I am glad that I did not go up in weight too much.

And it's been 6 days without any sugar-sweetened beverages.

Total January loss-

I’m in a good groove, no big whooshes just little steps down. I’ve been seeing a lot of 177 this last week so I’m confident that will soon be my high mark instead of my lower point.
I’m hoping this groove can carry me forward a few months but I know frustration station is always lurking. It seems once I get that perfect balance of exercise/calories/macros lol this wonderful thing happens and I lose weight and boom the balance is off and the struggle begins again to figure out how to adjust.
Great start to the 2019 Everyone, just being here and checking in. This is hard work to change a lifetime of habits.

January 1st - 181.4
January 2nd -181.1 So glad to have my new digital scale so that I feel rewarded by "good" days. I am also happy with my decision to weigh every day, it makes me mindful every night that I will be weighing in the morning and affects my choices.
January 3rd - 181.9
January 4th - 181.7
January 5th - 178.7
January 6th - 182.5 Crazy how everything fluctuates. I couldn't believe yesterday, so weighed 5 times. Up 3.8 from yesterday, but I have skating on the docket for today. Perhaps I will discover a trend in something that I am doing, eating, or something that I am not eating with how it affects me.
January 7th - 181.7
January 8th - 183.0 - really don't get the gain this time, I was in really good numbers all week.
January 9th - 182.2 - I seriously expect a really big loss soon. I am just sticking with it. I am working very long hours this week, maybe my body is holding on to it just in case.
January 10th - 179.8 - not getting too excited, I see how I can be almost 4 pounds more the next day. Still, glad to be slightly under 180 at least for today : - )
January 11th - 180.7
January 12th - 182.4 - I was less disciplined in December and still lost weight, yet this month I am being so careful and am just not dropping weight. I have to stick with it.
January 13th - 181.4
January 14th - 181.7
January 15th - 181.6
January 16th - 180.3 - I have seen the 70s twice this month already, but not getting my hopes up just yet. Skating yesterday and again today. I work out every day no matter what, but skating seems to be the difference maker. Maybe because it is so fun and relieves me of stress at the same time as torching lots of calories. 16 days of discipline to lose a 1/2 of a pound is ridiculous.
January 17th - 178.7 - Yay! 2 days of public skating makes such a difference. Wish that I could do it year round, it is the only thing that I enjoy for an entire hour.
January 18th - 178.7 - No skating, so not even .1 of a pound. I did 30 minutes of Zumba yesterday and only managed to eat 1100 calories. Public skating is 3 days per week unless I drive to a different town. Lol, thinking about that!
January 19th - 179.2
January 20th - 180.7 - lack of sleep.
January 21st - 180.7 - Up 2 pounds from the 18th. Even skated yesterday. I can't give up now though. Only 10 days until the end of the month. Hoping for a woosh. Very frustrated, not feeling like it is worth all of the effort today. Did 55 minutes of zumba. 4 days in the 70s this month, c'mon body!
January 22nd - 180.9 - luckily I have skating today. .5 of a pound is not good enough for 22 days. Plateau?

I've been all over the place this month in weight. Finally back on a downward trend, though. I just have to stay consistent and it will continue to go down. Probably won't hit my goal of 145, but I'm hoping to at least be below 146. We will see.

Bit disappointed by this week's weight loss but I sabotaged myself by eating WAY more than my daily goal 3 out 7 days. I'm a pound away from my January goal so hopefully I will reach it
