    February Goal: 138
    February Actual: (+8pounds)


    Weight lost this week: +8 lbs

    Challenge Weight loss goal: 8 pounds

    So rather than loosing 8 pounds I gained 8 pounds. I know where I have gone wrong and although I thought I would have my sh&t handled and dealt with these past three months, it's obvious that I haven't been taking things seriously. I made bad choices and these are the consequences of those decisions. Am I dissapointed? A little but I am not surprised or upset. I know I can do better and be better I now have to put it into action.

    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 10 pounds to land at 192.2
    CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM NOVEMBER 30TH 2020): 207.2
    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:

    Challenge Weight loss goal: I am aiming for a 5 pound per month.




    December 01: 207.6 Not a good start.
    December 07: 202.6 Burning it off with the unpacking from the move.
    December 14: 203.4 Christmas goodies that I should be avoiding.
    December 21: 206.0 Well, there it is. In writing. Very stark. And right in the midst of Christmas week as I prepare to bake and also become a fudge making machine. Clearly I cannot control the Christmas goodies well. So I will try to control what I think I can right now. My actual meals, my movement and my water drinking. It will go A LONG WAY in helping to mitigate the damage.
    December 28: 205.2 I don’t think its possible to make goal, but I’ll aim for the best.
    December 31: 207.0 Chinese for the past 2 days. Celebrations tonight. Goal is to carefully monitor the food and portions tonight to allow room for a few cocktails.


    December Goal: 202.2
    December Actual: 207.0
    Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 0.6 lbs lost



    January 01: 207.8 I really screwed up! It stops today!
    January 04: 207.4 Such a LONG way to go.
    January 11: 207.0 A horrible weight week but I got it back down just in the nick of time.
    January 18: 206.2 Lower calorie/carb dinners lately. Tweaking the snacks. Need more exercise.
    January 25: 208.2 I went up a full two pounds this morning all at once! Carbs. New Dawn, New Day.
    January 31: 207.6 down a touch. I am surprised actually.


    January Goal: 202.2 (revised)
    January Actual: 207.6
    Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 0.4 lbs Gained



    February 01: 207.6 no change.
    February 08: 207.4 a touch better. But I can do better than this.
    February 15: 208.8 This reflects a huge overnight jump which I didn’t expect and was a bit unfair. Next week should show a drop due to this inflated number.
    February 22: 207.2 This reflects an overnight jump but is still less than last week so I will take it. My final weigh-in will be on the last day of February for a full reflection. Right now I am exactly at my starting weight for this challenge and I am sad about that. Perhaps I can make a difference in the next 6 days of Feb. I had hoped to finally touch Onederland by the end of Feb. That is clearly not going to happen, but I should be able to accomplish SOMETHING!

    Challenge Weight loss goal: 26 pounds in 3 months

    Bad news: I missed my goal by 10 pounds; good news: I lost 16 pounds.
    (It's good though to have a challenging goal as it can help to motivate you.)
    For Spring, I'm going to shoot for a 1.5 pound loss per week.

    February 22 : 187.8 ( I wasn't expecting a loss this week since my body is collecting water, plus I have been working my muscles out, but I should be around 185 , more or less. I'll know for sure at the end of February).

    February Goal:181
    February Actual:185.4

    How much I have lost: 7.7 lb
