Mini Challenge
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 Watson Mill State Park in GA. It is about 4 miles from our house, so we go hiking, walking, canoeing, or swimming almost every other day (at least 3-4x's a week) If I ever find myself homeless, I am going to live in this bridge!
@BEASTFIELD314 & @cdavisdeva I would take a Christmas Park or a day at the beach ANY time someone offered it too
I'm sorry, I also don't know how to use the spoiler setting either.
Confession: I had to use a stock footage photo bucket pic of Watson Mill because I don't have any photos that don't have random friends and people that don't want to be tagged.
I choose @roamingtiger (because I like your screen name)

Daily Post: Tuesday September 5th
Track: Yes
Calories: Under
Exercise: Yes - 30 min morning walk with kiddos and 22 min evening ab workout
Goals/day: Good bit under on calories but balanced out from being over yesterday. So often I feed the kiddos and get busy with household duties, put them to bed and realized I haven't eaten dinner (and then it's too late to eat a full meal). We used to all sat down and eat together, but since the new baby it's hard to do sometimes. Going to work on that. I always enjoy sitting down as a family at meal time. It'll also help that I'm not eating so late as well.3 -

Daily Post: Wednesday, September 5th
Track: Yes
Calories: Under, but very poor food choices
Exercise: 43 minutes on the treadmill @ 3.5 speed
Goal: Ok, today was not a good day with handling stress eating. I forgot my lunch at home so I had to munch on the goodies that were at our union meeting, very poor choices! I was very shocked that when I logged everything that I was under my calorie count for the day. Tomorrow is the first day back with kids and I will do better!!2 -

Hey there everyone!
I will be going through and updating the spreadsheet today with weights and daily posts. I will try to respond the best I can.... this has not been a great week at work, and soccer season (3 of my kids are in) and dance (2 of my kids are in) just started - so I have literally been on the go every. single. day. and. night. Combined with my 2nd job... you get the idea.
I am proud of each and every single one of you. Just know that I am here, cheering you on!!!! I hope things settle down after this week. LOL!
Today, Thursday, there are no scheduled weigh ins! Wooohooo! However, I do not have weigh ins for the following people still:
@Djou11 @Fit_fad @shea2986 @bisonpitcher @rhyahcf
May all you have a fabulous day! Like I said, I will try to respond the best I can.
Daily Post: Wednesday, September 5th
Track: Yes
Calories: Under
Exercise: While one of kids were at soccer practice, I walked around the field about 15 times - almost 3 miles in total. Why not try to multitask!
Gotta relax a little. There is a on on my plate, which causes great stress... great stress leads to lots of eating. Must have willpower and resist.

Hey there @mellee1430 -
Welcome to the team! Basically, the track section is just a yes/no on whether you tracked your calories and food intake for the day. A lot of people find that is one of the best and easiest ways to lose weight is to start logging all your calories. You wouldn't believe how many times I thought there was a certain amount in something and it was like 5x that amount!!!1 -
