@LesIckaBod, you have done so well and come so far! What an inspiration you are!!

@BB_1033, we have you down for Monday weigh-ins. We can certainly change that if you'd like. Just let me know.

@Elsper24, nice loss! Congrats!

@shalvy2007, we've got your weigh-in day as Monday. Would you like that to change to Sunday, or is it Monday where you are?

@matthewsfive, same here!! I was able to walk two times last week without much pain. So grateful!

@tina3311c, congrats on that great loss! I deal with both as well and it's hard when meds get in the way, but we can do this!!

@shadow2641, congrats on the loss! You'll see that number again very soon! You've got this!

QOTW: When you think about your weight goals, what does success look like for you?

Being able to see a photograph of myself or look in the mirror and not cringe. We went out last night with friends and I had my husband take a photo of me before we left. I did a collage of the "beginning" photo next to last night's photo. I'm only down 18 pounds between the two photos but I'm beginning to see a change.

@12Sarah2015, congrats on your loss! We've got your weigh-in day as a Wednesday. Just verifying that you want it to be a Monday.

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? recumbent bike 20 minutes, 6.24 miles
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

Question of the Week

When you think about your weight goals, what does success look like for you? I challenge you to try to describe your success without referring to numbers (on scales, on clothes, on weight-lifting, etc).

* Success to me is being fit enough to run and not feel puffed. We are designed to move and this is part of being healthy. I'm still working on this goal (sick this week so I've got a pass for a while)
* success to me is eating natural foods. We have switched as a family to brown rice and everyone is loving it.

For me it is a couple of things:
1) loosing my belly fat - Like most men in their mid 40's this is where we store our weight. I have been achieving this goal and notice when I buckle my pants and wear certain cloths.

2) better health - I just had some blood work done and my numbers have improved since I have started back at MFP / TBL Monthly Challenge. My doctor is happy and says "Keep at it". The more weight I loose the less my body has to work while I am over weight.

@shalvy2007, sorry. That just meant they start this Sunday. Your weigh-in can be whatever day during the week you would like. We'll move you to Sunday if that works for you.

@gf7004, great loss!! Congrats!

So I was sick the past few days, which I'm sure is where some of the loss came from, but I'm hoping I can still maintain it.

I am so mad at myself! But I am determined to lose 3 pounds next week,and I really honestly mean it. I've been eating a lot this week. Just been so hungry. But it has to stop!

@BonnieHosk85 This is my first challenge so sorry if this seems like a silly question. For week 2 do we use our week 1 weights as our previous weight or the weight we registered with stays our previous weight throughout the whole month?

@BB_1033, no worries. Use week 1's weight as your PW.

@sarah22680, I bet it was a great time, though! Please check your inbox. I've sent you a message.

@zimborunner, it's going to be a great month for you. You'll see!!
