    Thank you for starting the thread! I have been sick and have not done much of anything at all for the past week. :s

    Fortunately I stayed right around the weight level I was at before getting sick despite not tracking or worrying much about what I ate, so I'm not too far behind! Hopefully I'll get back on track with calories today. Since I want to get to my goal weight (or maybe even a pound or two lower??) before we leave on a trip on April 13, I am going to try to give my weight loss a little extra boost. So, the plan is to cut out refined sugar, bread, and pasta for the next month.

    But I may not be energetic enough to exercise for a few more days...

    Went to my Gran's for a chinese takeaway so absolutely no idea how much I ate, although I had 1,000 calories left to eat so it is possible I was under...

    March 19 - yes, yes, and yes

    March 20 - yes, yes, and yes

    I am so excited that I hit my goal weight this morning!! When I started, I wasn't sure that I'd ever be able to do it. And now I'm thinking I might try to go 3-4 pound lower. :smiley:

    March 20 (my fiance's birthday!)

    Did you track absolutely every thing you ate and drank today? Yes
    Did you stay under your calorie limit? Yes
    Were you active for at least 20 minutes? no

    I've noticed that I've changed my mentality on "indulging" . Yesterday was my fiance's birthday so we went out to eat at Baton Rouge, instead of just thinking "I have a freebie meal just have the biggest greasiest thing" I chose something that would fit in my macro for the day (ish) I ended up having a lovely lobster risotto

    Also I am 5lbs away from hitting my goal! woo!

    Great job on reaching & nearing your goal weights guys! Such a great feeling!
