    Successes/struggles this week: Heading to the store this afternoon to buy a smaller belt. Yippee!!! My only struggle was giving in and eating something I knew I shouldn't; but, that entire "bowl"/package of Orville Redenbacher popcorn sure was tasty. I don't see myself hitting my original goal of 185 by April 1st; but, if I get to 187 it will still be a great month.

    Successes/struggles this week:
    1st March: In Feb lost 3.3kg (7.3 pounds) and started the whole 30 diet 5 days ago. Always struggle with over eating.
    8th March: Had some good losses even with massively over eating for two days. Still doing the Whole30 but definitely haven't been getting enough sleep which is making everything seem like such a bit effort to complete.
    15th March: Keeping to the Whole30 but still massively over eating on the weekend which shows with this weeks poor results.
    22nd March: Still keeping with the Whole30 and saw huge results this week, probably a lot of water weight loss but I'll take it. Finishing the Whole 30 in 3 days hopefully I learn from it and make better choices in the future.

    Weight loss/ gained this week: -3 lb
    Weight loss/ gained this month: -7 lb

    Successes this week: Still doing a great job resisting temptations! This week we had a yummy Mexican catered lunch and 2 (!!) cakes. I fully enjoyed my lightened up Mexican lunch and no cake and didn't feel weighed down like everyone else! Last night we went to a fun upscale sports bar with sinfully delicious food. My friends ordered pizza, fancy and delicious tater tots, and other goodies, my boyfriend had chicken and waffles, and I had...a beet salad! Only one beer for me as well. My salad was small, but I was proud of my choices. I do not need to eat to have fun! That is my new mantra.

    Also have to mention that I hit my 20 lb goal this week (162)! I'm not sure what my ultimate goal weight is, but I'm guessing that I am close to half way there now :)

    Struggles this week: Just like last week, working out has been a struggle for me this week. I skipped three days and on Friday reached out to my boyfriend and MFP friends for help. I was going to get started back on Saturday but decided on Friday, no, today is still in my control so I did my video Friday evening. It is amazing how much harder it is (physically not mentally) to work out in the evening, and I struggled HARD. It was terrible but I am proud of myself for doing it. This week I am back and WILL wake up every morning and just do it!!!
