Hi everyone! Since it is Saturday, I will say my successes are losing 27 lbs since having my son 2 months ago. Maintaining my breast milk supply through pumping because he can't latch. Getting my husband exercising again. Breaking my Starbucks addiction and finally getting help for my postpartum depression and anxiety.

@bapcarrier ... just wondering what guidelines and name of the next challenge will be ... I am assuming you have settled on it running until the Saturday before Thanksgiving, as that was one of your suggestions and several people liked that approach. Also, are you keeping it that Wednesday is our reporting day ... I know not everyone posts on that day ... just wondering ... as I am in for it and want to set up my calendar.2

I think everyone agrees, our next challenge will be a 9 week challenge ending the Saturday before Thanksgiving, or November 18th for anyone not in US. How about we call it just plain FALL CHALLENGE? Note, if anyone wants to add an individual challenge, feel free, just like we did for the Summer Heat Challenge.
Format for any newbies - just highlight the part below, copy and paste!

There is my official start. Think i am going to be a bit conservative with my weightloss goal this time.
Just less than 1lb a week! SHOULD be doable

Well, I didn't make my goal, but I am pretty close and
1. I did not eat optimally so I can only blame myself and
2. I did make it to be finally overweight and not obese on the BMI scale
so I am happy enough.!

I met my goal. I'm thrilled!5
