This is awesome and inspiring. My exercise this week has come from other activities besides getting towards my running goal but this has sparked motivation that I need to jump back on that. Great job again!

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no Mon: yes/yes/yes Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed: tracked: yes under: no exercise: yes I had a dinner that was out of my normal weeknight routine last night so that put me over. Tonight I get to watch the Eagles lose to @swauters Packers on Thursday night football (yes we are very negative in the…

Oh I don’t think I deserve any kind of thanks. I just had a moment of open honesty and then all of you really turned this around. As far as the weighing yourself everyday vs once a week topic, I prefer to do it only around twice a week. Usually around Tuesday to see where I stand and then again on Friday for my actual…

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no Mon: yes/yes/yes Tue: yes/yes/yes Also, thanks to everyone who tried to keep my head on my shoulders last week. I can get pretty negative at times.

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no (Saturday killed my Sunday) Mon: yes/yes/yes (only got activity cause of work but i’ll take it) Sitting in jury duty today. Been on my butt for hours now. I did bring protein bars so I wouldn’t have to walk over to fast food on lunch. Going to hit the gym once they let us go so my body actually…

Really made something out of this month. Very nice

Truly is made by Sam Adams. Most seltzers or fruity malt drinks are made by beer companies. We distribute hundreds of different projects

So so so sorry. I can’t even imagine the pain

Mini-challenge Sun: yes/no/yes Mon: yes/yes/no Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed: yes/yes/yes Thu: no/yes/no Fri: no/no/no Sat: no/no/yes Water Wed: 16 Thu: 12 Fri: 12 Sat: 3 Yesterday was Irish Weekend at the Jersey Shore. It’s the unofficial closing of the shore season and basically another St Paddy’s day. Work for a beer company and…

Oh no, hugs to you and your family

Hope all is well now. Family first always

Well as you can see from my tone in my post above, I am not handling it well. But that is not every week. Honestly with my depression/mental state it varies all the time. Sometimes I am “okay with it” and ready to move on and conquer. Sometimes I want to throw my scale through the wall. This week I have had two really bad…

Weigh in Last: 244.4 This: 243.9 This is so dumb. Overall I felt I had a pretty good week. Even on my bad personal days I stuck with my diet and I increased the intensity of my workouts. How many months have you guys watched me linger between 242 and 246?

I think calories don’t ever count on vacation. Okay so that is a stretch but vacations are for a break from things. From work, stress, or whatever we need it to be. Enjoy every moment of your trip! Plus, I am sure you will do plenty of walking there to burn a lot of those treat calories

So many great losses this week. Great job team! Mini-challenge Sun: yes/no/yes Mon: yes/yes/no Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed: yes/yes/yes Thu: tracked: no under: yes exercise: no Today totally got away from me, work was insane. I spent all day driving or in meetings. I was so mentally spent I skipped the gym. Bad excuse, and I hope…

Mini-challenge Sun: yes/no/yes Mon: yes/yes/no Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed tracked: yes under: yes exercise: yes Took another 30 seconds off my mile time. Plus I added in some weights and walking

That is amazing!

Could I be added to the water challenge. I have had 14 cups both days so far

Mini-challenge Sun: yes/no/yes Mon: yes/yes/no Tue tracked: yes under: yes exercise: yes I was able to shave a minute off of my time running a mile this week. 1 more minute to get off by next Thursday to meet me goal. Also do I enter my water here? Or can I enter it on the sheet myself?

My problem there is I would eat the entire container in one sitting without realizing it 😬

I’m gonna go with the same thing, pretty much exactly except for the times. Since I have started intermittent fasting I only have the 8 hour window to eat. So I don’t have any food from 7:30-8pm until around Noon the next day. I wake up around 7am and I just have water and coffee all morning until I can eat. I guess the…

Mini-challenge Sun tracked: yes under: no exercise: yes Mon tracked: yes under: yes exercise: no Stayed under calories today but since I stayed up late to watch the Eagles suck and lose I only got about 5 hours of sleep so I didn't have energy to go to the gym after work. On to tomorrow

@cmhubbard92 I can’t even imagine trying to workout at home with a puppy running around. But I’m sure it provides plenty of other activity. I had 66 messages to read through so sorry if I do not credit things already said. I would like to do the water challenge. Someone said something about drinking water as soon as you…

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no Mon: yes/yes/yes Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed: yes/yes/yes Thu: yes/yes/yes Fri: no/no/no Sat: yes/yes/yes I’m trying to make this football Sunday healthier than last week. Smoking chicken as opposed to the pizzas last week. And since my team has a night game I am off to the gym now to at least burn…

I hope no one felt attacked or anything by my comments, that was not my intention. @HASWLRS I was absolutely not putting any blame on you. It is okay to have your heart not in it, doesn’t that happen to all of us? It was more of a group observation - myself included. But look at the ideas floating around!

Weigh in last: 246.3 this: 244.4

So this is going to be my last month here. I was hoping this month would pick back up with the interaction and support but i’m just not feeling it. Not getting what I want, and sometimes need out of this. To end on a positive, I am really motivated towards my health goals and am feeling good. I will still weigh-in for the…

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no Mon: yes/yes/yes Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed: yes/yes/yes Thu: yes/yes/yes

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no Mon: yes/yes/yes Tue: yes/yes/yes Wed: yes/yes/yes

Mini challenge Sun: no/no/no Mon: yes/yes/yes Tue: yes/yes/yes Looks better than it is. Football Sunday was so unhealthy it probably negated Mon & Tue. And THAT is why I stay in this rut. Work hard all week, sabotage on the weekend, repeat.
