    Welcome!

    All you need to do is Copy the first post into a new 'Reply', cut out the extraneous nonsense, add your own info, and post.

    You'll do the same thing each week, after you weigh in.

    (I recommend that you copy your post onto a blank document on your computer, so that you don't have to hunt to find it for your next reply.)

    Good luck!

    Weight lost/gained this week:+2.6
    Weight lost/gained this month: +2.6

    Successes/struggles this week: I really don't know. Workouts were completed consistently, logging in diary and staying within calorie intake was good. The one thing I would say is sweets. Even though I did not go over my calorie intake (like in the past) I made choices for sweets instead of a healthier choice. I'll try harder this week.

    Weight lost/gained this week: -1.2
    Weight lost/gained this month: -1.2

    Successes/struggles this week: Cookout on Saturday worried me because all the food was casseroles with lots of butter and cheese, and there were BBQ ribs. I let myself eat what I wanted to, but they were small portions: just 2-3 bites worth. I struggled Sunday because I was in the "cheating" mindset, and I allowed others to influence my food choices on Monday. I was barely over (36 calories), but I knew I made the wrong choice at lunch. However, I feel like I redeemed myself on Tuesday. I walked 4.5 miles in just over an hour, and I felt amazing afterwards.
