    Hi Everyone!

    Happy Monday! I am sorry that I am so late on reporting in for the week. I was under on calories, over on water, did 5-5K's but was not able to complete the daily challenges. My current weight is 138lbs. I am really trying to focus more on toning/muscle building now that I am approaching my goal. I was pleased with my body fat percentage going down this week. I will continue to do the best I can on the last week of this challenge, but it is my vacation(leave) week so....:wink: Everyone is doing amazing & I will continue to be with you all in spirit. Have a wonderful week all.

    I am a bit disappointed by the lack of follow through with some of the team activities. My plan was to shadow an October challenge (do the exercises, goal listed), but no formally join a team. I may change my mind if the right invitation comes along. I do feel when on a team that I have to succeed each day; so in a way, that is a great motivator.

    I love your Daria theme mkaluzny!

    Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. Looks like I'm not the only one who has been stuck on the sidelines. Everyone else is looking good!

    It's hard to stay under calories without burning many. Gained 3 lbs, then lost 1. Going to try some yoga today to start back slowly. Will try to shadow what I can in October. Hoping to get back in fully in November.

    Dawn, I'm am so glad someone recognizes Daria. She is my muse of sarcasm. I have all her DVDs.
    I know it's hard to keep going when you don't feel well. I only have a cold, but am craving salt. I already logged the potato chips that I plan to eat.

    Oh well, food exercise and water challenges met today.

    I am fantasizing that our missing teammates reached their weight goals and are living happily in the Land of Maintenance. Reality, a month is a long time to commit to working out and recording all you eat and do.

    Thursday, calorie, exercise, and water goals met. I had to do a bit extra on the treadmill to make up for the second piece of pie today.

    I have decided to do an individually driven challenge for October. They exercises and challenges are given, but each person is responsible to himself. I have included the link below if anyone is interested.

    I have been continuing with daily workout challenges, adapting some of them to my schedule and ability.
    I have been struggling with food this month because with the increased time spent on working out (1.5-2 hours per day)I have been very hungry. I need to make better choices.
    I have been part of two group challenges this month and that was probably too much.
    I wish everyone success on their weight loss journey and I will see you in the funny pages :love: :laugh: :laugh: :blushing:

    calorie, water and exercises challenges met.

    Thank you all for completing this September Tribal Challenge. I will report all the numbers after they are in. It seems that most of us had additional personal and health challenges to deal with as well. I applaud you for continuing.

    Also, I encourage you to keep exercising, watching your food choices, and completing your diary each day. More importantly, I encourage you to keep in touch with the friends you have made throughout this journey. Your support to them and their support of you are vital components to all our successes on MFP.

    Again thank you. Good luck!

    I'm so sorry I was so terrible at reporting each day. . . I don't know why it was so hard to remember.

    Anywho...... I completed week 5 ~ under calories, over water and six 5K's done. I did not do challenges this week. No reason, just didn't.

    I have lost 10 pounds during this challenge! AH-MAY-ZING for me! Thanks for all your motivation ~ it really helped.

    Be blessed and keep up the good work everyone!
