    Comment for the week:
    Unfortunately, I had a terriable past week. On Monday night, (only 2 hours of sleep) I woke up to severe chest pains and left leg pulsing. After visiting the ER, sleepless nights, and follow-up appointments, I am happy to say my heart is fine. :) Still have future appointments for the "just in case", but my chest no longer feel pain and leg is back to normal. Hopefully I will have a better week and many more.

    Challenge Start Weight: 138.9 lbs
    Challenge Goal: 133.0 lbs

    Week 1: 139.6 lbs

    Aye Yi Yi!!! Look at that climb and to tell y’all a secret on 2/1 (Fri) I was over 140. Nooooooo. So needless to say I’ve regrouped. I kinda sorta realized I may need to take my cardio seriously especially if I want to actually lose poundage. My lifts happen every week....cardio, not so much. So this week I’m going to try my darnest to do cardio at minimum twice. The true goal is 3 times with Saturday being the third day. Today I added a 20 minute cardio session after my lift. We shall see how I feel tomorrow for spin class. Anyway, I’m taking up some self study on fitness terminology, specifically nutrition label reading and its relation to diet and exercise.

    I’m not going too deep with this. I just want to brush the surface. Wish me luck!

    Challenge Start Weight: 130
    Challenge Goal: 125

    Week 1: 132.2
    Week 2: 132.2
    Week 3: 132.2
    Week 4: 131.6

    A positive thought for the week: I stopped eating a snack when I realized my snack craving had been fulfilled.
    Healthy snack or meal: Oatmeal with walnuts, apples, and honey.
    Best workout this week: Trying to get my dog to jog. Lol, she won't. Took her on a very long walk before leaving her alone for a bit because she gets that separation anxiety sometimes. Working on getting her to be OK home alone.

    Comments:
    Didn't join the weigh-in last week. I've seen all sorts of numbers between then and now. 135, 137, and yesterday 131, today 133. I finally switched my calories to "lose 0.5lb/week" but now it's so low that I've basically given up on logging to "avoid failure." Gotta get back to it somehow....

    On the positive side, I went to the grocery store during the super bowl. It was so empty and beautiful!

    Week 1: 194.2

    I was 2 pounds lower than this, 5 days ago! BUT I was still sick and ate a lot of carby crap that is not my normal volume over the weekend. I know I am lower, and am holding on to some water. I don't remember who motivated me to start weighing daily (maybe @gesundundmunter), but thank you! The self awareness has been so very helpful. Anyway, I am doing GREAT this challenge and am super happy about it!

    Best workout this week: I think the snow we are having is helping with my workouts.

    I need to start walking more, I want to hit 10K steps a day.

    I forgot to post again!

    Starting Weight: 230.4
    Goal Weight: 165.0
    Challenge goal weight: 210

    1/1: 230.4
    1/8: 224.6
    1/15: 218.4
    1/22: 216.4
    1/29: 215.0
    2/5: 212.4

    Random thoughts (cause I didn’t copy the actual post. Oops!): my lowest weight for the week was 211.8. I think I might have to adjust my challenge goal as I’m creeping up on it!
    Also I started some piyo workouts this week to change it up a bit. Excited about that!
    Again sorry about the format slightly different than everyone else in the group. I’m a special snowflake. Haha.
