    Weight lost/gained this week: -.8
    Weight lost/gained this month: -1.8

    Successes/struggles this week:
    Week 1: Getting ready to go on vacation. Road food always kills me and lack of exercise. I plan to really try hard to get in some exercise, enjoy myself but eat in moderation. We'll see!

    Week 2: Vacation and road food! Guess I'm going the wrong way in this thing. Not too worried about it, been on vacation and knew that it was going to be higher this week. I just have to put it in high gear the next few weeks.

    Week 3: Did a good job at losing the vacation wieght, plus a little bit more. Success for this week, found a new exercise, Pickleball... loved it and it gave me a great burn.
    Week 4: Should have been a better loss.

    1st July:

    Weight lost/gained this week: - 2.9 / 1.3
    Weight lost/gained this month: - 6.2 / 2.8 kg

    Successes/struggles this week: weight is going down and it starts showing - I love it! During the week there were no major struggles; I had an accidental slip with cheese where I first ate and then checked calories ;-) but that was it. Motivated in work outs. The weekend was a bit harder, I was visiting my parents and there were 2 parties on Saturday! I tried to be fairly reasonable but knew I would be going over my limit. Sunday was not too bad. Today I am extremely tired and really don't want to go to my swim class at all. I am trying to talk myself into it though as it is the last one before the summer break and it really helped so much to have these fixed exercise dates. I find it hard to imagine that I really could be in a normal weight range if I kept on doing this. I seems very unreal. It is still a long way off though.

    Name: Clare
    Age: 28
    Height: 175cm/5'9"

    Start Weight (1st June): 104.4kg/230lbs
    Goal Weight (1st July): 102kg/224lbs - Huzzah!
    New Goal Weight (1st July): 100.5kg/221lbs

    1st June: 104.4kg/230lbs
    8th June: 104.6kg/230lbs
    15th June: 102.2/225lbs
    22nd June: 101.9/224lbs
    29th June:
    1st July:

    Weight lost/gained this week: -.3kg/.6lbs
    Weight lost/gained this month: -2.5kgs/5.5lbs

    Successes/struggles this week: I'm happy the downward trend is continuing after my blowout on the first weekend and I'm VERY, VERY excited about being so close to double digits.

    I have a weekly dinner out with friends where I tend to eat 'freely' (to a point), which I think really helps me from having massive blowouts during the rest of the week. I mostly stay in or around my daily kjs on an average day.

    I've been having porridge for breakfast every day (two of the Uncle Toby's sachet things made with water), which starts my day off well, I like not having to think about calculating the kjs in the morning. I tend to end the day with a cup of tea and some gingerbread mini muffins (roughly 200kjs each) or something little to just finish off the eating part of the day.

    Two weeks left!

    Weight lost/gained this week: -2.6
    Weight lost/gained this month: -6.0

    Successes/struggles this week:
    WEEK ONE: I will do this! I will be starting the 30 Fat burning challenge from Daily HIIT blog! I will lose this 8 lbs!

    WEEK TWO: I'm so happy and proud of myself! I wanted to lose 2.5 lbs and I lost that and some! No struggles to speak of!

    Goals for this week:
    Drink more water
    Vary my exercise routine

    WEEK THREE: only a few ounces this week. Disappointed but a loss is a loss and won't deter me. Need to make time this week to exercise regularly. No excuses!

    Goals for this week:
    Drink more water.
    Exercise every day.
    No cheat meal this week.

    WEEK FOUR: Had a good week this week. My work schedule was a little wonky this week so there were a few times my calorie intake was low and didn't give me a completion. But I promised myself if I wasn't hungry I wouldn't eat just to make an app happy.
    And only 2 more lbs. to go before I meet my June goal! Yay!!

    Goals for this week are same as above:
    1) more water
    2) exercise everyday ( work stress has been minimized so I should be better about this!)
    3) no cheat meal this week

    Weight lost/gained this week: 0
    Weight lost/gained this month: 6 lost

    Successes/struggles this week: I was sick with pneumonia last week. I was actually down another pound when I went to the doctor on Wednesday. I think the lack of exercise and food hit me pretty had, even though I wasn't taking much in, I wasn't burning any either. I'm better this week but still very weak so taking it easy. I used my sickness as an excuse for ice cream, lots of it. Sore throat, hardly eating so figured it would be ok. Though I technically didn't gain anything this week, I know I was down a pound earlier this week and I gained that pound back. That just irks me. So going to get my steps back up first this week and hopefully I'll be up to some actual cardio next week. And no more ice cream!

    Our Grandson had a birthday party yesterday and the cake

    Successes: My roommate moved back in after spending a few weeks with her parents... she brought cookie dough, chinese food leftovers, and doritos among other snacks. I didn't have any of it! I stayed strong and didn't eat off my plan :)

    Struggles this week: Weight loss is slowing which is discouraging after two weeks of huge loss. I ate a little extra chocolate this past week, but I also had longer and harder workouts :( Hopefully some of the slow progress is due to my TOM coming this week. Hoping for a bigger number next week!

    Copied and updated!!!
    Oh I'm so excited to find this thread!! I've been heavy for years and like everyone else have tried everything and had some success but it always came right back. I've realized that it has to be a lifestyle change and choice- so with MFP Diary and adding exercise I'm going to do just that!!

    I need friends to add me and encourage me and I will do the same in return-

    "We can do anything we want to do, if we want to bad enough---- and if we don't want to, we just make an excuse!!" No more excuses for me--- I'm in this 100% !!!! Who is with me!!!!??????!!!!!

So if anyone reading this would actually like to help someone who's struggling to stay on track, please feel free to add me, I could really use some REAL support.

    29th June:
    1st July:

    Loss/gain for the week: 1 lbs loss
    Loss/gain this month: 5 lbs loss

    Struggles or successes of your week:
    Struggles: I was under eating four days and that killed sufficient weight loss (was hoping for 2 lbs as I was religiously exercising with cardio.) By doing this, I was forcing my body to hang on to the weight to avoid "starvation". Can't under eat the suggested calorie intake! Big mistake! Will try to avoid it in the future.
    Successes: My weight didn't move the entire week, but managed to work it off on the weekend again.
