    This challenge is really working for me! I know that I’m going to be accountable so I’m sticking to my calories and not going over as usual.

    May 10: 161.8 - not a huge loss, but glad I was able to lose at all. I had a pretty full weekend of calories and it took some extra time to get that weight back down.
    May 17: 161.4 - not much loss again, but I've been sick this whole week. Slept most of the time so wasn't as active as normal. Hoping to start next week off healthy.
    May 24: 160.8 - slowly but surely... Almost to the 150s!!! That's my goal for next week 😁
