    I'm in again. I had a slight gain last month (1.5) largely due to two weeks of holidays (one at an all-inclusive), so looking forward to a more regular routine/logging.

    NSG: stay under/close on sodium, drink 3-4 liters of water a day.
    Sodium is my arch nemesis. I have the HARDEST time staying under my numbers there, and always seem to go over a day or two before weigh in days.

    Good luck, everyone!! Let's show this month who's boss!

    Original starting weight - August 21st : 75kg -165lbs
    April Starting weight - 55.3kg - 121.66lbs
    April goal: 52kg - 114lbs
    Ultimate goal: 52kg - 114lbs Maybe 50kg.

    Realised this week I probably dont need to go down to 50kg, am pretty happy with where I am at, just 3kg more should be perfect. Old scales last time I lost weight made me 2kg less than new scales. they were wrong. So was actually 52kg not 50kg at my lightest. I'm only 152cm tall.

    1st: 55.3kg/121.66lbs

    Going fishing Sunday! Checking in!

    Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233

    Average from March 26th to April 2: 221.0

    Total cumulative loss: 12 lbs.

    An unexpected take-out meal last night totally derailed my calorie control yesterday, but today is a new day. Usually I can work with any situation and control portions to stay within my daily allowance, even in my food-centric workplace. Monday was employee potluck, Friday was a colleague's birthday luncheon, Tuesdays every week it's bagels or doughnuts. I have figured out how to partake without blowing it, and it is doable.

    In more positive news, I think my morning walking of laps around the warehouse has inspired my boss to create a fitness area in the warehouse, he is bringing in a stationery bike, I offered my treadmill that is taking up space and I don't use it lately. He said we could use our whole 30 minutes of lunch break for fitness time and eat lunch at our desks on the clock. Sweet!

    Ultimate goal: 180.

    Until next week.....

    Move more, eat less.

    Looking forward to April. Today marks 90 days since I started on MFP. It's been a good journey so far. I think I found the right balance between my intake and losing weight. I'm taking on this challenge in 90 days intervals which is enough time to see significant changes.

    Total loss for April - (?) not yet :neutral:

    Tips or Habits I must form:
    - Not snacking late at night
    - Not snacking in general unless hungry.

    April 1st: 131 lbs

    However, snacking late at night is what I have to really change.
    I am so in for this challenge! My ultimate goal weight was the weight I used to weigh a year ago. I don't want to be a statistic (people who regained the weight) and I don't want to be obese ever ever again. :smiley:
