    This week's successes and challenges: Nothing unusual this week. Apparently I am at maintenance even though I am 3ish lbs from goal :|

    My experience was also a few pounds away from GW in January, I got POed when someone said “maybe you reached you “Set Point “! I knew it was my problem, so I quit eating PB as snacking and adding 1/4 cup Grape Nuts with yogurt.

    I changed to New Snack! FF yogurt with frozen fruit I made GW 3/29!

    Sometimes you just need to try a change? So close, keep going you will make GW :wink:

    Woo hoo! Heading down again. I didn't do too badly yesterday except for eating sweets at an event, but I logged them truthfully! I did get kind of a bad start today.... I brought good, low carb foods for lunch and then bought a packet of Cheetos from the vending machine.... I forgot about the Monday meeting and it kind of threw me off and made me have to restart my day. I need to learn to not let little things get me off balance.

    Just a quick update from me:

    I have been doing a fear bit of road and track running, so have not been getting to the gym for a weigh in.
    However the cheap home scales have not shown much movement either way -
    floating around 82-84kg. (4-6 kg loss for 2018, 15-20kg loss for the past 6 months)
    I have been focus on achieving my fitness goal more than the weight of recent.

    I'm off overseas on vacation tomorrow, but have running shoes packed. And i will be away from my recent nemesis - the pantry. So plan this to be a positive for my goals.

    I will be back home before the end of April, when i will complete the 8km running event I have been doing the training for. After this i plan to re-focus on gym workouts and knock off a few more kg's.

    Well done to all those that have been progressing with their 1Lb per week or more, and those that are struggling keep at it, it will happen. I will be slightly behind by the time i return, but know that there is plenty of the year left to get back on track.

    Back in May for my weekly updates.
