From a certified gym rat to a total couch potato in a span of 3-4 years gaining 60 pounds to my ideal body weight. I feel so ashamed how I've let myself go. I'm vowing 2017 is finally the year that I will redeem myself. I'm ready!
Yay! for jumping back into a healthy lifestyle! Let the shame go. It's taking energy that could be better spent on planning tomorrow.1 -
I cannot get these quoting boxes to work right.0

I can't figure out how to get back to all the wonderful people who responding positively to my 2.5 lb. loss last week. I was feeling kind of frustrated because I lost that 2.5 in the first 3 days and when I weighed in on Friday I was still there - 2.5 loss and no more - even though I stuck to my 1200 calories a day every day and fulfilled my minimum exercise quota every day. Your positive encouragement helped me back to looking at the positive (loss of 2.5) instead of focusing on the negative (3 days at that weight).
So...thanks you guys!

I'm checking in a little early because I'm starting night shifts tomorrow and that always throws my readings around a bit.
Starting weight: 180.2
Goal weight: somewhere around the 145lb mark
Current weight: 176.5
Weight loss this week: 0.5lb
Total weight lost: 3.5 lb
This week's successes: I'm actually quite happy with this week's weight loss because just after my last post I shot back up a good few pounds (Christmas weight/sodium/water) so I'm quite happy to have lost that + lost a little extra. This weeks success = having faith that the long and slow route will work. Just keep going.
This week's challenges: night shifts this week. They're always awkward because I usually end up eating an extra meal coming on and off nights + extra snacks during the night = not good for weight loss. May end up relaxing my calorie goal for a couple of days to accommodate. But I'm hoping as long as I stay under maintenance that I'll see a slow weight drop.
