Sunday May 3rd weigh in 166. I averaged 7000 steps of the past week, which is a huge improvement from the past few weeks. Water, I struggled, drank 2 litres 4 days of the week, the other 3 not very much. Have a great day!2

@RoseyandReady great effort, and a wonderful loss to show for it!
Have a wonderful day! 1 -
Hey guys!
Hope everyone had a great weekend! If you haven't seen in previous threads; every now and again we like to start up a side conversation to keep up the engagement within our team 😊 We call it a Weekly Roundtable Discussion or WRD. The other day our Co-Captain Brandi asked the team a question and I've really been struggling to come up with a good answer. She wrote this;
So this week's WRD is, what is YOUR reward? And if you're like me and you just can't figure out a good one (that is not food related), I would like to challenge you to give this some thought and share anything that comes to mind. Here's to all having a great Monday!!Team TBBT - Do you have a reward for yourself for reaching your goal weight or for reaching milestones in your weight loss journey? Or is just getting there reward enough?
@brandi_84 @Krysless2 my "reward" for reaching my goal weight (which I am not sure WHAT it is yet) will just be meeting my goal weight/range! I do know that I will definitely be in need of new clothes-I have roughly 40 pounds before I am even close to goal, and I don't remember being that weight in more than 10 years... I don't have any clothes that would fit! I don't see any other "rewards" in my future other than new clothes and a healthier lifestyle! I can't wait to get there, but know it will be a while before I am close! 1 -
Happy Monday all!
@cmhubbard92 Thanks for the reminder about 4/30... not sure how I missed that day. I updated the spreadsheet with all of my steps, but just for consistency below is my mini challenge info for that day as well as the weekend.
4/30
Tracking: yes
Within calories: yes
Exercise: yes
Steps: 13,007
5/2
Tracking: no
Within calories: I don't know for sure since I didn't track, but my guess would be yes
Exercise: yes
Steps: 12,849
5/3
Tracking: yes
Within calories: yes
Exercise: yes
Steps: 19,300
My outdoor HiiT/Bootcamp with my neighbors is still going strong. We are switching things up everyday and it is great! I burn a consistent 300-400 calories with each work out, which I am happy with. A lot of the neighbors kids have been joining as well and my 15 daughter has consistently been participating as well! I can't convince my huband or son (age 13) to participate though.
I will say, it is one of the few things I will miss about the quarantine!
I did great last week with no drinking wine at home during the week (a glass or two of wine is really my weekness). That is one thing that quarantine has not been good for, but I was successful with my goal last week and am keeping the same this week. Probably could stand to cut back some on the weekend too though.

I printed and filled out this habit tracker for this month. I have seen a couple different ones on another challenge I am doing. I think it will be a good visual for hitting different goals throughout the month. If you want to make one of your own, I just googled "printable circle habit tracker " and browsed until I found this! Just an idea I thought to share with the group!

@jmalderman thank you for updating the spreadsheet! Awesome job over the weekend, and I am glad you still have a good workout group! Maybe you guys will still be able to find a time/day each week you will be able to continue workouts when this is over! Also, kudos to you for cutting down the wine, too!0 -

@Krysless2 right now I am doing the Hogwarts Weight Loss Challenge, we are halfway through the 8 week challenge, but I am sure they are still accepting new members! Search for Hogwarts Weight Loss Challenge Term 29, and it has a little link to apply for the challenge in the group description!
I was also thinking we could do a group challenge outside of this... maybe with exercise challenges and other challenges, but that would take a little work to get started... I would definitely be interested in that, though!2 -
