    Start Weight: 138.4 lbs
    Challenge Goal Weight: 130.0 lbs
    Weigh-in #1: 138.4 lbs
    Weigh-in #2: 134.8 lbs

    A positive thought I had this week was: this loss wasn’t water weight (maybe some of the holiday stuff falling off)

    A healthy snack I chose this week was: carrots and hummus

    My most effective workout this week was: my lifting workout on Wednesday. I was able to focus and add in band work.

    I was only able to lift once last week. This week I’m going to try and get to it at least twice but hopefully 3x. I want to go running twice this week as well. I am still loving Bikini Body Mommy and how it makes me feel. Oh and I’ve given myself permission to indulge in ONE “treat” a day to curb my sweet tooth obsession. I’m hoping to at least maintain this week. That’s me being humble.

    Your soup does sound lovely. Could you share the recipe, please? Thanks!

    https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/spinach-sweet-potato-lentil-dhal

    Hi, this should be the link to the recipe. I used olive oil and substituted yellow split peas for the red lentils. I cooked the split peas for about 30 mins before I added them to the other ingredients as they take longer to cook than red lentils. I eat it as a stew (casserole) but you could add extra liquid and have it as a soup - either blended or chunky. Hope to enjoy it! Any problems with the link let me know and il type it out (lazy!!).

    Start Weight: 197
    Challenge Goal Weight:
    Weigh-in #1: 194.2
    Weigh-in #2: 193.2

    A positive thought I had this week was: I've done this before, and I can do it again. I can't rely on anyone, no one can help me, I have to do this for myself, and I can do it.
    A healthy snack/meal I chose this week was: I usually eat pretty well, so I'm happy that I've stuck through two weeks of a very clean, straight diet...no cheating! I did find a new yogurt replacement...Elli Quark! It's like yogurt, but it's cheese, and it's delicious. I still love yogurt (Greek), but it's a nice change.
    My most effective workout this week was: Spin class! I also started weight training again, so hopefully I'll start seeing some of those effects soon.

    Comments: I went to one yoga class last week, which is great. I need to start planning that back into my schedule more regularly. So that's the goal for next week! Add at least one yoga class for stretching and calming the mind.

    Start Weight: 80.4kg
    Challenge Goal Weight: 75kg
    Weigh-in #1: 80kg
    Weigh-in #2: 80.6 Kg - new scales

    A positive thought I had this week was: it’s a number, nothing more or less - third set of scales and these measured everything.

    A healthy snack I chose this week was: 10 cashew nuts - enough to keep me going

    My most effective workout this week was: yoga - I think I’ve actually had a bug or something, it have religiously done 30 mins yoga every day apart from yesterday ( flight home and essay deadline)
