    This will be my first challenge, but I am in dire need of some support! While becoming more active in the last few months, I still struggle with eating habits. I need to remind myself I will not see change without making a change. I am looking forward to the challenge and 5 lbs is a feasible goal!

    Original starting weight - Debatable since I have been on a on-and-off weightloss journey for many years
    May starting weight - 177.2 lbs
    May goal -173 lbs
    Ultimate goal - 155 lbs

    May 1st - 177.2 lbs
    May 8th - 175 lbs
    May 15th - 175.8 lbs
    May 22nd -

    Put a little bit back on but I haven't been drinking nearly enough water the last few days, so I'm guessing that doesn't help.

    That’s only a gain of 4/10 of a pound. I bet it’s water or something like that. You’re doing great!

    Plateau or not, just fine. I spent the past weekend backpacking with 10 Boy Scouts covering 20 miles in two days and eating a lot of (necessary) calories. I am perfectly happy with no change. Garmin and MFP says I "earned" a couple thousand extra calories. Not so sure I ate them all as I lost track logging on Sunday. I did eat a huge bowl of Ice Cream...YUM!

    On my way to the Grand Canyon for 6 days of backpacking and eating 3500 calories each day. Should be interesting.

    Doing just fine! Keep at it yall...

    Ugh...went up again. Who knows though, hopefully it's a fluke and next week will be different!

    Felt slender this morning so figured I would give it a go even though it wasn't weigh in day. Glad I did! I was feeling discouraged from Tuesday, but it looks like it must have just been water weight, bloating, or something of that nature. Also went on an 8 mile hike yesterday that kicked my butt!...glad to be making progress, but my allotted calories also just updated since I have lost weight and I am only allowed 1,450 now instead of 1,600 booooo! Haha ;)
