    Hi, Everyone!

    This is a follow on from the April Weight Loss Challenge. It works the same way: You set your own goals, then weigh in each week. (Feel free to change the weigh-ins to suit your own schedule.) Everyone is welcome, no matter what your goals may be. You don't need to have done the April challenge to join in May.

    So, here goes:

    Name: Mary

    Weight lost/gained this month: -0.3

    Struggles this week: Cooking. I've just been a bit meh in the kitchen lately and it's harming my food. Not eating enough veg.

    Successes: I can eat garlic! So I'm on the FODMAP diet to try and figure out what is wrong with my gut. Well I come from a family that uses multiple cloves of garlic in a dish and then tops it up with some garlic powder. But for this diet I've gone off garlic, onions & oniony like, high fructose fruits, etc. to test them individually. I definitely pinned down onions as a problem food last fortnight but have been waiting for my gut to heal a little before trying on garlic. Well I haven't had any issue. Made a spag bol sauce last night with the most delicious garlicky flavours and it didn't hurt me. I could dance. It seems so silly but pinning down my problem foods has been so helpful. Next I'm trying apples- wish me luck because dear lord almighty I miss my apples!

    Today I ran. A block. I haven't been able to run outside for years. And even though I still needed my inhaler, it was awesome, and my puppy was happy to go for a small run at the end of our walk.

    Success/struggles this week: struggling to stay motivated when my weight loss has slowed down on the scale. However, I tried on a pair of shorts that haven't fit me and four years and they are really close to fitting, so I found this to keep me motivated instead.

    -2.6
    Weight lost/gained this month: -2.6

    Successes/struggles: I had a really good weekend for the first time since the month of March. I stuck to my calories every day and actually got a workout in. I also had a big NSV yesterday. My in-laws fixed my absolute favorite meal…roast in brown gravy with homemade baked macaroni and cheese. That is normally one HUGE first plate, a second slightly smaller helping, AND a big lunch plate for the next day. Well I stuck to one small plate of very small portions and did not go back for seconds nor did I make a lunch plate for today. I enjoyed it and was full after I ate my small plate. Huge victory!!!

    Hope everyone has a great week! Good luck to all!!! Keep up the good work!!!

    Weight lost/gained this month: Gained .6

    Successes/struggles this week: I was offered a job on Friday! I have been out of work for 10 months, so this is very exciting! I did not go out and party, actually, I stayed true to my calorie intake for the rest of the week. I think what “got” me was that I did not exercise on Friday or Saturday. Plus, just another reason why I try not to weigh more than once a week since I know the scale can go up and down daily and this is usually very discouraging to me. Here’s to a great week of working out!
