This is a Weight Loss Challenge (not an exercise challenge) so more focus on food in the HH's was greatly appreciated. Both the fiber and protein HH's were much needed and a great new focus. Maybe in the future there could be a minimum amount (USDA standard?), to collect points. I think maybe most have set the bar too high…

WL Please

It was a CHALLENGE!! But a much needed one. Hadn't realized how off track I had become when it came to fiber until faced with having to track it. Eye opener for sure!

Loved the protein challenge The bonus points helped motivate those of us that normally meet our goal to add a bit more.

Thank you @Ceriusly1 for all the time and effort you have put into the Intentional Eating HH and coming up with solutions to the main complaints. This was all done while dealing with personal family issues and that is a testament to your dedication and loyalty to the well-being of the challengers. I absolutely agree with…

@dbeau57 Losing a child is the hardest thing you will ever do. Take comfort in that you were there to comfort and care for her in her last months and you were with her in her final moment. Your DD knows how much you love her and you will see her again. The pain will lessen and in time the hole in your heart will get…

Ahhh.... @cory17 Fiber is a great one!

Prioritize Protein ~ Eat Protein with all meals and snacks. Prioritizing protein in your diet can help you build muscle, maintain a healthy weight, and reduce your risk of chronic disease.

Approx 20 challenges under my belt and the 5% Challenges are still the glue that holds my weight loss in check. Lost 66+lbs and kept if off for 3 yrs, then life hit hard. Up 20lbs, but if it wasn't for the support and encouragement of my team I would have gained it all back, plus some. No matter if you need to lose 100'sof…

@kaliswalker Many team members have commented that having the list of LTGL's for the entire challenge in advance is quite helpful. Would it be possible to get this posted for this challenge?

@Dianedoessmiles1 The LTGL's aka Healthy Habits, that we work on each challenge have helped me through many situations and rough days. Even though many of the LTGL's are repeated challenge after challenge I learn something helpful each time. Also, participating in the 5% challenges motivates me to exercise more to help my…
