    I'm thinking losing 20 pounds by 4th of July is definitely an attainable goal! Some of us just finished the 20 pounds by Easter Challenge (congrats if you made your goal!) and maybe fell a little short. Don't give up! Join this challenge!

    Unfortunately, I gained the weight back +1 :-(

    4/23/16: 146
    +4lbs

    I'm not sure if it's water weight, since I've been drinking more water recently. I may have to decrease my sodium intake so I don't retain the water! Of course, I'm going to look at my food diary and see if I can tweak a few things. I'm also considering using a wellness program from work for weight loss support. I'm still motivated to lose by reading these forums and everyone's progress!

    Sorry. We've all had weeks like that, and it sucks! Keep going! It's hard, especially when you work so hard and are expecting a loss. Make sure you're staying close to your calorie limit. Drink tons and tons of water, and make sure you're getting enough protein every day. Chin up buttercup! :smile:

    I had a bit of a downfall over the weekend. I had family come over and one meal cheat turned into a whole weekend thing.

    I have another weekend coming up where I am afraid I won't be able to stay on track. I have my nieces birthday on Friday, party just close family only and then Sat we'll have another party with extended family and friends... what can I do to stay on track?

    Plan ahead, if you know what's going to be served at the party, decide before getting there what you plan to eat and log it. If you don't know, just eat in moderation and make sure you hit the gym each day, you'll do fine.
