    Good Morning team! Just wanted to update you on a few things!
    First of all, Nicklang02 has beem Eliminated b/c she did not weigh in on time! For the past few weeks she weighed in after 11pm each Friday! I am not sure what happened this week, but this is an example of why we should NOT wait until the last minute to weigh in....anything can happen to cause us to get distracted, and therefore we forget!
    So for our last weigh in plzzzzzz try to weigh in ASAP on your weigh in day! Waiting until 10-11pm will not madgically make you lose any extra weight!
    Getting eliminated affects the entire team...especially those who are really working hard in this challenge to win!

    Also, we place 2nd this week, but i truly believe that we would have placed 1st again if Nicklang would have weighed in ON TIME! We needed her to weigh in with a 1 lb loss....she had been losing 2-4 lbs each week. I just wanted to share an example of how your accountability affects everyone involved!

    Congrats on 2nd place, we still did an awesome job! Thank you team for your best efforts!
    If we focus "AS A TEAM" and work together this week, we will win the BIGGEST LOSER CHALLENGE!!!!! :):DB)
    This week will be very important, and i need EVERYONE that has not pushed themselves, to try harder than you have all month long!
    We need 100% participation in the upcoming week, and we need EVERYONE to make sure you weigh in ON TIME!
    Let's get this win TEAM!!!! We can do this!


    *** I am not sure if we will get a replacement for nicklang b/c of this being the last week of the challenge!!!!

    Great message @wahagent05

    No, you will not get a replacement. Your team is affected this week due to an elimination but going forward this will not affect the team in Week 4 or for the finale.

    You guys are currently in the lead for the finale. Don't let that fool you though. There are other teams hot on your tail and because winners are based on % anyone can take the winning spots. You guys have worked hard, don't stop now.

    Good luck!!

    Hi Everyone,

    I was called into work earlier today and had to return home due to not feeling well. I just got home and I'm going to go have a sleep in hopes it does me well.

    In the event I don't get the weekly stats posted later this evening I will do it tomorrow morning. In the meantime, if you go into the spreadsheet you will at least see the winning teams.

    Sorry :neutral:

    Great job team on coming in second place!! Here comes the final week for April!! Team Thin It WILL Win It!!

    What are you going to do or have you done to make this week your best week yet??

    My goal til my weigh in day is no eating fast food. This won't be too difficult for me because I don't eat out a lot. But when I do, it is usually not a good thing and I don't make the best choices.

    Also I plan to workout 5 days this week. 3 days of treadmill and 2 days doing the resistant band.

    Let's bring it home this week team!!

    It can be difficult. We can't change the past but we can change the choices we make in the next moment! Stay strong, you got this!

    Just finished an intense workout on the treadmill. Did some intervals of running, side stepping and backwards walking all at an incline! After I worked up a sweat of doing 30 minutes on the treadmill I jumped in the my 70 degree pool and did some exercises in there! First time being in the pool this summer and it felt great! I do not plan to take advantage of my pool this summer and am going to make it a big part of my workout routine!!

    Hope everyone has a great Sunday!!

    Stay strong this week team!!

    The weekend is always extremely hard for everyone! I think we overeat on the weekends b/c we are so disciplined during the week! One cheat day per week is allowed...just try to enjoy your cheat day in moderation! You should still be using portion control on this day as well! A cheat day doesn't mean that you OVEREAT, it simply means that you may enjoy the food that you desire on this day, but in amounts that will not cause you to get off track!

    It is hard to be disciplined w/o a break...this is what causes so many ppl to fail! Enjoy your favorite food, just do so ONCE A WEEK, & in MODERATION!!!!! :)
    ...then on MONDAY...get focused, and get back to healthy eating, workouts and drinking your water! Set small goals, and reach them!!!!
    Good Luck everyone!!!

    ***ATTENTION TEAMMATES***
    I need EVERYONE to get serious about weighing in ON TIME! We have already lost 1 team member, and have come really close to losing others!
    Plz DO NOT wait until 11:59 pm to weigh in! Your team is really counting on you this week to help take this WIN!
    EVERY POUND COUNTS...including YOURS! If you fail to weigh in on time you will be ELIMINATED...this challenge will be fair to ALL TEAMS involved!
    Once you know your weight, weigh in ASAP, so that your pounds will be counted! We are depending on you to be accountable this week!!!!! Plz DO NOT let your team down!!!
