Jan 1st: New year, fresh start! Don't expect to lose weight till the 15th though.
Jan 8th: Glad I remember what I put last week, haven't lost weight yet but purchased a fitbit this week which is actually giving me a good idea of just how sedentary I am and pushing me to exercise more at least
. Also making me realize how really close I ate to TDEE during the break. I ate ~1500 calories and my sedentary TDEE is ~1600 calories. We'll see if there is movement next week which is exactly what I'm hoping for
Jan 15th: Not quite as much as I wanted, but good nonetheless
Jan 22nd: Finally starting to see some movement.
Just for fun: My fitness resolutions for the year are <25% body fat and run a mile.0 -

I think I should probably mention this is my first month working out and eating right. I am also working out with a trainer 2X a week. It's still me doing all the work... but somehow I still feel I should be honest that I have had help in the exercise department.
Congrats to everyone for all their hard work!0 -
