    Goal for July....reach a new decade!

    Not a check in, but a update.

    Just returned home after 2 weeks of travel visiting 2 different groups of family and an international work related reunion. So many good days filled with love, friendship, memories, food and drink. I visited with my 88 year old mother and a couple of siblings, grandchildren (so much energy) and old and new friends.

    Will be flushing out the body with gallons of water over the next few days. I did manage to get a few runs/walks in but really feel like I need to put some road time in this week and track my food intake carefully. I am craving structure.

    I will check in this weekend, assess the damage and carry on. So many people commented on my weight loss or made comments about me being a "tiny" person, I was walking on clouds. I owe the success to MFP and this challenge for the encouragement keeping me focused.

    Also it was the 52nd week :love: Since I took weight loss seriously and made changes and turn my life around. :blush:

    I lost total of 55 lbs. In 52 Weeks :sunglasses:

    This wasn't easy. This didn't come to me naturally. I had to work hard. I struggled. In past I too made many mistakes. And This time I used those mistakes and experiences as tool to Succeed.
    After some time many of us lose that "drive" or "fire". It gets difficult to stay motivated , stay focused.
    So here, the Real secret is Determination and Passion. It's the Key !!! Without Focus, Motivation, And Determination we can't achieve anything.

    07/02/18 258.0 -3.8 This was a good week. Stayed within my macros and ate well, but I'm concerned that I'm not eating enough calories.

    Lose 52 Pounds In 52 week’s Challenge:
    Progress: 52 - 38 = 14.0 lbs to go


    Doing a 75 lbs / 34 kg challenge.
    Progress: 75 - 38.0 = 37.0 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.

    I am fearful of the deep end of the swimming pool. Will be starting a swimming class tomorrow on overcoming fear of the deep end . Hope that I can accomplish this at the end of the 8 week session.

    @12774 Don't be discouraged by the lack of progress. You had a great loss last year and we are only half way through this year. You will succeed. I have also been at a stand still in my weight loss. I refuse to give up. We can do it.

    Take the swimming slow if you need to. I was a non swimmer before the age of 40. My husband was very patient and taught me the basics of floating and keeping my head above water. I lived in Hawaii! I had to be a swimmer! I slowly learned to snorkel and loved being in the water. However I was terrified of jumping in the water (I have fallen off the dock a couple of times). Last summer I practiced jumping in the pool. First with a life jacked. In August 2017 I swam with whale sharks! Jumped off the boat (no jacket) 3 times! I am 59.

    @tammierlewis, thanks for the encouragement. My 1st class was held today but we did not go into the deep end , the instructor just checked out our skill level and I got the OK to proceed.I definitely think that I will succeed. Will keep posting.
