Ok! Now that I have "doable" numbers in front of me, I think I can do it. I just want to be out of the 160's again. It's been since Oct, when I was at 153 that I was at my lowest.2 -

@Tracie_Lord You're doing incredibly well! Could you share your strategy please? You can private message me if that's more comfortable.
I will happily share openly
I eat clean, non processed food and have a cheat day once a week. I also only eat refined carbs maybe once a week, (this week was a steak house and Saturday and we went to town - I was still full midday sunday! hahaha). I have ditched the gym for the time being about a month ago as found I have too much fat still to lose before I build muscle. I do go to aqua aerobics once a week but that's just for fun really
I calorie count but more to ensure I am getting enough as sometimes it is hard to get up to 1200 which I have as a minimum with maximum 1350, I eat lots of fruit to get up the calories. I log cheat days and holidays but have what I want - some days can be as high as 4000 cals with alcohol and the sort
My diary is open so please feel free to add me and take a peek if you want at how my diet is.
I also weigh daily but log weekly. This has helped me to learn my body more and also what effect salt and water has.
I drink about 2-3 litres of water a day.
Hope this all makes sense8 -
The scale may not be where I want it but I'm doing a lot of strength training with my cardio so I know I'm building muscle and losing weight. My workout clothes are fitting differently
I logged my goal of 6 workouts for the week which includes: Pilates, Yoga, KT Bell, DB Bell, Resistance Band exercises and Elliptical...best part no knee or back issues!
I ate within my calorie goal 4 of 7 days so room for improvement!

Total loss for April : 1.4 lbs
In-laws were visiting from out of town this weekend, so the scale went a little in the opposite direction. Better luck next week.4 -
Hi everyone. Forgot to post yesterday.
Original starting weight: 200lbs.
April goal weight: Whatever I can reach
Ultimate GW: 150-160lbs
April SW: 193.4lbs
4-8-18: 190lbs
4-15-18: 187.6lbs
Total loss so far: 5.8lbs
This challenge is just the kick in the butt I needed to get the scale moving again in the right direction. Happy to be making progress again. Let’s keep going people!4 -
Original starting weight - 220
April starting weight - 224
April goal - 219
Ultimate goal - 195
April 1 - 224
April 8 - 223.9
April 16 - 226.0 Really? What happened? All I know is that I ate two meals on Saturday, and Sunday I may have "snacked" a bit too much. I weigh as soon as I get out of the shower in the morning. Once I got to work my belly started churning and I had to ... well... go. So I may have lost a bit. FOCUS this week on eating better than not, and getting my calories burned UP.
