    My last day of the semester ended today. Yay! Hooray! This week should be better in terms of workouts and eating. I did a PUSH workout along with HIIT. I ate oats for breakfast , Jimmy Johns for lunch and pasta with sausage, broccoli and brussel sprouts for dinner. Dessert was Greek yogurt with peanut butter and some white chocolate.

    I generally am not eating bad it’s just that after I eat my meal I binge on candy or sweets that are really in the house for the children. I am going to have my “sweets” at night that I will rotate.

    Challenge Start Weight: 129.6
    Challenge Goal: 125
    Week 1: 132.6
    Week 2: 128.6
    Week 3: 129.0
    Week 4: 128.2
    Week 5: 128.0
    Week 6: 132.0
    Week 7: 129.2
    Week 8: 130.0
    Week 9: ?!
    Week 10: ?!?!
    Week 11: 129.4

    A positive thought for the week:
    I exercised on purpose?! Twice?! Forming a healthy habit!
    Healthy snack or meal:
    Oatmeal with brown sugar, wheat germ, walnuts, raspberries, butter, and hemp oil?
    Best workout this week:
    I did yoga! Twice! Started the video series 30 days of yoga with "Yoga with Adriene" on YouTube. Sunday I did a short beginner video, and yesterday I did Day 1 of her 30 day playlist.
    Lol I'm so inflexible it hurts.

    Comments:
    I went MIA, sorry y'all. Every time I get my period I just drop everything and avoid all accountability for anything. :(
    Also my scale said 127.2 today! The 129.6 is from yesterday. I must be dehydrated and I know NSVs are better than SVs, but I'm still pretty happy about it~

    Congrats on the end of the semester, SmithsonianEmpress!

    Best workout this week: Body bike during TV treat.

    I hit more 1 am deadlines for school, working the whole day, it just all takes time. I’m taking the weekend off work because Sunday is finals deadline for one class and next WED for the other class. Then, like SmithsonianEmpress, I’ll focus on exercise again.

    My secret? Errr...not entirely sure. I think a few pounds are actually down to starting on meds for RA and a reduction in inflammation rather than fat loss.

    The rest? Just trying to eat under maintenance. I am not spectacularly tight with my logging, I don’t eat ‘clean’ or do any particular eating plan. I like cheese. I like chocolate. I do try to get 10,000 steps a day and have been doing couch to 5k. I don’t (physically can’t) lift.

    Well, hats off to you. Whatever you are doing is working. It would do me some good to start logging again but I personally feel like if I eat what I’m supposed to then there’s no need to.

    I’ve tried maintaining without logging and I’m not good at it! I have MFP set to lose 1lb a week sedentary (but it bottoms out at 1200 which I think would give me about 0.75lb). I then add activity via Fitbit, which I think over-estimates my calories by about 100 a day. So I figure this set up gives me a 250 cal logging inaccuracy buffer, and if I am accurate and honest I should lose 0.5lb a week, and if I am not I should maintain.

    I somehow completely missed a week! I will catch up for our final by tomorrow. I'm a little nervous since I have been a hungry cow since my surgery Thursday LOL
