Weight -/+ this week: So far 2lbs
Weight -/+ this month:
Weight lost overall: It says 5lbs, but that's a lie! I lost 15 lbs this time last year and have since gained most of it back. Ugh!
**Goal for this week: Not to worry about the scale, just to show up. Work out 4x's this week.
Successes/struggles this week: Starting to actually change - instead of think about it and get bummed. Still hungry, tho.
Successes/struggles overall: I made a lifestyle change at the beginning of last year, lost 15lbs, fell in love, gained some it back, lost it over the holidays, got a new job downtown, completely blew my diet/fitness routine out of the water (it came to a stand still), gained some more back, and trying to get back on track...ugh...this is exhausting! So. Many. Changes.1 -

Success:
My goal for this week is to workout 4 days a week and to record my food and exercise every day. I must get used to logging in and maintaining awareness!
I have a friend who is an athletic trainer for professional tennis players. He says to focus on the goals of eating and exercising not on pounds lost. The weight loss and toning will come as a result of meeting the goals that are achievable.
Hang in there everyone!

Successes and struggles this week- I had some struggles this week...unexpected real life stress did have me eating a little bit off my normal diet. I know I could have done better. Success though I did see a loss. Also I learned something about myself...i always thought I just ate because I just like to eat vs emotional/stress eating but Ive learned I do have urges to eat more when there is stressful situations. I try to keep my real life stress to a maximum minimum (even when i was at my heaviest) but sometimes things do happen. I am going to have to accept that.
Great Job Guys on all your loses and progress!! Very proud of each of you.5 -
I won't be on much this weekend - as we'll be busy - so I'm posting today!

Successes/ Struggles this week: Since I returned to work it is hard to fit in exercise, and the stress hormones make it harder for the body to lose weight. So the trick will be to find balance. I'm recovering from broken leg and broken wrist, funny how quickly we lose muscle mass.
