    For another challenge I weighed myself for 10 days straight to see fluctuation. Was down 139.6 last week. TOM and back where started. Not going to let it bother me and throw in towel.

    New goal .... Hopefully by next week back to starting at 140 :smiley:

    This is exactly why I am a firm believer in weighing daily and watching the trends, rather than weighing only once a week. If I weighed last week on a "low" day, and this week on a "high" day, I would be SO discouraged by what appears as no progress, or possibly even a gain. But if I weigh daily, then I can get comfortable with the normal fluctuations and not freak out over what may just be a little water retention.

    I have to cut out this sweet tooth and let go of processed food. Too know what's keeping me back and to keep doing it, I know I'm insane! Let's do this ladies.


    Starting Weight, Sep 11: 161 (seeing that I'd gotten over 160 this morning prompted me to log back in here. I haven't tracked since 2015.)
    Current Weight: 161
    Goal Weight: 145 by Christmas.

    Candy and Thanksgiving between now and then.

    This week is really about counting and switching everything to water and no cal options. I always feel like the water switch is a "free" 5lbs. [/quote]

    Started Keto today. I am recovering from hip surgery (3 weeks post op), so I am very sedentary which is extremely difficult for this runner. I need to lose this weight by diet alone, so I'm going to work hard!

    1 week later and the scale hasn't budged from 125lbs - but I am almost certain I am holding onto a lot of water weight since I had a buffalo chicken mac and cheese yesterday for lunch that sent me over my Sodium limit by over 1,000!!! Here's to the next week!

    I haven't lost any weight this week confirming that I haven't been honest enough with my food logging. I'm great at exercising, I ran 3 times last week and used my TRX twice. Going to focus on food this week, need some better habits.

    150 today. I have been eating horribly and I know it. I will be better this week.
    On the bright side, workouts were good!
    Th- cardio, F-strength + cardio, Sat- strength + cardio , Sun- cardio.

    Starting Weight:152
    Current Weight:151
    Goal Weight:137

    I lost half a pound but I technically started above 152...so I am leaving it at 151. I had a great movement week. I did 2 workouts, went for a run and 15,000-20,000 steps almost everyday!!!

    This week, I want to get in 5 workouts and LOG. I broke the habit and I can't get back into it.
