This week's successes: I stuck closer to my calorie budget this week. I still need to sit down and refigure my numbers, since it seems like I can eat significantly more than MFP says I can and still consistently lose about a pound per week.
This week's challenges: I tripped coming up the stairs at work yesterday, so I've got a bruised knee (and bruised pride) that is probably going to impact my workouts next week.5 -

This week's challenges: School started back up so my daughter doesn't have time for the Fitness Band - Hope I can continue faithfully without the competition.
Super excited, only .8 lbs away from my first pampering gift to myself!!! Yesterday, I had a sugar craving like crazy but being so close to my first 5lb loss reward definitely helped me - ate a banana and drank water instead of hitting my daughters bowl of fun size Reese (xmas stocking leftovers).

Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
A pound a week seems reasonable I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.

This weeks success was that I did publicly log three out of five days of some really bad choices getting better with honesty and accountability mostly to myself..
This weeks challenges staying on food plan , choosing food as a coping mechanism for fatigue, stress, frustration and isolation . None were made better by binging and I feel absolute rubbish physically..
Some may ask how I could gain four ponds in 5 days what can I say I'm an over achiever..🙄4 -

Losing weight may be a slow process, but quitting won't speed it up.
I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.

Week 2. Bouncing off the floor
Forgot to post. Last week’s drop was nice to kick things off, but it appears I’m still bouncing off of my current floor of 185. I finally (after months of this) punched through and hit 184.9 after a nice ride. The cooler season’s lighter activity seems more content to maintain my current weight, and eating at (what I thought) was a deficit, isn’t translating as well as I’d hoped. I’ll keep pounding at it…
Starting weight 1/1/2021: 192 lbs
Goal weight: 165 lbs
Current Weight: 186.6 lbs
This week’s Change: +1.5 lbs
Challenge weight lost: 5.4 lbs
This Week’s Successes:
Managed a 50 mile bike ride on the one day it warmed up enough for me to get out there. Logged all but a couple of my meals and all days were at deficit.
This Week’s Challenges:
Weather has been too cool to bike. Only got one ride in this week and had to re-register and sign waivers to re-activate my gym fob, so no gym until they get around to authorizing me again. Booty challenge and ride shredded my legs and hobbled me for a few days; not bouncing back as quickly as I once did. But no complaints, it’s been a while since I was truly sore, so I know I’m pushing myself again.
