    Successes / struggles this week:

    So I weighted myself Monday the first at the hospital n was 199lbs. Monday m Tuesday I stayed at hospital with my newborn n was unable to eat clean n workout. So I technically started on Wednesday the 3rd of May. Nonetheless I weighted in on Monday 5/8/17 at the gym n was 199.

    I am going to keep at it n buy a scale though I am disappointed n discouraged cuz I expected some loss

    Weight -/+ this week: -2.4 lbs
    Weight -/+ this month: -5.0 lbs

    Successes / struggles this week: Despite being sick this week, still kept up with my C25K workouts. It's also that TOM, so really wasn't expecting much on the weight loss front so I am pleasantly surprised. This is as low as I got last year while losing before I stopped actively trying due to getting pregnant and then miscarrying. So I haven't been lower than this in years; can't wait to see 190. Hopefully I'm finally on the downward trend again!

    Successes / struggles this week:
    This week I graduated with my ADN, there was a lot of chaos and loose ends, I felt too tired and too distracted to eat well and exercise. I have turbo fire, I got it a while ago, and now that schools over I'm gonna attempt to do that. In combination with eating well, I'm hoping to see my weight drop or at least my size. Good luck this week everyone
