    And if you mean everyone's breakdown, that comes when they main admins get to it. We do this for free so sometimes life takes over

    Hi Team!!

    WOW WHAT AN AMAZING WEEK!!
    How great does it feel to be the highest percentage lost, most pounds lost and a member taking one of the top spots, too!!! GO US!!!

    Can we do it again next week??? I think we can!

    Let's be consistent and make it happen!!!!!

    I am committing to a 2 pound week again. This will put me in the 180s and closer to my 16 lb challenge goal!

    WHO IS IN AND WILLING TO COMMIT TO THIS WEEK, TOO?

    Quick question- no numbers for this past week?

    Numbers? Are you asking about mine? They're in the spreadsheet which everyone can see. I work 2 jobs with a teenager that's been giving it rough. I'm not always here daily posting.

    No I was asking @ teams' numbers, but I see its posted below-thx

    I commit to losing 2 lbs this week. It’s been a few weeks since I’ve had a 2 lb loss; it would be great to go back to that!

    Great work Shrinkers!

    2lbs in a week would be too much for my height/weight combo but I’ll keep plugging away to lose as best I can.

    Awesome job, team! Let’s do it again this week!

    I’m sticking to my original pledge of 211.5 or less. It’s a busy week and I started it with a 3-course dinner + wines, so I have some catching up to do.

    Nice work everyone! This week was great for me (sure I didn't lose as much or work out as much as I wanted). But, I started eating healthier and more at home, take-out food was less often! But when I did get take-out, I got the most delicious and healthiest wrap/burrito. Yayyy progress.

    I want to commit to the 2lbs a week as well, but same as @Xiaolongbao ... not sure it's healthy for my height/weight combo. Will push myself to move more this week. =)

    Good Morning, it doesnt have to be 2lbs.
    The way Beka/I think, if you commit to even .5 or anything, you will push yourself.
    This week will be iffy with me and weight, its shark week and its been pretty heavy. I am hoping it calms down by Thursday

    Hey everyone - so sorry for falling off the face of earth!

    I have been going through some medical issues and have not been logging, working out or checking in here at all. On the bright side, I have lost some weight from being sick (yay, that's the way for me to get healthy *note the heavy sarcasm*).

    I should have logged in sooner to explain what was going on. If I have not already been moved, can I be moved to support? I hope I haven't burned my bridges and would still be welcome back here in the future.

    Here are my approximate weigh-ins for the end of July in case you need them to update records.

    July-31 weight: 134.1

    @guitargirl55 can't speak for the captains but honey, no bridges burned in my direction!

    I had some health issues in the beginning of the year and also disappeared, and I was welcomed with open arms when I was ready to come back.

    A week or so ago we talked about cyclical things... looks like my heart rate is trending up again.

    CW 248.5
    TD 4.5

    This is based off I’m just now going to really keep track of the TD weight.. I made myself a goal to log everyday next week... I did maybe half the week.. it helped a little.. gonna get back to logging again tomorrow.. I don’t plan on a big loss again.. I’ll be happy with a pound or 2.

    I have a problem. There was a grocery store chain fusion about a year ago, and it lead to a particular really good oat bread becoming available in my regular grocery store. It used to only be available at another store farther away from my house, so it automatically became a special occasion thing. Well, now it’s available at the nearby location but kinda randomly since they bake it on location. I feel internal pressure to buy it from there every time I see it to generate demand and thus make sure they continue to carry it. The problem is, I bought it yesterday and ate half a loaf in basically one sitting. This seems to happen every time I buy it, and I feel gross and carb-bloated afterwards. I don’t want to give it up completely, but I definitely have to make it a weekend/special occasion thing.

    @Beka3695 this is interesting to compare! I follow RHR too, and my average has been 62 lately. 68 is usually for high-stress or hangover days, and I feel kinda anxious just thinking about being at that level and how I feel there. Everyone works on improvement at their own level, I remember your cardio fitness level is way higher than mine ;)

    This week no loss gain. I have been having RUQ pain for the past two weeks, saw my GI doctor yesterday schedule for an endoscopy next week to see what's causing the pain. Hope everyone have a great day.

    @hipari. I saw this today. It really shows the cyclical nature better

    @Beka3695 whoa, that totally shows! But each low is lower than the previous one!

    Wednesday weigh in:
    PW: 153.4
    CW: 154.2

    This seems to be the way it is; I go down then go back up just to lose more the following week; my body is changing, I'm losing inches as well so slow & steady it goes-so I'm not worried- I keep going....

    Great mindset!!!! Not all efforts show on the scale!

    I don't know why I can't do better than this. I just hover around 230ish back and forth. Well, I know why, I do ok, then overeat, and back and forth. Summer has always been an issue for me. When it's hot, I don't feel like doing much, so I eat and don't think about the cals - yet I know counting cals works. Ice cream. Who has half a cup as the suggested serving size?! LOL.
