    Struggles/ successes: Not a real loss as I think that my start weight was artificially high. I've been doing really well with exercise, but drinking far too much wine and eating too much - must stop baking! Feeling motivated now to get on track.

    Successes/struggles this week:

    Weighed in this morning after not having weighed since the 1st. Down 1.6 lbs. Having the flu last week helped, and getting back on track once I felt like eating again has really helped too! Struggling with getting my water intake back up and remembering to track it. Took last week off from Stronglifts (again flu!), but back at it this week as well. Just keep swimming...just keep swimming...

    Successes/struggles this week: Wow, I just realized I hit my goal! I always lose water weight when I first start. New goal is 5 more pounds by the end of the month!
    Start back to jogging in am, that is my best time. Did really good this past week and did 10,000 steps all last week, so plan to keep up 10,000 steps per day during week. Keep logging food.

    Successes/struggles this week: So far my struggles are snacking. Mindless snacking that is. I seem to munch even when i'm full. Mostly I do it out of boredom. Working on this by planning better and keeping my hands and mind busy in the evenings.

    Successes/struggles this week: Cataract surgery on second eye, so no exercise beyond walking for a week. That means I'd better get down to doing some heroic walking this week. The big news: I broke under 200 lbs. for the first time since the 1990s.
