Challenge Goal: 226
Week 1: 238.0
Week 2: 238.0
Week 3: 237.2
Week 4: 237.6
Week 5: 235.6
A positive thought: The scale moves down when I really give it a try.
A healthy snack/meal: Whole grain bread with mozzarella, tomatoes, spinach, ground basil.
My most effective workout this week was: Body cycle. Also got Pilates Reformer travel kit for at home, only had time for 1 go this past week and no strength!
Comment: I pored over previous weight loss success, trying to figure out what was different then. I discovered that I had set my cals at 0.5 lbs loss per week, no wonder! I kept real low during the week to see a response even though school assignments hit me with full force, work situation stress, my place changing owners. I needed to up during the weekend when I am absolutely maxed out with school and work but success on the scale this morning!

A positive thought: I'm happy it's still moving down! Slow and steady.
A healthy snack/meal: Not very good this past week. Feeling hormonal.
Most effective workout: None yet. Barely walking.
Comment: I am starting to be more self aware than I have in a long time when it comes to this process. I see the scale moving differently depending on what I put in my mouth, and how I feel. It makes me feel more in control of the process. This is a great thing. I will make my goal this time!2 -

Hi gridirongrrl, congratulations! I "follow" you since you are closest to my weight. How did you manage to lose that much? What's your daily cals and you probably work out a lot?1 -

Realised I didn’t even log in last week... not that there has been much change. The house has been struck by various minor ailments and I have more-or-less been eating at maintenance for the last two weeks, and not doing any runs. Busy time at work too means I am not getting a walk in, even though I am getting steps. Hoping everything eases up soon!2 -
@gesundundmunter Thanks! I just sent you a friend request
My daily calorie goal is 1620. I generally am just a bit under that. All I’ve done really workout wise is increase my step count. I walk 3-4 miles/day on my treadmill which gives me another 350 or so calories for the day which I try not to eat. I’m messing with adding in some strength training now but not very consistent with it. That’s it really!0 -

Thanks, gridirongrrl, I just accepted. With not eating back the treadmill cals, you stay pretty low and lose.0
