    Weight is still the same....eerr!

    Try your measurements sometimes the inches are falling even if the scale isn't! Keep it up I'm sure the scale will catch up!!!!

    I guess the frustration was silly..... Scale read 195.5 this morning, which since it is the new scale is pretty good for me. Thanks for the support.

    Challenge results:
    Water met everyday
    Exercise- approx. 30-45min a day except for Monday my rest day
    Calories under all except for Monday

    Pretty okay with me for being so sick this week.

    Glad everyone had been doing so well. Way to go you guys!!!

    Rough week. Missed 2 days of exercise due to injury, which contributed to one day over on calories. Was able to do a little today so should be good for the rest of the month.

    Current weight: 137.5 (half lb down from last week)
    Water: Met or exceeded 7 days
    Under calories: 6 days
    Exercise: Met or exceeded 45 minutes 4 days (1 rest day, 2 injury days)
    Posted and sent NSV to team captain.

    Sun / exercise~ 45min / cal burn~ 213 / water~ 72 ozs / cal goal~*1310*/ net~1113
    Mon / exercise~50min / cal burn~ 546 / water~ 72ozs / cal goal~ *1310*/ net~ 1109
    Tue / exercise~ 53min / cal burn~ 600 / water~ 80 ozs / cal goal~*1310*/ net~1111

    Fri / water~ 88 ozs / cal goal~*1310*/ net~ 3167 (dinner and dessert at olive garden)

    Dinner calories last night were extreme but, being under goal everyday helped. I always use net calories weekly and I still have 2 days left to reconcile :-)

    There's a possibility that after today, I won't be able to post to MFP for a day or two. Hurricane's coming and the power may go out.

    I think I may have lost about half a pound this week, but yesterday and today I've had water and coffee before I even thought about getting on the scale. So I'm going with weight remained the same.

    :blushing: I'm so sorry guys!!!

    I've gotten so far behind. But I'm caught up on the chart -- everyone's weights and totals.

    Since the last weigh in -- as a group we've lost 71.8 lbs. And the total for the whole month is......


    646.55 lbs lost !!!!!

    I'm so proud of you guys!!! You've all done so amazing and worked so hard.

    Thanks for all the words of encouragement this past month -- it's been crazy -- it's still crazy but we're hoping to find our groove. It's been so amazing being your team captain. And I'm really looking forward to seeing what jrdoty has planned for us in September.

    Mental Hugs and High Fives!!!

    :heart:
