    Hey all! Excited to be back for another month with this team!

    For May, with summer right around the corner, I’m looking to make more progress, even with this COVID-19 situation.

    With gratitude, I’m happy to be with you guys. Let’s stay active, healthy, and constantly improving!

    Hi Ashley, I would like to jump back in for the month of May. Can I be added back to Gutbusters, and set my weigh-in day for Saturdays? Thank you, Teresa

    Hi team! Great to see so many of you! I am your captain Megan and will do my best to remind you to weigh in, but I sometimes forget! Like you, I am busy with the new situation; I am a teacher and also have to manage e-learning in my own home. Phew! My focus is on not eating standing up at the kitchen counter lol!

    LOTS of new faces; let's keep this a positive space where we can each do our best.

    Today is Monday; I am looking for weigh in's from:
    @lacatgirl
    @miss_fit_ellie
    and from Sunday (yesterday)

    Thank you! I didn't do anything except start eating my recommended cals instead of comfprt eating, honestly. I am sure it's just the initial bloat coming off quick, and will even out. But I will take it!

    (Disclaimer: Nothing wrong with taking comfort in food during this chaotic times, I just needed to get mine under control. No judgement zone here :) )

    Hi, team.
    I really want/need to jump back in. April was tough, my mom spent a week in the hospital fighting coronavirus. 2 days after she was discharged, she was rushed to the Emergency due to difficulty breathing and elevated heart rate.

    I was handling Covid 19 pretty well until my mom got sick. I went back to overeating, sugar, diet Coke, staying up till morning (10 hour time difference with my mom), and no workout. I feel like a drug addict who started using i again:((

    Can I be added back with a weigh-in day of Tuesday?

    Thanks.

    Hello! Hopefully your mom is doing ok!
    When you miss two weigh in's in a row, you aren't rolled over and you have to let them know on the main page; I can't add you in. Sorry-you can rejoin in June on the main page (I don't add people, I just record weights) Glad you're back and we are looking forward to seeing you in June!

    My first ever weigh-in on my first ever MFP challenge! Would have loved to see 2lbs but a loss is a loss so I'll take it. We have a break in the rain here in London so going to dash out for my daily exercise.
    I hope all my fellow gutbusters are doing well and are in good spirits. We're going to smash this!

    This is a wonderful loss! I am close to your weight, and I am always happy to see a loss, my average is 1/2 per week, with lots of ups & downs. Good Luck!

    Fantastic! When I see a big loss like this, I am always curious if you did anything special or different to help... do you want to share your secrets??? ;)
