    Age: 34
    Height: 5’2”
    Total weight lost: 32lb
    Time it took to lose: approximately 18 months
    How long in maintenance: I reached my goal weight about a year ago, but kind of bounced around for a while.. it's taken til now since the beginning of the year to be getting consistent weigh-in's in the range I want to be in. So, I'd say only within the last couple weeks I've officially been in maintenance
    Maintenance weight range: 124lb-127lb
    Average weight recorded from 2018: ----

    Average weight recorded from March: 124.6

    Week of…
    March 31: 125.2
    April 7: 124.0
    April 14: 124.4
    April 21: 123.6
    April 28:


    Success(es)/struggle(s) of the week: Was pleasantly surprised with that low weigh-in, below my maintenance range even! I felt like I really struggled to stay within my cal goals this week, I guess I did better than I thought as a whole. Looking forward to a day-date and dinner with my husband Sunday to celebrate our wedding anniversary, I will for sure be splurging!

    Name: Faebert
    Age: 40
    Height: 5’6
    Total weight lost: about 50lbs
    Time it took to lose: on and off 3 years. First 30 in 4 months and then gradually reduced goal weight
    How long in maintenance: 23 months
    Maintenance weight range: 115-120
    Average weight recorded from 2017: 121
    Average weight recorded from 2018: 114.6

    Average weight recorded from January: 117.4
    Average weight recorded from February: 117.8
    Average weight recorded from March: 117.8

    Week of 7 April: 117.75
    Week of 14 April: 117.25
    Week of 21 April: 116.25
    Week of 28 April: 116.5

    Successes/struggles: A bit up and down food-wise this week with Easter etc but seem to have mitigated the worst of it with banking exercise calories. Want to try and aim for a bit more consistency again. Good to be back in the work routine but the early morning workouts and runs do feel very early! At least it’s lighter in the mornings now. A question for any runners - how do you know how to dress for early runs this time of year? I do around 10k so am out for less than an hour. When I set off at around 5:40am it is cold, but then I get hot pretty quickly. Is it better to under or over dress??

    Have a good week everyone

    @Faebert I usually dress as if it is 20 degrees warmer than it actually is. It is best to be a bit chilly starting out. If you are warm starting out you will probably be too hot once you get going.
