    Well I punched in a good day yesterday under calories and under carbs. And the scale thanked me this morning. So that makes for a good day. Onwards to another one.

    I believe I can I will

    Week 8 (posting a few days late... my weigh in day is still Monday, I just kept forgetting to post this week.)

    2018 Starting weight: 208.9
    Goal weight: 150
    Current weight: 202.7
    Weight lost this week: +0.2
    Total weight lost: 6.2
    This week's successes: Not too many, I guess I'm doing better with binging, I haven't binged in 2 weeks! And I've been able to maintain.
    This week's challenges: This last week and a half I've been pretty much off the wagon... I haven't binged but I've been barely logging food and eating a lot more sweets, and going from exercising 5-7 times a week to about 1. I am feeling better mentally though so I'm wanting to get back to logging food and exercising again.

    Hi all weigh in only Sat. but here to share I was tops best loser last night with a loss of 5.6 lbs. I did low carbs but not to low. In between 50 and 70. Fat eats fat. Who would of thought that. After 40 years of avoiding fat as much as I could here I am eating it of the spoon lol.

    @staceyvoba Great loss in two months. Keep up the good job.
    @it janaya Here's a hand hop back on the wagon.
    @Charloiseb Your doing great losing at a steady pace of 1.5 lbs a week.
    @Battykristen Looking good your down every week.

    So for me it's the start of a new week. And going to keep low carbing. And no whites. None. Having spaghetti on broccoli pretty good. Just changing my was of eating. the worst part is the sugar.

    See you all lighter.

    Weight 1/22185.6

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

    Still around 184 this week. Yesterday I dipped down to 183 again, but it's not sticking. Tonight I am doing a restaurant review, and I need to remind myself that I only need to TASTE the food, not eat the entire dish, even if it is good!

    Starting weight:118.2 kg

    1/11= 118.2
    1/18 = 117.5
    1/25 = 117.5
    1/30 = 115.6

    I believe its muscle gain instead of weight gain. Flogged my body since last saturday with exercise, at clean and within calories.. except Wednesday, but even then I was still under calories.



    This week's challenges: Stay strong and push forward, Im now stronger than I was back in January. This stupid plateau wont be the death of me.

    @kittygonzalez3511 I wouldn't worry to much with a .6 gain that is only fluctuation. You are doing great with your food and exercise.
