    Weight -/+ this week: -2.4
    Weight -/+ this month:-2.8

    Successes/struggles this week: This week I have a terrible chest and sinus cold so I haven't worked out since Saturday. Some of my weight loss might water weight from not lifting this week. Some of it might be due to not having an evening snack after the kids go to bed. I've just been going to bed when they do. It's still awesome to be in the 130s! That's a huge milestone for me - I haven't been here since high school! Next week we're going on vacation so I will probably allow myself a lot of leeway and go back up for a bit.

    Weight loss/gain this week: -4.4
    Weight loss/gain this month: -4.3

    Success/struggles this week: It seems like a big weight loss for the week, but I consider that a loss for the last two weeks as
    I had a slight gain last week after going to Milestones the night before weigh in for dinner and not checking the menu BEFORE
    going. I stuck the food plan, I slightly increased exercise, so I am very happy so far. Obviously, if I stick to the plan, it works!

    Here's wishing you all good weigh ins!

    Weight -/+ this month: +1lb

    Successes/struggles this week: Grr, I had one bad day of eating but kicked *kitten* the next day burning over a 1,000 cals and I still gained a pound. I'm thinking it's water weight. I'm supposed to start my cycle soon and I had a lot of sodium lately which is known for water retention. Im going to reweigh myself tomorrow and see if it's the same or better. :(

    Successes/struggles this week: I love almost all food!
    Success was exercising at least one day. I was able to follow a food diet without falling off the wagon too many times. Hoping to keep up this trend.
    Struggle? It was finals week. Wine was my relaxer. Not drinking it was a struggle but managing
    I'm only 11 pounds away from my goal :smile:
    I am still looking for inexpensive gluten free recipes ❤️
