    This sounds great!

    Last week:

    Weight: -1.4 lbs
    To Goal: 8.6 lbs
    Strengths: Tracked calories every day even when I knew I was going to blow my totals :)
    Weaknesses: Gave in to a craving for a Wendy's spicy chicken sandwich on a day I didn't have the calories to spare.
    Goals: Yoga twice this week, cardio every other day, keep tracking calories

    Weighing in a little early this week because Friday is going to be crazy...

    Weight: 241.6, -2.6 lbs
    To Goal: 6 lbs
    Strengths: Went to Nia class on Monday, got on the treadmill on Tuesday, tracked calories every day.
    Weaknesses: Didn't get up and go to my early AM yoga class on Saturday.
    Goals: Yoga on Thursday and Saturday, cardio on Friday, keep tracking calories, drink at least 10 glasses of water per day.

    Weight: 241.0. -.6 lbs

    To Goal: 5.4 lbs

    Strengths: Logged calories every day. Made mostly good food choices and allowed some small indulgences.

    Weaknesses: My cycle started this week, which sapped my motivation. Did not make yoga class at all, and did not use the treadmill either. Did some emotional/period induced snacking. Actually weighed in at 242.4 after a weekend retreat, but was able to get back down to 241 by week's end.

    Goals: Do treadmill tonight to end week on a high note. Continue tracking calories. Do cardio at least three times this week. Drink 10 glasses of water per day. Not let this past week's difficulties derail me :).

    I'm promising myself a massage when I get this first 10 lbs off!

    Posting early since I'm busy tomorrow..

    Current Weight: 239.6, -1.4lbs

    To Goal: 4lbs

    Strengths: Logged calories every day. Mostly stayed under my calorie count -- any overages were small. Ate more vegetables this week and drank veggie juice with my breakfast to get in an extra serving.

    Weaknesses: Fell down on the workout front -- no structured exercise this week at all, though I was active in my job and in doing housecleaning, etc.

    Goals: Cardio at least three days, Nia or Yoga at least once this coming week. Continue to log calories. Continue to weigh daily to see what causes fluctuations (I notice that the day after a sodium-heavy meal, I'm a pound or so heavier, then back to previous weight the next day). Continue to choose fruits and vegetables for snacks.

    Strengths: Overcame a gain (actually started the week at 241.8, for unknown reasons). Tracked calories every day. Worked out three times this week. Continued to choose mostly healthy food options. Drank more water. Stayed positive even when the scale numbers jumped up.

    Weaknesses: Didn't work out every day as I had planned. Bluebell Krazy Kookie Dough ice cream.

    Goals: Work out five days this week. Try the elliptical. Watch my sodium and fat macros more carefully, especially the sodium. Continue to choose more fruits and veggies.
