    Today's weigh in 186.2kg.

    I think I was 186 last week so happy with that as I feel like I had a good Christmas without eating everything in sight. Did enjoy some cheese and wine though!

    New years 5k tomorrow. Feel so nervous!

    A virtual maintain over Christmas...we should all have planned so well!! And don't be nervous for your 5k...just have fun with it!!!

    Okay, last week was Christmas. This week, we work on getting rid of the Christmas gain. It doesn't have to all go at once....we just have to reverse the trend to down instead of up!! You got this!! (And I say "we" because I am in the exact same boat!!)

    Happy New Year all!
    I had a very indulgent end to 2018 but I'm still below the lowest I've ever been in my adult life.
    Obligatory greetings to all new and existing members, this forum is hugely supportive in all the right ways, I too find the accountability an excellent motivator.

    I am T, I have 2 small children, married, a full time student and on top of all that, I also work shifts in the hospital and in my spare time, I renovate our home. I'm not back in uni until 8/1/19 so I will be trying hard to keep on top of my consumption until I can get back in a routine. I detest wasted food, which doesn't work out well with 2 small indecisive people about! I love exercise, but I do find making the time for it difficult some days when I'm already exhausted. My 'routines' are all out of kilter, I never have one day the same as the next but as long as I plan and drink enough water, it seems I can make progress.

    My weight at it's highest was around 280 (I stopped weighing at 273ish) I have tried Slimming World, fad diets and other misc poor diet ideas that I wouldn't advocate and by FAR MFP has been the most helpful and successful, changing the way I use food to fuel my body and calories to have the things that my body and brain crave without ruining the day, rather than the binge punishment cycle that I was in. I still have unhelpful connections with food, which do occasionally raise their ugly heads, but MFP and support like this has me overcoming them a small piece at a time. I used to think that one slip meant the week was gone and I might as well give up, to thinking it was just the one day, to where I am now, I now understand better how my body works, fuelling in the morning and cutting out late night snacks.

    My starting weight for 2019 is 197.7, my overall goal is to get my BMI down to 21ish (we'll see when I get closer).

    Welcome all to January, here's to a fantastic, happy, warm and safe 2019 for all of us :smiley:

    Under calories: Yes
    Exercised: Yes - 30 minutes elliptical / 10 minute stretch / 5 minutes abs
    Steps as of posting: 15,951

    Aggravated my knee injury a bit today. I was able to keep calories under but my activity level went down a notch. Hopefully some light days of waking and stretching will calm the knee down so I can get back to aggravating it, :)

    Not bad after falling face first into the holidays.

    Spending the New Years Eve chasing migrating whales and watching the fishermen fishing off the coast.

    LOVE the ocean and the crashing waves.

    My weight today is 240 same as my beginning weight. Just starting to work on me for the first time in a long time. Excited to be on this team. My husband says the team name is perfect for me.
