Going more deeper into my diet changes. Enjoying the wholemeal bread, rice, etc. Eating a lot more vegetables,
eating more fruit, enjoying more fish in my diet. I got deeper motivation this week from watching a couple
of obese programs where people lost weight. Watching them sweat, cry, be in pain helps me realize I'm not the only person in the world who has done this.
I'm feeling stronger and more determined every week.

This weeks success: cycled 3 times over 100kms again. I went on low carb as I discussed last week. I didn't feel lethargic at all, in fact, I think I had more energy. I'm not keto but probably having 60-80 grams of carbs a day. Just protein, veg, Greek yogurt for breakfast and no potato, rice, bread, alcohol, snacks or junk food at all. I feel fantastic. I am very determined. I was under my calorie goal for 8 days straight. That is a record for me. 4 -

This week's successes: Lost what I had gained the week before and then some more, a lot more! I ate really well this week and stayed within my calories. Daily Yoga with Adriene
This week's challenges: I wasn't able to be really active, I had a bad tooth ache a day and now I'm on antibiotics. I'm also having allergies and it rained all week end (which never happens by where I live) -> biking in the rain isn't super ideal...So not great exercise-wise.
I'm gonna visit my parents in Paris for a week starting on Wednesday! Yey! I was extra good this week because I know next week is going to be tough. I'll get to see all my childhood friends :-) And I have to work so I won't be able to be super active... but I'll do my best. Will weigh in a little late next week. Hoping I can minimize the damage.
Have a great day you bunches of losers!

It could be the weight training...after you work out, muscles fill with water to aid in recovery. Try not to officially weigh in after a weight training workout...wait a day or so and drink your water!5 -

Starting weight: 186.0 (Jan 1, 2018)
Goal weight: 135

This week's successes: Getting up at 4:55am each weekday to ensure I get my morning routines done. Not eating out after work or stopping for fast food despite not having any kitchen appliances for a couple days.
This week's challenges: I didnt' get up early over the weekend. I find if I don't get up early, I don't work out. If I don't work out, I don't feel as inclined to say no to temptations. So, I had nachos and a cheeseburger at a basketball game, a cookie and a bag of movie theater popcorn on Sunday. My low weight of 173.4 on Friday crept back up to 175.6 today - salt and water gain, no doubt. I need to love doing Yoga as much as I enjoy running Couch to 5K.

This week's successes: Exercising every morning this week, and staying within calorie limit on Friday, when celebrating a friend's birthday included high-calorie junk food.

I used to binge regularly in the past and am doing much better, but it seems like I still have trouble with it every few weeks or so. Feeling pretty disappointed right now since my eating habits this weekend erased all weight loss I accomplished earlier in the week and now I'm at 0 lbs lost for this week. Seeing all of your updates and successes is making me feel less discouraged though. 7 -

I also tried new machines at the gym. It’s easy to get stuck in a routine that you like. I have started deadlifts, squats and a few others. I really think it has helped me turn things around.dembkogirl wrote: »Starting weight: 278 (11/1/17)
