    Weight lost/gained this month: +1.3kg

    Successes/struggles this week: Aaaaand I lost the streak. This is the first time I've gained weight but my excuse will be that I was sick at the weekend. Also I think for the last month I was hitting 1000-1200 calories a day so was maybe eating too little. Trying to hit more the 1200-1400 as I am quite active now. My measurements haven't changed so maybe it's protein. COME ON NEXT WEEK!

    Successes/struggles this week:
    ***Struggles - I knew I had a 3.5 hour road trip this weekend for a 4th of July shindig, but didn't plan for it very well and ended up eating things I shouldn't have / didn't plan for. And after riding in a car for that long, I should have gotten moving as soon as I arrived, but I waited and ended up skipping any sort of exercise for the day...then pretty much did it again on the return trip.
    ***Success - I made some side dishes for the party that I knew would be healthier than any options that were served, and filled my plate with those instead of the chips and desserts.
