    I'd like to join! I'm trying to stay motivated. I got down to 150, gained 3 back on a 6 month diet break. Started again about 5 weeks ago. Wanting to stay on track.

    After a month of being essentially plateaued, I tweaked my settings to compensate for being a sloppy logger. It’s a little too soon to declare that it’s a success, but this morning’s weigh-in indicates that I am on the right track.

    Challenge: 21/7-2/9 (I know I'm late! But hopefully not too late to join???)

    Ultimate Starting Weight: 77 kg - 170 lb
    Challenge Starting Weight: 59 kg - 130 lb
    Challenge Goal Weight: 55 kg - 121 lb
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 52 kg - 115 lb

    I managed to make it down to 55kg in June but completely fell off the wagon and gained again. Hoping to get back to 55kg asap and this challenge seems like a good way to go!
    I'm going to use this to also challenge myself to be more aware of what I'm eating, and to also be more present when I'm eating. Food so easily becomes a comfort thing, and I just end up overeating on foods which aren't actually fueling my body in the way it needs. So let's do this!

    Ok down a few lbs this week, but not happy about it. During the week gain several lbs of water weight, seems new protein caused increase. Diet was tight, holding 19-2K daily. Changing workout this week, full body 3x week, in 4x10 range with last set being TUT/Drop set.... on rest days adding back more cardio, target is 4 hrs on treadmill walking.

    7/22 - 163.4 - well, only down by .4 lbs

    My calorie budget from MFP is a bit high. After under going an RMR test and checking out my last couple of weeks of food logging, the weight loss lined up perfectly. Now I have my numbers in place. I'm probably aiming to eat around 1350 cal every day but in the last couple of years, eating in that range left me very light headed after a couple of days. It was suggested that perhaps it was not lack of calories but perhaps not enough iron in my diet? So I'll be keeping an eye on that number and seeing if it corresponds to any light headedness I may feel.
