    Starting weight: 292
    Goal weight: 240
    Current weight: 290.2
    Total weight lost: 1.8

    This week's successes: Back to logging everything. Cut sugary things. Started a very simple body weight circuit to get the joints used to work.
    This week's challenges: started getting sick at the end of the week. Work through it. Maintain average 30+/day of walking. Eat a vegetable (sadly, not exaggerating).

    I’m going to try a postnatal core yoga routine I found, because I am a 53yo dude with diastsis recti and fear any core work done “wrong” will just make it worse. I may need to work with a PT or a trainer. Anyone experience success with this kind of thing?

    1/1 - 292

    Oh I'm a bit late, but I'm in for the challenge. I lost 70 pounds last year, so maybe I can make up for the first two missed weeks. Believe I'll check in on Mondays :)

    My stats and goals for this challenge:

    Starting Weight: 242
    Goal Weight: 190
    Current Weight: 242
    1-15:
    1-22:

    2-18:
    2-25:
    3-4:
    3-11:
    3-18:
    3-25:

    This week's successes: I made it to the gym three times so far, and intend to go this Saturday as well. I took a pass on some extra treats early this week, even though I had the calories to support them, because I gained a few Christmas pounds and I have to pay the piper.

    This week's challenges: Keep water intake up, No late night snacking, Stretch every night.
