    Not a good start at all, and I’m sorry I’m two days late! I was out of town for Labor Day until late last night. Like a few people on here, August was not good at all for me and I’m determined to make up for lost time. I’m going to do my best to give up sugar as that is my downfall. Please friend me if you’d like and are doing the same!

    @beastfield314 I’m sorry for the late reply. Won’t happen again as I should be in town for the rest of sept!

    Track: Unfortunatley I haven’t for the past two days.
    Calories: under
    Exercise: Yes - Orange Theory - 1 hour - walking - 1 hour
    Goal: 198lbs by Sept 31st.

    @hsuarez1991 is this the post you're referring to when you say that you had your weight in, I don't see another post that has a current weight, just this one with a goal weight. Could you maybe re-post it? I wonder if somehow there was a glitch.

    Hi everyone! I hope that I find motivation with this group. I hadn't weighed myself in a year and when I did I gained 40 pounds and I was devastated. I had a mental breakdown and it was not pretty. Now that I have calmed down I am ready to kick things into high gear.
    My live in boyfriend is currently in Thailand and I miss him dearly to where it has caused me to eat junk food, so I am trying to get that under control until he gets back on the 12th. I eat a vegan diet, but I manage to find junk food like Oreos. I need help, and I hope to find it with you guys :)

    Heidi

    Safe travels, @hakaiser1. Today was a great Labor Day for me as well. Are you traveling for work or for personal? Drinking enough water is a big struggle for me. I think I am supposed to drink like 100 oz a day...

    Calories: spot on
    Exercise: Yes bike ride..2 hours
    Goals/Day: a nice lazy holiday....

    Glad you had a nice, lazy day! But still got a bike ride in. WOOOOOOOOO! Do you just go around a park, your neighborhood, or trails? We have the Katy Trail out this way. Its a huge trail - I have no idea how people do it!!!

    Track: yes
    Calories: under
    Exercise: nightly walk 3.6miles 60mins ran 3rd of mile 4 mis.
    Daily Goals: obtain Ecto-containment unit permit from the EPA. Will try to do more of the same the rest of the week and up it a little each week.

    Let me know if you get that permit. I have been trying to get mine up and operational, but those pencil pushers keep making me turn it off... soon I fear something strange in the neighborhood. Not sure who I would call then...


    We are usually out on a rail trail, the C&O canal towpath (184 miles in length so lots of different places to go) or actual mountain bike trails. The mountain bike trails are a new addition for me and my skills at hopping over and navigating around obstacles definitely need work! Yesterday we did a few hours on the canal.

    That is my weigh-in. Did I not format it correctly?

    @hsuarez1991 I think we found the "goal" part confusing, can you just put current weight or "CW" that way, we know what to look for :smile: Thanks, and sorry about the confusion!

    @AB0215 - okay I see now. I confused the daily challenge lost with the formatting for the weekly weigh-in post. Thanks!

    @hsuarez1991 It's not a problem, sorry if I wasn't clear in my explanation. You can post the daily post and your weight together, just as long as it has "CW" or "current weight" so we know that's your current weight for the week. Thanks for posting your current weight :smile:

    I just wanted to say - I am proud of all of us. We are all doing our best every day and THAT is what matters!

    I have an optional mini-challenge to get us through the week. It's not fitness related, its not health related. Just fun, and a good way to get to know each other better.

    Here is how it works - I am going to find a picture of my "happy place" (make sure it is forum appropriate, lol) and post it here. Tell a little about it and what it means to me. Then I will tag someone from our team - anyone - and it is their turn. Keep it going until we all get to post! (PS - I use the "spoiler" tag just so there isn't 100 pictures trying to load at once!)

    My happy place is:
    0lxonf4tpzvx.jpg
    This is my happy place - Santa's Magical Kingdom... because as a tradition, all of us (all 8) go ever year. Yes, it is cheesy and corny, and yes, my oldest groans every year. But this makes me happy because it is a wonderful time of year and we get to spend it as a family!

    I choose @cdavisdeva to go next!

    Daily Post: Tuesday, September 4th

    Track: Unable to accurately add food from today’s potluck
    Calories: Unsure..so I’m saying no
    Exercise: 35 minute Kettlebell workout and 15 minute walk around the track

    Goal: I was careful at our potluck, ate baked chicken, veggies, salad, and had one small slice of homemade cheesecake. However, I’m sure it put me over my daily calorie count. My success was getting out and walking for 15 minutes between meetings. It was nice to get outside after being stuck in a meeting for 2 hours. Tomorrow’s goal is to work on increasing my water intake. The last few day's I haven't been meeting my normal goal of at least 64 ounces.

    I had not a single drink for 10 days!!! And I was eating super healthy. But this morning I woke up and I was so hungry and needed just carbs! I ate a whole pack of chocolate buns.... so I will be totally over today. The weather here is great today. Maybe I will take the boys swimming later. Already done my workout this morning: 1 hour tabata...

    Things like that happen! Don't let it get you down. The key is that you understood why it happened, and can create a plan to deal with it if that type of hunger strikes again. And, it sounds like you have a plan to work some of that off!
