    Sorry I know I'm late logging in! I've just been super busy with my finals. I haven't gone to the gym as yet but starting tomorrow I'm going to get back on it. I have been eating healthier throughout the week. On the plus side I lost a pound. I expected to either gain weight or maintain it.

    bad bad weekend ;) haven't been dieting/eating healthy properly for some time, so am hoping for a good start - might have set my goal a bit higher than I should, but I need something to aim for. Can I adjust it halfway through? ;)

    Fitness/Health Goals:
    (a) figuring out an achievable steps-per-day target once fitbit arrives, then sticking to it!
    (b) walking marathon distance on dedicated weekend walks with my pal (ca. 6miles per weekend)

    (d) taking lunches to work (healthy if possible)

    last week’s Fitness/Health Goals:
    (a) my average working day steps are around 7k, so I am aiming for 10k  haven’t managed them every day but getting there
    (b) DONE! I walked 6miles last weekend!
    (c) DONE this one too! doing good so far – and it shows!
    (d) did parts of this, think I brought lunch in for 3 days out of 4, so not too bad.

    next week’s Fitness/Health Goals:
    (a) get my daily 10k steps in – even on a weekend (or a rainy day)
    (b) keep going with that “walking marathon distance on dedicated weekend walks with my pal (ca. 6miles per weekend)”
    (c) am still tracking – it helps immensely
    (d) struggle with taking the lunches very much. Have to keep going!

    I am quite pleased with how much I was on track last week, and that the scales showed that as well. Can’t lose momentum now and need to keep at it!

    Not too big a gain so I wouldn't worry - looks like regular fluctuations to me. Keep up the awesome work and you'll see the results! :)

    Hello everybody.....I know I committed to this challenge and I have to say that I haven't checked in cause I was ashamed that I didn't lose any weight and had a rough week. But here I am to accept it and check in no matter what cause I need to own up.

    I'm trying to lock up all my daughters "bad" snacks so I can't eat in my sleep. Yes I eat in my sleep and for some reason only go after the unhealthy stuff.

    I hope I have lost at least 1 lbs before next check in.

    Oh and I would like to say congrats to all those who have lost last week keep up the great work.

    Hi All,

    I took some time off from the forum b/c I was feeling SO frustrated with my lack of loss, in fact going up a wee bit for four weeks in a row, but I've made some changes and finally see a change on the scale too. So, here's my update as of today:

    Start Weight (May 1st): 184
    Goal Weight (June 5th): 178
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 155

    Weigh-Ins

    May 1st: 184
    May 12th: 182
    May 15th: - I know I won't be able to weigh in this day, I'm traveling, but will update a bit later next week when I'm home.
    May 22nd:
    May 29th:
    June 5th:

    Fitness/Health Goals until the next weigh-in:
    -Continue with my plan to do at least 4 workouts/week. I feel really good when I get in some workout time, so I want to do this for myself.
    -Continue tracking my water intake each day. I know that I drink a ton of water, but actually tracking the amount has been really helpful. I just make a tic mark for each water bottle I finish and try to drink as much as I can :)
    -Continuing to make veggies my #1 priority for my meals. I like them, they make me feel great, and eating more of them seem to make a difference. So I'm on the veggie train!

    Hope all are doing well!

    Hi pinkheart32,
    Could you please share how you got to the point of loving to workout. I am hoping to feel that way too, so as you said working out will not be a chore?

    Health/Fitness Goals: Working on lowering my A1c which was 6.1 in April. I do not like to work out but do have a free gym available to me at work. The last 3 weeks have been hard staying on track calorie wise but I feel better about it now and beginning Monday will hit the gym for at least 30 minutes M-F. Plan is to not eat back those calories. Goal is to burn at least 300-500 calories each day. Would like to build up to 1 hour daily in the gym. Walk 3-5 miles on Saturday and Sunday.
