    When I first started MFP i was 240 lbs. I got down to 195 and now the weight is back. My FGW is 195 for now. See how I feel once I can maintain that for a year or so. Aiming for 10 lbs down this month but 5 would be just as good. 5 lbs would make me 218.6 and 10 lbs would be 213.6. This is my first month back so 10 wont be that hard to lose but 5 is my min for May.



    5/1...................223.6
    5/7...................220.9
    5/15.................218.4 Down my 5 lb goal for this month. Now aiming for 10. Come on 213.6. I can do this!!! :)

    Okay, I'm in a hurry, but I'm back up 2 lb--which was, I believe, my starting weight this month. However, I'm not the least discouraged, because I have lost at least a 1/2" in both hips and waist. I am also getting some nice muscle definition in my arms when I flex them, and I can go lower on a pushup than ever before. And full-length pushups do not scare me anymore. So I'm content.

    End of Month:

    Weight lost this month: 6 lbs
    Total lost overall: 11.6 lbs

    Just for fun: No events right now really. But I am going to try to walk 5 days a week for the first two weeks and then progress onto jogging for part of my daily walks for the last two weeks of May! Right now I hardly have any stamina and become winded easily. It will be challenging to do it but I'm going to try!

    Woot! Feeling good. Already hit my 5 lbs down for this month and exceeded it. Can barely wait to hit the 15 lbs down mark!

    Recording early this week because I had a loss and I know I'm going to forget to write it down Friday. Super busy in May and looking forward to the school year ending June 1st. I know the stress is part of the weight loss but I'm still eating as much as I can so I think I'm doing alright, just so tired recently....
