    Down a little from last week, although took yesterday as an additional rest day, which probably didn't help. Hope to get to the gym today and get a good workout in.

    Make today a healthy one!

    ENCOURAGING WORD...

    WAY TO GO EVERYONE! Just the fact you are all still posting means you have not given up on your goals! For some of us our weight loss is not going nearly fast enough and you may have been presented with certain unexpected challenges, which have resulted in a setback! It has happened to ME! We had a crisis couple of weeks with family, but I know taking care of myself is still vitally important! I know this momentary setback shall pass.

    If you too have gotten off course, make sure to reset your focus, get back up and go on! You will soon fall into a rhythm with a comfortable stride.

    Just keep pressing through and refuse to get discouraged!

    They say people tend to consume higher sodium and more food over weekends and that Monday is usually our highest weight and Friday our lowest. If you go out over the weekend you could be just seeing higher water weight on Tuesday weigh ins.

    My maintain game is apparently strong. Either there is a whoosh coming my way, or I might just flip the switch from weight loss to body recomp. Regardless, I'm feeling pretty good. ^_^

    Up 2.4 since Saturday morning :(

    I've come to hate Tuesday weigh-ins. I know I wouldn't hate them if I didn't eat and drink stuff on Saturday and Sunday that made me retain water. I feel like the last couple of weeks I've had to work all week just to get the water off and I don't see a good number on the scale until Friday or Saturday...

    This week's challenge for me is to eat clean all weekend so I don't have such a huge water fluctuation the first part of the week.

    Last week I lost 4.6 pounds from being sick. This week, I've gained some of that back, which I guess is to be expected. Last week I hit 180.8 today I am 184.0. I'm up 3.2 pounds. The medications I've been put on have cause a lot of GI distress and air on my stomach so only time will tell how much of the 184 is a true weight or not. Either way, for this challenge, I am still down a total of 4 pounds so I'll take it. Hopefully next week I'll be back on course at a more stable weight and can move forward from there. I can say that being sick through Christmas prevented any holiday weight gain :lol: Silver lining, you know.

    My weight is starting to stabilize and I think I'll be able to move forward from here losing weight. Today I am 182.0. That's 2 pounds from last week and 6 pounds for the challenge. 12 pounds till challenge goal weight.

    AHHHHHHH!!!! Driving me crazy.

    last week: 182
    this week: 181.8

    I'm hoping it's just TOM (I'm irregular and never know for sure). Maybe next week will bring better luck. My eating has been on point so I guess I'll just keep trudging along.

    last week: 181.8
    This week: 179.0
    Goal this challenge: 170 (9 pounds away!)
    Ultimate goal: 140

    YAY!

    So far this challenge I'm at an almost 10 pound loss.
