    Challenge Start weight 87.3 kg (192lb)
    8 January weight 86.2kg (190lb)
    That's 1.1kg down (or 2lb), so I'm happy with that.

    My focus has been on making sure I log what I'm eating and I have, every day except Sunday. Even when I stay within my calories, some of my food choices are poor; I'm not feeling particularly motivated to address that yet, even though I know I will feel so much better when I do.

    Also, pushing myself to exercise - I've finished week one of C25K, and plan to do day 1 week two tonight. I've really struggled to finish the run part of it each time; I could walk for hours but running is where my poor fitness shows up. Been doing some resistance too, but I'm a bit disorgainised there so something to work on over the coming weeks.

    How has the first week of 2015 been for everyone else?

    Congrats on your loss! That is wonderful. I weigh on Fridays so I am in hopes of a 2 pound loss also. Keeping my fingers crossed. I am still logging all food, but like you I stay within my calories but I know sometimes my choices are not the best. I also am struggling with my water intake. In the summer I have no problem but with the cold weather I am always freezing so the last thing I want to do is drink cold water and I am not real fond of warm or room temp water.

    Starting weight : 167

    Current weight: 162.4

    That means I'm down 4.6lbs in one week. I'm thinking some of that has to be water weight or something. I've been counting calories and exercising so I'm just going to keep that up.

    Jan 1st 239.8
    Jan 8th 233.9

    Thats a 5.9lb loss. Im putting that down to just returning to eating normally after the december binge. Next week will be the real test as my bike training starts in earnest so i have to be really carefull about how much, what type and when i eat.

    3lb more and i will be at my dec 1st weight.

    Loss - 2.5!

    I'm doing 30 DS, and didn't start until 1/5 so I probably could have lost more if I had started on 1/1...but I'll take it! :smile:

    Loss- 1.4 lbs

    I'm still struggling with wanting to mindlessly eat, especially at night. I stocked up on decaf teas so I'm hoping that that will help a bit with occupying my mind/hands at night. It's also worse when I'm tired so I try to go to bed earlier.

    Still working with "what a portion" really is, lol! I am struggling with wanting to snack during the day. However, I am enjoying the energy levels that are up and the the lightness of not feeling to stuffed in my own skin! Congrats to everyone's hard work this week!

    So 4.2 pounds! Not sure if most of that is water or not, but I'll continue what I'm doing and see how it goes next week. At any rate that's a good start to the challenge! Good luck with your weigh-ins everyone!

    Start Weight(Jan 1st): 222.3lbs
    Current Weight(Jan 8th): 218.4lbs
    Down 3.9lbs in one week.

    Also started training for a half marathon on Jan 1st, race is March 7th. Out running every day which is probably helping a lot. Contacting a charity to run it for them has kinda forced my arm and made me really commit to it, which is good! The charity is Autism Ireland, I might include the donations link in a future post if nobody minds? I don't expect anything from anyone here but just in case someone feels like they want to donate a little, it's a really great charity.
