    Good Morning MFP Buddies,

    Here we are… the final weigh in of the challenge. I did really well this week even though I missed my challenge goal by 2.5 pounds. I’m pleased. This week, I increased my walking and decreased my caloric intake by 150 calories per day (which Was super difficult for me). I’ve lost 28.5 pounds over these last three months with your constant support and encouragement. I thank you all for keeping me focused and motivated. I intend to participate in Jeda’s next challenge which is a continuation of this one, and hope to see many of you there. A special thanks to Jeda. Good luck to you all on your fitness journey.

    What a blessing! At the beginning of the challenge, I remember thinking, “it would be so cool to get to 220 by the end of September,” and little did I know, I would be at 217! The power of consistency is so amazing! Thank you all for the accountability, whether you know it or not. This is more than posting an update on a message board. There is a mental element to it, and I am excited to see what we accomplish in the fall!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

    This week I have been good food wise and excerzise wise. Also I might have identified as a sponge Monday morning because Tuesday morning I was down one kg over night.
    Then I have been chipping away at some weight till yesterday I was 78.2. But this morning I lost another kg overnight. Wich I am not sure where went. Might have to use my old scales and my current scales to see if there is something wrong with the current scales. The dog is currently sleeping with its head out the catdoor. Ending summer where I started. Will weigh in tomorrow to start the fall challenge. I sort of expect to see something between 78.2-77.2.
