    Original starting weight - 158.5 (12/30/2018)
    May ending weight 149.6 (May loss 2.7 lbs)
    June starting weight - 149.6
    June goal -144.6
    Ultimate goal - 135.0

    Adjusting check-in dates to use my regular Friday weigh-ins (pins) for my personal tracking. Checking in between weigh-ins helped keep me focused, will keep that up in June.

    📌 1st - 149.6 (Trend Weight 150.3)
    2nd - 149.3 (Trend Weight 150.2)
    4th - 149.8 (Trend Weight 150.1)
    📌 7th - 151.6 (Trend Weight 150.4)
    ⏩ 10th - 150.4 😏
    11th - 149.6 (Trend Weight 150.4)
    📌 14th - 149.0 (Trend Weight 150.1)

    Today's Thoughts: Am I the only one who regularly hits "DONE" in the MFP app after writing a post instead of scrolling down and tapping "POST REPLY" ??? You'd think I'd learn.

    I'm doing ok. The exercise is down, but I'm not slugging. I spent a day and a half in the city with friends doing a good bit of walking (while the FitBit was on the charger). And, I'm knocking out a bunch of things around the house that keep me moving. Early morning weight is picking up a late snack. I usually don't eat after 8pm, but woke up at midnight hungry and fixed something light - I'm surprised it's not actually up a tick higher.I'll take it. Will likely not hit the June goal, but I'm ok with the slow and steady loss.

    June Game Plan & Goals:
    • Continue weekly meal planning
    • Log daily in MFP - focus on daily calorie deficit goal of 500 This is very reasonable for me
    • No calorie intake after 8pm
    • Hit Fitbit step goal of 5000, then increase to 6000 - 7 day average 4626
    • Hit active minutes goal of 25 minutes daily, then increase to 30 - 7 day average 8
    • Hit strength building exercise goal of 6 days, then increase to 7 - 7 day average 0

    @mari_moulin Maintenance is very hard. Just keep adjusting your calories, carbs & macros. You'll figure it out. It is good that you are staying on top of it & mfp really helps with that, as does all these challenges. You got this girl!

    TMI Question: When did your breasts get smaller?

    Background: I've been exercising at the gym for almost 7 months. Slow results and I'm very happy. I had to buy a new bra (a sister size with a smaller band). Usual gym routine includes 15 minute warm-up, 20 min body-weight strength exercises, and 20 mins cardio on the elliptical. Since joining the gym, I have lost 9 lbs.

    Now, putting aside my question, I had a large dinner last night. I did not need two servings of chicken alfredo and toast lol. It was delicious and I'm glad that I dropped .2 lbs this week.

    The next week will be tough since I will be at home for a stay-cation.

    MFP Starting Weight: 140 lbs - February 2011
    Current Starting Weight: 147 lbs - November 2017

    Yes, stay on top of it. You have come too far and worked so hard. It is most definitely a lifestyle change and some experimenting.
    You are working out and tracking and posting, these are positive life choices.
    Some people stay at 1200 calories forever (Princess Kate, 5'11"). Of course that doesn't mean that we all need to, because we are all different.
    Definitely you want to nip it in the bud quickly.
    Sorry that you feel defeated today. It is so not easy! You've got this girl.
