I know how you feel, Connie. Same happens to me. But this kind of fluctuation is going to happen, as you well know! Seems like you are doing well in general ... and that gives me hope, too!2 -

I am the same. If we lose fat we want to shout from the roof tops. Gain and the silence is deafeningtypeitdaily wrote: »When I gain weight I go quiet in my challenges. I'm going to try not to do that this time.

Start date: 7 Jan
Start weight: 79kgs
Goal weight: 65kgs
Current weight: 78kgs
Loss: 1kg
Success: lost a bit of the Xmas blubber. I cycled over 100kms during the week
Challenges: staying within my calorie limit. After so much exercise, I pigged out on junk on 3occasions. Finding it hard to get the balance right.
I keep forgetting to drink water. Yesterday I made a real effort I drink about 3 or 4 litres of water (summer here. Temperature in the 90's in your scale (38 deg C). I sweated a lot and amazingly I was .2 kg down in one day. It also helped me control my appetite.
I'm just battling to still lose 2kgs gained over Christmas. Man, how easy does it come back on? It just shows you that even maintenance requires effort and diligence.
Have a great week everyone.2 -
A little motivation for a Sunday morning:
This is a journey. We will get off track sometimes; we will lose our way but as long as we stay focused on that end goal, we will overcome. We will be fitter, stronger and far more healthy than we were on 1st January.
The journey of 1000 miles begins with the first step. Good luck everyone4 -
Darn, Wish I had seen this challenge sooner! Way to go everyone!! I`ll keep rooting for you all to make it to -52lbs this year!

AGREE! I have been on this Challenge the past two years it has taught me that I need to keep focused on my Diet and exercise if I want to lose ONE POUND. Especially at age 69!
The past two years I have lost 37# and 43#, I didn’t reach the -52# BUT I’m -80# over past two years!
My total loss is -185 over past five years! I have been on WW since January 2013.
Quite a WLJ from 376# at age 65 to close to my High School football weight back in 1966 Before most of you were born!
All I can say is
DO IT WHILE YOU’RE YOUNG!6 -

The weekend is a bit of a rest from more intense workouts.
Saturday is some beginner Yoga and a longish walk (distance / time determined by what's for dinner).
Sunday is just a leisurely walk, so I've made it veggie day to keep the calories low, nutrients high and filling enough with fiber & water. Unsweetened hot teas are also very helpful for feeling satisfied, getting more water and some phytonutrients.
My body feels happy and energetic. 2 -
