Great words, @dommylifts! My goal is 23% body fat, which is probably around 145, although I've not been exercising and while sick and I've probably lost some muscle, so maybe it's more like 140 today. Anyway, I'm in the fight with you (at least, once I get better! Ugh!)

@lacatgirl We have you as a Saturday weigher, so Saturday Jan 5 is the Week 1 weigh-in (first CW) for you. We have your last weight from the December weigh-in as 174.3. You can check the info on the spreadsheets for yourself - both Dec and Jan are linked on the main TBL page

Thanks @BonnieHosk85 . I wish I'd gone to the doctor a week ago - I usually bounce back pretty quickly, so I didn't want to waste one of our vacation days sitting in a walk-in clinic but that decision is coming back to haunt me. Feels like everyday I think, ok, I'm a little better! And then something new happens. Today is…

Hi folks, I'm still recovering from this flu/ whatever else it's become. I'll post weigh in reminders tomorrow morning. Celebrating New year's in style be trying to sleep....

Happy Sunday, Week 1, Gutbusters! For those of you who are new to the group, here are some weigh-in FAQs: * When do I post my weigh-in? Post on your "scheduled weigh-in day". So, if you posted a weight in the New Member Registration thread on a Tuesday, then your scheduled weigh-in day will be each Tuesday of the month.…

Awesome!

Hi Folks! I'm Les - 40 (gulp, this just happened), mom of 2, wife of 1. I've lost 50 pounds since starting my weight loss journey in April, and I joined Gutbusters in May. I've learned a lot from the team along the way. I've got about 20 pounds of fat to lose before I'm at my goal. I've been working through the busiest…

@casem213 If you haven't yet done so, go to the January NEW MEMBER Registration/Starting Weights thread and post there.

Happy last Saturday of the 2018 challenge, Gutbusters! Here's a reminder for the Friday and Saturday weighers who haven't yet posted: Friday @Daloverlyme @fe452436 Saturday @auntdeb37 @californiajuls @emmclean @ShareASmile

Thanks, @BonnieHosk85 - People do more or less as their time and personalities allow, but minimally, we need to enter the weights in the big spreadsheet. I also try to remember to post the daily weigh-in reminders and a QOTW when I think of one. Other people certainly do more, but adding the weights and general…

Still under the weather, off computer. I'll try to be in tomorrow for the Saturday reminders. Anyone else interested in captaining for Jan?

Hi folks - looks like my Thursday weighers are posting - thank you, and good work on returning to your regular habits after the holiday, for those of you who celebrate. I'll be back tomorrow with the Friday weigh-ins. I seem to be getting my health back, and I'm looking forward to eating regularly and exercising beyond…

Goals report: Failing on all fronts. I first suspected I was sick on the long drive here, and now I'm just miserable: chills, headachy, coughing. I've got no appetite and I'm living off of protein smoothies. Was with family yesterday for dinner and ate nothing. Not how I want to lose. :neutral:

BTW, here are the results from December Week 3: The Biggest Loser Is... 1st - @inshapeCK. - 1.54% Congratulations! The TEAM Biggest Loser... 1st - The Big Butt Theory. - 0.52% 2nd - Flab-U-Less. - 0.21% 3rd - Gutbusters. - 0.20% - Neck and neck with Flab-u-less!

Happy Wednesday, Gutbusters! Today I'm looking for weights from: @12sarah2015 - Gotcha already - good luck this week! @caitlynns727 @inshapeCK @kkmark

Merry Christmas, and happy Tuesday!

My life changed in April when I got an InBody scale reading that showed my body fat % and a measure of visceral fat. Whether the scale is accurate or not, it was effective, because I came home, started an MFP account, did my first hasfit.com foundation workout, and got serious about taking care of myself. (What I'm not…

LesIckaBod December Week 4 Previous Weight: 163.7 Current Weight: 163.1 Back in my groove, by which I mean this weight I've been hanging out in for months. Good news: I'm at this weight after 2 days on the road and a late dinner last night at a delicious BBQ buffet with my childhood friend (we've known each other 30+…

Today is Monday, Week 4 December, Gutbusters! I'm looking for weights from: @amynew4u @eevang @michellelagle @ryjar80 @westray16 @zimborunner

Last week's QOTW didn't get much traction, so hopefully maybe this one will: Looking back at your 2018, what is the most important thing in your life that happened to you / you learned, and how will you use that experience to improve your life in 2019? I can see this question going all kinds of ways, so I hope you take a…

Happy Week 4, Gutbusters! It's the last Sunday of our 2018 competition, and today I'm looking for weights from: @Dommylifts @WishfulThinning18

We made it to our destination. Hoped for one night on the road, but a delayed start on Day 1 meant two days, with only 4 hours to go the last morning. That particularly 4 hours lasted for about 7 hours, because of lunch, bathroom breaks that should have happened at lunch but didn't, and high volume traffic plus some…

Happy Saturday, Gutbusters! It's the last day of December Week 3, and today I'm looking for weights from: @auntdeb37 @bonniehosk85 - Great progress so far this month! @californiajuls @emmclean - Are you on your trip this month? I hope it's amazing! @lacatgirl @ShareASmile

Posting from the road. Long road trip, kids are a little nutty, and we've got 2 hours to go. I've been eating my hard boiled eggs for breakfast, chicken breast and veggies at road stops, and hopefully I get to my destination without a road gain. Fingers crossed!

Happ Friday, Gutbusters! I'm looking for Friday weigh-ins today. ( Sorry, I don't have easy access to my list right now!)

Happy Thursday, Gutbusters! Today I'm looking for weigh-ins from: @Colleen790 - hang in there! @Grebber1 - you're almost to that big milestone! @Stimpy56

Happy Wednesday, Gutbusters! Today is weigh-in day for: @12sarah2015 @caitlynns727 @inshapeCK @kkmark

I hear you about the stall - I'm deep in it myself! This morning I was talking about this to my husband, and I made myself feel a little better by remembering that I've never maintained weight loss through this point in the year before. The fall/winter slog has always done me in. I know I'm not operating at a deficit right…
