Week 2 —
Start Weight:205.5

A positive thought I had this week was: I made it through without giving up. It was a rough week.
A healthy snack/meal I chose this week was: Perfect Bars. They are protein bars that I can actually eat.
My most effective workout this week was: Tai Chi. It helped keep me sane when my stress got off the chart.
Comments: (Please share any additional information if you'd like) Some weeks suck. I just have to remember that any weight less is a win. Not giving up is a win.5 -
Week 2 —
Start Weight: 138.4 lbs
Challenge Goal Weight: 130.0 lbs
Weigh-in #1: 138.4 lbs
Weigh-in #2: 134.8 lbs
A positive thought I had this week was: this loss wasn’t water weight (maybe some of the holiday stuff falling off)
A healthy snack I chose this week was: carrots and hummus
My most effective workout this week was: my lifting workout on Wednesday. I was able to focus and add in band work.
I was only able to lift once last week. This week I’m going to try and get to it at least twice but hopefully 3x. I want to go running twice this week as well. I am still loving Bikini Body Mommy and how it makes me feel. Oh and I’ve given myself permission to indulge in ONE “treat” a day to curb my sweet tooth obsession. I’m hoping to at least maintain this week. That’s me being humble.3 -

Your soup does sound lovely. Could you share the recipe, please? Thanks!1 -
https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/spinach-sweet-potato-lentil-dhal
Hi, this should be the link to the recipe. I used olive oil and substituted yellow split peas for the red lentils. I cooked the split peas for about 30 mins before I added them to the other ingredients as they take longer to cook than red lentils. I eat it as a stew (casserole) but you could add extra liquid and have it as a soup - either blended or chunky. Hope to enjoy it! Any problems with the link let me know and il type it out (lazy!!).0 -
Two weeks in the books!
Week 2 —
Start Weight: 304
Challenge Goal Weight:274
Weigh-in #1: 304.2
Weigh-in #2: 300.0
A positive thought I had this week was: Weight is going down total!
A healthy snack/meal I chose this week was: Eating out I got a Philly cheesesteak and ate only the insides, not the bread. Then I passed on dessert which my sister-in-law got my favorite.
My most effective workout this week was: Walking8 -
Start Weight: 197
Challenge Goal Weight:
Weigh-in #1: 194.2
Weigh-in #2: 193.2
A positive thought I had this week was: I've done this before, and I can do it again. I can't rely on anyone, no one can help me, I have to do this for myself, and I can do it.
A healthy snack/meal I chose this week was: I usually eat pretty well, so I'm happy that I've stuck through two weeks of a very clean, straight diet...no cheating! I did find a new yogurt replacement...Elli Quark! It's like yogurt, but it's cheese, and it's delicious. I still love yogurt (Greek), but it's a nice change.
My most effective workout this week was: Spin class! I also started weight training again, so hopefully I'll start seeing some of those effects soon.
Comments: I went to one yoga class last week, which is great. I need to start planning that back into my schedule more regularly. So that's the goal for next week! Add at least one yoga class for stretching and calming the mind.1 -

Start Weight: 80.4kg
Challenge Goal Weight: 75kg
Weigh-in #1: 80kg
Weigh-in #2: 80.6 Kg - new scales
A positive thought I had this week was: it’s a number, nothing more or less - third set of scales and these measured everything.
A healthy snack I chose this week was: 10 cashew nuts - enough to keep me going
My most effective workout this week was: yoga - I think I’ve actually had a bug or something, it have religiously done 30 mins yoga every day apart from yesterday ( flight home and essay deadline)
