Dec 1: 190.6 (apparently I’ve discovered maintenance. That or the weight lifting is making me retain water)
Dec 8: 189.0 (weighed 12/12- forgot to weigh the 8th due to being sick)
Dec 15: 188.8
Dec 22: 192 ah! I’m hoping it’s because it’s my TOM and I’m retaining water. Also it may have been the sweets from my sons birthday a little bit too.
Dec 29: 187.4
Jan 5: 185.2
Jan 12: 187.0 craved everything this past week and ATE EVERYTHING this past week. I will do better this week!
Jan 19: 185.2 hard work is paying off! Who would’ve thought staying within your calories everyday would work?!
Jan 26: 182.2 happy dance happy dance!
Feb 2: 185.6
Feb 9: 186.2 I’ve been in a slum the past two weeks not counting calories and look where it’s got me. I promised myself I will NOT go back into the 190’s again and I’m getting too close for my comfort of doing that. I will start logging again today and stay the course! I am still here too, struggling, but here! I don’t think I’ll reach my goal in 8 weeks but I know I can get on the right track by then.
Feb 16: 187.4 hopefully just retaining water from TOM. I feel very bloated.
Feb 23: 185.4 yay finally a loss. Still have a loooong way to go though, but this helps my spirits.

Well everyone, this challenge has come to an end. Since late October when I started this challenge to now the end of March I have lost exactly 5 pounds. I couldn't stay motivated to stay on track most days. I had high hopes in the beginning. I know weight loss is a huge struggle for me and I'm not going to let this get me down. Bottom line I've lost weight instead of gained, even though it was a small amount. My biggest victory is staying under 190 since December 22nd. I told myself I wasn't going back into the 190's again and I've kept that promise. I've been maintaining between 182 and 187 for some time now. I know I will eventually get to where I want to be. It will just take time and more determination that what I currently have. My toddler takes a lot of my energy right now and I have put my kids, husband and new puppy above myself. I'm just glad I'm at least maintaining than putting on weight while my diet is more relaxed. I wish everyone well on their journey. To those of you losing steadily, keep rocking it!! I envy your will power. To those who are struggling, we will get there. Just NEVER GIVE UP!!
