    1st March: In Feb lost 3.3kg (7.3 pounds) and started the whole 30 diet 5 days ago. Always struggle with over eating.

    Keep it up everyone!

    Successes/struggles this week: Friend me. :)
    birthday week so lots of cheats!! This is my first week dieting/trying to be active after a three month hiatus. So I think it's mostly water weight that just came off. Alcohol is such a weak spot for me. I only went to gym once. Goal for this week is to get to gym three times.

    Struggles/successes this week: I'm still retaining water from my meds. I'm actually down about 4 lbs from my mid week weigh-in. I'll know how I'm doing for sure next weekend. This week, I struggled with my eating and sticking to my menu. Still, I was able to shave two minutes off my time in the 5k I ran on Saturday. I also went through some clothes I outgrew and put away a couple of years ago. I'm back in a size 18. When I started this journey, I was almost out of a 22 (really, I was a 24 in denial).

    No real struggles or successes just keep eating at a deficit. I haven't been working out an occasional workout or exercise activity. I need to start something. Now that the weather & windchill are out of the negative & even sometimes above freezing, I hope to walk.

    Successes/struggles this week: I averaged a net of 1009 calories/day and have a difficult time understanding how that equates to less than a pound lost in 7 days. Oh well, there isn't a thing I can do about it so I will just accept it.

    Oh that sucks! Next time, give me a call and let your family know I'll be having your share for you hehehee!!! Seriously though, don't stress. I went on a biz trip week before last, and when I weighed myself after I got back, I had put on *all* the 5lbs I had lost. But I just picked myself up, went right back to my pre-trip routine, drank a ton of water, and lost it all again within 4 days.

    My guess...water retention since everything I ate had way more sodium than my home cooking for sure and theres no way on earth I ate an extra 18,000 calories to actually gain back 5lbs of fat. Im guessing the same is true for you.

    You'll do fine... in the meantime, Im now dreaming about that chocolate pound cake hehe!
