    I am late in joining, but I don't want to miss out on tracking.

    MFP Original weight was around 123lbs.
    As of today, I am at 135 lbs. (Thanks, Shelter in Place)
    I need to get back down to 125lbs, but I am nursing a stress fracture in my foot.
    So, the weight loss has to be more food related for me.
    Guess that puts me at a Level 2 for this challenge.

    I like the idea of weighing in on Saturdays.
    :

    5/9:
    5/16:
    5/23: 135
    5/30:

    6/6:
    6/13:
    6/20:
    6/27:

    7/4:
    7/11:
    7/18:
    7/25:
    7/31:

    Thanks for creating this.

    Goal for today's weigh in was 129.2 so I'm a little disappointed with moving in the opposite direction here. This week, I slacked on logging calories for one day (and didn't get in a good workout on that day either!). I find it hard to believe that caused my 1.4lb gain but I'm sure it didn't help! This week, I'll be sure to take those few minutes a day to log everything and be consistent about getting my daily activity. I'll be happy if I can get back to that 130 mark at next week's weigh in but I'm not sure that 1.4lb loss in a week is realistic for me. Here's to looking ahead and making progress regardless!
