    I didn’t lose any weight. I didn’t go over my calories except for Friday. One thing I didn’t do this week was get my waters in. I got a very low amount in. Hopefully that’s why I stayed the same. Making sure I get them in this week and hope it makes a different!

    There are no real requirements except to post your weight once a week. How much more you want to do is up to you. There is a weekly group challenge and a team step challenge but they are not mandatory. You can post as much as you want on the chat. I personally post my daily goal update as I can see on Saturday how I did with my goals overall. I am not sure what you mean by the comments. You do have to be on the team chat to see anything posted on this thread.

    Weigh in day: Friday
    PW: 324
    CW: 323

    This week I focused on logging meals here and increasing my daily Active Zone minutes (Fitbit). It seems to be helping.
  • Fell off the wagon a bit in the last week, so was dreading this weigh day. I did go to Pilates but aside from that have not been very active and I think my portion sizes have crept up, we had a meal out and i ate a cookie and a cake in the same day. Not good and it shows in the scale, gained nearly 3 pound, which has taken my above my maintenance range 🙄

    PW-163.7
    CW-166.0

    On the plus side, at least i didnt avoid the scale and hopefully i can catch myself before i gain anymore.

    I may not have lost this week, but losing 10lbs this month is a win for me!

    Nice loss! I know when I log I do much better with my weight loss.

    You can get back below it next week. You know what you need to work on and I know you can do it.
