So, a little bit of context for this friendly debate. I am a contractor for the USDA with my company. I am one team and a colleague of mine is on another. Both our team leaders, who are federally employed with USDA, have been furloughed since Oct. 1. Today, I got a check in email from my team leader. He mentioned in his email that he got all his Christmas lights hung on the house. So, I know we all have different opinions on this, but I figured this would be a fun discussion as well. How early do you like to start decorating for Christmas or other December holidays you may celebrate?

Today was day 5 of my program and I’m proud I made it.

A late workout is better than no workout 🥰💪 lots of sweat and maybe a few choice words but we did it.

Introduce yourself here! Share: - Christina Casilla, I’m originally from New York currently living in Lansdale PA. I’ve been in PA for almost 10 years. - Ive been able to loose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle for the last 6 years but I just had a baby 10 months ago and I’m looking to find movement that feels good, get back into healthier eating (it was easy to make unhealthy choices when you have lack of sleep and a baby in your hip) and working out always helped my mental well being. - I’ve always found success when I had supposed so I’m seeking a community of support. - Looking to improve my self esteem. - I’m persistent and don’t like to give up.

A quick turnaround and we will start this Wednesday with the fresh slate of a new month! For now we will stick with daily themes to keep it simple but I’m all ears for what we can do to stay accountable for November and December when life and holidays are happening! Invite new friends!!! October will be free for all — it’s my birthday and I always give a ton in celebration - let’s get people in & being part of the movement!
