    To update my last post, I have copied the template to my notes on my phone (I'm a list maker so I use the note pad often). I can update it weekly and then copy, paste it in.

    Also - How do y'all keep track of when your last entry was so you can amend it the next week?

    I am bookmarking the page. This only works I think if you use it on your computer, not the mobile app.

    Starting weight: 79kgs
    Goal: 65kgs
    Last weeks weight: 77.3kgs
    This week: 77.1kgs
    This week: Loss .2kg
    Total loss for February: 1.4kg
    YTD loss: 1.9kgs

    This weeks challenge: Facing confusion once again. I dropped a lot last week because I changed to low carb but I have stalled again. I doubt myself. Do I stay low carb? should I do low calorie? is keto the answer? I have come to the conclusion that I should stick to one style of eating for at least a month and trust the process. :(

    This weeks success: I have been quite determined and somewhat obsessed. Cycling for 40kms twice a week, putting in 2 weights sessions at the gym and walking the dogs on other days. No junk, no heavy carbs but for a little before the bike ride.

    I will power on for the month of February. In all honesty if I lose 1kg every month, I will get close to my goal weight by December. When one is down to losing the fat that has been on the body for 15 years, it does take a lot to move it.

    Height: 5'8"

    Starting Weight (on MFP 2/22/17): 310
    Total 2017 Weight Lost: 46
    Goal Weight: 135

    Starting Weight (1/1/18): 264
    Current Weight: 257.9
    Challenge 2018 Weight Lost: 6.1

    This week's successes: Lunch has been going really well - I find myself not snacking as much, and I've been sleeping better, which results in more energy to do more (limited) activity.

    This week's challenges: Dinner has not been going as well, mostly because I burned the roof of my mouth a few days ago so I can't have anything too hard, hot or chewy. That, coupled with the fact that I can still only do light exercises makes this process much harder than it should be, but I'm just going one day at a time. At least I'm still in a calorie deficit everyday, even if it's not as much deficit as I'm aiming for.
