Way to go this week! Remember that it takes a while for working out and eating well to become new habits. Keep at it, and don't let temporary weight gains or plateaus get you down... because they're only temporary. We are moving forward and downward together!

Week weight loss: 0lbs
Total weight lost:6lbs
This week's successes: Exercised every day whilst off work
This week's challenges: Trying not to get despondent about no weight loss, despite exercising every day and food counting. Was disciplined, within calorie limit and should have lost weight. I'm physically stronger so hoping it's muscle development and just a blip. Anyone encountered and/or overcome similar?

I have found that when I limit my calories too much (1200-1300) or start with strenuous exercise, the scale is much slower to move. Are you measuring as well? That may help you track non scale progress.3 -

This week's loss: 3.1

This week's successes: Non-scale: Walnuts are my new biscuits, my strength ability is improving, and my runs aren't winding me out as quickly. Scale: My weight in kg is now in the 60s, only 7.4 kg or 16.3 lbs until a healthy BMI!
This week's challenges: My sleeping pattern is a wreck. Getting that back on track and organising school work to manage stress levels, otherwise elevated cortisol may be a frequent friend.
Happy healthy living everyone~11 -
