    Eh only half a pound. This week was proof that letting myself get too stressed and fall off the wagon for a few days really shows. I was too sloppy last weekend and then the stress monday/Tuesday got to me. I am going to make this weekend better, I can't use the weekends as an excuse to go overboard and not workout. Going to search around for something outdoorsy and fun to do this weekend since the temperature will be a little better!

    Ps, feel free to add me as a friend! I am looking for some friends. Could really use the support and motivation 😁 and will gladly return the favor! 🤗

    I’m battling some winter re-gain since I hit my low of 158 last summer. Still getting back in the groove, so as long as I keep tracking & working on my habits and the scale moves towards my goal, I’m happy. But dang it if I don’t want to hit this goal ASAP!

    Friday August 2 weigh-in: 170!

    I think lots was water so I’ll have to update my challenge goal. Keeping it at 1lb/week, I’m aiming for 167 now 😁

    Between my run yesterday and an amazing dinner last night, I believe this is just water weight. I did manage to hit a new low last Saturday, so I’m making progress, even if my weigh doesn’t reflect it.

    July 26: 123.0 ugh so this isn’t going well. For the first time since my journey in January I’m at a stand still. I haven’t been doing any additional activity than my normal day thus far. I think it’s time to reintroduce more cardio into my plan. Started with a mile tonight. Hope to report better news on Friday. Happy for the rest of you!
    August 2: 122.4
    Labor Day!:

    Ugh. I feel for you since I am in the same boat. After losing about 40-42 lbs I have entered a plateau. Persistence is going to be very important for me.

    Good luck!

    Friday August 9 weigh in: 171

    This was my period week, so while it’s up from last Friday, I also had a full 2.6lb gain on most of my weigh-ins this week. Hopefully I’m somewhat on track, though I did have a couple poor eating days. I’ll wait to see how next week goes before I consider this one a wash, I’m probably still a little bloated.
