    I had an awesome day at work today! My team got 100% on an audit! I celebrated with a brownie and a vodka tonic. Hello, sabotage! Now I'm going to have to work twice as hard this weekend!

    Last week I lamented a rotten day with beer! Went way over the limits, and cut back 100 calories a day last week. Lost two pounds!

    I'm 35 (I'll be 36 in March) and I NEED this 30-lb weight-loss challenge! I've lost around 30 pounds (in the past) but I need to lose exactly 30 more! I've been stuck not losing pass the 30-lbs marker. Maybe this group can help me make that change. I'm in!!

    Starting weight: 239 lbs 1/2/17
    Goal weight: 209 lbs by 6/15
    Current weight: 221.5
    weight loss to date: 17.5
    Weight loss method: low fat, low sugar, low calorie, logging everything I eat.... and TRYING to lay off the alcohol.

    1.5 pounds this week... this is truly miracle weight loss, because as of Friday I hadn't lost anything. I'm not sure what went wrong this week-- I still logged everything, I still made healthy choices. I must have been retaining water or something during the first half of the week.

    But the weight loss has definitely slowed down, so I have to incorporate exercise into my day. I found a very basic walking video online. It's 25 minutes long, and it's very low impact. I've only done it once so far, but it was completely achievable. I figured it was a good way to ease my way in to an exercise routine. Better than nothing!

    I don't expect to lose any weight in the next week-- I'm going to a week-long conference for work and they tend to stuff you full of food while you're there. I'll be happy if I don't gain!

    Have a great week!

    I'm trying something new. I've always been on a 2lb loss per week which as been OK so far but I'm stuck now and I keep going over calories. As soon as I see the minus sign and red numbers in my food diary I completely lose it and binge even more. I am all or nothing.

    I have increased my calories to 1.5lb loss so I have a 240 cals extra calories which will allow for some treats to keep me going. Also I decided to stick to porridge oats for breakfast as much as possible as if I start the day on my favourite, toast and butter, I get more cravings. It worked yesterday, just have to keep remembering to make small changes to my diet and not go on autopilot. Wish me luck!

    P.s finding this challenge extremely helpful in keeping mindful and resetting my bad habits. Also I feel very encouraged by the new friends I have gained. Everyone is doing so well. Thank you. Xxx

    @PaulineM80

    If you are finding yourself hungry, try putting your loss at 1lb a week. You may find you have enough calories to satiate you and once you start staying within your allowance, can reduce the amount from there on in.

    Good luck!

    Thank you.
    I'm going to give it a go. In the past I used the scales as my motivation, seeing 2lbs a week come off was enough to keep me going but since having children I have more to lose and finding it so hard preparing food for them and I don't have enough calories to eat. I need to do it this time, no more failed attempts as I'm becoming more concerned for my health these days and not just looking big.

    I was sick all last week with the flu. I ate mostly carbs and fruit. I didn't work out once. Back on this week (or trying to be anyway).

    I'm back to MDP. Would love to join in the challenge. Would love to be 30 pds lighter by June 15th seeing as I am heading to Florida on the 14th. Would love to be bringing smaller clothes and maybe a 2 piece bathing suit. I'm 52 and currently weighing in at 175pds. Life changes as a woman cause havoc, not to mention daily stress. Looking for support. To those who already lost weight, way to go!!
