    Hi,

    So glad this exists! :)

    So, here goes:

    Name: Maria
    Age: 25
    Height: 5'5''

    Start Weight (1st July): 135 lbs
    Goal Weight (1st August): 124 lbs

    1st August:

    Week 1:
    Weight lost/gained this week: A week ago I was 134 lbs but gained 1 lbs this week as i am PMSing and am super bloated! Sucks! :'(
    Weight lost/gained this month: Lost 5 lbs!

    Successes/struggles this week: I lost a total of 5 lbs so far. I started off from 142 lbs. This is the heaviest I have ever been in my life and I am disgusted by the way I have started looking. Can't believe how I got here. I stress eat, and my job was being really tough so I gained a lot of weight the past couple of months. But my success this week was that I did all days of Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30 and have been eating clean and carefully. So that's big for me. I am going out with my friends tomorrow, so lets hope I manage to clean eat tomorrow too! (fingers crossed)

    Best,
    Maryam

    Successes/struggles this week: Was sick with sunstroke yesterday, so off to an ace start! No but seriously, I need to ramp it up this month and meet this goal. Once the school hols kick in I'll exercise in the morning rather than just not doing it because I feel hot and sluggish after work, which is how it's been going.

    Weight lost/gained this month:

    Successes/struggles this week: I just kinda haven't felt like doing anything. I've done everything I was supposed to, but I just kinda haven't actually felt like it. Maybe I should take the weekend to recharge. Then again, I do that every weekend, so... welp, hopefully next week will be better, anyway. On the bright side, on laundry day, I wore a pair of pants I haven't been able to wear for a while.
