    Sorry team weight no more. The stress of teaching is catching up to me and it shows on the scale.
    I’ll comment more later. Have a good day.

    As the owner, I can set whatever schedule I want, but that would be inconsistent with what I've asked my staff to do. So leadership principles are driving me to be available and set a good example. Besides the fact that I am still working 70+ hours a week for the last two weeks.
    Is self-care a good example or a bad example?

    August Week Three

    Weigh In Day: Wednesdays
    PW (Previous Weight): 172.6 (August 11th)
    CW (Current Weight): 174 (August 20th)
    LTD (Loss to Date): 60 lbs

    Am I still injured? It doesn't feel like it.
    But do I clearly still have the water retention from it? Absolutely.

    It's frustrating to see my weight back in the mid 170s, but knowing where the excess comes from is helping me immensely.

    On top of that, a new challenge started at the functional training gym where I do most of my strength training. The challenge requires doing an InBody scan three times: once at the beginning of the challenge, a second time in the middle, and a third at the end. My first scan was Tuesday morning, and while my weight was much higher than I would have liked, it revealed that I had only gained a pound of fat since my last scan, as compared to the two pounds of muscle I put on, and the two pounds of additional water my body was holding onto.

    So, I'm okay. Numbers and I have a love/hate relationship right now, but I'm healthy and feeling strong, and my butt looks incredible, so I can't complain too much.

    I'm thinking I should move my weigh in day to Friday

    Are you still thinking, or do you want me to update your weigh day?

    Down 7 pounds in 4 weeks. I'd say I did really great. I just need to keep going so I can be back to where I was. About 10 more pounds to go!

    Thursday Weigh-in
    PW: 159.2
    CW: 156.8

    Posting a few days late…because this week has been so busy! Work is crazy. But it’s also been so busy that I haven’t had time to snack and I’ve been at work so early that I’m going to bed before I even have time for my night snacking. Seems to be working for weight loss!

    Again, I will apologize for the late weigh in. It has been another crazy week. With the new baby in the family and the first grandbaby's second birthday on Monday, I am losing my mind! (But in a good way). My daughter in law has a revised due date on grandbaby number 4. Grandbaby #2 will be 1 in October, so expect the craziness to continue. I am weighing. I just don't always remember to come here to post. I'm on vacation this week, so I should be "normal". LOL

    Weigh in day: Thursday - missed that mark

    @sandielewis2001

    You have plenty of options, some better than others:
    • Weigh in tomorrow before 9am EST :sunglasses:
    • Weigh in tomorrow after 9am EST and have your weigh-in considered late for week 3 :flushed:
    • Request to be excused for this week - some of you have, and we greatly appreciate the consideration :heart:
    • Move to the Cheer Squad until you are up for weighing in consistently :c
    • Accept a NWI and weigh in next week
    • Accept a NWI and don't weigh in next week and be added to the list of members being dropped from Team WeightNoMore :dizzy:

    melaniedscott Posts: 1,478 Member
    Yeah...I'm opting for excused. Not feeling great after a really rough week.

    Weigh in day Saturday (sorry I’m a day late).
    PW 174.0
    CW 176.0

    Steps this week. 71020
    I’m going to freely tell you this last week has been a free for all. I’m working a ton of overtime and still trying to keep up with sports. I will get back to eating healthier as soon as I slow down just a little bit.

    Sorry I’m a day late @minstrelofsarcasm. It was a rough day yesterday. I worked and I had a little fender bender while on lunch and had 2 bday parties to go to and when I got back here I was just done

    My steps were not great last week. Hopefully this week they will be better. My work is shut down for the week, we have 3 kids with covid. My granddaughter has to go into quarantine. I have to go in for a few hours each day to do some work, get some cleaning done. Wednesday I get to go see the weight doctor, hoping it's going to work out well. We are supposed to be getting the hurricane but so far so good, only some rain on and off. Hopefully it stays that way.

    Hi everyone! Hope y'all are having a good Monday.

    I'm traveling and need to be excused for this week. I wish I had a scale, because 3 days without it plus eating out all my meals is starting to stress me out.
