    09/16-193.6-(Trend Weight: 191.8)- From bad to worse. And more travel (2 separate days) coming this week which also Greatly Affects the scale for me. I feel like I’m fighting a losing battle. However, I am going to stand my ground and commit to a better number by next week. You can do this Donna!

    09/23-193.8-(Trend Weight: 193.6)- It has been a week of extra weight due to travel which I am slowly working back down. I hope to string some good days together this week and make a dent in my goals. Doing some yard work will help keep me moving. So many leaves already! I’ve just got to watch the diet, specifically the night time snacks especially if I have a good daily calorie burn as it tends to bring out the hunger monsters. But I’m going to stay positive and say, “180’s, HERE I COME!”.

    Hello,
    I have been struggling to reach my goal weight. I am trying to build some muscle so I know that I will see my weight fluctuate (which is just annoying but I get it). My goal overall is to tone up. I just had a small foot procedure so I can’t exercise yet, however I am motivated to start. Good luck to all. Start date 7/19.
