    Weight -/+ this week: -3.6
    Weight -/+ this month: -2.8

    Successes / struggles this week: I was in a step challenge last week and that helped me to stay motivated. For the week I got over 107,000 steps. The previous week I had 76,876. I went back to drinking a lot of water. Have a bad blister on my heal, so the steps have to be done wearing flip flops, so once that is better I can hop back on the treadmill. This week I want to get in a few strength training and ab exercises. 4 times this week. Will have to be after work, because I can not get out of bed.

    Successes / struggles this week: yesterday I had an upward fluctuation with my weight (dairy bloat from an ice cream indulgence the night before). I refused to log that weight knowing it wasn't accurate and today it was back where it had been all week. Still on that steady downward trend.

    Successes / struggles this week: Worst month ever, since I started counting calories. Going to go way, way out on a limb and say it's the exercise? I've definitely stepped up my exercise game this month, and while I'm not making "mad gainz", I'm surely getting stronger and that dense muscle fiber has to reside somewhere... At any rate, losing is losing and I'll take it. I'm on the "bonus" segment of my journey, anyway, having surpassed my initial weight loss goal. If I stay this weight but keep getting fitter and stronger I'll be quite happy with myself.

    Successes / struggles this week: Being sick really paid off!! Still not feeling great, so it is easy to stay in my calories for the day. But I have no energy to workout. Hopefully I will be better soon.
    I hit my goal weight!! Almost out of the 200's!!!
