    Age: 58
    Height: 5'7"
    SW 2/10/2021 - 325.0
    CW as of 4/30/2021 – 271.4 (-53.6 lbs)

    5/07/2021 (+/- lbs) -2.0 lbs. (269.4) (-1.2 lbs weekly average)
    5/14/2021 (+/- lbs) -1.4 lbs. (268.0) (-0.1 lbs weekly average)
    5/21/2021 (+/- lbs)
    5/28/2021 (+/- lbs)

    GW for May 31st 2021 – 265 lbs (1.75 lbs/wk)

    GW for Feb 10th 2022 – 199 lbs
    UGW – 175 lbs / approx. 25% body fat (then re-evaluate)

    Weekly NSV's/Goals (4/30-5/07):
    65 oz water per day
    Increase NEAT (1 hour per day, 7 days per week)
    30 min cardio/strength building every other day (4x's per week)

    (05/14) I'm not sure how I did it but I lost 1.4 lbs this last week (my weekly average was, expectedly, considerably different and only showed a -0.1loss) – even with my Mother's Day weekend extravaganza and only 1 (out of 4) cardio/strength training 30-min sessions! I am hopeful that I will be able to reach my monthly goal weight. I have been meeting my NEAT goal though and that actually works out to an additional 7 hours of activity per week that I am not logging. It's making a difference. I definitely still want to get back on track with my 30 min cardio/strength training sessions though.
    65 oz water per day (7 out of 7)
    Increase NEAT (5 minutes increased activity every hour/12 hours per day – ie moving, stair climbing etc) (7out of 7)
    30 min cardio/strength building every other day (0 out of 4)

    @KeriA I have a fitbit too and that's the reason I haven't been using it, my wrist came out in a rash which took weeks to heal, really wish the straps weren't plastic.

    Look on Amazon - they have fabric replacement bands. Paint the back of the face (if it touches your skin) with clear nail polish to keep from skin contact!!

    It is the back of the face of the watch that was where I had my rash not the wrist band :(

    Paint the back of the face with clear nail polish, it will prevent the skin contact and should help keep a rash away. Some of the fabric bands will go behind the face so it is completely covered. You will not get a heart rate that way, I believe.
