    Successes/struggles this week: Symptoms of MS really kicked my butt this week and fatigue slowed me down. Sleeping more than 3 hours a night was mandatory and not an option. I felt so hungry this week that I often came home and ate an entire head of Romaine lettuce before doing anything else. Thankfully I have complete control over the shopping so options for snacking are limited. Feeling pleased that I am close to the goal for the month.

    Successes/struggles this week: The weather has been a real demotivator for me. I'm in southern CA and it's already gotten to be pretty hot this last week (80's to 90's). On the plus side, last weekend was the Long Beach Grand Prix where I attended all 3 days of it. So much walking! I made sure to bring a camel back so I stayed hydrated. I think this really helped with my success! Next week may be a different story. Lol We shall see!

    Successes/struggles this week: I had stalled out for a couple weeks...which was super frustrating. So much so that I didn't even log until today. I woke up and "whoosh"...1.6 lbs down! I'm feeling a lot better now. I don't think I'll hit 150 this month, but I am really proud of the weight I lost so far! I'm hoping to at least get into the 140's by summer!
