Weight loss this week: None. I gained. My sodium intake has been too high. I need to work on that. I also need to make sure I drink more fluids.
Goal weight for challenge: I would like to lose at least 9- 10 lbs overall for this entire challenge, which would bring my weight to 151.8 or lower.
Actual weight lost for challenge: So far, I've lost 6.4 lbs, and I am at 154.4.
