@jessicakrall8 and @pupowl can you move me to team support for the next month. I appreciate it.

Whoo hoo @cre804 @Cyncia85 @Pupowl for leading our group on weight loss percentage! Keep up the commitment and thanks for the inspiration! @Zaxa2021 you can do it! You had your break and now you can get back to eating healthy and giving it the right fuel it needs for all those runs you do!

Monday- PW 179.6 CW 179.8

@LaurieWrobo & @Armygirlarmyof1 good job on your steps! Way to kick off the weekend! @cre804 & @jlswensen Nice weight loss!! @jessicakrall8 so glad the storm has passed!!

@CasandraW welcome back after a wonderful summer break! Thanks for sharing the article too! @jessicakrall8 🤞🏻the storm will pass you with minimal issues!! Stay safe! @Mulecanter the first one heading off—that’s big! Hope you he a great experience and adjusts quickly! @frankwbrown great commitment to your monthly step…

Every ounce of weight loss counts! Every bit of exercise you do counts! Every little substitution you do counts! Don’t minimize any work you’re putting into this journey! Don’t forget to record because all those bites and tastes can add up too 😉

@Pupowl love the hedgehog pictures! You are so lucky that you get to catch glimpses of those cuties! @PatriceFitnessPal you are so close to your goal range!! Great job maintains your weight loss! @nancyinmo beautiful view! So glad you’re happy with the move! @LaurieWrobo I’m sorry for your family’s loss 😞 I hope you were…

I love that you posted this! “ Just shows that plain old counting calories works.” This was a great reminder and incentive to me! Thank you!!

Positive thinking is so important for us all! Make a SMART goal today and see how it feels to accomplish it. I will drink 64oz of water today by dinner time. I will walk 30 minutes during my lunch hour. (SMART:Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timely)

@Pupowl I love the hedgehog basket! It’s so sweet you’re gathering things for your new resident family! The mushroom cup is so fun too! Good finds! You have been doing amazing on your calorie counts too! Nice loss this week!

@Pupowl I’m sorry you didn’t have a good night! What an amazing find though- a little hedgehog family! So cute!!

My friend posted this today and it’s a good reminder if there are any procrastinators out there like me…

Weigh day… Since I haven’t been any better than maintaining—I don’t like posting. I’m in this group to be focused and lose weight and as @Cyncia85 said—I’ve been procrastinating 😉 I’m really hoping this is my last maintenance weight I throw out here. Looking at the silver lining… At least I am maintaining and not gaining.…

@magnusMLQ and @JenHul nice weight loss this week! Way to start us off!!

@Becoming_A_Butterfly I’m glad you took a me-day! Anniversaries are hard but getting back in the swing and taking care of yourself and replicating your mom’s example of living a fit life is definitely a way to honor her ❤️

@Cyncia85 thank you so much for your thoughtful response! You are right, I need to set boundaries. I actually had a seminar today on difficult conversations and they talked about advocating for yourself. Draining myself doesn’t win any awards—I need to speak up and discuss what is reasonable for my new schedule. I love all…

@Jlswensen I feel for you! I hate when my plantar fasciitis or other feet problems act up! Feel better soon! Hope the stretches and ice helps! @Pupowl you have been doing so awesome with your #s! You’ve been especially good with your calorie goals! Way to @bearchested I’m like you too. I tend to focus hard on one area of…

@jessicakrall8 I think that’s a great idea for thr next challenge. I was excited when I saw your current one and I bookmarked it but then totally forgot about it until Tuesday. I was bummed to miss out? I’ve never done a challenge, do I just start writing and join in or do I have to officially join it? Thanks! The temps by…

I’ve always been a stress or emotional eater. Recently I just received a promotion but my replacement for my current job (same company) doesn’t start for another month. I’m learning my new position and helping out my old department by doing all the mandatory requirements for them so they don’t fall behind. I’m feeling the…

@lacatgirl and @Pupowl and @Zaxa2021 nice losses!! Whoo hoo!! @izzyred9400 what a beautiful place to visit! Feel better! @Itadakimasu7 and @frankwbrown @Cyncia85 I loved the pictures and what a beautiful day you picked to enjoy the Chicago skyline!

Way to go @Armygirlarmyof1 !! Hope you’re doing something enjoyable on your time way! Enjoy!

Weigh day PW 181.1 CW 179.9

Keep your eye on the bigger goal—don’t get bogged down or detoured by daily stumbling blocks! (Daily reminder I can use!)

Day 2, let’s go! My goal this weekend is 1-to record food for both Saturday and Sunday and no mindless eating. I will be accountable for everything I chose to eat.—completed for Saturday!! 2-total of 1hr of walking each day Did a one hour bike ride and some walking!

@lacatgirl thanks for sharing! As I read your last post, I felt I could’ve written half of that myself – it was so familiar! When I was on weight watchers, I was very successful at losing weight, but I also started to lose my hair, which told me I was too low in my calories. I was monitoring my thyroid levels, so I know it…

I’m being intentional this weekend! I decided on a protein shake for breakfast AND recorded it! I compared the nutrition to my eggs and toast and decided both were comparable but felt like a shake so chose that route. Win for me! Headed off to a sporting event with healthy snack and drinks. Then I’ll go for a walk. Making…

These were my favorites from the article below: 1. Ask yourself “What can I do today to move closer to my goal?” and do it! 2. Set your daily intentions 3. Be grateful 4. Spend time outdoors 5. Reserve some me time 6. Connect with others (Hi! 🤗) 7. Make time for mindfulness 8. Get out of your comfort zone 9. Journal 10.…

Sometimes it’s helpful to have a reset and have some reminders. Here’s an article from Mayo Clinic which elaborates each point more thoroughly of course 😉 Weight loss: 6 strategies for success 1. Make sure you're ready 2. Find your inner motivation 3. Set realistic goals 4. Enjoy healthier foods 5. Get active, stay active…

@Pupowl 8/31 7406 9/1 5957 9/2 4743 @Zaxa2021 I love that you updated your goal progress! That’s a fantastic way to show accountability. I need to remember that! Congrats on you PR on the 4 miles! @Becoming_A_Butterfly way to just commit and follow through on the exercise! @jessicakrall8 saying a prayer for you! @Cyncia85…
