    I keep forgetting to weigh in over the weekend, so I did it this morning. Tried out a Zumba class last night and sweat a lot! Encouraging to be losing steadily this month! This is definitely motivation to keep going back to the Y. Goal is to make it 3 times this week.

    The scale has been fluctuating wildly for me recently because I am in the processing of moving and not eating right due to not really cooking much for myself. I hope we get settled in soon! At least that Saturday was a loss day, because today is not...

    I look forward to seeing my progress this month. I think any type of group/ community is helpful in success of any addiction. I do consider food an addiction but necessary for life. :)

    I didn't do much exercise this week, it was just an extremely busy week. Once again I was reminded of how important tracking every single calorie is. Very happy with a 3.6 loss this week!

    I hope everyone had a successful week and good luck in the coming week!

    I'm having a hard time losing weight this month. Maybe switching to .5/wk wouldn't be so bad. Then I wouldn't binge!!! I just wanna lose 9 more pounds overall. Switching my GW for OCtober from 141 to 143.

    I knew that 168 was a lie! Pshhhhh, analog scales are the worst. I also went away for the long weekend and drank way too many gin & tonics. Not surprised by this number at all. Going to be pushing really hard these next two weeks to hit my goal. That's for sure!
