    Starting weight: 268.3
    Goal weight: 255.0

    Lots of walking, I want an average of at least 15.000 steps/day.

    12 days and 185.600 steps later (15.467 steps per day), I'm at 264.6. My weight suddenly went up for a couple of days, I guess it was water rentention. But now it's dropping again, so I'm good.

    love to join his challenge
    current weight is 236 hoping to be 226 by the end of July. I'm not very active right now but I do have some walking tapes. Did decide to wear my fit bit to see how much I actually do. It ranges from 6000 to 8000 steps a day. Hoping to join a gym for aerobic classes and water aerobic.. Good luck all.

    CW: 154.4...

    I'm discouraged already. I'm so sore from the gym or dance class this week but I'm still back up to where I was on Tuesday. My wedding is 3 months from today :( I can't fathom walking down the aisle feeling like I do right now :(


    Starting weight: 155.4
    Current weight: 152.4
    Goal weight: 145.4

    I'm usually up on Mondays from being bad on the weekends... hopefully the number is smaller tomorrow, even if by a little bit. I'm not feeling very positive about this 10 pounds.... :s

    I had to reevaluate my caloric goal. Turns out, I was eating too much. Who knew *insert sarcasm*
    I went up 3# last week, I'm done 2.

    6/25 SW: 197lbs
    GW: 187

    7/2: 197 No pounds lost, but I took my measurements and I lost 5 inches all over my body. Since that's the case, I'm not so upset about the numbers staying the same this week.

    7/10: 196.8 Went up and finally back down. I actually had to recalculate my calories because I just wasn't eating enough. Hopefully now I'll be able to lose a bit more and a bit quicker.

    Today the scale says 155.8. :(

    When is it time for a new scale? I've had mine almost 10 years and I feel like it just picks random numbers...

    I'd say after ten years it's time for a new one. I bought a new one recently because it wasn't digital. I find I can't weigh myself everyday because it gets discouraging. You can do this.

    You're right. It is discouraging but then I think if I had only weighed myself today, and not yesterday also it would be even worse because today I apparently weigh more than my starting weight and yesterday I was 3 pounds under!

    UGH

    Should've taken measurements. But I don't feel like my clothes are fitting any better either... :(

    Thank you for your encouragement. <3

    Aiming for hot yoga 3 times week, less beer >.<
    Tracking in MFP everyday, walking during lunch and making healthier food choices, less chips, cookies, soda.

    My Doctor from Glenwood Clinic told me if scale is 3 points away from the weight taken at doctors office it's still good. I got rid of mine before I started this project.

    Swimming, walking--getting 15,000 steps a day
    Logging my food

    Update:
    current 145.4
    I wish it were more but I think it's been realistic.
    I am doing great at swimming but not well at walking. I have only gotten 15,000 steos a few days and there have been several days last week I didn't get 10,000.
    Revised step goal: 10,000

    Took me a bit to get the calories figured out and stop gaining. Slowly losing the weight now. Obviously won't make the GW of 135, but, encouraged to see it finally going down.

    7/17: 197.4 had a few bad days but I've got a new schedule and more opportunities to move throughout the day so if I focus on my calories and macros, I think I can get alot closer to my goal than I am now.

    I know I think it's purely because I'm just starting g, you always lose more those first few weeks that's why I added a few on top. How are you going?
