    After 2 travel days and three days at Disneyland, this week I worked on eating right again. It was a struggle, as it always is with me. Exercise and water intake are not a problem. I struggle with the motivation to eat right. But I'm back on track now and plan to stay there now.

    Hi Everyone,

    I lost .2 lbs again this week. Not going to lie, it's rather discouraging to place so much focus and effort on doing all the right things and achieve such meagre results. Having said that, I will take a loss over a gain any day. But it's going to take a loooonnng time to reach my goal at this pace!

    Here are my stats:
    MFP Start: 238 lbs
    UGW: 140 lbs
    CSW: 205.8 lbs
    CGW: 185.8 lbs
    4/11: 200.8 lbs
    4/18: 200.6 lbs
    4/25: 200.4 lbs

    Loss for this Challenge: 5.4 lbs
    Yet to go for this Challenge: 14.6 lbs

    Have a wonderful week, all! o:)

    MFP SW: 215
    CSW: 146
    CGW: 135
    UGW: 130

    Week 1: 146.4
    Week 2: 144
    Week 3: 143.8

    Small loss but I think it's probably water retention. Too much caffeine and too much stress!

    It can be very disheartening to work so hard and not see more movement on the scale. I would really encourage you to measure yourself. Many times the scale is not showing grear progress but your body is changing. Some people like myself are turtles when it comes to weightloss. There are so many factors that play into it. Don't be discouraged, stay focused and you will see results. Hang in there!!

    CSW- 205.2
    CGW- 199.2
    UGW- 165 ?

    Week 1- 206.6 lbs
    Week 2- 207 lbs
    Week 3- 209.8 lbs

    I've been keeping up with the water, averaging 10-12 cups.
    Seeing the scale go up weekly is really messing with my head lately. Not sure how to work my way around that. It didn't effect me until later on with my last child, so it's starting early this time. I'm debating on weighing every other week or something just so I'm not tempted in restriction of calories, etc.

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Stop weighing weeky, try ever 2 weeks. Don't let the scale control you. Drink water, eat healthy thats the most important thing

    Thanks. I was debating on that. I think it'll help. I like keeping track of things, but I think right now it's doing more harm than good. (I'm halfway next week, so after that I'll start every other week. Just so things are a little more even for me. Lol.) I'm trying to be as healthy as I can, some snacks included. Going to start being a bit more active as well.

    Kinda on track though still slow. Not getting nearly enough water, need to be better. For some reason I still can't find the motivation to get back into working out. Might try just walking to start instead of jumping back into my yoga.
