    *sigh* I was making progress then I had bloodwork done yesterday so I rewarded myself with a bunch of poor eating choices yesterday. Could’ve been worse I suppose.

    Less than 24 hours later and I got my results back, which was shocking. Glucose and A1c were a tiny bit lower but my cholesterol is up over 20 points! Grr. My trainer has me consuming a lot more protein than I had been doing so I’m going to have to work on the diet some more.

    Weigh In Day: Saturday
    PW (Previous Weight): 141.9 lbs (64.5kg)
    CW (Current Weight): 141 lbs (64.1kg)

    My weight was up and down like a yo-yo this week. It was the first week since I started that my trend weight actually went up slightly. But today is weigh in day and it’s down slightly from last Saturday so I’ll take that.

    Honestly, I’m very surprised I lost at all. I had Chinese food multiple times and went over on calories almost every day. I guess underestimating cardio calories is helping though...

    Was not active all week, ate more carbs then I should (me and carbs don't get along), work week stressful and dang I did not drink enough water. I have baggy shorts on and I put on my 10's and they are tight, going to hit it hard this week and get into those. I am 52 and carry all my weight in my waist.

    Hi everyone,

    I'm Kate, Kilobykilo, a 35 yo Brit living in Portugal. I've been on team shrinking assets for a year or so, I think? But disappeared mid July, sorry! The app was driving me mad and I'd stopped tracking and so also stopped losing.... August is a month off work for me and I've been over indulging way too much.... back on it slowly next week before starting back at work a week on Tuesday.

    So wanted to head back and her in the habit of posting and tracking the week and would love to join the team again in September, please :)

    Happy sunday everyone,
    Kate

    Welcome back!!!

    Yes, the app is causing great stress. Seems like when it cleared up for some it stopped working for others. I still cannot get into the team thru the app -- so I have it open in my browser and the app for logging. I keep reminding myself that it is free...

    SHRINKING ASSETS GROUP REPORT:

    As a group we gained 1.3 pounds


    8 challengers did not report weigh ins for the week.
    3 challengers were dropped for lack of participation.

    Can we turn this around in the coming week? ABSOLUTELY!!!
    How do we do this? COMMITMENT and CONSISTENCY

    2 people have DMed me saying they stopped logging and gained. Yep! Those old habits are like a comfy bed -- Easy to slip into and hard to get out of. I understand. I regained 62 pounds of a 68 pound loss. Now I'm fighting to get it back off again.

    We have 27 Challengers on the team. Who will commit to a loss in the coming week?
    I'm not asking for a 1 lb, 2 lb or 3 lb commitment -- just a loss.

    I WILL COMMIT! I will post a loss in the coming week!


    Who else?
