    I would love to lose 50 lbs !!
    (Actually I am going to aim for 5 pounds a month as a minimum)
    I would like to track this MONTHLY

    Highest Starting weight: 258
    Challenge Starting Weight - 237.8 (15th January)
    End of Challenge Goal: 175 lbs

    Weigh-in day: 15th of each Month

    1/15 - 237.8
    2/15 - 227.8 ( -10.0 lbs)
    3/15 - 221.2 ( - 6.6 lbs)
    4/15 - Easter broke me - I had a month two months on maintenance and several false re-starts :neutral:
    5/15 - 216.2 ( -5.0 lbs)
    6/15 - 215.8 (-0.4 lbs)
    7/15 - 211.8 (-4.0 lbs)
    8/15 - 209.0 (-2.8 lbs) ** 2 weeks off on a road trip
    9/15 - 198.2 (-10.8 lbs) :sweat_smile: ... whooosed into ONDERLAND!

    Total Challenge loss : 39.6 lbs
    * (average of 4.95lbs per month) :smile:

    Goals and monthly reflections:
    January - Biggest success this month:Re-starting my weight loss journey.
    February - Biggest success this month: A good start, loosing 10 lbs
    March - Biggest success this month: Determined to continue regardless of slower progress
    April - Easter broke me - I had a month on maintenance and several false re-starts) :neutral:
    May - I think I *may* be back on track. Let's see for June. Hoping for 6 lbs off by mid June.
    June - *pat on the back* I DID actually re-start after reaching 223 at the end of May/start of June.
    July - it's slower going this time, but I am exercising more and losing inches
    August - 1 had 2 weeks at the start of Aug off, but I am straight back onto it. Still focused!
    September - wow, what a month, I was hoping for onederland, when all of a sudden it arrived!

    My personal challenges looking forward: sticking with it. Logging everyday. Working harder to stay within allowances. Being "okay" with the numbers on a standstill for a bit. Focus on the big picture. Cook at home is far more successful but I am a social eater :neutral:

    My current plan --> 20 lb increments to 175 then re-adjust goals to suit

    Major Goals: 235-->215-->195-->175
    (clothes shopping @each of these)

    215 ✅ - time to change out the wardrobe a bit June 2018

    mini-goals and rewards:
    Next "mini-goal" - 210 lbs ✅ = fresh flowers for the dining table. July 2018
    Next "mini-goal" - 205 lbs ✅ = pedicure and foot massage August 2018
    Next "min-goal" - 200 lbs ✅ = afternoon tea with friends. September 2018

    Next goal is a major-goal (this means clothes shopping!), @195 lbs.

    :star:195 - "overweight" (and wardrobe change) *hoping for October 2018

    175 - wardrobe change! (and time for a trip to the beach)
    ====

    Next stage of goals: 160 - > 150 -> 140 --> (GW)

    SW 12/28/2017: 177.6 #
    Goal weight: 125 #
    Last week (9/7): 150.2#
    Current weight (9/15):   149.4#
    Total Lost: 28.6 #
    This week: 0.8 #

    Successes: I have done the work consistently despite a tighter schedule. I'm doing yoga most mornings, challenging strength workouts 2x / week and some endurance cardio sessions including intervals and distance. My body feels alive and happy tired every day.

    Struggles: My husband is getting more healed every day; however, I'm still driving him to and from work each day. It just changed the time,  place & type of workouts available to me.

    Challenge Starting weight: 88.1kg (194.2)
    Goal weight: 65-75kg (143-165)

    This week weight:
    Over the past 6 weeks my weight has sat around 80-83kg (176-182), after reaching a all time low of 77.9kg (171.7). I have been actively trying to gain some muscle. But have just stated training for 15km run event so should start seeing more fat loss. I still have not been logging food as still waiting for new mobile.
    Current weight: 81kg (178.5)
    Challenge Weight loss: -8.1kg (17.8lb)
    Weight loss from heaviest: -24kg (52.9lb)

    Past weeks successes:
    Been focused on training with clear goals
    I have been sleeping better

    Past weeks difficulties:
    I have continue to binge eat, particularly after training. I need to come up with a plan to combat this.

    This weeks goals:
    Hopefully new mobile arrives and can start logging again
    Start 15km training
    Stop snacking and binging.

    P.S Photo change time. The medal is for winning the 8 week transformation challenge at the gym.

    <Struggle): Since increasing frequently of weight training and lifting heavier weights, I'm feeling increased upper back pain.
    >Success): I plan to do a week of bodyweight only strength workout to give my back a rest.

    >Success): I am doing my planned workouts around the changes & working on alternative options.

    This week's successes: None. Football, birthday and anniversary celebrations then add the continued disruption of house renovation meant all the discipline went out the window.

    2017 Challenge lost 30 pounds!

    2018 Challenge:

    Total loss this year: 0

    No change again. I have maintained basically the same weight +/- a couple of pounds for the past year. I guess maybe I'm not going to lose that last 10 vanity pounds. I'm happy with where I am, I just don't like giving up.

    Also it was the 52nd week :love: Since I took weight loss seriously and made changes and turn my life around. :blush:

    I lost total of 55 lbs. In 52 Weeks :sunglasses:

    This wasn't easy. This didn't come to me naturally. I had to work hard. I struggled. In past I too made many mistakes. And This time I used those mistakes and experiences as tool to Succeed.
    After some time many of us lose that "drive" or "fire". It gets difficult to stay motivated , stay focused.
    So here, the Real secret is Determination and Passion. It's the Key !!! Without Focus, Motivation, And Determination we can't achieve anything.
