    Successes/struggles of the week:
    All good this week. Protein's up, exercise has been consistent, and I've been sticking to a small deficit. I'm going to keep with it until I'm firmly at the bottom of my weight range, which will give me a bit of leeway when it comes to my holiday.

    5 June (9 June):
    12 June (16 June):
    19 June (23 June):
    26 June (30 June):

    Successes/challenges of this week:
    Successes:
    - Added daily tasks to my schedule to clean my house for an hour each weekday morning, and it seems to be helping me get things back on track with my housekeeping. Not perfect, but working.
    - Weight is trending back down as I had high weigh-ins due to DOMS last week after the races.
    Challenges:
    - Adding housekeeping tasks has made me slack for getting to the gym or going out to paddle as I count that activity as exercise.
    - Been super tired lately. Taking a lot of naps. Not sure what is up with that.
    - Have another race coming up next weekend and the weather isn't looking good for paddling next week (but at least my yard will get some much needed watering).

    Success/struggles of the week:

    I posted this in May’s thread but wanted to set up for June. I weigh in on Fridays.

    Anyway, Successes for the week have been that despite my hubby being home (more indulgences), PMS and family stress, my weight has remained the same! I still would like to lose a few to get to 118 but in the face of these challenges I feel very successful :)

    Where did the June 2 date come from? Won't this start the week of June 5th?

    Hey @nichell88 the dates of each week is set generically to a Monday. However, everyone who joins is free to weigh on any day they wish, hence the reason why I've added "week of" at the top. But some, also like to see their own specific weigh date on the thread too. You can adapt the dates to suit you.

    @fidangul right, no i get that, I guess I was confused as those that read June 2 also said "week of" above it, but June 2 didn't start the week. Just curious

    Success/struggles of the week: just trying to figure out what maintenance means while I am working towards body recomposition. It has been a mental adjustment because I would like to get down to 120 and I know that it is not the number that matters.

    Maintenance weight range: 124 - 128 lbs

    Average weight recorded from January: 127.1

    Average weight recorded from March: 126.2
    Average weight recorded from April: 124.9
    Average weight recorded from May: 124.9

    Week of...
    5th June: 122.8 scale/124.0 trend
    12th June:
    19th June:
    26th June:

    Success/struggles of the week: I'm a little low this morning and my trendweight is just barely within range. I was sick last week with a stomach bug, so I am blaming that for the dip this week and expecting it to come back up. My average weight for May was the same as my average weight for April so I thought that was good.

    26th June:

    Success / struggles of the week : uggh,where do i start? Couldn't really exercise because of the combination of time limits and now terrible weather, had a few days of out of control eating when i grab everything in sight, constantly paying visits to fridge and pantry, so up three pounds this week. A lot more than usual of takeouts and eating out because my son was home, even our dinners are different with more food on the table than i need, but having difficulty with saying "no" to myself with regards to it all. And in a few days going to visit my daughter, so more of eating out and delicious vegan deserts, but we would walk a lot, so won't be too bad, hopefully. Definitely looking forward to seeing my baby.

    Total Weight lost: ~50lbs
    Time it took to lose: 5.5 months
    How long in maintenance: about 3 weeks
    Maintenance weight range: 150-155lbs

    Average weight recorded from January: not recorded
    Average weight recorded from February: 182.4
    Average weight recorded from March: 173.5
    Average weight recorded from April: 164.5

    26th June:

    Success/struggles of the week: I think I've found my maintenance calories, which is definitely a success. However, it doesn't seem like mfp is super accurate regarding calories burned during exercise, so it looks like I am netting less than I am. I've got a lot of stressful things coming up, both good and bad, (starting a new job, annual family cookout, vacation, etc.) where I'm really going to have to focus, but I'm up for the challenge!

    Not at home and no scale. Weighed in Monday at 116# so all is right on target. I'll be back next week.

    Success/struggle: Been eating kind of a lot, but also running a lot. I hope it all balances out. I suspended logging as of last Wednesday. We shall see...
