Jan Loss:
Surprised but happy with this weeks loss. Was TOM and it was a tough week, only able to work out 3 days of 6 and my body screamed for food all week, kept to calorie goal 5 days out of 7....
Funny story: On friday night I did a sneak weigh in and I was really happy about the result. So I told my husband.
Me: "They scale says I lost weight this week!"
My husband: " Wow, how much did it say?!"
Me: "Low"
Lol it was actually the scale telling me the battery was low. but my husband loved the joke! He laughed his *kitten* off....and then proceeded to tell the shop keeper the next day, he laughed his *kitten* off too!!!

This week's successes: Logging, Calorie Intake, Exercising, I caught myself tucking my shirt in yesterday. Guess What? The muffin roll over the top of my jeans is gone!!!!!!! I am a tucker! I can tuck!
This week's challenges: Mother Nature - totally shocked at the scale this morning --- This is a huge thank you to all the posts that talked about their different types of calories consumed. I was just concentrating on staying at or below my limit. After reading your posts, I started looking at my own calorie reports - fats, fiber, sugar, protein, salt etx. I didn't realize my Fat intake is way high and Fiber is way low. And some of the other categories are okay but could be better. Thanks for opening up my eyes and I am going to do the research and see what I can do to have a better eating week.
My first pampering gift to self is Clean/Natural Makeup. Holy cow that stuff is expensive!!! This gift will need to cover the future 10lb lost as well. The next self pampering gift goal is the 15lb mark (203.8) and I got my eyes on a foot mask -- $20.

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.
