    How's everyone doing? Staying on plan? Changing your plan?

    I'm staying on my plan - restricted calories and exercising at will. I just wish I could sleep through the night - LOL. I keep waking up 2 or 3am - for at least 2 hours.

    Starting weight - 249.5 - March 2017
    Lowest weight - 202 - December 2017
    Goal weight 183 (planned maintenance range 180-186)

    6/29/18 - 208.5 - Making a fresh start for Onederland after Independence Day.
    7/6/18 - 209.5 - A little temporary gain from the holiday carb fest. Here we go!
    7/12/18 - 210.5 - Arrggghhhh! The bad news - the scale is going the wrong way. The good news - I'm getting my workouts in - lifting numbers are going up - I'm staying under my calorie target. Next week will be better.

    Have you tried taking melatonin? I take it and and I find that I go right back to sleep after getting up in the middle of the night.

    @alteredsteve175 I take melatonin before going to sleep. I guess I could try to take more when I wake up - only one way to find out if it works, and hopefully it won't make me feel too sleepy when I get up a couple of hours later. Thanks for the idea :) And, here's to next week being better !!!!

    Height 5' 2"
    Restart weight - 150.2 lbs - July 1, 2018
    Current weight - 147.4
    Goal by December 31, 2018 (24 weeks) - 128 lbs
    Overall goal: 122 - 128 lbs

    Daily Calorie Goal: 1520
    Weekly Calorie Avg: 1500

    I'll have to begin my exercise routine before I expect to begin steady loss. That will have to wait until August 1st.
    Until then, not expecting to be able to post. My goal is to not to have gained during my absence. Monitoring exact caloric in-take isn't practical so I won't even try to record it. Will continue my awareness and I expect to do a reasonable amount of walking.

    You've come a long ways! Keep it up! Keep posting here if the accountability is helpful. Post each day if that helps! When you get discouraged, look how far you've come and how very close you are to crossing into a big line!

    We can do this!

    Starting weight - 281.4 (April 2017)
    Current weight - 206.2
    Loss since 7/1 - 1.4
    Goal weight by end of 2018 - 181.4

    Down 1.4 this week, though I weighed myself this morning and was back up to 207.6 so we're going with Sunday's number. I've been bouncing between 206-208 for months and I'm getting desperate. I'm hoping I can stay consistent for the next few weeks and not get discouraged. My goals for the week are to work out 4x (cardio and strength) and up my water intake at work.

    Allison, any chance your mattress might be part of the problem?

    Good job staying on plan! Thanks for encouraging through inquiry.
