Having suffered with a cold all week, bronchitis made me short of breath so I couldn't exercise much and my medicine mad me voraciously hungry so I ate more than I should have. But I'll be content that I lost one little pound as at least I didn't gain.7 -

Total lost in challenge: 3.5 lbs
I have to admit I was a little worried about losing any weight this week as I had a hysterectomy on Oct 31st and I gained 8.4 lbs in water weight overnight from the IV drip (thankfully only took me 5 days to get those lbs off). Plus I have to eat slightly more calories to help with healing and have not been able to be very active due to recovery.
I am super happy with my number so I might celebrate tonight with a turkey burger splurging with avocado and salsa toppings! Living it up healthy style. Hope everyone had a great week too9 -

Absolutely. Try a little seltzer water or club soda with lemon or lime squeezed in or a dash of juice. You get your fizz with out all the extra calories.3 -

I have controlled what I ate a little bit better this week. I didn't visit the gym as often as I should have, but I did notice I use A TON of sugar in my coffee....so this weeks goal is to cut down on my sugar intake.... Good luck everyone!

My plan, which I'm dropping here to hold future-me accountable, is to be diligent about prioritizing exercise (my program is good, I'm just not doing it!), make my sedentary job having self hit 10,000 steps a day, and track my food. I need to cut way back on the booze and junk food. Once in a while is fine, but sitting on my butt, drinking beer, and eating chips on the regular does not a healthy body make.
Oct 24: 128 (followed plan this weekend, but GOOD LORD it was challenging. So many tasty treats available!)
Oct 31: (skipped. Real talk: I couldn't bring myself to get on the scale. I fell of the wagon *hard* last week.)

Happy Monday Everyone!! Lot of amazing losses! I gained last week. I lost a little this week. I know it's hard to keep momentum sometimes esp. during holidays but as long as we are making better choices "most" of the days we should be good.

10/17 138.6
10/24 140.2
10/31 136.6
11/7. 137.6
My goal was to maintain my loss, and my body held onto another pound instead. This week maybe I can get back down to 136.6 again. Bought shorts off the clearance rack for my trip to Hawaii in December. Ended up buying size 2's. So, that was a pleasant surprise. Really just looking to lose a few more pounds and tone my belly.

GREAT JOB! 5 pounds in 2 weeks is outstanding.
