Feb. Diary/Accountability/Progress

Hello! A thread for progress or struggles this Feb. I like reading other peoples weight loss diaroes I find them very motivational so please feel free to post.

I am a 5'4 29yr old F and mom on 1200 cal.

sw 136
Cw 131
Gw 110

I have been doing this for over a month and a half and have lost 5 lbs. It is very slow for me because I am already a size 8 and my bmr just keeps getting lower and lower. Currently have a lb and a half of water weight going on but will persist through the rest of this week. Hopfully breaking into the 120's.

    Hello!

    Keep it up! Slow and steady can win the race.

    I'm a 5'5 woman and I've been working at losing weight since the beginning of January. I've been very regimental in my calories per day and I'm feeling pretty good about myself.

    SW 140
    CW 130
    GW 125

    I'd like to get into the 120's by the end of the month. I do have a work potluck coming up next week and today is cupcake day. I'd like to say I'll avoid them but I know myself too well.

    Made it back down to 131 finally. So here's to hitting a new goal by Sunday. Having my cup of coffee with sugar like always then it os eating nice and clean the rest of the day.

    Hello!!

    I started my diet January 2018 and after many ups and downs I've lost 64 pounds. It has definitely been slow and steady.

    55yo f, 5'3
    sw 200 lb
    CW 136 lb
    gw 125 lb

    I have lost about 4 lbs in the past 2 weeks, but it's been hard lately as I've hit a plateau.
    Any suggestions?

    That is great progress. When you get to around our hieght and weight the loss slows down. A plateau, that's why I calorie count and have calculated my bmr. This way even if the scale doesn't move I know I am losing. I am sure you are still losing or need to cut calories a little.

    I am so hungry today. Ate 1400 calories and walked a little. Everything is ok. Not sure why I get so hungry sometimes and other days seem easier.

    Great job to all of you working so hard and doing your best. I’m ready to get back in the game and go for my GW after a few years of not being careful the way I once was. I haven’t really taken part in these chats before, but decided I could use (and give) support and accountability to do this again. Thank you in advance!

    SW & CW 134 lbs (as of today)
    GW 112 lbs

    Feeling hungry before bed. Had a 100 calorie snack. I logged my calories today at 1100 to 1300 which is pretty good. Scale hasn't budged in 3 days so lets see tomorrow.
