    Successes/struggles this week: Some of my friends threw me a bridal shower on Saturday where I splurged quite a bit. I also have been feeling a little less motivated over the last few weeks. I think it's stress related and I just want to shut down. Trying to remind myself that the extra effort is worth it, even if I'm dead tired!

    Yay I was looking for this thread! Glad I finally found it, I'll add my info from the beginning of the month to catch up...

    Name: Tori
    Age: 26
    Height: 5'6"

    Start Weight (May 1): 195 lbs
    Goal Weight (June 1): 190 lbs
    Future Goal Weight: 160 lbs
    Ultimate Goal Weight: ????

    Weigh-ins:
    May 1: 195.0 lbs
    May 8: 194.1 lbs
    May 15:
    May 22:
    May 29:

    Weight -/+ this week: -0.9 lb
    Weight -/+ this month: -0.9 lb

    Note: So, I will be using my "weigh in" weight as the trend weight from the tracking app Libra. I weigh myself every day, but my fluctuations are (and have always been) super ridiculous, so I really can't trust my actual "weigh in" weight from the 8th- 192.3 - when my weight just this morning was 195 again! For me using the trend weight from the app, which uses averages and takes fluctuations into account, seems way more honest, and that is what I look at to calculate true loss for myself.

    Successes/struggles this week:
    Mostly struggles, sadly. My husband travels a lot for work, and last week he came home from a 3 week trip. During the 3 weeks he was away I actually did really really well. I ate a lot of healthy foods that he doesn't like (cauliflower, sweet potatoes, zucchini! Yum!) and had small meals. I used my free time to do YouTube workouts, instead of lounging. But when he came home I had a much harder time sticking to it. Between wanting to spend time with him as much as possible, cooking more "filling" dinners, and also getting together with our friends on weekends, I definitely let myself slip. But he's gone again now for 10 days, so I have a chance to get back on track...

    On a good note though, I just purchased myself a FitBit for my birthday coming up! I have been eyeing them up for a long time, and after last week's loss of accountability I can definitely see it as an awesome tool to keep myself motivated! I can't wait to get it!

    Successes/struggles this week: Beta blockers are my bane, likely getting off them or reducing them this month. Managed to tweak my diet a bit and eat better. Hospital is annoyed with me insisting on 5 min rest period from nurses before doing vitals. Had a lapse because of that and went to food, but caught myself after 5 chips.

    Successes/struggles this week: Cinco de Mayo was a struggle! I can't say no to tacos! I also went out a few times for the Kentucky Derby and Happy Hour so alcohol snuck up on me. I went down a pound a few days after the start and pretty much have maintained for the week. I don't have a lot to lose so I'm taking it slow!
