We've been hitting farmers markets and selling like crazy!! I am finally in a place where I believe I can focus on myself a lil now!! I know I haven't been the best team member the last couple months!! I had to make the decision to drop Barefoot Clean and it was not an easy decision!! I am over aunt Flo and I have a goal and a plan!! Gonna do my best y'all!! If I don't weigh in every single week someone yell at me please!!! I need it!!
Welcome back! You might not know that Beka has stepped down as co-captain and I have been helping out with weigh-ins and such. At the moment you are not on the team roster, but I'll put you right back in! Is your weigh-in day Monday? Do you have some weights for the last couple of weeks, or are you just diving straight back in on week 4? Either way works, and don't worry - I'm excellent at pestering people for their weigh-ins. Bwahahaha!
Gosh - speaking of which -
Last week quite a few people did not post their weights. Here's a chance to get caught up, and get going on week 4:

Especially happy with this week's results since the food for Thanksgiving dinner is now in the house. I've been tempted, but keep telling myself I can only have it for dinner tomorrow. The challenge will be getting back on track as soon as it's over. I've told my family and friends who are coming over that they will have leftovers to take home of anything I shouldn't continue to eat. Happy Thanksgiving to my friends who celebrate. I'm thankful for a doctor willing to provide tough love, my sister who has been along with me on this journey and all of you here at MFP who offer advice, challenges and accountability.5 -
NEW TEAM NAME UPDATE:
Here are the suggestions so far - if I have left any out, it is because there is some objection (Thinpossible because we already have a team using Slimpossible, etc.), but if I left one out that you really love, bring it back! Trying to stick with two words, three at the most, well differentiated from the other teams.
Trim Assets
Unrepentant Thinners
Fat Assassins
Fat Attack

I like Fat Assassins too, but I just thought of something without the violent overtone: Fat Burners. I also like Food Fighters, and maybe Laughing Losers.

I personally like Fat Burners 😘
Happy Thanksgiving to all in US🦃🦃🦃🧡🧡🧡3 -
Fat Burners and Shape Shifters are also both fantastic ideas!
The ‘burners’ language feels motivating in terms of fueling fitness energy and ‘shape shifters’ is so positive.
We might need to use one of those new polls available through the website updates, so we can reframe our perspective on the changes. 😂🤣😂
I’m still getting used to the new format but appreciate the efforts of MFP staff and leaders to provide updates.
Change is hard but necessary. One of our family mottos is ‘adapt or die’ but it still takes practice! 😅3 -
I like Food fighters. Also what about SAT burners, Shrinking Assets and Trimstones it combines both names. I also thought of shrinking stones. Shrink and Trim. Think Trink, Trimsets1

Good morning everyone. Sorry for not weighing in this past Saturday. Can I be placed on support until February 1st please? Outside of the holidays coming up, my husband and I are officially house hunting.
It's exciting, fun and stressful at the same time. I will still be coming around to cheer everyone on. You guys are awesome!! Have a great day and stay safe.3 -
@Nature003Life I popped in for a visit and saw your request, so I moved you to the Support team. House Hunting is exciting and during the holidays everything will be decorated and lit up...how nice!! Hope you walk in and find that perfect place just for you and your family...you'll get "that feeling" just like I did when I bought my house...I just KNEW it the right one for me. Good luck! Keep us posted on the search...enjoy!

We had an appointment at the maternity/baby clinic today and I weighed in, another 3-ish lbs down, in less than 3 weeks! More than half of all pregnancy weight is now gone, I’m out of the 110s and into 100s (in kg) and feeling more and more active each day. There was a very scary moment at the clinic though, Finland operates in kg but for some reason the scale there was switched to lbs, and seeing the numbers go waaay up was a momentary shock treatment before realizing it’s set in lbs.
This rate of weight loss seems pretty easy to continue, 1,1lbs per week without any real attempt to count calories, limit treats or exercise. I’ve just been focused on upping and maintaining my milk supply and taking walks with the baby in her stroller. At some point I hope to start losing faster, but right now my focus needs to be on the baby, maintaining milk supply and recovering from birthing her. My postpartum checkup is in 3 weeks, so I hope to continue my current rate until that and then get cleared for exercise and a more conscious and slightly faster weight loss rate. My ”fitness” goal right now is to find time to do some stretching and foamrolling to ease the back pains that come from holding, lifting and feeding the baby in weird positions.5
