    Having been sick for the last weeks of December, however. I need to remember to ease back into things. I did a great weight /strength workout but was so sore that I had to take days off. And I went for a great run but it totally zapped energy. So I just need to dial a few things back and ramp up slowly. Not a problem! I can do this. I'm going for a power walk today and doing a short weights session

    glad you are feeling better!

    Hi! I'm new to this forum. I got some extra kg during lockdown and since the gyms closed I lost a lot of basic fitness. I've since been chaotic with homeworkouts. This week I started again, doing the Chloe Ting 2022 weight loss challenge. Let's see where it takes me.
    Ultimately I would like to get back to 49kg (108lbs), and waist 66cm by the beginning of summer.

    Stats
    Height: 163 cm (5'4")
    Age: 35
    Starting weight: 55,9 kg / 123lbs (3rd Jan 2022)
    Starting measurements: Waist 70cm

    3rd Jan: 55,9kg (123lbs) / waist 70 cm

    Hey all, do you post your stats weekly, or stick with month beginning/end?

    Hi @stacyrey12 It’s completely up to you! You can post as often or as little as you like. Some people post at regular intervals, like a certain day of the week. Some people post every day. Others, like me, are a bit more random and post whenever they have a moment. Whatever works for you to keep you motivated.

    Happy Tuesday!

    I had my first PT session of the year last night. A nice strength workout with a lot of deadlifts. I can feel my glutes today :#

    For the newbies: Weigh-ins vary a lot from person to person. In the past I have used an app (Happy Scale) to track my weight trend by weighing myself daily. Personally I found it a good way to track my average trend because a woman's weight fluctuates so much more because of the female hormonal cycle alone (yay, biology!). I'm not doing it at the moment but am toying with the idea of re-introducing it. My downfall is not getting up in time, rushing to get ready for work and forgetting to weigh in...

    I have found that my sugar intake has dropped. I certainly haven't banned sugar or made a conscious effort on that front, but i think my choice of good carbs on the whole (hello porridge!) has helped with the slow burn and energy release. The majority of my sugar now comes from natural sources. I also baked my first sourdough loaf in probably about a year on Friday, and the result was a bloat free weekend, which I think also have a part to play in my increased my energy levels.

    Little changes, all very manageable.

    Hope everyone's week is off to a good start!

    @k8richer - Not the pics you are after I suppose, but I thought I'd share my bloat free bread anyway :D

    *drools a little bit*

    that looks delicious!

    Of course on weigh in day I have my heaviest weigh-in since last week Friday...

    New workouts have been good so far, glad I went with 3x/week with some type of "cardio" 2-3x/week on the "off" days - lets me have a shorter workout on those cardio days which is a little less overwhelming with my current schedule.

    50, almost 5'5''
    Jan GW 129 lbs

    Jan 1 133 lbs
    Jan 8 131.4 lbs
    Jan 15 131.8 lbs

    As you can see, I did not lose any weight this past week. On Monday, I shopped when I was hungry, and bought some junk food. I spent the next few evenings eating it! By Thursday, I was over it, and was able to get back on track. Although I didn't make progress on the weight front, I do feel like I had a small victory - normally I would have finished the junk food before getting back to the plan!
