SW 9/4 143

My September challenge was to try and stay in my calories every day. So far, I have had mostly good days.
September SW 217
September GW 205
Currant Weight 210.8
I didn't expect to lose so much my first week doing the challenge, but I did so I had to lower my September goal weight. I don't expect such huge losses to continue and that is why I put my end goal weight at 205. I don't want to kill myself trying to go lower if my body decides to slow down the weight loss.0 -
Week One Update: I have logged on and recorded every single food I ate! Also held out and waited the full week before weighing myself, only to be disappointed with no change on the scale!! Ugh! How frustrating!! Hoping the results show through next week...0

Self Challenge: Protein good, Carbs up & down, need to get fats leveled.
*Strong allergy issues put me under the weather since last Tuesday ( 9/9). DH started feeling off, too, and we came home early from Niagara Falls. My weekend (9/13-9/15) is all about nutrition, rest, light calisthenics and stretching to gear up for a re start on Monday. Maybe I’ll make my September goal which now includes getting to the 140’s. If not, I won’t cry over spilled milk but clean it up and move forward.
