    Woot woot. I'm actually surprised that I lost two whole pounds. I'm just starting back and usually I stay stagnant for the first month and then it all comes off. It was a pleasant surprise to hop on the scale and see that number.

    Looking forward to getting on track again. 2015 seemed to be a "maintenance" year so this is my motivation to kick some fat.

    I'm a mfp veteran and vegan so feel free to friend request.

    I had to change my weigh in date to Friday. I am really encouraged by the results!!!
    2 more pounds gone!!! Just over 1 lb to go and I will have hit the 5 lb goal!!!

    Today I am struggling... The weather is icky, I am tired and have PMS. Therefore, I am craving chocolate..Lots of it. This too will pass. I am sure. It's just not easy getting through it.

    I know I am going to go over my calories today. My hubby and I are having a date night and going out for supper. Some things are worth it. :)

    Holy smokes batman another loss! Really motivating to see the weight actually coming off. Had some problems with my teeth this week so I think part of this was from the fact that I had a lot of soup and liquids this week rather than whole foods.

    Hello, I'm new to this. I officially started on Sunday.

    Coming off the weekend, success was getting myself to the treadmill and I ran a mile. It's was a huge feat for me. I also tracked and maintained my calorie count without eating into the 75 calories I burned for that mile.

    Continuing the workout and watching what I eat will be the challenge. But that's why I'm here.

    Wrong direction scale! I'm hoping this is just a blip.

    The scale may say I have gone up, but my jeans are saying I'm losing my Christmas weight gain.

    Just over a week to go. We can do this!!!
