    Good morning, sunshine! Thank you to all who participated in last week’s mini-challenge. Let's buckle down and rock these last two weeks of the month!!

    This week’s mini-challenge is to post an NSV (non-scale victory) you have had this week. Are your clothes fitting better? Have you dropped a size? Are people noticing your weight loss? What other ways have you noticed your weight loss other than the scale?

    Today we’re looking for weigh-ins from:

    @BonnieHosk85 can I weigh in tomorrow?? I had a really busy morning and I ate/drank before I was able to weigh myself! I don't like when it isn't accurate! :)

    Exercise? 20 minutes walking up a pretty steep hill - don't think I could have even done it a month ago.

    Under calorie budget? Yes. AND I found a new delicious treat that's only 100 calories 😍 yasso frozen yogurt bars Caramel swirl flavor.

    Tracked everything? Yes, I usually weigh things but couldn't at lunch so tried to at least over-estimate. Had a catered dinner on a lovely river cruise!

    My non-scale victory: when I sit in my bathtub my hips no longer touch both sides! I've taken only showers for the last 6 months or so because it's depressing to not fit in a bathtub, but this weekend I was going to try to soak my stiff legs and low-and-behold my hips fit!

    It was SO good - and satisfied that indulgent, treat-y cravingI'm sold on the yasso.

    To the whole team: Have you discovered any healthy versions of treats/snacks/meals that taste just as good as the hugely caloric original?

    Good morning! Great loss, @fe452436! :star:

    Today we’re looking for weigh-ins from:

    @12Sarah2015
    @audreypawdrey
    @BB_1033 - are you accurately weighing and measuring your food and drink? Are you getting all your water in? Are you taking a new medication? Hopefully you will be able to figure out if something needs to be adjusted. <3

    Ashley will be posting the Week 3 results later today for us, but I thought you might like a snapshot of the month so far. Team, you really rebounded from week 2 and are doing awesome. Don't be discouraged if you've gained or haven't had a loss. Don't give in to thoughts of giving up. You will have better weeks if you stay the course. We've got each other and we can do this!!! <3

    @BonnieHosk85 I'm fasting and keeping my carbs and sugar low. Calories are low. Always get my water in and more. I am "late" again so I'm guessing hormone problem. I've no clue. I'm thinking of just trying to go back vegetarian again, it worked before a few years back. Exercise has been slack too bc my 1 yr old has gotten to his clingy stage so maybe that's it as well.
