Username: MelsLeanDream Weigh in week: November Week 1 Weigh in day: Wednesday Previous Weight: 256 Current Weight: 257 I have just gone back to teaching and I still have my night job. I'm knackered and not looking after myself. Hopefully everything will settle back down again soon...

Is anyone else having trouble getting onto the google spreadsheet? I can't get it to load at all from the link on the main page...

Hi. I think I totally missed my weigh in day last week? Work has been hectic! I went from 9 hours to 38 hours in one week due to absences. I'm exhausted and didn't watch my food the way I should have. Hopefully this week will be better. On the bright side I racked up over 20k steps a day!

Final weigh in Previous weight 237.4 Final weight 237 I’m getting a cortisone shot in my shoulder on Monday and then I’ll be back to the gym.

I’ve been terrible with the challenge over the last week. I’m currently in hospital with my 9 year old as he’s had a surgery. It’s been hard to be healthy while here :/ Didn’t weigh in last week as I couldn’t get to a scale. Managed it this week and it’s not good. Hoping for a better result next week when we are…

Hi. I'm late with my numbers and I'm sorry. School holidays have just begun and my MIL in with us until Thursday next week. I'll do my weigh-ins...but my other usual interaction will be minimal until I have my house back! The two new extra challenges look great and I can't wait to get started on them both. Username:…

I have been a bit MIA this week. I have very close friends in NZ who have had a terrible tragedy and I am sitting here in Australia devastated...there is nothing I can do to help them which means my steps and water have been all over the place. Hopefully I can up my game in the new week/month. My kids have just started a…

How do you handle it emotionally when you think you’ve done awesome all week long and the scale doesn’t reflect your hard work? I look back over MFP...did I do all I could 'foodwise'? Did I drink my water? Was I active this week? Emotionally...while I may be disappointed; I just choose to look forward and keep working on…

I weigh daily because I like to know how my body reacts to certain foods. I don't get upset about it...it's generally tracking downwards. If I jump on and its gone up I can look back and figure out what I ate or if I didn't have enough water or its coming up to shark week. It works for me =) I only 'record' my weight once…

@MelsLeanDream : wow, your steps are impressive. Share your tips guru. and keep going! I have two young sons...a house to take care of and I work most nights on my feet :) Nothing too exciting!

QUESTION OF THE WEEK - What do you eat right before bed that keep you from waking up hungry in the middle of the night? Good Question! I don't tend to eat too much after dinner when I'm focused (however I'm not always that good which is why I'm at my current weight!) When I am focused....I make up a bunch of diet jelly…
