    W7 1/12: 169.3
    W8 1/19: 165.9
    W9 1/26: 165.0

    I knew this week was going to be hard. I ate out multiple times, went to happy hour and had all day plans both days over the weekend that prevented me from working out and included a lot of poor food choices. In order to combat my high calorie plans I spent my lunch breaks taking walks and made sure to fit in a few light workouts during the week, I also tried really hard to stick to my diet plan when I could. I am happy with my success despite the challenges I faced. I am hoping this week will be a little stronger on all fronts!

    In very happy news I am a little over half way through my overall goal and also doing well in this accountability challenge. It is hard some days/weeks to stay motivated but I know I can do it! And looking at my current results gave me the positivity I needed to start this week strong after eating take out Chinese and Pizza this weekend.

    We can do it!




    Yes!!! We can do it!! 😊

    What I've learned about myself: I have been able to make good choices even though it has been extremely difficult. I’ve made myself workout even tho I’ve been very tired all week so I’m feeling strong but slightly less motivated.

    Starting Weight on 4/1/2019: 280
    Current Challenge Weight: 195.6
    Goal Weight: 180 (this is my ultimate goal weight from when I started my WLJ last April. It will mark a 100 lb total weight loss. These last 15 lbs will most likely be the toughest for me, but I will give it my best shot! Good luck everyone!)

    W1 12/1: 195.6
    W2 12/8: 193 (upped my workouts this past week, but have been eating back all my calories...apparently not enough! I'll take it though :) We'll see if it holds by next week.)
    W3 12/15: 191.6 (Thought for sure I would gain some back this week but reduced my salt intake and not retaining as much water now.)
    W4 12/22: 192.6 (yesterday I was 190.8, but today is weigh-in for the challenge. I'm used to these wild swings. They've been happening since day one of my journey. No worries.... Merry Christmas everyone!)
    W5 12/29: 192.4

    W6 1/5: 189.6 (on the last day of 2019, I hit 189.8 and NORMAL WEIGHT BMI...I must have been retaining a ton of water from the holidays and even lost a little more since then, for today's weigh in. I haven't seen the 180's since 2001...Happy New Year everyone and welcome to all the new people!)
    W7 1/12: 188.4
    W8 1/19: 187.8 (Slow, steady, and healthy as I get closer to my ultimate goal of 180 lbs..my setting on MFP is to lose 1/2 lb per week now. I had a really good week, exercise wise. Pushed it when I didn't feel like it at the time.)
    W9 1/26: 187.4 (challenge weight loss 1/2 way point, -8.2 lbs. This is actually more than I thought I would lose by this time since I am near my goal weight. Total weight loss since April 2019, -92.6 lbs.)

    W10 2/2: 185.8 (Lost more than expected this week. I didn't really change anything in my daily routine. Knowing my body weight fluctuations, I'll probably be up next week. Also, I haven't been 185 lbs since 2001! :).....Keep on Truckin'!)

    What I've learned about myself : That I need to figure out my plan of attack, I'm not doing so well. I have a lot of goals but seem to be unable to focus which causes me to be all over the place, and as anyone can see, it isn't working!!!

    Starting Weight: 240 (July 2019)
    Challenge Starting Weight: 218.1 (Dec 1, 2019)
    Goal Weight: 198

    W1 12/1: 218.1 - Enjoyed Thanksgiving but didn't succumb to it.
    W2 12/8: 217.2 - Continuing to move in the right direction.
    W3 12/15: 218.1 - Yikes! I need to commit to exercising harder ... starting right now.
    W4 12/22: 216 - Too lax on the holiday party eating but close to my milestone goal of 215 by EOY.
    W5 12/29: 218.3 - Arrgh! Too many Bowl games, soft pretzel bites & beer. Disappointed December is a write-off.

    W6 1/5: 215 - A few days late to hit my 2019 year-end goal but I'll take the late win!
    W7 1/12: 213.5 - Daily High Knees, Climbers & Flutter Kicks (Jan exercise challenge) and healthy eating are doing the job.
    W8 1/19: 212.4 - Will need to move the needle faster to hit my goal by Apr 1 but still moving in right direction.
    W9 1/26: 211.9 - I was 1.5 lbs lighter just a few days back (a little water weight maybe?)

    W10 2/2: 211.2 - I was in the 209s earlier this week but need to clean up my Friday night & Saturday food choices!

    I'm in and ready to get back to at least 179 pounds through watching what I eat, walking, and drinking at least 8 glasses of water each day.

    Current Weight: 194.8
    Goal Weight: 179


    W6 1/5: 194.8
    W7 1/12: 189.8 A very good first week. Hope to get to 187 by next. Drinking lots of water helps!
    W8 1/19: 188.8
    W9 1/26: 193.4 Oops! Not a good week, was inactive (sick), and appetite was up.

    W10 2/2: 192.6 Eating better, though I didn't track food this week. (Go Niners!)

    What I've learned about myself: I can't believe I'm still losing, so I need to stay motivated so I don't stall. This the time when I start to slack. If I keep bumping it up a notch, I may actually meet my goal! Stay strong buddies!!
