    Hi I would like to join. My name is Nicole and for the past year i conveniently forgot that this community existed as well as forgetting my bathroom scales. Thus i have successfully put back on the weight that i lost over a year ago. My big downfall in life are carbs, carbs and more carbs. I would like to start with a month challenge to get back into the routine of recording what i shove in my mouth each day. And also to remember where i put my bathroom scales. Note to myself that if i don't weigh myself doesn't mean that i haven't put on any weight!!!
    Starting weight 79.2kg/174.6lbs
    Goal weight Sept. 77 kg / 169.76lbs

    10/8 - 77.8kg / 171.5lbs

    biggest change this week is that i refused beer. My husband and i normally have a knock off beer after work. So i would say a bit of the loss is from water weight. Well here goes another week. Just need to keep logging my food as that what is keeping me in check.

    Hopefully next week I can actually get out and walk. It's been so hot that it's a sauna out there.

    Everyone is progressing so well. Small steps. We all have different obstacles placed in our paths and we manage to keep on track. Bless our human spirit. To date <3.4#.

    I was so happy that a heart icon showed up in my post. When I was posting a -3.4# to date loss. Just shows us that certain messages appear unintentionally.

    I had a great week. Went camping over the weekend and had more carbs and a couple drinks around the fire. Did give up the Diet Pepsi this week after reading this thread.

    My goal this week is to up my water intake. I need to get to where I crave it again.

    Have a great week!

    NSV: I'm now wearing a belt that didn't fit a month ago.
    Reward: Bought my first two (ever) pairs of designated "running" shorts. 95% of my exercise time is spent running or walking, so it just makes sense.

    Not sure I will lose 5 lbs, but I have been working very hard to stay on track no matter what. I have been on a plateau for a while.
