    Hi, just a quick question. How strict is our weigh-in day? I have mine scheduled for Sundays, but I will be out of town and won't have access to a scale on Saturday and Sunday. I was wondering if I could weigh-in on Monday for just this week? Thanks !

    I've checked and that's fine since you're out of town. Sometimes things happen. Thank you for asking the question.

    Last week was hectic for me and I didn't sleep well. (Bad combination!) But I slept great last night and today I'm looking forward to making sure the kitchen is ready for the coming week. Will be prepping veggies and making menus. I function so much better when I've had enough sleep and life is a little better organized.

    @JMarcelle57 That's a Sunday ritual for me. I pre-package all my veggies and fruits for the week and make hard boiled eggs. I find it motivating. I hope you get an entire week of great sleep this week! It makes such a difference!

    How's everyone getting on this week so far? Any tips for avoiding snacks while the kids are home? X

    Snacking is my pitfall too (well, and champagne). I first ask myself if I'm hungry or bored before eating. If I can't stop thinking about food but know I'm not hungry I leave the first floor of my house. I find that if I'm not in reach of the kitchen I think less about food.

    Down 1 lb exactly this first week. I was ready to celebrate because I had 7 meals out last week. Every one of them for work purposes. Then, I went online and saw that our whole team is at a loss (well, those of us who've weighed in so far this week)! I'll pick up my game this week, team! :smiley:

    Pleasantly surprised by what the scale told me this morning. Although I'm only down 0.5 pounds from last week, I was expecting a GAIN because while I was out of town I was not counting my calories or excersizing. I'm a little worried that my body has yet to register all the calories which will result in a later gain, so I'm upping my goal to losing 2 pounds a week for five days to get back on track and hopefully come out at a loss :) it's gonna take focus and lots of excersizing but I think I can do it !

    I'm gonna try to keep within my goal calories too instead of giving myself a 100 calorie leeway like I normal do :p

    Go for it! I'll be with you with the high calorie deficit for this week and *hopefully* with you when we're both down three pounds for weigh in

    @1TheQueenB I get so motivated every time I'm about to hit a new weight decade! I also "earn" a facial at every new decade I hit, so that doesn't hurt. :o

    Most of last week did not go well for weight loss. :(
    But as I got to the beginning of the weekend, I realized that as the team leader I just couldn't post a gain. :#
    So, I was a model healthy-living person all weekend and was rewarded (if not a little pleasantly surprised) with this morning's weigh-in number. :)

    This week, I plan to do better for the entire week. For me that means logging daily, 7+ hours of sleep each night, and avoiding highly processed foods. Oddly enough, when I do that, everything else in life just seems to work better.

    Wishing everyone an amazing week!
