    Struggles or successes of your week: Two months without bread and i dont miss it a bit. Also cut sugar but allow myself once a couple of weeks a small piece of chocolate.
    Struggle to drink the right amount of water, i have 4-5 cups a day. Have to try harder to drink at least 8 cups daily. Many different forms of exercise makes me happy! Hope the weather gets better so i can continue my walking outside.

    Loss/gain for the week: 2.8
    Loss/gain for the month so far: 2.8

    Struggles or successes of your week: This was a good week in terms of eating and no alcohol. I was annoyed in that I weighed in on Monday at 131.4 and then after eating well and doing everything right I bounced back up to 134.6 and spent the week getting rid of it. It know it was water weight related to my TOM but still...I was like a total tease. Lowest weight yet! Then snatched away and no having eaten really bad/good things to show for it. But the 7 days without alcohol is a major victory. Probably haven't done that in about 3 years.

    Struggles or successes of your week: yesterday had supper at friends' who are great cook, ate reasonably but... ate too many chips in the evening :( - Lesson learned: better to have more meat and vegetables and not be tempted by munchies after supper - However, had been extra extra careful all week so obviously did not do too much damage smile: (PS: my original post said 165 on 3/1 and goal of 160 for 3/31 but obviously I must of screwed up something as I could not have lost 7.8 pounds in one week - I changed my starting and goal weights for 160 and 155)

    Struggles or successes of your week: Stressors from work getting me down. Hard not to eat fast food when I work early/late. trying to keep up the food diary. had 2 doughnuts this morning at work, and had a coworker call me fat. I shrugged it off at the time, but I immediately started beating myself up for it. Who is she to say anything about my eating habits? Reasonable me should have realized that and ignored her comment and worked out the caloric impact later. I shouldn't be so hard on myself for little treats every now and then. Not to make them habits, but the little things keep me on track. So whatever. I am working on my lifestyle habits, and 80/20%. I worked out for a total of 1 hr this week, but my job is really physically demanding, so i just need to really work on cardio. Next week I will be doing interval runs every other day, so I really would like to see what kind of results I get!
