    Just got back on MFP after a LONG hiatus and have definitely let myself go to the point it is affecting so many aspects of my life I feel like I don't have a handle on anything and haven't put time or effort into my hair, makeup, or clothes in way too long. I'm an all or nothing person, but trying to take a much calmer approach this time because, the all or nothing is definitely not working. I have never posted on message boards such as this, but I'm hoping and praying this helps! Good luck everyone and thank you!!

    Starting weight: 196
    Goal weight: 189

    Mini goals:
    1) Hydration 💦 (Drink a gallon of water a day)
    2) Diet 🥑🥦 (Eat 9 oz vegetables daily)

    Okay, first check-in!

    Original SW: 252.8 (11/13/2020)
    Challenge SW: 243.1 (2/5/2020)
    Challenge GW: 235

    Mini Goals:
    * Ring Fit Adventure on weekends + at least 1 weeknight
    * Limit snacks to 300cal per day
    * At least one long (30+min) outdoor walk per week

    I weigh in on Fridays, so I'm adjusting the check-in dates.

    I did play some Ring Fit this week, and plan to get another good session in this weekend. My snacks averaged about 490 calories per day, so higher than I wanted it to be, but the trend over the course of the week has been downward, which is good. The outdoor walk has not happened this week, but that's mostly poor planning on my part. Overall I'm pleased with where I'm at right now and I'm looking forward to doing even better next week.

    I would love to start this challenge!! I have been at roughly the same weight for the past several years. I lost 10lbs last March and then COVID happened and I completely let go after being overwhelmed with job loss, kids in virtual school and just being hidden in general. I’ve gained about 20lbs in the past year 😳 which makes this the most I’ve ever weighed in my adult life minus pregnancies.

    Starting weight: 129
    Goal weight for challenge: 123 (to lose 6 lbs)
    Ultimate goal: 120

    Mini Goals:
    1- Fitness 👟 (Exercise 3 hours every 6 days)
    Plan- exercise 30 minutes on bike & 10 on
    arms six days/week = 4 hours)
    2- Stay within calorie budget
    Plan- whenever possible budget dinner
    and dessert, if needed either add
    extra workout or reduce desert
    3- Drink at least 48oz, aiming for 64oz of water
    Plan- other than coffee, drink only seltzer
    until dinner (wine or beer) and then
    seltzer

    Mini Goal Progress:
    1- The habit of first morning coffee and then exercise, is set. 🎉 I’m still shocked that this habit stacking works. Me? Exercise? Never would have thought it possible. I’d rather clean the kids’ bathroom than exercise (if you have kids- messy kids) you know what I mean.
    2- Staying within calorie budget. As long as I plan ahead, and don’t have any extra cake lying around, then I’m usually able to stick to the budget.
    3- Drinking 48-64oz water. Still a struggle to drink more water. 32 oz- I can do. 40 oz- most days (although not yesterday).

    Hope you had a good week. You can do this!
