Husband generally likes to eat rubbish, and I cave. Pictures at the weekend and a meal out at Bella Italia. Sunday lunch at my parents and peer pressure at work for junk food/ canteen food.
Most importantly making myself move more.4 -

Successes/struggles this week: Successes-Made the 10# weight loss goal for January a day later when I weighted myself this morning. I've been trying to get my challenges done at home, I missed this morning so I will get them done tonight after work. Been trying new recipes for food prepping and they've been good successes to keep my on track. Struggles-have not been getting to the gym in the early morning like I need to. But I am getting up earlier to make it happen so I'm getting there. Water intake-I seem to be always a few cups shy of my 1-gal per day goal.3 -

-I've been dealing with the same type of events on my calendar too...I'm arranging my day's food plan to allow for the 'cheat'...eating lean earlier in the day and getting lots of water in before the event. I've made myself a deal, if I have a cocktail-glass of wine, beer, etc...I have a full 24-ounce glass of water with it. I find that I'm drinking less but still enjoying with others. And with the extra water intake, I'm finding that I do enjoy the snacks and party food but I don't eat as much. It's really helping. Plus I use smaller plates, keeps me on track.

Successes/struggles this week: Just getting back into the swing of things as I haven't logged on in a year! I managed to gain 25 lbs back from losing close to 100 in 2014-2015.
My struggles will be cutting out carbs and caffeine.2 -
I'm hoping we check in often, cuz I need accountability BADLY! How does this work? Can we chat daily?

I have improved in the fitness area, increased level of difficulty. A challenge this week coming is a visit to a friend who eats non stop, usually late at night and not healthy. I need to try to stay focused and true to my goals. Nice to meet all of you!

Struggles this week: just starting my weight loss journey (again) yesterday , so I am in the beginning stages. So I find that I still have my cravings and I want to fall into habits of snacking. I know by this time next week, I will be a little bit stronger!1 -
Seems like several on this challenge like me are starting over after being away from healthier eating. Good luck to all in this month's challenge!2

Successes/struggles this week:
I am quite disappointed with the scale as I worked very hard this week, felt in my body that I was losing. I had a big success when visiting a friend and did not partake in the junk food and when out at a gourmet burger joint, only had a veggie burger no bun with steamed broccoli no fries. I feel very frustrated
Hope everyone had a good week and motivating thoughts to all of you for this week!
