Great job!
With The Biggest Loser Challenge all you have to do is Weigh in every week. But as a team captain you can choose to monitor and give kudos for little side challenges like the MUAC aka
Mini
Ultimate
Accountability
Challenge
You are currently participating in it (and doing well I might add)🥰
It looks like this:

Week 5 Day 4
Tuesday 29th June
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes
Steps - 16,849
I went through my average steps for June to date (its split between two apps as I got my fancy fitbit this month), I'm now averaging 15k steps, bit of a jump from 10.5 last month. I won't be moving my 12k daily goal though, anything above isn't always possible when you have a full time desk job and plenty of deadlines. Not sure I will even hit 12k when I have to start commuting to the office again.
Sundays ridiculous walk has finally hit me too, fell asleep at 8pm and only woke up at 6. Probably would of slept longer had my son not already stayed in bed an hour longer than normal. A half arsed walk to nursery and back then I made it half way through my glutes exercise when I decided today is a rest day. Can't win them all
Do you guys plan your rest days or do you wait until your body needs them? Still trying to build this into habit, as I want my kid to see me exercising (he loves burpees?!) so any advice to help maintain the motivation is very welcome!3 -

Awesome! That is a LOT of steps. I'm lucky if I hit my 6k goal (I'm getting better though!)
I usually wait til my body needs them. Last time I planned rest days, I had energy and motivation those days and the days I needed to exercise I was exhausted. So planning them definitely doesn't work out for me.2 -
DAILY POST ● W5-D3
Tuesday, June 29th.
●Tracked→ Yes.
●Calories→ Under.
●Exercise→ I went on a walk with Dais; 65 minutes—2.3 miles.
●Steps→ 8552 / 6000
Fairly decent day. I only napped for an hour and half (usually it's like 3 hours, lol). The walk was good. It was so humid though. I was sweating like a hog. Dais started slowing down a lot toward the end so we went home. I could have probably kept going but I figured walking 2 miles is good and it was close to bedtime and still had to prep my lunch for work.

Week 5 Day 4
Tuesday 29th June
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes
Exercise was the hotel pool, plus some wandering around town. Another scorcher of a day. Only kept under calories this time because the restaurant meal was awful. Should have guessed…a Mexican place named Montezuma…should be named Montezuma’s Revenge, LOL.
I take my rest days when my body needs them or the weather dictates too. But this challenge helps ensure I don’t take too many of them. Hmmm….3 -

I have been in a workout funk for the last few weeks, I was doing juuuust enough so that I can say “Yes I did a 20 min exercise” Check box? ✅Yes. But I know I was half-assing it and I'm doing better with that now. My love for city tours and history was fired up in St Augustine and I’ve been turning up the volume and actually listening to the trainers talking on my Treadmill’s IFit programs and this has helped me stay on longer ...and if I didn’t hear a section of the tour (hubby/daughter coming in to talk) I do it over!

Weigh in Day: Monday
June SW: 143.2lbs
Week1: 143.2
Week2: 143.2
Week3: 145.2
Week4: 147
Week 5
Mon-Sun Total Cals:12286Cals
Wk5 Result: 145lbs = 2lbs loss⬇️/1.36%
June Overall:1.8lbs gain = 1.26%⬆️
Aaaand finally it went DOWN this week! This wasn’t a great “weight loss journey” month for me, but I did some real LIVING, seeing people I love, site seeing, trying different foods, going OUTSIDE and getting some much needed vitamin D😃
so no regrets, well except one..
I can never really get a handle on the act of balancing food and life. When life gets active, I have always put my good eating skills in the back seat, matter of fact, Overeater(that’s my alter ego) he always comes out when I’m not doing my same routine. I wish I knew how to stop that from happening because he’s the reason why I can never just maintain my weight when I leave MFP. Maybe I’ll figure this out one day..
New goals for this week- Lowered my NetCals Goal to 1500
- Still shooting for 30 NetCarbs or less
- Taking better care to eat within an 8 hr/IF schedule
- Starting today: 30second Daily plank challenge
Reminder: To Lose 1lbs = 10500NetCals/Wkly OR 1500/Daily
NetCarb Goal: 30g
To Maintain Weight =15400/Week OR
2200/Daily
💦Goal: 64oz/Daily; 448oz/Wkly

Week 5 Day 5
Wednesday 1st July
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes (Just barely)
Steps - 13,842
Into the second half of the year and it only took half an hour to get completely frazzled. Not sure if my new medication has just decided to stop working or I am just having muddled couple of days! I still can't find the socks I took off yesterday morning, should I be glad I still remember they exist? Also snapped my headphones putting them on this morning, luckily some tape helped tide them over for my walk. Managed to step out in front of multiple cars on my journey. I fully intended to take a rest day if my body needed but I seemed to have plenty of energy yet mentally I really, really struggled today I did it all but it feels like I'm teetering on that edge, I know its the ADHD now but I really don't want to undo months of work. I am going to take tomorrow as a self care day, I am going to let the dopamine decide what to do and see how I get on.
Sorry to be such a debbie downer!2 -
Week 5 Day 5
Wednesday 1st July
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - No
Exercise - Yes
Last night here, so fancy dinner to celebrate. Over calories; right around maintenance.
We all have our days where we’re not perfect. Probably because we are all human and shouldn’t expect perfection. The battle isn’t for perfection. It’s to make the right choices most of the time. And when we lose a skirmish, to get back up on our feet and fight again.
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.
Ooops did I get carried away???? 🤣3 -
Just a Reminder that the week starts with Sunday, Day1; Mon-Day2; Tues-Day3, Wed-Day4 and so on. I’m not one who likes to correct people but wanted to help prevent confusion later.
Happy Thursday everyone!0 -

Are you needing us to change your weighin days to Sunday starting in July? Now is definitely a good time to request a change. Just let me or Ashley know!
Everybody will start migrating over to the July chatroom on Sunday, but you’re welcome to start posting over there now if you’d like. People sometimes will say hi and introduce themselves to newcomers. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10836875/team-run-track-minds-july
I’m following both rooms right now so that I can be especially helpful while we move everyone over to the new month🥸!
Alsoooo, just a heads up, in your post Thursday should be listed as day 5 not 6🤗
Happy Friday everybody!0 -
@krysless2 I've been Just doing Sundays this month but actually Tuesdays work much better for me and I log it each week already! I logged PW as the last one I posted on 26th June

This is how I placed your weight to finish up for June! (Side note: Look at you go!!)
I’m not sure why, but the spreadsheet toggles Weigh in days sometimes. I really appreciate you going with the flow!
