Successes/struggles this week:
A number of struggles this week and very little success. I caught a bad cold, worked all week despite it, had PMS then awful cramps, got to Friday night and said "f it!". It is a wonder that I did not gain this week - eating junk, going over calories and not exercising. To deal with the cravings-guilt-give up cycle I have increased my calories. I really need to find alternatives to eating to make myself feel better. Due to long reinforced poor choices, I struggle to stop and change the behaviour.0 -

Successes/struggles this week: I had to work Tuesday night and I let that throw my whole having brkfst and making my lunch pattern off for days. I also was enjoying my exercise ap exaggerating calories burned and compensating by eating to make up for it. I changed some setting in that ap so hopefully it's more accurate. Ski season is coming soon and my knees want a lighter me.

Successes/ Losses:
Frustrated weight is hanging in there working out 6 days a week trying to stick with low-carb diet but it's really kicking my butt making me more tired Ugh! Hope everybody's day is going Great!!
Maybe you should workout every other day. Gives your body a time of rest. It is probably water retention from your work outs0 -

Successes/struggles this week: Monday morning weigh-ins are always difficult for me. After seeing my lowest weight of the week on Saturdays (121.6 this week), recording my highest weight is discouraging. It doesn't matter how diligent I am with my diet over the weekend, there is always a Monday weight gain.0 -
