      My numbers

      05/08/2016 - 223.8
      12/08/2016 - 217.8

      Lost 6 lbs but as this was my first week, expect that this is mostly water. Still chuffed though.

      Not nearly where I want to be, but not much of a gain either. Next week will be better.

      Yes you can.
      2weeks ago, I had such a negative mindset, I believed I would not be able to lose the weight...what kept me going was my resolve to 'Never give up... no matter what I feel.'
      Today I believe I can...these feelings come, and go....keep plugging away at your resolve no matter what
      'Just do it' to quote Nike.

      Hey Guys,
      So I just weigh myself and I noticed I lost way too much weight this past week. I think I have to stop exercising as much and add more carbs to my diet. I really want to be in between i.e not losing too much and not gaining. This struggle is real. Lolz. Anyways thumb's up to week 2.

      I'm new to this and wondering if there is a place that we check in?
      Are there discussions going on? If so, I'd like to talk about how we're doing.
      Anybody there?
