Did you weigh-in?

Hi Team ORANGE.

Several of us missed the weigh-in on Sunday - Yikes!  What's going on?  What can I do?

Please contact Cyndi today to report your weight.  Even if it's not what you were hoping for, it is what it is.  There's no beating ourselves up or giving up.  It's all about seeing what worked and what didn't and what we can tweak as we hope for greater success for the next weigh-in.

I leave you with the task to reflect back on what motivated you to join this challenge in the first place.  Are those reasons still valid?  Than you still need to keep trying.  Failure is really not an option.  You know how to get where you are, you already got there.  It's time to figure out how to get where you want to be.  Doing nothing won't get you there.  Giving up won't get you there.  Sticking with it WILL.  Maybe not as fast as you want but it WILL. Science is on our side -I've said it before.  Eventually eating less and moving more will result in weight loss.  And moving less and eating more will result is weight gain.  Those are truths that cannot be justified or excused away.  So - go back to your reasons for starting this challenge to help you accept these truths and decide which one will rule your life.

  1. Betsy. thanks for keeping me going. I have struggled so much with this challenge. I did not know what a mess I was until I really looked at myself and accepted it was true. My battles are daily and most I loose but I am keepin on and will Win the war. I have finally given in to drinking more water. I am drinking about a 2 litre a day. I think I need to invest in the toilet paper company! LOL. I did send in my weight yesterday but did not get a confirmation from Cyndi that she got it.

    see you soon. Teri

  2. Teri - GREAT job on the water. I think we notice those extra bathroom breaks in the beginning, but eventually our bodies adjust and start using the water so it isn't as big a deal. Do you notice yourself feeling any better for drinking water? Cyndi did get your note - you are officially 'weighed in'. Keep up the good work! I feel that you are in this for the long haul and I can't wait to see where you are emotionally and physically in a few months or even a year. I think you will surprise yourself.
