    Successes/struggles this week: I normally weigh in on Saturday so I completely forgot about weighing in mid-week. It has been a gorgeous, hot, sunny week so my mood has been elevated and relaxed. Amount of sleep improved and was more consistent. Unfortunately, I sustained an injury and that slowed me down a bit.

    Weight -/+ this week: -1 lbs
    Weight -/+ this month: -2 lbs

    Successes/struggles this week: I'm actually surprised that I lost a whole pound this week, since last week I was really lacking motivation. I hardly did much exercise and I "treated" myself a little when I didn't earn it, lol, But after a rough two week struggle to get back on track after Memorial Day, I'll take the loss!! I did manage to follow one workout from Fitness Blender on YouTube- A 20 minute cardio/kickboxing vid-and even with modifications and not even being able to do all of the last circuit, my whole body was sore the next two days! (Hence the lack of other exercise). I don't know if I'll be able to lose 3 more pounds in 2ish weeks, I've found my usual rate is .8 per week, but I'm certainly going to keep trying!

    Weight -/+ this month:

    Successes/struggles this week: Kind of lost a lot of motivation lately, the first 20ish pounds came off fast now it's definitely slowed down. Couple that with a million things going on and a general feeling of malaise and exhaustion, I just haven't wanted to do anything.

    Successes/struggles this week: This week I have been dealing with a health issue that cropped up - and I had a bad reaction to the meds the doctor gave me initially. Made for a weird week of not eating half the time, so I'm hoping that getting back into a routine this week won't make me gain!!

    This will be my last post. I have been taking part in this challenge for about a year now. It was a brilliant motivator. However, I feel like it's time to switch to maintainance, for the time being at least. I'll defo come back when/if I set my goal to lose again.

    Hugs to you all xx

    Weight -/+ this month: -1 kg

    Successes/struggles this week: I am constantly tired because I simply don't sleep enough; that makes me vulnerable and I give in to sweets and keeps me from wanting to exercise. I had a pizza last night shared with my son so I know there is some water retention. It could be worse but obviously also a lot better. I still think I will make it to my goal this time!

    Great that you are staying so healthy at your young age. I am 69 and wish I had known about MFP at your age.

    Yes you can. Give it your best effort this one week. It does make us feel so good when we reach these mini goals. And they all add up.
