  • I also got excited seeing it pop up too! Just shows how a good challenge never really dies! 😍
  • I am so excited for this to start! I definitely need that motivation too!
  • I’m excited to come back to this challenge! It’s been way too long, and I can’t wait! 😃
  • So happy to have the opportunity to return after a few terms out of Ilvermorny. Oh, how I have missed it being in the muggle world for so long has gotten me pretty depressed. Excited to be, hopefully, returning!
  • Happy Birthday to your granddaughter! :smiley:
  • Sounds like fun! I love going to car shows! Especially with my grandpa and hubby. They like to tell me all the specs of the different cars and the history behind some of their favorites. I don't think I'd enjoy it nearly as much without those little tidbits. :smile: I hope the weather is beautiful for your walk today!
  • Maybe a water challenge, @jdelaroy ? I'm doing really sucky with drinking my water lately. Something like, drink at least 64 oz of water a day for 5 days? Or something like that.
  • My hubby, daughter, and I went home to celebrate all the birthdays with my hubby's side of the family. My birthday was the 27th of March, and it is right in the middle of a bunch of birthdays on that side of the family. We have a grandma's on the 22nd, a cousin's on the 26th, mine on the 27th, a grandpa's on the 29th, and…

  • I'm okay with sharing measurements. :smile: It's funny, but I feel more safe and secure sharing my measurements with y'all than I do with some of my own family! Maybe that's because I know y'all won't judge me. And I know that we're all after the same goal, to get healthier! Sometimes, I feel like the people in our lives…
  • I took my measurements and will share them with you all tomorrow. My journal is still packed from going to see family this weekend. I'll get it out tomorrow and share. Thankful for our team Sixpack! :smiley:
  • These are awesome goals! 4.5 pounds is a lot! I'm a slow loser, so I like to celebrate every victory! No matter how "small" it may seem. :smile: And I am totally feeling you on the making healthy choices while out! We have been eating out with family so much lately, and it's hard to say no to the "usual" food I get.…
  • I love faith hill and Tim McGraw! You have such an awesome event to work towards! So excited for you and your daughter! :smiley:
  • Y'all are so awesome for doing this! Especially putting together a spreadsheet @jdelaroy! I haven't been doing super awesome this week at all, but I can't change the past. Looking on to tomorrow and making better choices. I'm going to take measurements tomorrow morning after I weigh in for the week. Friday mornings are my…
  • Bought a goal dress today for my birthday! It actually fits, just a little tight in a few places to feel comfortable wearing it out. So excited to try and fit into this by our Disney trip, which is about 6 months away! It is Beauty and the Beast!
  • Okay! The exercise challenge I am suggesting(and will do as well) is this popsugar fitness YouTube video: Burn 500 calories in 45 minutes: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zem0_qsDg0 I love this video, because it has mods for everything, makes me sweat, and is loads of fun! The challenge for myself is to do it three times…
  • What about exercise challenge? Are we just repeating the previous race? Or coming up with our own thing?
  • I like it, Jackie! :smile: I'm going to give up soda and sweet tea. I love tea without any sweeteners, so I don't know why I insist on getting them in it! Here's to a great week, Sixpack!
  • I love this idea! Yes! I am definitely not as motivated to log everything in to MFP since this challenge has ended. Also, life got a bit busier for me this past week with prepping for state testing with my daughter. I will be glad when that is over in a couple of weeks! And my husband has been sick for 3 weeks now and we…
  • Joining this fantastic challenge now! Love the idea of incorporating reading into weight loss! :heart: I'm going to start with my weight from the beginning of the year to be able to go through more books. Starting weight: 212 lbs. Philosopher's Stone has 223 pages. Added together, these numbers equal 7. [ :star: ] Lose…
  • I greatly enjoyed this race as well! Bummed about no Spring Race, but excited for the next Summer Race! :smile:
  • Woo Hoo! Excited to hopefully join this challenge this term! Completed typeform, and can't wait for it to start!
  • Challenge # 3: Complete! I ate a serving of each of these greens: Iceburg Lettuce, Spinach, Romaine lettuce, and Cucumbers. I enjoyed them all immensely and will continue to include green veggies into my regular eating plan.
  • Challenge # 2: Complete! I chose Sabai (Relax!) Your Feet! (Massage videos 48 mins), because I enjoyed them so much the first go around! And my feet thanked me for it last time. My feet greatly enjoyed these videos again, and I think they will become a permanent part of my routine every other week or so to help my feet…
  • Challenge # 1: Complete! I chose Sydney Bridge Clumb (1332 Combined Steps Up & Down), because the step challenges always keep me moving and groovin' more so than other challenges. My buns are feeling it after this week, and I appreciate the extra motivation! It was fun, and my daughter enjoyed watching me go up and down…
  • Y'all have been killing it!! I've been on the go this week, traveling to come help family this weekend. But, I've still been getting in my minutes! Just haven't been posting them yet! Going to get my notebook out after lunch and update everything, challenges and minutes! Excited to see Sixpack going for it this week!…
  • Ireland! I'm so excited! I am a good chunk Irish! So is my husband, so our daughter may have strawberry blonde hair and be very fair skinned. :wink: I would love to visit it someday and try and find where my family came from, if there's a trace. I am going to do “THE SYDNEY BRIDGE CLIMB” (1332 Combined Steps Up and Down)…
  • Hey guys! By really pushing those challenges, we made it all the way to 4th this week! Let's do it again on this last week! I think we can push to complete the challenges and try to get our highest score yet! Our highest was the first week with 1150, so let's try to beat that! We came close last week! I think we can do it!…
  • Hello Team!!! Sorry I have been quiet the last couple of days. Been hanging out with some extended family this weekend and had a fantastic time! I love that I can share my challenges with my family when I see them on the weekends. Did Jessica's video today with my mother in law. Well, she did part of the video with me and…
