I'm joining the challenge late, I hope everyone does not mind. I'd gotten serious about getting back in shape on Dec 15th, 2016. I stopped drinking Diet Mtn Dew for three months, and cut back on the potato chips, those crunchy highly processed/salted bags of immediate gratification.
Anyway, I started back on Dec 15th with the premise that life does get in the way at times. In a weekly time frame, at worst my weight is allowed to be stable, but not go up. Slow and steady weight loss is my plan. How I am eating now is how I plan to eat in the long term.

Goal weight: 175
Last week weight: 210.1
This week weight: 211.2
This week: 1.1 UP
Total weight loss: 15.2
This week's successes:
Be positive. I have a friend who logs on faceb00k almost first thing every morning these two characters: B+
I take it as a nice reminder if I am cranky, and this check in makes me cranky - just because whooshes - like last week - almost always lead to a gain the next week for me. I mean at one point this week I was down to 207.7 for *kitten* sake.
Look at this: up down up down up down. MAKES YOU CRAZY.
Oh well, still on track. Week 14, 15.2 pounds down.
Checking on last week’s challenges:
Change my shift at work. Start two hours earlier. This will be a challenge for the next month as I try to set up a new habit. Not quite a total failure. I am getting up and in earlier, but I am not making the 7:30 mark yet. It's a good thing 1) they need me and 2) this shift change is totally voluntary.
2000 stair steps - hey if I can't do 1000 let's double the goal! Kicked myself in the butt yesterday to finish this. Yay!
Log water. Did
I stated last week that I didn't know of any events coming up to make my life hectic. Therefore my daughter kindly obliged me and rear-ended someone. Everyone is OK. Other car is mostly OK, but we will take a hit on insurance as she is at fault and her car need about 3K of work. Time for the 22-year-old to get her own insurance.
How shall I challenge myself this week.- Tuesday to Friday get to work by 8:30. Let's try baby steps. (Monday is already a failure.)
- Keep making a point to log water.
- Do two fitness blender routines. Level not important.
- Walk the 2 mile street at least twice.
It is going to be a beautiful week weather wise. Highs in the mid 80's lots of sun. I hope all ya'll have a great week and keep being successful.

Starting weight: 226.4 lbs
Goal weight: 155 lbs
Current weight: 199.7 lbs
Total Weight Loss so far: 26.7 lbs
This week's success: My ankle was still sore this week, so I couldn't exercise. This meant that I had to look closely at what I was eating to stay within my calorie goal. I ended up making a few changes, and upped my water intake. Lots of positive changes have come about from my injury. It could almost be a blessing in disguise
This week's challenge: It was such a stressful time at work, and because I couldn't exercise, I found it hard to keep myself centered and calm. I really need to introduce meditation back into my daily routine.
This week's quote: "Tough times don't last. Tough people do." ~ Gregory Peck.
