I have to quit this challenge, I have some family stuff that has come up and I don't have the time to focus on checking in here. For those that I am friends with, I will still be logging and exercising, and participating in the FitBit challenges as long as you keep inviting me! I loved this group, you guys got me within a few pounds of my goal weight after my second baby. I wish you all the best with your healthy journeys. Thanks for letting me hang out here for the last few months!
@susanpiper57, we will miss you, Megan, and I hope your family stuff gets settled very soon, but I understand how time can be a limiting factor. Best of luck on your weight loss goals and your half marathon coming up shortly!! Feel free to pop by anytime and let us know how you are doing!!1 -

Week 4
Previous weight 211.2
Current weight 210.0
@Ar_cervantes, another great week and another loss, Amanda!! Next week....the single digits, and the last stopover before Onederland!!0 -
Where does the time go, I've not updated for days.
Mini challenge
Thurs: yes/yes/yes
Fri: yes/yes/yes
Sat: yes/yes/no - way over calories and I don't regret it!
Sun: yes/yes/yes
Lots of running, long walks in the evening (it's perfect weather this time of year with long sunny evenings) and a few resistance classes thrown in. I'm finding the exercise element easier than the diet element at the moment.
Mon weigh-in
Last week: 153.4
This week: 151.8
Loss this week: 1.6ibs
I've bought one of those fancy pants scales that measure body fat, visceral fat, water bone and muscle. Bit of a bargain on amazon and it links to fitbit. It arrives on Thursday. I LOVE stats and data, I'm really motivated by it 🙈 so I'm hoping this gives me some pointers in composition, ensuring I'm both losing fat AND gaining muscle. I'll report back how it is going in case anyone else is debating investing. I'm hoping it will be good for those weeks where I don't lose but have worked out hard - I always put it down to muscle gain and water for recovery. Hopefully I will find out if this is actually the case!
Have a good week all cxx
@Caronell, another fantastic week, Carrie....very inspiring!!0 -
Hey group, I haven't been in here in a bit. I kinda gave up this up a little but not intentionally. I have been so busy I haven't been keeping track of anything really or drinking any water. Hoping I can get into a new rhythm with this new schedule soon. Tomorrow is my weigh in and for the first time in a while I'm kinda scared of what it's going to read.2

Mini challenge
Sun: no x3 - it was the last day of vacation and i treated it as such
Mon: tracked and under: yes, but not active. I was so exhausted going back to work so I rested after work. Very glad I ate well and jumped back to intermittent fasting though. First steps to getting into good habits.3 -

@mirendybryant, it is what it is, or will be!! Just move on from there. A new month is on the horizon to give you a positive boost!!2 -
Howdy guys.
Back at 154.4. It must be my number or something.
Hoping that the semester starting puts me back into that consistent routine that I need. This summer was super all over the place. Summer is my dangerous time. I can handle the holidays, but summer is out to get me!1 -
Tracked, nice long walk with my sister AND then I swam. At for calories. Looking forward to weigh in this week2

@eatingfoodles, it may be your number, yes, but only your fall starting number. Now that summer is (almost), thankfully, over, its time here is nearly over as well!! Bye, bye 154.4!! See you....um, never!!0 -
