Count me in I've fallen off the wagon big time and haven't been eating healthy or exercising in over 2 months. Hopefully this will push me to get back into the swing of things!

I would like in if it's not too late! I have three goal weights - 125, 120, and 115. I'm working to get to my first goal weight by the end of August. I have lost 7 pounds so far in the past 6 weeks but still have 15 more pounds to go.

Great weigh ins so far.
I have had a really good week of working out. I have done 4 days of Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and I am nearly finished week 2 of c25k so I am feeling good. The scales only showed a loss of 0.6kg (1.3lbs) but I am down over 2kg (4.6lbs) of body fat so I am really pleased. If you have body fat scales I urge you to measure this as I would have felt a little disheartened if I hadn't been.
I am still struggling with eating. I make healthy dinners but I am snacking a lot. I am not working at the moment and I think that I just have too much time on my hands! I am definitely going to be working on my snacking this week and trying to eat more at meal times so that I don't feel the need to snack.
Please everyone... even if you gained or didn't get the result you wanted - check in, own your result and just vow to be better next week. But you won't do better if you don't hold yourself accountable.

on vacation!
Great work everyone!
(Thanks 2young4this for the accountability prompt - I wasn't going to put today's hoping that last 0.2 might disappear overnight but I'm glad I did, hey should make next weeks a little easier if it does go...)
Also for snacking, I don't snack so much anymore. I read about being comfortable with hunger - I know that doesn't work for everyone (or for me some of the time!) So some days if it's not too far to lunchtime I'll just be hungry and now it doesn't bother me as much as it used to. I buy toddler fruit snacks that are about 48kcal pure fruit in really small pieces that take ages to eat as well!6 -

I wanted to add: had a heavy cold this week, crap sleeps, and couldn't do any workouts which usually means I don't manage to stay under. I'm disappointed though..
So many of you have done amazing, inspiring! 5
