Likely a lot of water weight but I'll take it anyway. Trying to stay away from that 200 number don't want to go there.
Challenge today will be a potluck. Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers (and daughters in the group. Thanks for motivating!

Total LBS lost so far: 3.4 (this is probably some water weight lost...and I went to the zoo and walked a ton this weekend.
Weekly Goals: workout 30 minutes a day and walk 30 minutes a day on my lunch break (so far so good!)
Struggles: Coffee. I've had a ton of homework this past week and been drinking a lot in coffee, therefore depriving myself of food that I should be eating in place of those calories.
Successes: I did well at the family functions, and they are all behind me now!1 -

The important thing is to get back to it. think back at the triggers so you can pinpoint them and are then able to work on them. Just get back on it You can do this!

I'm not happy about my weigh-in this week, but I know exactly why it happened. I'm really looking forward to this week, because my new Fitbit is coming in (hopefully it holds a charge!) and my Polar watch and heart rate monitor came in yesterday. I'm ready to finally figure out how many calories I'm actually burning so I can make the most of my time at the gym!
Struggles:
- Logging all of my food into Myfitnesspal (I will do better this week for sure!)
- Eating way more carbs than my macros allowed
- Not getting enough sleep
Successes:
- I reached almost all of my goals this week!
- I hid my scale so I didn't weigh myself the entire week (except last Tuesday)
- I walked to the gym every single day! Luckily the weather was nice1 -

Thank you. We were at the in-laws house and we went out to eat and I just made some very poor decisions. And then my kids made me a dessert and I felt I couldn't tell them no after they worked so hard.1 -

Total LBS lost so far: -4.9 lbs
Weekly Goals:
Drink 3 liters of water a day.
Workout 6 days a week for 30 minutes minimum and have 1 rest day.
Log into MFP every day.
Be completely honest on my food diary (I would only be lying to myself)
Struggles:
This last week I struggled with getting in all my workouts. I allowed various things to be my excuse to just not do them or not give them my 100%. This week my struggle is going to be staying away from chocolate. Its that time of the month and everytime I get crazy chocolate cravings.
Successes:
The scale finally had a nice drop. Its been awhile. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out my CICO, my allowed calories in and my Macro percentages. I think I found a good spot for me FINALLY. As soon as my weight drop slows down I will adjust it again.0 -

I have mixed feelings about this weigh-in; it was mainly from me being sick but at least the scale moved in the right direction!
Struggles:
- Only got to workout twice this week
- Being sick all week, no appetite
Successes:
- I hid my scale so I didn't weigh myself the entire week
- I walked to the gym both times I went!1 -
