    Comments: This was a better week, both physically and mentally, but I still need to try harder. I'm much better off when I avoid carbs early in the day. Seems like when I have carbs at breakfast I'm hungry all day long.

    Fresh fruit salad

    My most effective workout this week was: I didn't get any workouts in as I broke my toe, so have been immobile.

    Weigh-in #5

    Challenge Start Weight:59.3kg
    Challenge Goal Weight: 57kg

    Weigh-in #1:
    Weigh-in #2: 59.3
    Weigh-in #3: 58.7
    Weigh-in #4:
    Weigh-in #5: 60.3

    A positive thought I had this week was: Lots of exercise and I am fitter than I thought. A big hike saved my calory average last week. My weight dropped to glorious 58.2 for about five minutes, but at the moment it's that time of the month, so all weight bets are off.

    Also, not so positive thought: I am definitely slipping on the calorie front. Not massively, but I always end up 100-200cals over. Technically that is still losing territory (just), but realistically I am not holding it together and am getting frustrated.

    A healthy snack/meal I chose this week was: white cabbage salad. Thank God for crunchy foods!

    My most effective workout this week was: an overnight hike with a 12kg pack 1800m up and down a mountain.

    Comments: I am changing my challenge goal weight to <150. I am also not going to worry about my calorie goal this week, because I am going to work on tracking as accurately/honestly as possible. I need to focus on tracking because over the last year I have gotten more careless with it. Back to basics for me.

    I was out of town for the past few days so I know that is why my weight is up, but it should mostly be water weight. I was proud of myself on vacation - I still ate what I wanted but I was WAY better with portions than I normally am and stopped eating when I was full rather than eating everything.

    I haven't been really losing but I've at least been maintaining. I'm getting close to my ultimate goal weight so I know it's going to take extra work but sometimes I just don't feel like trying that hard. :/

    Another member of the not-losing group here! I need to do a better job of not going over goal on a daily basis. Even the pain of those red numbers doesn’t seem to be enough to keep me in the green when there is chocolate to be had. Only a little bit of chocolate but still.

    Wk3 131.1 -0.4
    Wk4 132.9. +1.7

    A positive thought I had this week: I am making better choices

    Good workout: Light lifting, lots of band work, circuit style.

    Healthy meal: roasted garlic cauliflower and chicken

    I’m doing better than last week. But my drive has been low. Not sure what’s going on. Work’s been boring. I don’t have much to look forward to these days, it feels like massaging and mommying ahead. So I want to fix that. Step 1: plan a summer vacation. It’s the little things, right?

    Comments: I'm behind here and checking in late. My battery died on my scaled last week and I didn't get a new one until yesterday. Weighed myself this morning. I also fell last Tuesday down a flight of stairs so I'm still recouping. Thankfully didn't break anything or hit my head. Just ended up with a bruised up right leg and a nasty laceration below my knee where I got to see my bone after my fall. Ack. Anyway, I get my stitches out tomorrow, though no working out till probably early June :( I have been told to do some stretching daily so I'm working on that. I'm also watching my eating to make sure I don't over eat. I have total cabin fever right now. Thankfully I can get around more this week and walk. Anyway, I'm doing what I can!

    So we are the same weight but I am so much “thicker”. Lol! You know, I think I need to accept we come in all different shapes and our weight distribution is different as well. I don’t know how to get rid of my thighs. Maybe they’ll never leave. I don’t know.

    Anyway, that’s a yummy meal you had and you definitely deserve a vacay.

    Jess, that’s too funny because I’ve seen your pics and I think of you as pretty lean! Oh, my thighs too... I keep believing that we can keep recomping, it’s just painstakingly slow... I think... I hope lol. You’re right, bodies are so different!
