    Weight -/+ this week: 1
    Weight -/+ this month: 1

    Successes/struggles this week: My struggles will be dealing with a bad big toe and bum hip on my left, make running impossible, squatting and P/U's/Burpee's are almost impossible too. And I am dealing with a nagging sinus infection. But other than that I am fit as a cello!
    I think a pound a week should be doable.

    > UPDATE <
    I forgot to account for soccer season starting which because I can not run at this time I mostly just stand there and coach. This will take me out of the gym three days a week or at least greatly reduce my W/O time. I may have to learn to get up at 0400 to get in a W/O before work. YIKES!
    I am going to stick with my goal of 185 but it just got real up in here!
    Good luck y'all!

    > UPDATE 3/11<
    My sinus infection is back which the biggest issue with that is it really zaps my energy.

    Weight -/+ this week: - 1.4
    Weight -/+ this month: - 2.8

    Successes/struggles this week: I've been 133.2 for a lot of this week and was firmly down to 133 yesterday, but today I've had a huge 1.4 lb jump on the scales because I had takeaway pizza last night haha! I'm using yesterday's weight because I know this is water weight and not representative. I've been doing quite well at sticking to calories, and I think the fact that I haven't had any booze for two weeks has helped with this.

    Weight +/- this week: -1.3
    Weight +/- this month: -2.3

    Successes/struggles this week: I finally got some exercise and feel much better for it! Hope to get even more in this weekend and next week. I also counted calories carefully, and paid closer attention to what I ate. I did struggle with bored eating last night, that could have been avoided if I made a dinner plan and stuck to it. I need to be extra diligent this week, because when I often get down to 140 easily, get stuck there, give up, and then have to work my way back down to 140 again. I really want to be consistently in 130s by the end of the month.
