This weeks Loss: 3.4
Total Weight Lost 30.9
Weekly Goal: Continue getting up early to workout before work. Continue trying some new workouts to find a new program.
This Week's Successes: 30lbs DOWN! That feels really real. I got back into the swing of things after a couple weeks of half assing it. Still on track to hit the 52lbs/52 weeks which feels nice. Lots of people are noticing that I've lost weight, which is nice, but sometimes awkward.
This Week's Challenges: Had a little tummy bug on thursday and did not get to workout. Looking forward to getting out this weekend and kicking butt in a steps challenge.

Current weight: 192.2 lbs
Total weight loss so far: 34.2 lbs
This week's success: The scales finally went down!!! I read a great MFP blog post about plateaus too which has helped me see the big picture (it's here if anyone wants to read it: blog.myfitnesspal.com/the-upside-of-a-weight-loss-plateau/)
This week's challenge: I started working out at a gym. I did my first workout this week (cardio circuit) and it was brutal. The aim this week is to do the same circuit on Tuesday and Thursday.
This weeks' quote: "Motivation is what gets you started; Habit is what keeps you going"

I somehow pulled a muscle in my leg early this last week and could put no pressure on it for a couple of days. DH even had to help with getting me in and out of bed where I spent 2 whole days a large portion of the next 3 days. Today I'm moving much better but slowly.
This week's challenges: Not gaining weight while I healed. DH doesn't cook so meals for a couple of days consisted of sandwiches and instant oatmeal. Definitely an incentive to heal faster. Will need to be careful when I return to the gym in a couple of days as I don't want to reinjure my leg.
This week's successes: I did manage to lose a little this week. I'm finally in the healthy/normal BMI range! This is the lowest weight I have been in decades. Logging everything and knowing that I will be posting my loss/gain on this challenge has made this weight loss journey a success for me.2 -

Weekly update:
I was having a great week. Started weighing 199 plus or minus and felt very good going into the weekend. Work started our summer schedule, which is four ten-hour days. I made sure I still got my exercise daily. Then the first three-day weekend happened. It was a beach weekend for hubby and I. The hotel had an included full breakfast buffet and a manager’s happy hour each night. I guestimated as best I could my calories and got lots of beach walking in. Calories overall I came out with CI < CO, but I have this half pound of what I firmly believe is water weight. Last week I said I would be “swelling up like a puffer fish pulled from the water.” I’ll blame it on that.
Last Week's challenges check-in
Challenge was to survive another weekend. Did Ok – but did not lose. Also had: Pre-log meals. Stay under calories, including exercise calories, for the week. Stay under for the week? Yes! 
But Sat and Sun no pre log . 
Water Water Water not enough on the weekend
70,000+ steps for the week 93,704 steps Keep the focus on intake & control - tried not too bad
This Week's life challenges
Have to go to best practices this week and make sure I stay on track. We are starting the fiscal year close cycle at work so my play time indulgences are over for a while.- Water Water Water
- Do a work out video a friend posted
- Bed by 11 each weeknight.

Day 96
Starting weight: 308.6 lbs (140 kg)
Goal weight: About 260 lbs (118 kg). Eventually a six pack (The heavier I reach this goal - the better).
Current weight: 279.5 lbs (126.8 kg)
Total weight lost: 29.1 lbs (13.2 kg)
This week's successes: It's more of a "this month successes". I'm down 6 pounds (2.8 kg) for the past month.
This week's challenges: Well, a month have gone by since my surgery in May. Getting better by the day. Haven't been in the gym for about 40 days now. I'm considering a light workout today so I can see in what condition I am. I'm pretty satisfied with the 6 pounds I've lost for the past month, considering that I'm still struggling with my diet and not being able to train. I hope I'll start logging again in MFP soon. Broke my 70 day streak a while ago, but with the poor food after the surgery I didn't find any meaning to log it.
P.S. Aside of that - I got my degree two days ago and I'm very happy. After four hard years I'm an еngineer! WOOHOO!4 -
