    Welcome to the 52/52 Challenge. Plenty of weeks left to lose. Join, post and keep losing. You’re results are really working.

    I made GW 29 March, now on Maintenance Challenge. The 52/52 Challenge helped me to Lose -37 and -43 in 2016-17. Made me aware that every pound to lose took effort and every week effort required attention.

    @garlo12, I really love your comments, "who gains 3.2lbs in one week".The opposite is also true. It happens to the best of us too. Maybe you had forgotten to log in some food items . For me , whenever I do gain a lot, it's because I overindulge .Just hope that next week will be better.

    @garlo12....if you did weight lifting/strength training, your muscles are filled with water. Or it could be some of your foods were sodium heavy. In any case, it’s not fat...only water and will go away quickly. Increase your water this week and ease back on sodium. You got this!
