Don't forget to respond to the question of the week if you haven't already: what are three things that make your weight loss journey better/easier? A lot of Gutbusters have already responded, with a mix of process-oriented behaviors (like tracking on MFP) and gear (Fitbit, etc). What works for you?
And a couple weighers I want to be sure I haven't missed from earlier this week:

@kkmark -- Coach @craigo3154 was able to change your starting weight on the spreadsheet (thanks!). Now that you've found the home scale, use it for all your weigh-ins if you can -- not so much because of this challenge, but just so you can better monitor your own progress.
There's a saying around here: same prize for last place as for first!
Doesn't matter where we start, we're all trying to lose!
Thank you1 -

Anyway, my weight loss will tell over time whether I'm hitting the right deficit or not.
Don’t guess! Weigh everything!! Do you have a scale? It’s been a game changer in my life.

I do have a scale, and I weigh food at home as often as possible. For the enchiladas from scratch the other night, I weighed all the meat before adding it, for example, but I didn't measure out by the tablespoon how much oil I used to saute the onions and garlic, though. Then there are some times over the week where I eat at a salad bar, and I eyeball how much tuna I'm adding to my salad, or how much cream or milk I add to my coffee when I get coffee out. Those little bits add up, for sure, and at this point where I'm homing in on the last 20 pounds, I definitely need to get better about more precisely measuring those little bits.2 -
I thought I was on gutbusters this month but I guess not. Please advise...0

I’m feeling slightly discouraged with myself. I’ve been over calorie count nearly everyday. Today I’m using as my cheat day instead of Sunday. I ate out twice. I was fairly disciplined in the foods I chose and kept it as simple as possible but I still ate out. I am hoping this doesn’t affect my weight too badly for weigh in. Very disappointing.
I am still loving the journey and enjoying all that TBL challenge has to offer and I hope everyone else’s week has been head and tails above mine (eating wise).2 -
@dommylifts - Just remember tomorrow is a New Day! Try again tomorrow and the next, and so on. Some days and weeks are harder than others. Stay positive and motivated! Good luck.2

Really trying to stick with 3 meals per day. No more snacking. I find that derails me pretty fast, snacks add up way to quick.3

1. Fitbit/MFP. I'm very numbers oriented and seeing a numerical representation of the effort I'm putting in really helps me feel like I'm actually doing something even if the scale isn't moving
2. 9round. I have finally found an exercise I'm willing to get out of bed at 4:45 am for! Enjoying the workouts make it much more likely that I actually go to the workouts
3. Co-workers. My job has this "health group" where we all meet Friday mornings and share tips - it's great! Our boss even bought us a scale. One member in it always runs after work and I feel like if she's doing it, I need to as well and I've been much more accountable with my running - got down to a 9 min/mile for my last 5k!2 -
