MY CHALLENGE GOAL: lose 30 pounds by July 30th (17 weeks)
highest weight: 330 (7/10/2020)
challenge starting weight: 264.0
challenge goal weight: 234.0
ultimate goal weight: 210-220 (whatever gets me down to 20% body fat)
Mar 31 : 264.0 (starting weight)
Apr 02 : 261.9 : lost 2.1, total loss = 2.1
Apr 09 : 261.2 : lost 0.7, total loss = 2.8
Apr 16 : 265.3 : gained 4.1, total loss = -1.3

Goal : 234.0 : desired loss = 30.0
Actual :
(This weight gain is a mystery to me. I was hospitalized Monday until yesterday, during which time my diet went from "no food or drink" Monday evening, to "clear liquid" Wednesday noon, to "full liquid" Thursday morning. I had negligible activity during this time, but still, I'm surprised that I would gain 4 pounds eating so little. I am back now, and hopefully my weight will get back on track soon.)8 -
SW 183.4
4/8 180.8
4/16 179.4
Smaller loss but I'm never going to be mad at nearly a pound and a half loss and I'm so much happier about the choices I made this week. I realy cleaned up my sugar indulgences this week. I wasn't as active as I wanted to be thanks to work but I have a super active weekend planned. A 12 mile hike on Sunday. I could die. It was nice to have met you all. Feeling much happier with myself, ordered bigger shorts, hopefully it ends up being a complete waste of money.8 -
April 2nd 170
April 9th 171
But I'm walked 10,000 steps 5 days and did 2 weights workouts so I'm ignoring the gain
April 16th 169
As a side note, years ago I put 170 down as my goal weight as the 150 I need for a healthy bmi seemed unattainable.

Sorry to hear you were ill! As you know, that gain could be anything related to fluids and a significant change to routine due to the hospitalization, and highly unlikely to actually be related to your body mass. Focus on taking care of yourself and perhaps you will see a big drop next week as your body heals and regulates!7

Sorry you were hospitalized. Maybe your gain is due to medicine and fluid retention. Hope you are feeling much better!5 -
It’s been a very stressful week at work plus closing on buying a new house. Struggled a bit to stick to my meal plan but fortunately I have a freezer full of batch cooked portioned meals which definitely helped when I had no motivation to cook.
