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! X1 -
OK... first weigh in since after a cheat weekend.

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.

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.

We have so many people participating in these challenges. It's hard for me to keep up with all the name. I guess that is my age showing. I do want to congratulate all those that have lost or maintained their weight. For those that had a gain. Don't give up. Things will get better. Trust me when I say this. If I can do this, anyone of you can do this.
If you want results. Don't give up and count those calories.5 -

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.
