    I've been weighing daily just to get myself excited. I've pretty much have been going down but went up a bit today.. not sure why. I ended up eating only at dinner as work was a nightmare today.. I'm not really sure of my goal weight maybe 125-135 depending on how I look..

    Hi All! I thought I already joined this thread... but can't find my original post, so maybe not. I started MFP on July 1st so I'm going to use that as my starting date and weight.

    Feeling good so far! I was really out of shape when I started this and exercise was SO hard. But, I can tell my body is starting to react to the walking I've been doing and it's getting easier each day. I'll check back Wed. since that's my weigh in day.

    Start Weight (7th July):83.4 kg
    Goal Weight (28 Sept):78 kg

    7th July: 83.4

    Weight goal for this week: 0.8 kg
    Weight lost/gained this week: -1.3 kg

    was down to 82 but went to visit my parents for 5 days; was fairly good but not good enough :-) anyway, I am happy with my loss and am planning on being good again this week. let's see, how realistic that is. It is hot here so weight fluctuates like crazy depending on whether you drink enough, retain water... still, the overall trend is visible and it's a nice one!

    "Break down your goal into smaller, specific goals that can be measured. If your goal is to lose say 20 pounds, a smaller weekly goal might be to start eating healthy snacks."

    Diet Mistakes Sabotaging Your Weight loss

    1. Not eating enough protein for breakfast 2. Not planning a healthy snack twice a day 3. Not counting calories from alcohol 4. Eating a salad for lunch( some salads have more calories than a meal) plan wisely 5. leaving the carb off the dinner plate. 6. Avoiding the foods you love ( if you don't plan for that food) you will eventually binge on it later. 7. Fade Diets( if they promise to lose 10 pounds a week- Run)

    Be smart in your choices and be patient, you did not gain it over night. You will not lose it over night.

    Start Weight (July 7, 2015): 164.7lb 32.2% Body Fat
    Goal Weight (September 29, 2015): 150lb
    Difference: 14.7lb

    July 14: 160.2lb 31.4% Body Fat
    July 21: 160.4lb 31.4% Body Fat

    Weight lost/gained this week: +0.2lbs and -0.0% Body Fat
    Total Weigh Lost/Gained: -4.3lbs and -0.8% Body Fat

    Last week was a pretty rough week emotionally and I didn't eat as well as I should. Too many easy to fix frozen foods. I'm glad I didn't gain too much, but hopefully I can turn it around and get back on track this week.

    Amanda, 30, 5'6"
    July 7: 151.6
    July 14: 149.4
    July 21: 149.8
    Weight loss the week: +0.4 and it wasn't a surprise at all...

    I went into the week with good meal prep and ended in a Carbapalooza. I'm talking entire boxes of crackers, mac&cheese, bags of chips. My goals this week are to do a meal prep twice: Tuesday and Saturday. I will also continue to work on form in my weightlifting instead of trying to increase the pounds. Far cardio, I want to get my C210K in on Thursday and Monday, saving Sunday for a hike in the mountains. Rest days are Wednesday and Saturday.
