I have downloaded a weight trend app. And from now on I will be using the weekly trend weight rather than the daily fluctuations. It seems that the less I have to lose the more the difference in numbers.
Successes:
- 15,000 steps X 2 Days
- 10,000 steps X 5 Days
- Completed week 4 of my 30 day abs challenge
- Drank water up to and beyond daily goal.
struggles this week:
- lack of sleep is getting the better of me. Feeling tired and weak.
- Did not do any strength exercises with weights.
- Was invited to a friend's house for the day on Sunday and couldn't resist a couple high calorie snacks. I was still within goal however because I couldn't eat "filling" food it led to me being unsatified for the day.

Successes/struggles this week: I need to keep on my hydration, I did better this week, but I still have improvement. I struggled a little with nutrition - some days not eating enough and others, not eating the right things. I have to go grocery shopping to make sure I have fruit and veggies near me. I am a little nervous about this week because it is graduation week - a.k.a. lots of drinking and bad food. Wish me luck.5 -

Successes/struggles this week:
SO much happiness about this progression! I started trying to lose weight/get healthy back in February. Over all of February and March I felt like I wasn't making any real difference; my weight pretty much stayed the same the whole 2 months. Better than gaining, but a little discouraging nonetheless. In April I kicked things up a notch and lowered my calories and started regularly walking/following youtube fitness videos and it has payed off! This week I realized that it is very likely that I will ACTUALLY REACH MY GOALS for this month! Have the scale read 190 or under on my birthday (May 20th) and actually be under 190 by June 1!
No struggles are worth mentioning when success is just around the corner!

Successes/struggles this week
I really need to go through and read everyones comments, I feel like that will inspire me.
I had a great week gym wise. I went 5 days last week. Plus hit my steps on my fitbit most days. I struggle weekends and with coming into winter here in New Zealand we don't go far if the weather is bad on those days. But I felt great in regards to my exercise.
My eating was a bit up and down. Some great meals and some less great choices. But then again that is going to be the way isn't it. I appreciate that I can have a meal that isn't healthy and not let that be a "fall off the wagon" slip that sends me into a overeating binge type thing. I am grateful for how far I have come and I am grateful for how far I will go.
I didn't lose a huge amount but it was still a loss.5 -

Successes/Struggles this week: Woohoo! Almost back to where I started before the trip. Have another trip coming up, so I'm probably not going to reach the 172.0 goal before the trip. I'm going to amend it to 172.8. Not bad progress otherwise, I'm happy!5 -

Weight -/+ this month: -9.2lbs
Successes/struggles this week: weighing in a day early, because I'll be away with my boyfriend all weekend! No movement this week, which is fine, as I've already passed my goal for this month and have yet another week to maybe get a little more lost. My eating was fine, although being out all weekend and probably eating out for most meals I'm going to expect a gain for next week!
Again, work stress defeated my exercise motivation...I have 2 weeks off coming up and hopefully the daily exercising will motivate a routine!4 -

I'm not sure I'll reach my goal this month - our weekend away might have spoiled that, but I'm still happy with how I'm doing!
