    7/23
    Tracking Yes
    Calories Yes
    Exercise Yes Walking before class and was joined by a friend. We ended up working on "power walking" so made it farther in the same amount of time. Who knew there was a right and a wrong way to walk?

    Weekly weigh in Week 4 July 23
    Weigh in day Monday
    Last week 238.3
    This week 237.0

    Another great week, Mary!! Your consistency is paying off!! Love when you say, "Who knew there was a right and a wrong way to walk?" It just shows we are never too old to learn new things!! And if you can speak Swiss German or Hungarian...I might be able to hire you as my personal valet!!

    @katevt78, when I told Ashley and Craig that our team rock star was moving on from the challenge because she had reached goal weight, they asked me to pass on their sincere congratulations!!

    @HASWLRS I knew taking 4 years of Latin in high school was a mistake.

    7/24
    Tracking Yes
    Calories Yes
    Exercise Yes Got out early for our walk before it got to hot. I also got a worksheet in class that is a 7 minute workout that is high intensity. It took 20 min and kicked my backside.
    As I continue to do it I am sure that I will eventually be able to complete it in 7 minutes.

    No loss this week. Which bummed me out. I started strength training this week and all my muscles are sore, which I imagine might be masking a small loss. I was under on calories for the week and had mostly great days. Worked out 7 days a week. Going to continue the same way for another week and If i still dont see a loss next week I'm going to evaluate everything and make some changes. See if that helps. Today is my birthday so I have my calories set to maintenance but I'm still going to work out so if I do end up eating all the calories I'll still have a net loss on calories. Going to enjoy the day and try not to think about not losing this week. On another note today is also day 60 of my tracking streak. I started before that but I've been actively using mfp again for 60 days so I think that's a small victory.

    Happy Birthday, hope you have a great one!
    I understand the feeling when you want to see a loss, but not gaining is a win! As you keep strength training that muscle will start burning fat more. Keep going, you are doing great

    Happy Birthday, Vi!! Since you just started weight training this week, your muscles are more than likely holding onto water as they repair themselves. Don't fret about the scales not showing a loss, as you are doing everything right!! It sounds like you have a plan to enjoy your birthday, and still post an "under" day!! Whoo hoo!! Congratulations on your 60 day streak...that shows your dedication to the process!!
