    I am in for this challenge to hold myself accountable. I am 51 year old 6'0" with a Thyroid issue, that I am on Meds for, and tore my Achilles in May. My weight constantly yoyo's and the up is more than the down. Heaviest I have ever been.
    I have been unable to do any cardio and the weight has continued to creep up. I also have a torn Meniscus but can still get around. I decided to test the waters on the stationary bike this morning and am able to start doing that. Hopefully this will help take the weight off.
    Starting weight: 287.2 ( January 1, 2021)
    Goal weight: 195

    Current weight: 281.8
    Total weight lost: 5.6

    This week's successes: Rode on stationary bike for 20 minutes
    This week's challenges: Incorporate 3 cardio and 2 strength days each week until the end of January
