    Successes/struggles this week: Loads of socialising this week - one lunch left me in physical pain! The host went to so much trouble and it was all delicious, so that and a trip to the seaside gave me a gain. Enjoyed it though!
    But have managed to end the challenge losing it and a new 1lb. Walked 7 miles at the beach and started exercising again, so that's definitely something I must keep going for June.

    1st May: 278
    8th May: 273
    Weight lost/gained this week: -5 lbs
    Successes/struggles this week: Was able to wear a pair of pants I couldn't fit a couple of weeks ago and had room to spare! Also, noticed my stamina has increased. Got through more than 30 minutes of cardio without stopping or feeling like I was going to pass out. I am however struggling today with my motivation. I found myself contemplating giving up on this journey. I decided to take a body shot so that I would have some point of comparison for the future. Seeing that picture really depressed me. I knew I was out of shape but I didn't realize it was this bad. It just makes my goals seem that much more unattainable.

    15th May: 271
    Weight lost/gained this week: -2 lbs
    Successes/struggles this week: I don't feel like I've had much success this week but I did notice a non-scale victory. My bath towel now fits around my body without any gaps. I struggled this week with motivation to get into the gym. I had great success last week when I was working out twice a day but I just couldn't find it in myself to do more than once a day this week. I feel like my rest day threw me off.

    22nd May: 267
    Weight lost/gained this week: -4 lbs
    Successes/struggles this week: I've surpassed my goal for this challenge. Tom came this week so I struggled with my craving for chocolate and the desire to constantly eat. But I managed to control myself. Still haven't been able to get my 2 workouts per day in but I managed to lose a good amount anyway. Maybe I'll save the 2 times per day for when I hit a plateau.

    29th May: 263
    Weight lost/gained this week: -4 lbs
    Successes/struggles this week: I definitely weigh myself too much. I got extremely frustrated after eating right and working my butt off in the gym and the pool last weekend and I wound up gaining 3 lbs. It really bummed me out so on my son's birthday I ate cake, ice cream, and cookies and didn't work out. I didn't even log in what I ate that day. The next day the scale finally moved and the 3 lbs came back off so I got back on track. I find that I'm always frustrated because it doesn't seem like the scale is moving until I log in here and realize how much I've really lost for the week. So my big struggle is staying off the scale. Besides the 4 lbs lost this week I can't think of any other successes.

    1st June: 261
    I lost 9 lbs more than my goal so I couldn't be happier. I'd call that a successful challenge.

    Weight lost/gained this month: -17 lbs
