This week's weight change: -.4
Total weight loss: 31
Two weeks since I logged in and I'm happy to see a loss. We were spared with minimal hurricane damage and spent a couple days clearing downed trees. Then a trip to see kids and grandkids. Now back to normal for 5 weeks till the next trip.
Managed to keep my intake under control for the most part. I have a weakness for baked goods and anything peanut butter. That bag of peanut butter cups disappeared quickly.
DH has continued to drop pounds with me so I surprised him with a new tux for his birthday. He was so excited he now wants to go shopping with me for a nice evening dress. Plus I tried on all of mine and they are now too big!
With the mornings cooler now we will start bike riding again.

Hello week 2!!!!
Starting weight: 181.2
Current weight: 178.2
Goal weight: 154 (my first goal)
Total weight loss this week: 3
Total weight loss for challenge: 3
This weeks success: I joined a few challenges which has really helped with motivation! I've logged all my food with a focus on protein!!! I was able to work out more! Really it's because I feel like I'm making it a routine to be healthy! Which is great! The challenges clearly help me so I'm going to keep it up!
Next weeks challenges: keeping up with my successes! I was able to really get into a routine at the end of the week because I closed all the time. Now I'm going to be opening which means I'm at work at 5:30 am. Hopefully I can make a routine for my opening shifts and mid shifts that get me the same results as last week!
See you next week hopefully with another loss! 5 -

Goal weight: 175
Last week weight: 196.0
This week weight: 191.6
This week loss: 4.4
Total weight lost: 34.8
This weeks successes:
Well, obviously weight wise it has been a sucessfull week. The reason for the big drop was loss of fluid retention mostly. I had been eating more carbs than usual, I had been working outdoors a lot and I had not been drinking as much water as I should have. This week I have eaten up to my calories all week, exercised and watched what I ate and drank better: more water, vegetables, and fruit; less chocolate and other carb loaded food.
I wanted to be at 38 or more pounds lost this week. I am tempted to go low for a few weeks and get back to my weight loss equaling the number of weeks. However I am afraid I will not be sucessfull if I try that and that the process will have negative consqeuences. I have been eating my exercise calories. This week I did not. I may just cut into those calories for a bit as long as I am not overtired. Eat back some but not as much.
It all focuses around control. I have to keep wresting control back from events - like broken horses during solar eclipse weekends, hurricanes, and work drama. It is worth the fight every time because I have lost 35 pounds this year. I am on my way to losing 52 pounds in a year. I feel so much better and I do so much more.
