    @aganey Crock pot meals are great. My weekly standard is 3 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts with 1 can chicken gravy. Easy Peasy. I then have shredded chicken for quick sandwiches, soups, salad topping, chicken salad, fajitas, pot pie. Can also cook lean ground beef with a can of tomatoes.

    Week: 23

    Original starting weight (Jan 15/17): 206.8
    Challenge starting weight: 162.6
    Goal weight: 156.0
    Weigh-in day is Saturday

    May 4: 159.0
    May 12: 160.4
    May 19: 157.6
    May 26: 157.4
    June 3: 158.2 A day later than usual and a new scale
    June 9: 160.0 :/ Normal fluctuations - I weigh daily and was 157.4 just 3 days ago!

    Total weight lost (from Jan/17): - 46.8

    This week's successes and challenges: Even though my head knows that this is within a normal weight fluctuation, alarm bells still go off when the scale jumps up like this. Rationally I know that this isn't 'real' weight; rationally I know that this will come back down in a day or two; but, geez, still "semi-freakout" when this happens even after a year and a half of slow/steady weight loss!

    Age: 43
    Height: 6'4 / 1.91 m.

    Doing a 75 lbs / 34 kg challenge.
    Progress: 75 - 37.3 = 37.7 lbs to go


    Lose 52 Pounds In 52 week’s Challenge:
    Progress: 52 - 37.3 = 14.7 lbs to go


    Original start weight: 396.8 lbs / 180 kg (januari 01 2000)
    Starting weight for this year: 270.1 lbs / 122 kg (januari 01 2018)
    First goal set at: 240.4 lbs / 109 kg (getting on the transplant list)
    REACHED at 04-16-2018
    Next goal set at: 220.4 lbs / 100 kg. (Target date = 07-31-2018).
    Ultimate goal, also Deadline: 195.0 lbs / 88 kg (Target date = 12-31-2018)

    The Background:
    Current "Live Style Change" (Not a DIEt): 1650 kcal a day.
    Currently three times a week at the Gym, program of 150 minutes Cardio/Strength (mixed exercises 11/13).
    Every fourth-night a 60 minute session with a Personal Trainer.
    Every workday a three mile walk.

    Motivator: losing weight for 2nd kidney transplant in 2019(-ish?).
    Being a kidney patient makes me fluctuate in weight very bad.
    I can loose or gain 3 pounds or more in 24 hours on fluids alone.


    Weigh in time: 0600 Hours.

    I need to do lots of walking and keep my food choices under control. Low carb is definitely the way to go for me, it seems to be the only way I can limit my intake.
