@HASWLRS Thanks for the support these past few days of me posting!
@GrandmaJackie Thanks for your positivity the other day!
@mikea2g Congratulations on your losses over these last few months! Although Ive been in and out of MFP, when I jump back in it is always cool to see your progress. Hope that knee gets better soon.
Everyone else: Keep up the good work!
Although calories were under, I binged on chocolate a little today. Im really trying to have a healthy relationship with food and eating chocolate (and more of it then I originally wanted) didn't make me feel all that great. Tomorrow is a new day though!3 -
Today weighed in at 294.6
A gain, but I made some wise choices for this week and hoping to lose next week!2 -

This is my first weigh in Saturday
Weight: 267
It’s a struggle, for now I’m losing it, but I hope it will change2 -
Week one
Last weeks weight: 130
Today's weight: 129.4
So here's my story- last week I was away with my boyfriend's family when I signed up. I had no access to a scale, so I guessed my starting weight as 130. I thought I was estimating high but was devastated when I got back home and realized I actually weighed 133.5lbs. I'm sure all the eating out and drinking didn't help (combined with PMS). But being that I was 120lbs at the beginning of November, it felt like such a disappointment.
My goal was 128 for this week. I didn't hit it but, since my starting weight was more than I initially thought, I'm not upset about missing my goal.
This week I stuck to my diet extremely consistently with the exception of one chocolate chip cookie and wine on NYE. I did cardio 4x this week to ease myself back into the gym.
This upcoming week, I plan to continue sticking to my diet (for me it's the component that makes the biggest difference). I also plan to continue with 4x/week cardio, a couple strength workouts, and daily morning abs. My goal for next weigh in is 126lbs... After tonight's "cheat meal" of homemade pizza of course🤤🍕
Wish me luck!! I'm feeling good about this.
PS: Reading all of your posts has been incredibly motivating!! Please keep it up ☺️👏3 -

Thanks @mickey10111 !
I keep my progress numbers visible so I can continually see what I’ve accomplished so far. It gets so easy for me to be lost in the moment and feel like no progress is being made.
The knee will inevitably heal. I just decided running was something I was ready for. I was wrong. Walking, elliptical and bike are all awesome cardio options still!
The struggle is real when it comes to chocolate (and plenty of other foods). I have a chocolate protein powder that sort of scratches the chocolate itch. It’s sweetened with stevia. For me, yummy

Sorry I am so late with my weigh in. I should have done it earlier, it was a bad week for exercise, tracking & calories!
This weeks weight- 210 (up 2 pounds from last week) 😞1 -
Mini challenge 1/4:
Tracking - yes
Under - no
Exercise - no
Even though I’m not doing great at staying under by calories each day, just the idea of tracking every day is an improvement for me. It really makes me think about the actual reasons that I go over and what I can do to stop doing it.
Back to the gym and plans to stay under calorie budget next week. Looking forward to Mini Challenge Week 2

I started out ok. My day got out of routine on Thursday and I struggled to get back into it. I am going to keep trying to make exercise and calorie tracking an everyday habit. My soda consumption went way down this week, as well as random snacking.
