What I've learned about myself:
CELEBRATE!! This week I achieved the first goal I set for myself.
When I first looked into loosing weight I wanted to get back down to 160 lbs. This is the weight I was when I started sitting at a desk all day. This week I achieved that goal! I have since decided that I need to get to healthy weight and size and have adjusted my goals. I still feel that this week is worth celebrating. I worked so hard all week knowing how close I was to achieving it. I still went out with friends and family but I said no more often and worked hard to do things in moderation, boy did it pay off. Working on the next 20 lbs won't be any easier but knowing that I can do it and backed but the success I have had so far I am more determined then ever. So cheers to the next 20 lbs and the next clothes size down!7 -

What I've learned about myself :4 -
Starting Weight on 4/1/2019: 280
Current Challenge Weight: 195.6
Goal Weight: 180 (this is my ultimate goal weight from when I started my WLJ last April. It will mark a 100 lb total weight loss. These last 15 lbs will most likely be the toughest for me, but I will give it my best shot! Good luck everyone!)
W1 12/1: 195.6
W2 12/8: 193 (upped my workouts this past week, but have been eating back all my calories...apparently not enough! I'll take it though
We'll see if it holds by next week.)
W3 12/15: 191.6 (Thought for sure I would gain some back this week but reduced my salt intake and not retaining as much water now.)
W4 12/22: 192.6 (yesterday I was 190.8, but today is weigh-in for the challenge. I'm used to these wild swings. They've been happening since day one of my journey. No worries.... Merry Christmas everyone!)
W5 12/29: 192.4
W6 1/5: 189.6 (on the last day of 2019, I hit 189.8 and NORMAL WEIGHT BMI...I must have been retaining a ton of water from the holidays and even lost a little more since then, for today's weigh in. I haven't seen the 180's since 2001...Happy New Year everyone and welcome to all the new people!)
W7 1/12: 188.4
W8 1/19: 187.8 (Slow, steady, and healthy as I get closer to my ultimate goal of 180 lbs..my setting on MFP is to lose 1/2 lb per week now. I had a really good week, exercise wise. Pushed it when I didn't feel like it at the time.)
W9 1/26: 187.4 (challenge weight loss 1/2 way point, -8.2 lbs. This is actually more than I thought I would lose by this time since I am near my goal weight. Total weight loss since April 2019, -92.6 lbs.)
W10 2/2: 185.8 (Lost more than expected this week. I didn't really change anything in my daily routine. Knowing my body weight fluctuations, I'll probably be up next week. Also, I haven't been 185 lbs since 2001!.....Keep on Truckin'!)
W11 2/9: 185.4 (Still moving in the right direction and exactly how I want to ease into maintenance.)

What I've learned about myself: I've got the flu right now, so exercise has been minimal. I actually miss working out! I've reached the 10 pounds off milestone, so I'm psyched to keep going. Hope to get under 140 by the end of the challenge!4 -
Starting Weight: 240 (July 2019)
Challenge Starting Weight: 218.1 (Dec 1, 2019)
Goal Weight: 198
W1 12/1: 218.1 - Enjoyed Thanksgiving but didn't succumb to it.
W2 12/8: 217.2 - Continuing to move in the right direction.
W3 12/15: 218.1 - Yikes! I need to commit to exercising harder ... starting right now.
W4 12/22: 216 - Too lax on the holiday party eating but close to my milestone goal of 215 by EOY.
W5 12/29: 218.3 - Arrgh! Too many Bowl games, soft pretzel bites & beer. December was a write-off.
W6 1/5: 215 - A few days late to hit my 2019 year-end goal but I'll take the late win!
W7 1/12: 213.5 - Daily High Knees, Climbers & Flutter Kicks (Jan exercise challenge) and healthy eating are doing the job.
W8 1/19: 212.4 - Will need to move the needle faster to hit my goal by Apr 1 but still moving in right direction.
W9 1/26: 211.9 - I was 1.5 lbs lighter just a few days back (a little water weight maybe?)
W10 2/2: 211.2 - I was in the 209s earlier this week but need to clean up my Friday night & Saturday food choices!
W11 2/9: 209.7 - Despite a crazy calorie day yesterday (which I paid for), it was a good week!
W12 2/16: 207.6 - Good progress again but it will still take work to get down to 205 by end of Feb

I walked on my lunch break everyday, went to the gym three times over the week and ate healthy almost everyday. The weight loss this week isn't as great as I would have liked but I am doing all the right things to continue to loose successfully. Here is to another week of working out and eating well!

I'm sure some of the gain is water (and beer) weight as everything was pretty salty / spicy but I was still surprised this morning. It looks like I have some extra exercise, healthy eating and smaller portions this week to get back down.3 -
