    Loss/gain for the month so far: -3.4lbs

    Struggles or successes of your week:

    Successes: I've finished day 8 of the 30 day shred, and still going strong. Nervous for level 2 though!


    Struggles: I think if I didnt have such a bad week with eating, I probably could have made my goal. It was one of those weeks where I've eaten pretty much everything in sight. And soooo much sodium! Ugh!

    Name: Cassandra
    Height: I actually don't know...5'5"ish?
    Starting Weight (3/1): ~159
    Goal Weight (3/31): 154

    My weigh in days are Sundays :)

    3/1: 159.4
    3/8: n/a (I normally keep track every week but knew I ate horribly so was too scared to weigh myself)
    3/15: 161.4 (a result of the above mentioned horrible eating)
    3/22: 159.6
    3/29: 158


    Loss/gain for the week:
    Loss/gain for the month so far: -1.4lbs

    Struggles or successes of your week: Kinda bummed that I didn't lose the 5lbs I wanted to, but I really have to commit more to going to the gym. I constantly make excuses, mostly because I often can't go until 7-7:30pm and by then I just want to relax on the couch, going to the gym is the last thing on my mind. And stop buying food at the cafeteria at work, I just can't resist the temptation! I really have horrible self control.
