    Successes/struggles this week: I started a new job last week. I'm not so much eating over calories (a few times, yes) as I'm eating the wrong foods. I'm tired after work and just want food, don't care what it is, just want to eat it. I know it's all CICO, but the extra salt and grease and fat and soda certainly aren't helping anything. So, I've got my bf helping to wrangle me back in. Here's hoping for a loss next week.

    this is depressing,

    Ok

    I just re-calibrated my bathroom scale.
    I don't know if my start weight was ever correct now.

    With calibrated scale this is my weigh in.

    Goal Weight (May 2 ): 73.1kg - 4th May marks my 1st fitversary. And this number was my ultimate goal as it puts me into a healthy BMI.

    Struggles this week: I'm worrying about maintaining already. Emotionally, I'm not ready for it. That's if I do hit goal.

    Thanks! Do you have a preferred place for your essential oils? I know my mom loves Rocky Mountain Oils because they're food-grade, but they're so expensive!
