    Hit my goal! And my first plateau... oscillating between 58.7 - 59kg for 6 days now. I was waiting for it to happen at some point as I knew my loss was a bit "too good to be true", but the mental power of sustaining through a plateau is really draining. Habit building has been working, though. I'll get through it!

    Original starting weight - 64.5kg (03/18)
    May starting weight - 61.8kg
    May goal - 59kg
    Ultimate goal - 55kg

    May 1st - 61.8kg
    May 8th - 60.3kg
    May 15th - 59.1kg
    May 22nd - 58.9kg (< goal!)

    Total loss for May - 2.9kg

    Congratulations! Another breakthrough will come.

    I am going to postpone my weight-in; it's just one of those moments when you know stress, lack of sleep and salt water will be the enemy, so I'm not mentally ready to step on the scale. Maybe a 'pre-weigh-in' on Wednesday?

    To be continued...

    Last weigh-in: 193.6 lbs....(ups and downs)

    Hang in there! It isn't always linear :)

    Funny. That's the word I've been using lately: 'Linear' to describe my journey. And, yes, it has not be linear in the least bit. I'm pushing through!

    Been eating more carbs and not drinking nearly enough water. I've been exercising a lot, so maybe some of it is muscle mass? Who knows? I'll keep on trekking.

    Bounced back up a little from last week, which I was kind of expecting. I’ve been lazy with my eating habits, but this week it’s back on track. I’m adding more exercise in this week too!
