    I have a lot of social events in May (my parents visiting on the 7/8th, my birthday on the 11th and away with friends the 14/15th!!) - but I'm going to do what I can and aim for a 4lb loss this month. Good luck everyone!

    Hey @Working2BBetter -- didn't know you were here!

    I'm aiming for a pound per week to get rid of this weight I suddenly packed on in the past 12 months.

    I indulged in a little (a lot) too much in Mother's Day sushi last night! I've been weighing in between 122.2 and 122.8 all week. TOM is set to start in a few days, and I always have a little woosh a few days into that. So hopefully next Monday I'll see a good loss!

    AGH I was at 128 all week, and then yesterday we ate all the sodium-laden things over at my mother-in-law's house. I woke up so swollen I could barely get my rings on. Hopefully that comes right back off, this is not a good feeling!

    I was actually down to 156.2 almost all week then a big, hearty meal yesterday for Mother's Day with big desserts brought me up to 158. *sighs* Maybe, I should start weighing myself every Friday! :D

    GW: 155-160 by June 25th (Trip to France!)

    Starting weight in May: 170.2
    GW in May: 163 or less


    I'm tightening up my calories. I was on 1lb/week in April at 1640 calories/day. Now I've set my goal to 1.5lb/week at 1380 (1400-ish is more realistic). I've been doing a strength training program (Body Sculpting Bible for Women, 3x per week with weights) and adding even more cardio. I was doing 1 spin class per week, walking 3-4 days a week, and playing Just Dance once a week (ish) if the weather was icky.

    For May, my goal is to continue with the Body Sculpting program with heavier weights, add at least one more spin class per week, and add running intervals to my walks. I want to burn at least 3500 calories per week (that's one pound!) so I can reach 163-164 by the end of the month.

    Edit: Although, "If every day were like today, I'd weight 153.2 lbs in 5 weeks"! I'd LOVE to make that happen, lol.

    So excited to break my plateau! Only I totally went overboard and ate too much at a party at work! Pizza, BBQ, cookies, and ice cream cake... Totally kicking myself now :( I feel like I gained 10 pounds.

    Hopefully any gain will be temporary. Anyone else done this?

    Close to my goal for the month, but not holding my breath that it will stick.... It has been a rough week. I'll keep putting in the work. If I can get lower, I'm all for that!

    I'm late, but so glad this group has restarted. I'm a super slow loser, and if not accountable, the weight will creep back on.
