    Highest Weight Ever 234
    Starting Weight August 2017 212
    Goal weight 150
    Weight 1/1 189.2
    Weight 1/8 186
    Weight 1/15 (on vacation, didn't weigh)
    Weight 1/22185.6
    Weight 1/30 183.2
    Weight 2/5 185.4
    Weight 2/12 184.0

    I am 52 years old, five foot two inches and I work a sedentary job.

    Yesterday I weighed in at the 183 again. I wish it had stuck! I did much better over the weekend, but I did make cupcakes for a friend's birthday and ate a couple! Usually I have not been too tempted when baking, but somehow this weekend it was harder!

    I had a very inactive day yesterday, not leaving my house and actually getting less than 3000 steps all day! BUT ODDLY - my injured foot hurts more today than it has in a couple of weeks. I wonder if it is because I wore slippers in the house and the injured toe wasn't supported like it is in regular shoes.

    My goals for this week include continuing to meet my step goal, yet trying to honor my injured foot (balance!)
    Keeping under my calorie goal daily.

    cabman......try an apple for a night snack, sounds dumb I know, but the munching and biting required takes quite a bit of effort...and its really rewarding somehow..! I'm rather addicted to them for that reason,,, plus they taste insane when they have been in the fridge.

    Keep pushing yourself...you can do more than you realize.

    ps...just to make you laugh,, I always take the apple sticker (that is normally on the apple skin) and put in on my nose....then eat my apple and look at my husband and say "what?" Lol just to make him have a big of a chuckle....

    I'm in. Just joined MFP today and am looking for daily motivation. A little about me...48 soon to be 49 female, 5' 5", been overweight all my life, type 2 diabetic on insulin trying to eat low carb and get in more activity. My all time highest weight was 243 in 2015, currently at 194.8.

    So...
    Starting weight: 194.8 - 2/13/2018 (I weigh myself daily but will only post weekly results)
    Goal weight: 150 - 1/1/2019
    Total weight loss: 44.8

    I can do this, I just need some support! Looking forward to posting and getting to know others!!!

    @mizzhunybee
    WELCOME! When I started my journey in 2013 I was T2D on Rx meds and 376# and 65 yo!

    Now I’m off all Diabetes Rx meds thanks to new Lifestyle. I’m only four pounds away from my WW GW of 184#

    I used this Challenge the past two years and lost 37# and 43# by TRYING to lose a pound a week! It helped me to really focus on a daily and weekly basis.
