    1st August: 198.25lbs
    8th August: 199.25lbs

    Gained 1lb last week, but looking back over my food diary I ate a LOT of pasta and we had takeaway curry and ice cream, so kinda makes sense. Don't think I was accurately counting calories. Not too dissapointed because this is a life change, not a quick fix and needs to be sustainable.

    The TDEE - 20% rule seems to be a lot of calories for me to eat each day and frightens me, so I lowered it to 1600 - but even still I am scared when I go above 1500. Might recalculate it and see what it comes out with.

    Now I am at the halfway mark! 25lb down! I lost 1.2lb this week and it just shows that I lose more with good exercise. I didn't exercise again this week so I am going to do it next week! I need to stop slacking so I can make it too my goal!

    Way to go, ladies! I completely forgot to weigh myself this morning. Will do it tomorrow instead.

    No loss, but considering I ate out almost every day and didn't have a lot of time (or energy) to exercise this week, I'm just glad I didn't gain!

    No movement on the scale this week, which isn't surprising. I've had a couple of dodgy, non-logged food days and menstrual-related lethargy that led to less exercising and probably some water weight as well.

    I end August with a gain of .2 lb. Starting September with motivation. This happened another week when I had high milage, maybe it's not the calorie load, but the type of exercise. I will try to add in formal exercise (intervals) 2-4 times a week again. Also having trouble with my fitbit and MFP syncing. I think it wants me to consume too much, but when I lower it not enough is added for my BMR (what was working last week and before). This time I am just going to shoot for 1900 everyday and NEVER go over. Hope to break the plateau next week! Here I come September 1st!!!!

    Things have kind of stalled for me since mid-August. We've had lots of evenings out and now we've got out-of-town guests and a small road trip this weekend. It's going to be hard to keep my food in check, but I'll try. If I don't gain anything, I'll consider it a victory.

    After Labor Day, I should be able to get back on track.

    Aunt Flo added about 4lbs last week, so while I'm up 1lb from my last official weigh-in, I'm choosing to be positive. :)

    Moved my weigh in day to the weekend. Had a loss of .4lb which does make me a bit happy. I've been working out more, but losing less and it's frustrating. I might stop working out (I know bad), but I mean it kept me losing... I'll do this next week and see what happens. Then I will readjust to something else.

    Can't keep my stuff together this week. Over all week long. Getting it together next week, for real. Had a 1.8 gain. Missed several workouts and missed challenges. Readjusted my calorie goals with MFP and Fitbit. Got my 3 workouts. Getting back on the wagon and not going over. rant done.

    I was on track all week with my diet until I went to the Festival this weekend. Boy was it so good, but I paid the price ultimately... Not disappointed though b/c I still lost weight AND I hit my goal of working out 4 days last week. My goal this week is to loose 2 pounds to hit my 5 pound mini goal. Will focus on bringing my lunch to work each day to avoid binge eating.

    This week I'm doing a total boby cleanse. Today is day 2 and I feel LIKE CRAP... so my activity level may be a little low. Going to focus on veggies and lean meats. Just need to have the energy to continue this race. Hopefully this cleanse will help.

    The 180's have been a struggle. It's really tough, also considering I have never slowly lost weight out of them before! Next week I'll try to see if I can get out of it, might do another weigh in later or tomorrow to check if it was a mistake... my scale has been kind of wonky or seems like it might be.

    Down 16.5 lbs, so far so good.

    The group weigh-in has really slacked off, there are only a few of us who still do it! I keep doing it because I'm still finding it helpful, it's still something I feel like I'm working toward throughout the week.

    Two birthday parties back to back and I am for pounds up. Back to the 180's I guess. It's really hard to break out of them, I swear my body just feels comfortable at that weight. I worked out a lot more this week and plan to do everyday this week. I made my goal 0.5lb to lose each week. Still feeling it, still trying!

    This has been the worst dance with the 180's. Made me think about somethings. About how I feel pretty good in it right now, but last year I felt so large and overall huge. How I wished I could through the weight off. My diet is crap with fast food right now and I can't see it changing with me always on the go. GYMPACT has been making me stressed so I will discontinue it probably until summer hits again. I've just been so frustrated with this weight. Counting calories has also (I feel) given me some sort of anxiety. With all this stress, I just can't. I'm adding in daily 30 minute walks now to get 250 burnt a day, because I am trying to lose half a pound a week. Other than that TDEE and MFP numbers aren't adding up and weight is just NOT coming off. Sorry for the rant.
