    I weighed myself yesterday but forgot to post it.
    I'm in!

    SW: 174
    CW: 165
    GW: 145

    Sat 5/3 - 165 lbs
    Sat 5/10 - 162 lbs
    Sat 5/17 - 162 lbs
    Sat 5/24 -
    Sat 5/31 -

    Well I didn't gain but I didn't lose either.

    As suspected the miserable dental surgey I had got me this week. It's really hard for me to move around too much because those movements jar my jaw where it was cut into and makes it sore. Yesterday I walked a little over a mile for the first time since the surgery and at the end that side of my mouth was very sore.

    I am going to try again today though. I might just have to put some gauze in there and bite down slightly to put some pressure on the area and hopefully that will help.

    I'm open to suggestion if you have any.

    I got down to 139.4 and then had a jump to 140 then 141. Don't know what bothered my loss but I have been keeping to my calories. After being very strict I have slowly been trying new again foods but haven't been crazy about it. I am still happy to have lost .8 but hope to get back in the 130's by the end of May.

    Congrats everyone on the progress!

    UGH. I almost didn't post but I want to continue to hold myself accountable. Have had a really rough time lately and have been emotionally eating. I officially feel bloated and upset at myself for the gain. BUT I have been back on track since Sunday and am determined to keep trucking along. Hoping to get down to 143 by the 31st.....We shall see.

    Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!

    I have been away. My weight maintained from where I left off in April. :sick: Also I’ve been sick and on antibiotics so no workouts for me and lots of fluid retention, too. I’d like to drop 1 pound before May is over but with everything going on with my body, any progress is a welcome to my journey.

    May 19 152.4
    May 26
    May 31

    Everyone stay focused on your mini goals. If you fall off your marker, just hop right back on & don’t beat yourself up over it.
