    It should be posted tomorrow, just whenever the other team leader sends it to me...

    As far as water, carry a water bottle with you at all times, and drink with your meals.

    I had a rough week but managed to lose over 3.5 pounds this week. I have a new scale that has a 4.2 pound difference than the one I started on so I hated seeing the number that I had tried so hard to get away from. This challange says I started at 259.6, which I thought I was, but I guess I was 263.8. I had to updat my starting weight on MFP to make the weight loss accurate so that I wouldn't get discouraged, which I had no idea how fast that can hapen seing horrible numbers again!

    Anyways onto the good news, I weighed in today at 260.2!!! Woohoo

    That is a 3.6 pound weight loss!!!

    I am so excited about this weeks challenges, sodium is sometihng I have a hard time with so it will be good for me!

    Happy losing everyone!

    Hey all! Looks like everyone is doing a great job! I was only down 1.2 pounds (185 to 183.8) but I met the exercise and water challenges. I say _only_ 1.2 because I had been up the week before and didn't lose more than I had put back on.

    I like the weekly check in and challenges! I think it makes you reflect on this diet/exercise/lifestyle stuff and think more about the big picture rather than getting bogged down in the day to day. Which is so. easy. to. do.

    I hope everyone has a great weekend! My goal for this weekend is to TRACK!

    GREAT job to everyone! I have 13/24 weights in thus far, and we've lost 31.7 lbs!!!!!


    If you haven't already, please get your weights in! :)

    The Blue Team leader is keeping track of minutes worked out on their spreadsheet, but I'm not going to do that. Hopefully everyone is OK with that :)

    I didn't lose or gain this week (which could be frustrating but I'm not letting it get me down). I worked out 300 minutes this week, drank all my water and feel leaner in my belly. Next week will be better! Way to go everyone, you're rocking the HOUSE!

    Being the first week back to work after summer vacation, I was only able to meet the exercise twice! Does my 11 hour work days count?! Otherwise, I was able to meet the water four times. My weight on Friday morning was 141.6... Hopefully next week will be better.

    Okay, this week didn't go so well for me. I started school so I walked around a lot more than I normally do. However, some difficult things cropped up and I ate without my health in mind most of the week. I met the exercise challenge 3 days out of the last week and the water challenge 1 day. I also gained 4 pounds so I'm at 166 for the start of this week. Please send good vibes my way gang, I could really use them!

    Hi everyone-

    I stayed the same this week...198.4. I managed to get 3 days of exercise at 30 mins each this week. So 90 mins total. I always get 8+ glasses of water so that isn't a problem.

    I had a lot of new things happening this week, so I am happy that I stayed the same and didn't gain.
