    A big shout out to Hush and Team LMFAO.. You guys ROCK! Congrats!!! :happy:

    I know everyone in this challenge rocks, ok ok... some are more of a soft rock or maybe even a little adult contemporary, :tongue: but your still doing it, and that's what counts.

    I know I struggle each and every day to make the right food choices. Let's face it, for those of us who are here becasue we love food or have self control issue, each day can be a struggle. Most of my adult life I've eaten not to live but for pleasure. Meaning: I could have had the grilled chicken but always chose the fired chicken isntead, french fries over sweet potato and what the hell is a veggie and why is it on my plate. OK, I have gotten away from that thinking now and I am eating much better, but again everyday can and sometimes is a struggle. Here at work, my coworkers are eating junk food all day long, bringing in Popeyes or burger king and I am only 100 feet or so from the dining facility and the burger king and the little grab and go shoppette which the equivelent of a 7-11. So each day, I have to struggle to make the right choices. Since I have been on MFP and had the great support of all of you and others on here, that struggle has become easier, because I know I am not alone.

    Now that I have finished going off the deep end, I just want to say how glad I am to be doing this with all of you. this challnege has been a lot of fun. I really hope we can get the people and motivation together to do another RockStar challenge when this one is over.

    You are so inspiring to me. I appreciate how supportive you are so much. I just hope you get the same support when you are struggling or need a boost. :flowerforyou:

    So random question for everyone - just to find out more about the wonderful rockstars - what animal (real or imagined) would be your mascot if you had a mascot?

    I believe mine would be a talking penguin - they are so darn adorable!

    It's all good. Don't let this challenge turn into more stress for you! At the end of the day, you're on this journey for you and no one else, and if you're journey is getting a little rough and tumble then you don't have to explain yourself to anyone, just do what's good for you to help you get through it. We're all here for you, rooting for you!!!

    Well, my favorite animal is the snake ( i know, weird), but to be honest, based on my personality, I'd say that my mascot would be some sort of teddy bear. A teddy bear that can be vicious when it has to be, but for the most part is sweet and totally chill all the time.

    I can't speak for all of Team DMB but several of us are already on the waiting list for a petite lap giraffe.

    Viva la Petite lap giraffe!!!!!

    So, I think I'm going to start weighing in early. Saturday mornings are my new weigh in days. I have the awesomesauce Rock Star challenge and another 30lb challenge I just joined and to keep my weight loss tracking consistent (and not drive myself crazy!) I'm going to weigh in for both on the same day. So, for this week's loss for Team DILIH....it's down 3.2 pounds for me:) Yay me!

    Last week's Rock Star weight: 188
    This week: 184.8
    Loss: 3.2 pounds!

    Woop woop!

    Good morning all. I hope we are all off to a great weekend. Just want to send lots of well wishes to our Dear Team mate Ted (TDGee) who is off traveling for family business. I know he is having a stressful weekend and I just want to wish him the best.

    Where are my other DMBers at this fine weekend? Are you all drinking your water, not mixed with scotch, I hope? Are we logging? I have been slacking on the logging lately. I know, not good, but I am trying to get back to it.

    I had a great gym workout yesterday with some mad cardio mixed in. I think today I will tone it back a hair and start with taking the dogs for a walk, then maybe later in the day, I will hit some harder cardio, but no weights today,. My shoulders/chest and triceps are kaput today.

    I hope all the teams have a great weekend and post some great weight loss numbers. I will be weighing in tomorrow since I forgot this morning and got up and ate already.


    @roro, I'm liking your new challenge avatar.. go bootie-buster!!

    I have to do that too! I'm participating in this challenge, the Pin-up Girls challenge and the Harry Potter Challenge. Luckily all the weigh-in fall on either Sunday or Monday, so it's not that bad. But whatever I weigh Sunday morning is the weight I go with for all of them.

    Team DILIH weigh in-
    LW- 134
    CW- 134

    YUCK!!!!! I WILL NOT PLATEAU!!!!!! I am working way to freaking hard to not see results!!! Although when I really think about this past week (lots of stress, someone else making food choices for me, etc) I guess I'd rather maintain than gain. Its just hard to see the same number on the scale.
