    Starting weight 1/6/18: 221.1
    Goal weight:175
    Total weight lost: 0.2 lbs.


    1/6--221.1
    1/13--221.3
    1/20--220.2
    1/27--220.9
    1/31--218.9 (early weigh in...going out of town for the next 3 days and won't have access to scale)

    2/10/18--220.2
    2/17/18--220.9
    2/24/18--220.9

    Weight loss is such a mental game. It's hard to stay focussed when you are doing what you are supposed to do but the scale doesn't reflect all the work you've put in even though you know that the scale lies. :/

    Previous week's successes: Finished W8D1 and W8D2 of C25k.
    Previous week's challenges: Getting my water in.

    This week's successes: Finally got off antibiotics! My weight trend is 257, however my actual weight today was 254.4 so I'm really happy! I've also been sleeping a lot better and work stress has been minimized.

    This week's challenges: Had to get some more tooth work done, so I went over my calories a couple days eating softer stuff (I never knew that stuffing had so many calories! haha). I also did not feel like working out yesterday at all because of the dental visit, but I'm feeling much better today so hopefully I can stick to my plan over the next couple weeks before I go back to the dentist.

    Finished the icey trail 10k with my husband :) !
    It was fun & I didn't fall! Quite the adventure for a girl from south Texas.
    One part of the trail was litterally one person lane right next to a bunch of uber cold water. One runner took the plunge; took it in stride & kept running.
    My motivation is about being able to participate in events and races like this one. To be fit; not held back from the adventures of life.

    Weighed in 2 days early since I'm leaving for vacation and cruise in about 8 hours. The past few cruises I've been on I have gained about 5 lbs each and didn't lose.........this one my goal is to hold maintenance and not record weight until next Monday to allow a day or two for bloat to go away.

    Total weight lost: 14.6

    Ultimate GW 160-165

    WK 8 WL (1.8)
    YTD WL (10.8)

    Week’s challenge: work, work, work. It’s hard to find a work life balance during this time of year. Need to get more de-stressing time in.

    Week’s success: exercised after work 5/6 days, logged food everyday, weighed everyday. Staying right in the maintenance range I want to be in until mid April.
