@lovesretirement

An excellent week. Meetings with tons of sweets including fudge did not deter me. I could have done a bit better on exercise and am still not getting enough sleep but working on both to improve. Moving toward my next mini-goal of 240. Plan to be there in the next week or two.2 -

This week's successes: Following up on last week after being let go from my job (of 14 years) due to 'restructuring' and adjusting my calorie goal to a half pound.. all I have to say for successes is that I managed to exercise this week. The job search is a full time job.
This week's challenges: Counting calories now that I have adjusted my goal, it is more important that I stick to the weighing and measuring because my margin for error is much smaller. I am pretty sure I am at the level set place now where I should start to see the numbers move downward again, more slowly, but ever downward! (I hope!)

This week's successes: I had a calorie deficit of about 6700 for the week so I'm happy about the 1.8lbs loss. I think my body has also, finally, recovered from the antibiotics fiasco. I'm still getting a ride to/from work for now and we've decided that once the weather is nicer I'll start taking the bus home, which won't be as hard as taking it to/from work so yay!
This week's challenges: I was finally getting back into a normal exercise routine after my leg injury, but I had to get my nexplanon taken out yesterday, so now my arm is sore and I have to "take it easy" for the next week. I'll be so grateful once my body is back to normal.1/6/18: 263.8
