    Hi everyone,

    @Rainbow2300, Sorry to hear about the troubling dizziness symptoms. Is your blood pressure okay? I had dizziness for a few days late last year and it turned out I had an ear infection. It might be a good idea to see a doctor, if you can, just to try to figure out what's going on. Best wishes!🌟

    Dear Donna @deepwoodslady, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend! That's got to be so hard. I am also a stress eater and this just adds an extra layer of challenge that makes it difficult to stay strong. The worst feeling is helplessness when you are unable to ease the pain of someone you love or make them better! It's so very sad and I will definitely say a prayer for your beloved friend, Diane!🙏🏻 I'm glad you are there to comfort her and hopefully ease her passing.

    Intro: I am 43 years old, 5'2" with a starting weight of 146 lbs. With being petite, EVERY pound is a battle. I have three little kids - ages 4, 6, and 8 -- and my hubby travels for work. So, cooking heathy meals the kids will actually eat, as well as trying to find time to exercise are struggles for me.

    Beginning weight: 146 lbs
    End of Challenge Goal: 139 lbs

    January 8: 146 lbs.
    January 15: 144.2 lbs.
    January 22: 143 lbs.
    January 29: 143.8 lbs.
    February 5: 141.4 lbs.
    February 12: 141.8 lbs.
    February 19: 141.8 lbs.

    Weekly Update We went out of town this past weekend, so I am glad to see I maintained. My goal for this next week is to see that scale MOVE. I have not had a very productive February...

    Wow, @alwixon - that's pretty impressive, maintaining while out of town! I've been basically maintaining at 153 since January 1st. I want to scale to move too (DOWNWARD, that is!) I know what you mean about every pound being a battle - I am only 5'3". Best wishes!💖 (Carole)

    I forgot to weigh on Wednesday, and I haven't been able to get on here and update until now, but here's where I am! Even though I haven't been updating consistently, I think it's still been helpful to be a part of this challenge!
    Sickness and being off-routine held me back for a few weeks, but I'm back on track and close to hitting my goal!

    I was on vacation this past week, so ai am pleased with myself that I gained less than 2 lbs! That is progress for me!! Usually I would gain 5 lbs or more!

    So, back to the routine and back to the grind. Just do it!

    @Walela617 I hadn’t seen your reply. Thank you for being a friend! 😉 I recently had a physical. Nothing unusual showed in my blood work and no ear issues. (I too thought dizziness a factor) It’s better today but I need to be careful bending over. If it continues- I’ll do more tests. I really want to get back to working out!! This has been the longest Feb.winter. There’s so much to do to get ready for Spring!!! Let’s go!!! 😉
