    I hope it is OK that I join late just rejoined MFP about 12 days ago. But will put my starting weight when I joined, and what it is now.

    Successes/struggles this week: I finally got back under 200! Woo hoo! I also already met my goal of reaching 200 this month & since we are only half way through the month, I changed my goal to 196. I'm very proud of myself for finally moving in the right direction.

    Workouts didn't go very well last week. I was feeling a bit lazy but I did a good job on my eating plan despite a couple of times that could have been disastrous. I am committed to getting 5 workouts in this week no matter what starting today with running & yoga.

    Successes/struggles this week: Need to work on my logging with the food scale without getting stressed out/overwhelmed. I keep hovering between 175 - 177, so I really hope I can break through that barrier... Didn't gain anything this week though. :) Also, I tried out Blogilates. I did a couple days of the beginner calendar, but I found that it hurt me. I really hope I can find a way to make my fitness better without injuring myself.

    Success/Struggles this week: I've been struggling lately with feeling unmotivated. I'm still keeping myself in check, but I was feeling down about my weight loss stalling for 2 weeks and having intense cravings for sweets and junk at the same time. I pushed through it and I'm glad I did, but it still gets me frustrated sometimes.
    On the plus side, doing a lot of strenuous gardening (cutting down a small annoying tree, mulching my big flowerbeds) gave me a pretty nice boost in my exercise this week, which is why I believe I was able to break through my 2 week weight loss slowdown! At least for now, anyway. We'll see what this week brings.

    Success/Struggles this week: Had a great week loss wise, food wise, exercise wise (did more walking, started to lift small weights to work on my flabby arms). Hit the 170s! Yay! Still a little bit under my goal per week if I want to hit 170 by July 1, but that's okay. I have 170 because it's a nice even number. Ha.

    Weight -/+ this week: -0.3kg
    Weight -/+ this month: -0.5kg

    Successes/struggles this week:
    - I'm really craving sweet food for some reason. Not even usually a huge fan.
    - Went massively over calories on one day
    - Clocked in at least 5000 steps, even they were last minute paces up and down corridors after the break of fast. Nearly got in 10000 on one day.

    Weightloss is really slowing down. Shouldn't fuss over it so much now though, but I just can't stop.

    Just realized filled out the 15th on the 13th ugh brain fart! I saw I logged in 15 days in a row and thought it was the 15th. ... will weigh in tomorrow. ... BTW could use some friends! !! Good luck everyone!!! And SonicKrunch.... don't beat yourself up over not having lost anything in a week. You have made progress if you realize it or not.... you may not have lost any weight which is HARD to do!!! But what's even harder to do is Not gain any, because it is so EASY to gain weight!!! Awesome job !!!

    Successes/struggles this week: Down 1.2 lbs. I could have gotten a couple more cardio type workouts in. I did get some good strength workouts in during my lunch break, but should have done a bit more cardio. We've been in a code red for heat this week and my good friends just had twins so I've been hanging with babies in my free time :) Hope by next week I'm back in the 120's!

I have reached my first goal of losing 5 lbs....now to tackle the next 10!

    Successes/struggles this week: Still need to get my water intake up, but I was very mindful when I ate this week and soooo many times (even if I went over my goal every day) I resisted temptations that I would normally give in to! I am proud of that and I hope I can keep it up. Logging EVERYTHING right away or even BEFORE it goes in my mouth really helps me be aware.
