weeks (headaches, nausea, stomach cramps) and after much other advice finally got advice that worked- increase my sodium and potassium levels. I started drinking more sports drinks and a little less water and adding a little salt to my food (before I never used salt on anything) because it's a type of heat exhaustion (not enough salt). Why I am starting to feel better I figured the increased sodium would affect my weight. It's ok though, better than being sick!0 -

I am not suprised at all with this gain. I have been rather lazy with my workouts this week and went over on my calories many days. I think I was in a grumpy mood slump. I also overly enjoyed Friday and Saturday night. Next week WILL be a better week. As soon as everyone has logged their weigh in I will get to work on posting the spreadsheet. I have been updating the info as you guys have been weighing in.
Keep up all the hardwork!0 -

06/01: 136.8lbs Well the last couple of challenges I've joined I have missed my goal. 1.8lbs doesn't seem like much of a goal for the month so I may change it. I made the goal before I knew exactly where I was starting but that's alright I may adjust after a week or 2 depending how things go. I'm only figuring in .5lb a week right now.
