Honestly I'm really upset about all of this but I made a doctor's appointment. Maybe I will still be able to reach my goal weight. Going to go on short walks without my dog a few days a week.

    Successes / struggles this week:
    It's all the beer garden's fault! Even though I biked 45 minutes each way on Saturday, nothing can overcome those pints of high ABV hoppy bliss. Monday's may not have been the smartest weigh in day to pick.

    Over the last month I am still up at there was a two week diet holiday, slowly working back to where I was. Expect to break 130 again mid week. Recently upped my calories by 100 per day to 1300. While I am love having the occasional snack or adding cheese to my meals again it is slowing my progress more than I thought it would.

    Successes / struggles this week: I'm happy to say that I think a lot of my weight gain over my vacation last week was water weight. I'm back down to 250.2lbs and so I'm editing my goal weight to reflect this change. I'm happy with my activity and my eating this week. I ran 3 times, cross trained 2 times (including 2.5 hours in the gym on Saturday), and did strength training 2 times.

    Successes / struggles this week: At the beginning of May I dropped like 7 pounds solely from CICO and making healthier choices. Now I've started lifting and doing cardio regularly and the number on the scale went up a pound and has fluctuated up and back down to 174.5 since then. I know about water retention in muscles when starting new exercise. I know it's still too early to make big judgements. And I know that the scale is only half the story, but the last few days have left me really fighting against discouraging myself. I feel so hungry and grumpy all the time since I've started going to the gym, and not seeing even a hint of positive change is messing with my willpower. Been gaining and losing the same 10ish pounds for such a long time now and I just want to be under 170 for the first time in forever. :(

    Drank too much Saturday night so I craved a bunch of hangover food on Sunday. That's the hardest part for me once I eat poorly I mentally give up.

    I have struggled to get those last few lbs off but they are some kind of stubborn. Eating out is a real challenge. I had a work event happy hour last week: bad food and good beer, it did me in. And I just collapsed over the weekend and ate a pizza. by myself. a large. I don't know why I did that. sigh.. back on the horse today, right?!Good luck to everyone!

    Coming off of a two week diet break for my wedding and mini vacation. Back to the grind now!

    Main struggle - alcohol. Especially with the summer patio season, the social schedule is packed. And keeping up the strength to avoid free nachos after sports.


    Diary isn't open but will log daily for June, add me as a friend to see the diary.

    Congratulations!!!!!
