I need to be more accountable during the weekend... I feel like I do well Monday-Thursday but then by Friday, I fall off the eating right wagon. This weekend I'll be going to Chicago for a bachelorette party so I know I'll be drinking a whole lot of extra calories. I'll have to be good and take it a day at a time!

Keep plugging away team! We know we can do this!!

@wahmx3 - hope it goes well for your family.
@kaitkolo - Have fun this wknd! Drink lots of water! That always helps!!

On a semi happy note, I've made it into ONEderland... now to make sure that I keep it there this week. The struggle is real when you are right on the edge. My BFF is getting married this weekend so I need to watch consuming those liquid calories cause I know if I do, I'm not gonna move the next day, let alone run them off!

Congrats on getting to ONEderland, @sandkp! That's great!! I am so close, that I was a little disappointed after my weigh in last night. I lost 7lbs in one month, so I am very happy. I was just really hoping to get out of 200 though. Next week...

Thanks @enuf200 my usual weigh in day is Tuesday. Didn't know if I would be busy this week so did Monday and had an even 200.00 on the scale. Needless to say, this mama had to stick with the routine and try again Tuesday morning and it worked. That day makes a difference for me most weeks. 7 lbs in a month is great! Sending pixie dust to help you jump that huge line. Funny how 200.01 and 199.9 even make such a huge change in your attitude. Good luck and let us know when you get there!!!

Thanks @BJerzy. You have to take care of you. Yeah, we are in a challenge and we can use the points so we can rank higher... but what does that get us in life? If we rock each week to the best of our ability and put forth a good effort as a team, we've already won. If you push too hard too fast, you only hurt yourself with more setbacks. Keep your head up and know that you do what you can and we appreciate all that you do. You haven't given up on us, you are here and trying so you haven't given up on yourself, and lots of us are behind you so we haven't given up on you either!

What started out as individuals in a challenge has turned into more than a team to compete... we are a support group that I for one hope keeps going strong long after the spring challenge! We can rock right into the next one being that much stronger as a unit and a team.

Friends in life help each other, carry each other, listen to each other, support each other, laugh and cry with each other, celebrate each other... and I have to say even though we are miles and miles apart and may never meet... we are friends! At least that's how I feel!

I love this! The more points we get, the harder we are working. However, support is key to continuing on the journey. It would be great for our team to stick together into the next challenge.

I'm up for signing up together next time... maybe we can get a list in a couple weeks of those that want to do the next challenge so we have a head start on that list before summer starts making everyone bat crazy!

That sounds so fun @enuf200! I'm going to a wedding tonight for my bestie... nothing like spring/summer dress with no sleeves and 25-35° weather. Guessing liquid heat for me tonight! Think spring has already had a drink or two.. she is messed up!

Sorry i havent posted here in a while. Ive tried to keep up with the spreadsheets though. I had a really big show last weekend so am finally a bit more free. I have been so hungry the last couple of days and am having trouble staying under my limit. I worked out hard at the gym 4 days in a row and i wonder if that's why. Anyone ever feel like that?
