GOAL WEIGHT RANGE: 135-140

No progress on the scale this week. Had a hot dog bun Saturday night so the scale this morning is actually 144.6 - using Friday's weight instead. I think I'll be using Friday weigh-ins from now on as I am really great about avoiding bread during the week but give in on the weekend. I did successfully avoid pizza at Pizza Hut last night - had a salad instead. Am going to focus on avoiding bread as it completely negates any progress for the week. And I see no benefit from workouts if my food isn't in check. Would be so much easier if I was truly allergic to gluten - those gluten reactions are horrific and I'd have no problem avoiding it. Guess it's time to pull out my willpower and get stubborn.

Hope you have a great week!

1) Get in 200 minutes of exercise a week. - Did this but disappointed that I did so just barely.
2) 10k steps a day - did this only twice last week, the other days were utter failures in my book.
3) Eat at a deficit each week... definitely didn't do this.

Pleased with progress but feel like it is a false victory. Would like to be much more motivated. Today I'm getting back on track.

Going to get my workout in now and get close to my 10k by noon!

Is anyone out there doing the 5:2 Diet? I am trying. I seem to yo-yo between fast days, and on average have not made much progress at all. Any thoughts?

Is 5:2 when you are fasting/eating usually? I learned from my experience, that organism needs stability. What do you think?
