Emotional Challenge:
What was your moment of clarity? What was it that made you say "Enough is enough; I am taking control of my life?" and how does remembering that help you through the emotional and life changing journey of taking off the weight?

    Wish us well Ladies, taking my 12y/o to All Children Hospital, hoping for a diagnoses. Our fingers are crossed for something less than what we think it will be, Tourette's syndrome, but even if that's what it is, at least we have answers.

    Hope everyone has a good weigh-in today, I won't be back on til tonite if at all, depending on how the day goes.

    Starting: 261
    Starting SAHMU: 241
    Week 5: 230.6
    Weekly +/- : -2lbs
    Total +/- : -30.4lbs!
    Goal: Did not acheieve my goal to kiss the 230s goodbye this week. Still, lost 2 lbs, so that's great. I'm a little disappointed because this loss did accomplish my goal of losing 30lbs, but I fee like that is tarnished by that stupid .7lb more I needed to lose to weigh in at 229.9. That would have been great! But alas, it was not to be. So my goal for this week is to keep working hard and see that number drop below 230. More importantly, I felt really good about how hard I worked this week and I want to keep feeling like that, so regardless of the number on the scale, my real goal is to exercise every moment I am able

    This week's challenge looks awesome!!!

    Wow, I just wanted to give some major props for all you ladies and the calorie burn this week! I thought black team was really kicking it, then I saw pink teams calorie burn!!! And people like to call me a machine? You ladies are AMAZING!!! WTG everybody!

    p.s. Im super excited/scared for the challenge this week, love the new stuff though its keeps things fresh. I made a goal for myself this week as well, Im going to work an extra 30 minutes, rest in the evenings and try not to take ANY days off, it seems like my body decides its going to rebound on the weight and I usually end up with a 1 or 2 lbs gain if I take a day off, this really scares me because in the future I know this journey will never be over even when I do reach my goal weight!

    Nutrition challenge for this week looks good! I tend to eat a lot of the same things (I've had the same breakfast for weeks now). This will make me look a little closer at the specific nutrition intakes. That being said, there is no way I'm meeting the carb goal for today. It's my b-day and I will be indulging in a piece of cake. But it's on for the other days! Good luck everyone
