01/29-181.6-(Trend Weight: 183.2)- I worked hard for this drop, often going to bed hungry. When I get off track the cravings begin full-force again and the hunger on the restarts are horrible. I wish I would remember those repercussions when I’m making the bad decisions to stuff the wrong things into my piehole. In the meantime, I’m grateful for the 2.6 lb drop this week. I’m reaching for the 170’s again and my arm is…..a..l..m..o..s..t…..long enough.

01/31-181.6-(Trend Weight: 182.9)- 2.2 lb loss this month. I know I could have done better in January but I am grateful that there is still progress as I dust off this holiday weight. I have a good feeling that I will accomplish more in the shortest month of February than I did in the longest month of January. Hope. Always Hope.

02/01-183.4-(Trend Weight: 183.0)- WTH? I did NOT expect this. Could it be the travel & restaurant from two days ago? Could it be the birthday celebration complete with cake/ice cream catching up? Could it be day 2 of no TMI? Could it be the worst sleep last night that I’ve had in years? Maybe it’s all one big ball of wax (or fat) all rolled up into one. In any case, I feel cheated when I probably shouldn’t. Looks like I’ll be spending much of this challenge chasing my own tail.

Happy Monday!
I have had a mixed week. Mostly eating well throughout the week, but I had my wine and pizza weekend rather than cooking. I thought I would have gained again, so I was very surprised to see the number on the scales this morning.

🏊‍♀️ Swim 3x per week ✅
🏋🏻‍♀️ Strength train 2x per week ❌

Total weight lost in 2024: 10.9lbs

Hello! I'm in my early 40s, and I live in the Northeastern USA. I've gained quite a bit of weight over the past few years, and I'd like to turn that trend around before it causes me any serious health problems. My primary goals for 2024 are to recover from a chronic injury and get back to a healthy (or at least healthier) weight by losing an average of 1-2 pounds per week.

Jan 1: 216.7
Jan 8: 212.3 (-4.4)
Jan 15: 209.2 (-3.1)
Jan 22: 214.5 (+5.3)
Jan 29: 207.6 (-6.9)
Feb 5: 205.6 (-2.0)

Total change for year: -11.1
Average change per week: -2.22

Week 2 reflection: I stayed flexible in week 2, with daily calorie deficits ranging from 395 to 816 and an average daily deficit of 648. This should equate to about a 1.3 pound loss, so I must still be losing water weight too. I have a few foodie friends visiting from out of town this coming Friday-Sunday, and I plan to eat at or above maintenance level with them before getting back on plan next Monday. So, I'm expecting the number on the scale to be higher next time I check in.

Week 3 reflection: I experienced a spike on the scale after an indulgent weekend, which I expected. As of today (Jan 23), I'm already down 2+ pounds since yesterday, so I don't think I set myself back too badly. I'm sure I'll experience plenty of ups and downs this year, but I'm going to ride them out and stick with this.

Week 4 reflection: Gotta love the crazy swings. I returned to my flexible, moderate approach this week, with calorie deficits ranging from 526 to 844 and averaging 664. All in all, I'm very pleased with how January went. Being flexible and eating more on days when I'm hungry has kept me from being preoccupied with food, versus always aiming for 1200 calories/per day or a 1000 calorie/day deficit.

Week 5 reflection: I started to get bored and impatient this week, but I stuck to the plan and looked for ways to vary my diet a bit. Average daily calorie deficit was 582 (range: 309 to 820). I've noticed my clothes are feeling a little looser, so that's been nice non-scale reinforcement.

Hey, I'm Crystal! ❤️ February goals are to still stick with around 1200 calories/day, 70-90 carbs and low sugar. Also to walk 5-6 days/week. I did change things up a bit, as I was doing IF 16:8. I had been doing that so long I think my body got used to it. Started OMAD on Monday (Feb 5th). Seen a little loss since last week. Slow but I'll take it.

Happy Sunday everyone!

No loss this week mostly due to overeating and under activity.

We're expecting a snowstorm in Boston late Monday night and all though Tuesday. They're not sure how much yet but it's supposed to be the biggest one so far this winter.

Best wishes for the week ahead!

@ATnowornever : welcome to this challenge and best of luck! You will find people are super nice and supportive in this group, so keep coming back! :-)

02/05-184.6-(Trend Weight: 183.2)- This has been a horrible last few days with me really going out on a rail. I made homemade chicken noodle soup to last a few days. I really didn’t need that pasta that was in it. I was totally triggered for carbs and more carbs which is pretty dangerous for my diabetes and doesn’t help my weight since diabetics tend to store it as belly fat. I know what I have to do but doing it is the hard part. But there is one thing harder, and that’s doing it consistently. Win some, lose some. Right now I’m losing lots of some.

02/12-179.6-(Trend Weight: 181.4)- Stuck to my plan most of the week with good results. Travel today for a dr. appointment.
