    Week 3
    Last week’s weight: 188
    Today’s weight: 187
    Total loss in 2019: 1

    Last week’s successes: Pilates reformer Monday and Saturday. Walked 20-30 minutes most days. Did hand weight workout Friday. Although I’m sore I feel stronger.

    Last week’s challenges: Seems I’ve stalled out at recording my intake. Have been so distracted by many things, very unhappy about a few.

    This week’s plan:. Pilates Wedn. Continue work on decluttering basement so I can get to my treadmill. Walk daily. Consistent measuring and recording food intake. Drink more water, less wine. End the week with a loss.

    Just starting out with the challenge. I lost 34 pounds last year but have gained most of it back. I had been counting my calories on MFP, walking everyday, drinking more water, and watching my portions but all that slowly eroded away and I now do a lot of mindless snacking. I've started about 2 times to get back on track since fall of last year and can't seem to keep it going, but I'm here trying once again.


    Starting weight: 201 (as of 12/31/18)
    Goal weight: 150
    Current weight:199.6

    :
    This week's challenges: curbing snacking, walking 1 mile everyday, drinking 8 glasses of water a day, and logging meals on MFP

    Week 2

    Starting weight: 265lbs
    Goal weight: 213lbs
    Current weight: 263lbs
    Total weight lost: 2lbs

    That's my xmas gain gone, and that puts me back at a 78.5lbs loss since May 2018.

    This week, I've mostly struggled because when its dark when I get up, dark when I go to work, dark when I finish work, and its cold, I get very down. It exacerbates my depression, and I just want to shove junk food in my face all day long.
    This weeks success has been not doing that. I've had a few extra treats that I maybe shouldn't have done, but I managed to stay on track the rest of the time.
