Weight lost/gained this week: - .8
Weight lost/gained this month: - .8
Successes/struggles this week: Im almost down a pound! Small step in the right direction! I was better at logging everything I'm eating and being honest about it. I didn't get in as much exercise as I wanted, but I have no excuse!
My goal is stay strong through the weekend and be more active and not pig out.
Next week: 30 minutes of activity 5 days, incorporate lifting weights and continue logging every bite.
Hope everyone has a successful 2nd week

Successes/struggles this week: Realizing that my activity level is “Sedentary” rather than “Lightly Active” which means that I won’t lose weight as quickly as I would like. Which I knew was true, but I was hoping that I could bend reality with my mighty brain.

Successes/struggles this week:
While I am happy I didn't gain, I'm so frustrated with myself. I log (or write down) my breakfast and lunch, then everything goes down hill. I stop weighing, and just eat without tracking anything. I also had a box of brownies. Yes, I ate the entire box. I'm going to try to stay on track this week, and get moving.
Congratulations everyone on your successes so far!0 -
Only just saw this but hope it's ok to join in anyway. I've checked back in my Fitbit record to find my weight from the beginning of the month.

Successes/struggles this week: I've been off MFP and exercise for 6 weeks due to having some physio, but I had my last physio session yesterday and I re-started logging everything on 4th May. It's also the week after TOTM so a lot of the large drop in weight this week is due to water retention. Today's weight is also the lowest I've been for 7 years so I'm very pleased with that 0 -

Successes this week: I went out drinking/dinner and ate my meal, came home, and did not eat anything else. Usually this is very hard for me to do because since I am out and about drinking, my mind then thinks its "okay" to eat whatever it wants all night.
Struggles this week: This was my last week of graduate classes. I have been extremely fatigued the past few days and when that happens I look for food to keep me "awake" and my mind happy.0 -

Weight lost/gained this month:
Successes/struggles this week:My baby has been sick, which made a bit dificult to go out and run, but i did, as planned. Only in less convenient hours and it has been hard. I broke the 55 kg wall!! I started to drink my coffee without sugar or sweeteners, some friends told me once you get used, you son´t like it sweet anymore. I´m still not there, though
. I ve tried to swap my candy bars for dark chocolate, but found out (again) that i better don´t have more than a serving portion at home, and the good chocolate bars usually come in 100 g. Besides that i ve been quite moderate with sweets this week, except yesterday. I tend to binge when i spend too much time alone. Eat fast and a lot when the baby sleeps, because i don´t know if i would be able to do it later. I will try to be in company and do interesting things when my husband works. A 12 kg baby that still can´t walk is exhausting!
Good luck everybody!0 -
