    April 1st is actually my personal goal date! I'd like to lose ~30 pounds by then. It's a bit high but I just kind of want to set a higher goal to stop me from not taking it seriously.

    Started : 5'10" 194lbs
    Goal : 165

    Nov. 18: 189.6 So I'm REALLY upset with myself. And I thought absout lying and saying that I couldn't weigh today. But weight loss is not linear and I know I'll look back on this eventually and be totally over it because I'll have lost weight. The scale flashed 190.2 before changing its mind and I was really upset. I need to SMARTEN UP. This time next week the number gonna be different. Promise.

    Challenge starting weight on 10/30/17 was 207.5

    My weight has been all over - up to 209 and this morning 207. I need to get it in gear. My biggest obstacle is stress eating. Even with Thanksgiving Day I’m striving for a better week.
    April Fool’s goal: 167.5

    Good luck everyone!

    Nov. 18: 189.6 So I'm REALLY upset with myself. And I thought absout lying and saying that I couldn't weigh today. But weight loss is not linear and I know I'll look back on this eventually and be totally over it because I'll have lost weight. The scale flashed 190.2 before changing its mind and I was really upset. I need to SMARTEN UP. This time next week the number gonna be different. Promise.
    Nov. 25: 189.2 This past week is did better. I even saw 188.4 before yucky TOM hit and made me feel all bloated and nasty. At least this is still technically an improvement on last week. I'm feel more in control now which is good. The closer Christmas gets the more I realize that my mini goal of 184 is not realistic. So I've changed it to 187.0. Maybe I'll be able to see 186.0 by New Years Day?

    Joining this challenge late. I turn 40 on April 5th and it will be the best birthday gift to myself if I'm happy with what I see in the mirror and how I feel.
