    Weigh-In Wed/Goals:

    Starting MFP: 180
    Starting SAHMU: 180
    Week 1: 180
    Goal: 140 (long term goal)

    Did my squats. Will be cleaning house and hitting the elliptical for 45min later today.

    Emotional goal: I have been holding onto this weight out of fear. Afraid that I will not accomplish my goals, afraid that I cannot be stronger than food.

    Weigh in Wednesday

    Starting my Journey: 244.8
    Starting SAHMU: 233.8
    Week 1: 228.2
    Weight loss so far: 16.2lbs (yay!)
    Goal: 165 (long term)

    Hi ladies, I decided to add my weight loss so far just because it incourages me. I can't believe I lost 5.6lbs this week, I think all of you have inspired me to do so much better! Thank you!

    Weigh in Wednesday

    Starting Weight: 261
    Starting MFP: 255
    Starting: SAHMU: 242.5
    Week 1: 241
    Total Weight loss: 20lbs
    Goal: approx 185 (around this point is hen my BMI will shift from "obese" to "overweight" , then I'll reassess)

    Emotional - I have carried extra weight due to low self confidence. Which is ironic because peole always tell me how confident and outgoing I am but really I'm super insecure. The weight became a shield that I hid behind, food the comfort when I was low. Now that I've started losing, I feel in some ways more confident because of the success I'm having, and in other ways even worse because I am super aware of my body right now an how big it still is. Siting on the bus this morning a petite woman sat next to me and I felt like an elephant beside her. Sigh... these are the feeligns I am hoping to lose along with the weight.

    What is the difference between Starting SAHMU weight and Week 1? I know I have lost 2 pounds since last Tuesday (when I started MFP).

    I liked that it had the models to show where on the scale of underweight to overweight you'd fall. Also I love the fact that they show how "off" the BMI scale can be. I'm ore interested in getting my body fat % where I want it then being at a certain weight.

    I started SAHMU when I starting MFP so the starting SAHMU weight will be when you signed up for it. Next week it will be easier to follow but this week is a little different because everyone signed up at different times so there may be no difference in Starting SAHMU weight and week 1 weight.
