    Successes/struggles this week: Im almost down a pound! Small step in the right direction! I was better at logging everything I'm eating and being honest about it. I didn't get in as much exercise as I wanted, but I have no excuse!
    My goal is stay strong through the weekend and be more active and not pig out.
    Next week: 30 minutes of activity 5 days, incorporate lifting weights and continue logging every bite.

    Hope everyone has a successful 2nd week :)

    Weight lost/gained this month:- 0.6 lb
    Successes/struggles this week: Realizing that my activity level is “Sedentary” rather than “Lightly Active” which means that I won’t lose weight as quickly as I would like. Which I knew was true, but I was hoping that I could bend reality with my mighty brain.

    So happy for the results!! This is just week one and I am aware a lot of the loss is due to water. I reduced by sugar intake, no late night eating, tracked my calories and joined the challenge. Thank you everyone for the support!

    Wow excellent

    Successes/struggles this week:
    While I am happy I didn't gain, I'm so frustrated with myself. I log (or write down) my breakfast and lunch, then everything goes down hill. I stop weighing, and just eat without tracking anything. I also had a box of brownies. Yes, I ate the entire box. I'm going to try to stay on track this week, and get moving.

    Congratulations everyone on your successes so far!

    Only just saw this but hope it's ok to join in anyway. I've checked back in my Fitbit record to find my weight from the beginning of the month.

    Name: Kristabel
    Age: 37
    Height: 5'4"

    Start Weight (1st May): 12st 11.9lbs (that was 30th April cos I didn't weigh on 1st May)
    Goal Weight (1st June): 12st 3lbs

    1st May: 12st 11.9lbs
    8th May: 12st 6.3lbs

    Weight lost/gained this week: 5.6lbs loss
    Weight lost/gained this month: 5.6lbs loss

    Successes/struggles this week: I've been off MFP and exercise for 6 weeks due to having some physio, but I had my last physio session yesterday and I re-started logging everything on 4th May. It's also the week after TOTM so a lot of the large drop in weight this week is due to water retention. Today's weight is also the lowest I've been for 7 years so I'm very pleased with that :smile:

    Update - Week 1

    Name: Blake
    Age: 22
    Height: 5'5.5''

    Start Weight: 129.5
    Goal Weight (May 22): 127.5

    1st May: 129.5
    8th May: 129.0

    Weight lost/gained this week: 0.5 lbs
    Weight lost/gained this month: 0.5 lbs

    Successes this week: I went out drinking/dinner and ate my meal, came home, and did not eat anything else. Usually this is very hard for me to do because since I am out and about drinking, my mind then thinks its "okay" to eat whatever it wants all night.

    Struggles this week: This was my last week of graduate classes. I have been extremely fatigued the past few days and when that happens I look for food to keep me "awake" and my mind happy.
