    THURSDAY WEIGH IN

    Last week: 128.0
    Today: 126.6

    Yeah!
    I'd like to start focusing on toning (but that's no fun so hard to get motivated)

    @cossmoss15, in the meantime, you are definitely focused on losing weight!! Well done this week!!

    @murdog3t, absolutely wishing your son a good prognosis! Are you going anywhere on vacation, or are you going to relax at home?

    Yes because it was only 15 minutes. (I did have it on the highest resistance and I was getting 'warm')

    WEIGH IN FRIDAY

    Last week: 271.2 (123 kg)
    Today: 270.1 (122.5 kg)

    A bit disappointed, expected a better weigh in really been eating well and training freakin hard. But all good every small victory will start to add up just have to keep going and enjoy the journey. :smile:

    WEIGH IN
    Username: mikea2g
    Starting weight on 7/25/2018: 309
    September start weight: 290 (-19)
    October start weight: 279. (-11)
    November start weight: 264.7 (-14.3)
    December start weight: 254.8 (-9.9)
    January start weight: 247.5 (-7.3)
    February start weight: 238.2 (-9.3)
    March start weight: 228.7 (-9.5)
    April start weight: 225.8 (-2.9)
    -————————————-
    Previous Week's weight: 226.8
    Today's Weight: 223.8

    So...this is great! Apparently lowering my activity to almost nothing due to an injury has caused all the inflammation from working out hard to go away and a lower number has appeared. I honestly thought I was messing something fundamental up for a bit. My weight climbed to 230 on Monday, which was crazy. I guess I have to accept a 5+ pound swing in weight when I’m working out hard.

    @nordiera, love your mindset...to add up all the small victories!! This week, your small victories were losing a pound and training really hard, and when you put them together, they don't seem so small after all!!
