    Well Mondays are generally my weigh ins. So if i can join a day late i would love to. i am at 201.4 so by Christmas would be 171.4.
    That would be awesome to be that weight again its been 5 years, since i had a miscarriage and cervix cancer.

    I'm in! Just like you I've been on MFP for a few weeks but the number on the scale keeps going up and down as I tend to be good at the beginning of the week, lose some, then have a few drinks towards the end of the week and put it all back on. But now I'm going to be good (that includes no alcohol!) and it will be great to get some support from you all!

    AND....calorie accountability! Stay at or under calorie goal. (not under more than 50 calories!)

    MUCH LOVE and SuPPORT!!

    Tausha!

    Are we allowed to use the calories burned from exercise?

    YES!!! EAt your exercise calories! It adds them to your goal when you post your exercise!

    REMEMBER to add me as a friend if you would like daily challenges! That way we can all stay updated!

    Also, If you want to post daily accountibility you can... Like..." I drank 12 glasses of water today but didn't exercise" (example only!)


    OK...so I'm going to go post challenge for tomorrow! Our team just keeps growing! Hang in there everyone!

    I can't find where all the challenges for today are posted so I'm trying to remember them:

    45 minutes of continuous movement: Done! I just got back from a 50 minute walk with my hubby and kids. Plus I walked around campus today.

    Drink 10 glasses of water: Done as far as I know. The only thing I've drank today besides water was a cup of milk. I always keep water beside me. I kept track of how much water I drank when I joined MFP but I don't anymore because I think its too tedious.

    Be under your calorie goal by not more than 50 calories: I'll be under my goal for sure but I don't know about the 50 calorie part. I earned a lot of calories today from exercise and I don't want to force myself to eat if I'm not hungry.

    If any of these goals are wrong please correct me.

    You got it right!! I am having trouble eating my exercise calories too!
