Holding steady. Today was my birthday, so gave myself a treat day. Not a loss but okay with the fact that I’m close to my overall February goal (not revised). Was being optimistic with the revised goal, but overall happy with my February progress.4 -

I'm slightly off my February goal, but I'm fine with that after the week I had. I've learned that I need to prioritize sleep. I'm no good to anyone if I'm running on fumes. Especially with the increase in activity.5 -

Total loss for February I am holding steady again this week. My weight is unchanged from last week; that's maintenance. I am at the low end of my goal range, and I'm going to just be OK with that and not actively try to gain to the middle. I am pleased to be able to claim success for the fourth week in a row.

February 19: 74.4kg / 164.02lbs
February 26: 74.5kg / 164.24lbs - i'll be honest. i lost interest a bit this week and its not that i was massively overeating, i just wasn't watching what i was eating as much and i have done 0 exercise. I did notice a loss in the middle of the week which made me think i could increase my calories but today its caught up with me. Started being strict again yesterday so hopefully March will show more results

Just shy of my goal for the month but I count this as a win. This is the longest I have stuck to one weight loss plan without switching it up because it doesn’t work for me. I have finally found one that works for me and I enjoy!😀6 -

Hi everyone!
Walela617 (a.k.a. "Carole") Location: Boston, MA area (live in Somerville; work in Cambridge)
Heaviest: 217 on 02/29/2008
Lost 77 lbs. (140 lbs. by 02/28/13 - 5 years)
Pandemic Regain: Weight back up to 188 by 11/01/2021
Round Goal Wt: 141.0 or less (by the end of this month - Yeah. I blew that one! )
Ultimate Goal Wt: 132.0
THIS Challenge:
February 01: 149.6
February 08: 149.6 (No change)
February 15: 150.0 (NOOoooo!)
February 22: 149.4
February 28:
LTD: 00.2 lbs (Optional; loss to date from 02/01/23)
STATS for FEB 28 (actual weigh-in to be posted tomorrow morning). It looks like this has been more or less a "maintenance month" for me; however, at least I've been consistenly under 150 for the most part; so that's good. I just joined the "Zumba 6 Week Transformation program" https://zumba6week.com/; so that should help me try to bump off this apparent plateau! The program is virtual. It says six weeks but you have access to the videos for twelve months. (GOOD, because that's probably how long it will take me to go through all six weeks of videos. I believe it's six workouts per week.)
I would love to join the March challenge, if we continue! I will watch the posts! I can hardly believe that tomorrow is the end of February! (Boston is expecting a snowstorm this evening into Tuesday! "GREAT" way to start March, LOL!)
Best wishes to all and CHEKya-daMAWrah (Check you tomorrow)! Carole5 -
