Hi MS ... another new member joining your wonderful team .. Please welcome @steffibabiie

@Neon_Ninja : I believe it would be next Wednesday, the first Wednesday in September. I also think that you can change your weigh-in day by messaging @broncobuddee, who manages all that.

Hi everyone! Looking forward to the September challenge. I'm new(ish) to mfp, I've used it once in the past but didn't have a food scale and found trying to sort out homemade meals too much of a hassle to track. So I got myself a scale and I'm back!
I'm 37, a work-at-home mum to my 16yo daughter and 16yo stepdaughter (with us part-time). We're a pretty active family and with the beautiful weather here on the Sunshine Coast, Australia we're definitely outdoors people. Working towards getting fit and healthy so I can keep up!
Happy for anyone to add me

Day 6 of the No Junk Food challenge, and I'm still doing really well, avoiding temptation and sugar. Not even feeling tempted now.

I should have joined in BUT I’d probably flunk smh. 2 weeks left of term before a break and of course I’m stress eating.

@cbennett3026 @steffibabiie Welcome to Mission Slimpossibles!

Hi friends! Not feeling too hot but wanted to say hi and wish you all a great Thursday. Pulled my upper back getting out of bed yesterday, whenever I get flared up I try and analyze how to prevent it again but I did actually use good body mechanics so it's just one of those stupid things. I stetched and tried to go to the farm yesterday but even separating garlic cloves was hard after a bit. I left for home early and have been resting a lot ever since. The main area I pulled feels better but it got my whole spine flared up, hopefully tomorrow at least the headache will be better. My aunt was in town and I haven't seen her for about 5 years, hopefully next time I'll be able to. My cats are being super cuddly which is the bright spot right now.

Here we come September, any personal goals for it aside of no junk? I have to say my cravings are way better right now but eating produce and protein makes anything quick a PITA!

Idalia brought us a few gusty breezes and less than a half inch of rain. I threw the junk food challenge out the window for a couple of days while I stressed about rebooking my trip. Back on track today. Flying out tonight.

@Neon_Ninja For returning members, their starting weight for next month is from their weigh-in day this week (the last week of the previous month). For new members, we can use either the weight provided on sign up day or you can update it on your given weigh-in day of the last week of the previous month (yesterday, 8/30 - or this Saturday if you'd like to change days). If that makes any sense...

But yes, feel free to change weigh-in days, too, if that helps. Just let me know.

@DrewsAnna Wow amazing job cooking up some tasty food!

@Cornanda Have a safe flight!

@trooworld Boy your coworker is just scattering temptations everywhere! I would've eaten them too but yikes! What kind of sign for your computer, I didn't catch that?

Hi friends. Still hangin in there, did some stretching and light ab stuff this morning but aside of that sticking close to home resting. Have the rest of Magic Lessons to finish. I've had popcorn the last two nights but am staying away from it tonight and sticking it under “junk” or else I'll need to shop for new clothes. You'd think having my walker in the bathroom to get in and out of the tub would be depressing but it's become my cat's favorite place to hang out so it makes me smile every time I see them on it. One of my tomatoes lost all it's leaves overnight so there's a worm taking advantage of my inability to search him down and squish him! Have a great Friday team.

@Katmary71 YES!!! And they put more stuff in there: those big tins from Costco with European cookies that have Belgian chocolate in them. I was going to write a sign and put on my computer that said, "Stay out of the break room" but I forgot. How's your back? I'm sorry about your tomatoes.

@sleepygirl79 That's awesome you went for a run! Congrats! It's always hard when you go on vacation and get out of your routine. Feel free to join in the junk food challenge at any time, when and if you are ready for it.

@micaroo4 You are rocking it!

Hi all. Well, I forgot to make my sign. I had good intentions but I didn't. I did have some junk yesterday and I'm disappointed in myself but I will do better today, I am working from home so it should be easier since we have no junk in the house.

My phrase for the year: "Every choice is another chance to change my health for the better."

@DrewsAnna - All set for Wednesday weigh-in. Thanks!

Hey everyone! Just a few questions..

When does the actual September challenge start, on Sunday or Monday? And we will have a new September discussion thread?
And do we just post our weights here, or do you want us to add it to the spreadsheet as well?
When I posted my starting weight, that was my weight from the day I did the sign up post (Wednesday), can I have it updated to my Tuesday weight as that will be my weigh-in day? It was 94.8kg (209.0 lbs)

Also, I'm a day ahead of most of you as I am in Australia, so while it's Friday afternoon for many of you, it's Saturday morning here. Just in case anyone wonders why I'm posting my weekly weigh in on what might seem to be the wrong day 😅

I hope everyone has a good weekend and good luck this month reaching your goals!

@sleepygirl79 I'm glad you got that run in!

@micaroo4 Woot woot go you, you're doing awesome!

@trooworld Oh no that's way too tempting to be around all the time, I can see why working from home is easier!

@gemwolf110 Love that photo, happy September!

@steffibabiie There will be a Mission Slimpossible September thread starting soon for this month and everyone will do intros in it which will help A LOT for getting to know everyone. The challenge if you mean No Junk started and you're welcome to join in at any time. You just post your weights here, you can see some examples of that above your post. Tag @BroncoBuddee (like that with the @ at the front) and let him know you'd like to change your weigh-in day. OK I can't answer the time difference one, I'm guessing it may be easier to say you're checking in Wednesday but for you it's Tuesday but I'll let you and BroncoBuddee solve that one.

I have a friend who lives in New Zealand and I'm always telling her to make tomorrow extra beautiful for all of us following behind, now I can say that to you too. Have a great weekend!

Hi friends, starting to feel a little better. I deliberately stayed home resting thinking I was going to the garden club tomorrow but it's postponed until next weekend. I did do light strength training and stretching today and that felt great. Did good with food yesterday so I'm not doing as bad as I was thinking. I'm supposed to be having the fence stained and back door repaired but am not sure if it's still happening, I'll have to trap the cats in my bedroom so I'm not looking forward to it! Doing great with no junk. I'm planning on a trip to the farmer's market in the morning for some fruit, figured I deserve a little yummy healthy food since I can't eat a lot right now. Have an awesome Saturday!

@Katmary71 thanks! I actually just meant the main challenge. I don't really have an issue with junk food, so won't be taking part in that challenge.

As far as the weigh in day, I want to keep it as Tuesday, though when I make my post it will be Monday for most of you. I didn't think it should be an issue just clarifying as to why it might seem like I'm posting early

Should I still tag @broncobuddee with my updated starting weight of 94.8kg/209.0lbs? I guess I just did anyway!

Thanks again x
