So how is everyone doing?
I put my house up for sale. So, last week was non stop cleaning, repairing and staging to get it ready to sell. I didn't go to the gym but I sure got a work out. This week I plan on getting back on track. I will have to stop going to the gym every single night so I can keep my house cleaned for showings. But, after I sell…

7 week check in
How's everyone doing? I had a sucess. Maybe not on the scale, but I have lost inches PLUS I walked a 5K on Saturday and did it in 1 hour and 4 min which comes out to be about 21 min miles. YEAH!! I was very happy with the results. So what successes has everyone else done?
6th week check in
So how is everyone doing? It has been a month an a half since we started this team. I have not had success with weight loss but I have cut out the caffeine, cut out the breakfast sandwiches and cut back on going out to lunch. I have also tried to make dinner more often at home. So, its still a success and I am hoping these…

Some of us have continued to struggle. (Me) I know that life has challenges but I for one need to stop using these challenges as an excuse to not do what…
Fell down, getting back up
No surprise, my avoidance to logging in is because I have not been very good. Between a camping vacation and deciding that I needed to quit drinking coffee I have just done very well. Today is a new day, I have not lost this week, but will be getting back on track........ so you can all give my advice right back to me.
Small Success
I think this should be kind of like a non scale victory (NSV) post. We can share things like.....I have not had a sweet tea in almost a whole week.....or I worked out today even though I really didn't want to.....or I skipped on the goodies in the break room and had an piece of fruit. Long term success is just a string of…
Third week check-in!
How is everyone doing? I see some of us are doing really well and others (me!) not so well. Congratulations to you guys who have ate right this week and kept it moving. Keep up the good work. To those of you still struggling (me!) maybe its time to try a different approach. I found this success story on here of a lady who…
