    Ultimate GW: 145
    Weigh on Fridays

    Did 75 minute fat burn heart-rate workout this morning so think I'm back in some good habits. Looking forward to seeing everyone's progress.

    Sometimes the most important step is food.
    Here is dinner last night.

    Had a really good week, then it fell apart at the weekend when I had my niece and nephew to stay. They don’t stay that often so we wanted to treat them and I haven’t yet worked out how to convince myself that I don’t also need treating! Oh well, still a loss that I’m happy with!
    Have a great week everyone! X

    I'm a little late to this party... but I want in. (I started on April 8, so I'm a week behind, but whatevers.) I have a tendency to get obsessed with the scale, so I'll only weigh once every two or four weeks.

    SW (4/7):     225
    CW: 214.6 <-- Water weight and I was doing a bit too drastic a reduction in calories but have fixed that.
    GW: *shrug* I'll know it when I see it.

    I was able to work out just 3 times this week, but I managed to keep my deficit in a good place so I’m happy with my loss. Hoping to keep this progress and I should be able to meet my goal.

    I'm a late joiner but I'd like to join for some long term accountability. I used to track religiously but haven't since I was pregnant with my 3rd child.

    I never got back to my pre pregnancy weight this time but I currently weigh a few pounds more than when I delivered over 3 years ago. I dropped 20lbs initially but gained it back. My son has some delays which also affects his sleep and eating. I am an emotional eater and I over eat when tired. I got told in September that I need to lose weight due to high cholesterol and I've gained over 5lbs.

    I don't have a weight goal for the challenge but I do have a behavior goal.
    1. Track again even if it is terrible.
    2. 5+ servings of fruit and veggies
    3. Over 60g protein a day.
    4. Exercise 3x a week for over 30 minutes

    I think all those are reasonable and will be positive on my health.

    My stats at age 41 @5'3
    SW 194 lbs

    Ultimate goal is around 140 lbs.

    I was previously 140 (size 6) and that was maintainable. I have been 130 but I found that stricker than I want to be.
