I finally am seeing lower numbers again after a bit of a frustrating couple of weeks and am down 3 lbs. since the beginning of the month. The next 2 weeks should be interesting as we're on vacation. Although I don't anticipate the eating to be completely on plan we are going to be doing a ton of active things so am excited about how it will all look after we get back.

stepped on the scale this morning and it said 222! that means ive lost 2.6 pounds this week.

only 7.4lbs left to go for january!

Thanks, RtF . . . your words help a lot!!

Had another good OP day. Tomorrow will be a little tricky with a potluck at church and my son wanting to make supper. I'm taking a nice lean chili to the potluck, so I know there's something filling and OP there.

Have been doing walk/jogs except for today... today I painted well over 2 1/2 hours, climbing a ladder, arm in constant motion, etc... but only recorded 1 1/2 hrs of it in my MFP so I could make sure it didn't give me too high of a calorie allotment Tomorrow morning is weigh in... fingers crossed that soon will be to my regular ticker again

I'm in for 8lbs! Working on intuitive eating and starting tomorrow, at least 30 min. of exercise every day.

Hello all..I've been perusing the site for quite some time, and today I finally registered. I've gained 80+lbs in a span of a couple of years, to begin with I was still at unhealthy weight of 200lb, but now I'm at 268, but what I would do to weigh 200lbs again! But in any case, for this month I'd like to aim for a loss of 10-15lbs.

Official morning weigh in was 189.4. I usually don't get big jumps, but with being able to start my cardio back up, strength trainings as well - I guess that's my body's way of giving approval

Start: 207.2
1/8: 206 (-1.2)
1/15:
1/22:
1/29:
1/31:
Goal: 203.2

Well I maintained this week (I weighed in yesterday morning). I decided to try just eating less and not counting calories, but that didn't work so well. So I'm going to start counting calories again, as that is what worked for me a few years ago. Will hopefully have time to clean off my treadmill today so that I can begin using it again. I want to get in the habit of walking at least 2 miles before work in the mornings (at least 3 days a week). Yesterday was my 25th birthday, so I kind of indulged a bit yesterday. My boyfriend and I went out to eat and then had cake that night with some finger foods (which were high calorie). My parents are taking me to Outback tonight, but I have a lower calorie meal that I love their and have already counted all my calories for the day. It's a good start to the new week!

ok! I had a binge yesterday, but am happy to say it didn't derail my weight loss.
In order to reach my monthly goal (and both of my long-term goals) I need to lose 3 lbs a week.

This week I am down 4 lbs even Here I come weight loss!!

I'm looking forward to catching up here this afternoon, but need to get my behind to the GYM first!! Will be back in a few hours.

Official morning weight in 285...down from 293...8 lbs.

Chickadee - Hope you had a great workout!!! I am chomping down on a protein plus bar right now and hydrating, then I am heading out for a walk/jog myself Great day for it... 68 right now and super sunny
