Goal #1- Stay focused on me. I'm a problem solver. I tend to try and solve all of the family problems. Then I get "lost" in there, not taking care of me.
Goal #2- Learn to accept the compliments on my weight loss. I still get uncomfortable, but I'm getting better.
Goal #3- Get to goal of 135. Not going to stress over it. I had about a 4 week stall. Went crazy over it! Then decided not to worry about it. Lost weight! Go figure!!😄
Side question. I'm definitely a Meadowlark. I'm up every morning by 0400. In bed by 7:30 -8:00pm!

It's interesting how are weight loss affects others. Some of my friends are very happy for me. They know how I've struggled for years. Unfortunately, other family members and friends have not been very supportive.
Last weeks comment was, "eat something, are you sick?" As one of my relatives put a big bowl of macaroni and cheese in front of me. When I turned it down she got offended. She told me you used to eat it. Then told me I sure have changed. Really!😒

My second week post surgery, I was back to walking. I walked a lot pre surgery. I had no issues. Hard to believe, now I'm running 3 miles 4 times a week.

Gosh, I was just talking about this today! If one more person tells me I'm getting too thin, I'll scream! I agree with you, when I was heavy no one said anything about my weight. Even when I had constant back and knee pain. Now I'm exercising daily without pain and I'm losing too much weight. Really!!

You definitely have to look out for yourself. I learned that the hard way. I was trying to "fix" my spouse's bad eating habits. I thought that since I was eating better, he would also. That didn't happen. I made sure I took care of myself and try to set the good eating example.

I just noticed last week that I made my goal that I set when I first started my journey.
I was stalled for so long, I decided not to worry about losing. I stayed consistent with my exercise and changing up what I ate. Then the scale moved! I'm going to set a new goal, 5 lbs less and see what happens.

I really like this challenge! Can't wait to see some definition in💪 my arms at the end of the month.
Status still losing, even if its slowly. Current weight 141.9. I keep hovering over my goal wt. I'm determined to reach it by the end of this challenge.

Just returned from vacation. DRUM Roll, please! Did not gain any weight!!😆. This has NEVER happened before. My last vacation I gained 10 lbs.! I ran or walked every morning on the beach. If I really wanted something food wise, I tasted a couple of bites and that was it. The best vacation ever!!

Hello everyone, I didn't do well in the May challenge. I let work and personal issues get in the way. Ready for the June challenge! Goal #1. Get to my personal goal weight of 140. I've been at 144 for about 3 weeks now. I'm not going to stress over it. I had my employee physical a couple of weeks ago. I was within range for BP, waist circumference, glucose etc. I was pumped!! I haven't been in range for those goals in years! So I must be doing something right!🤣 Goal #2. Increase my jogging to 4 times a week. Goal is to participate in a 5K run\walk before the summer is over.

I'm losing slower now also. In the past I would panic, comparing myself to others etc. I had to let that go. We all have different shapes and metabolisms. I run 4 times a week and strength train 3 times a week. I feel fantastic. I'm wearing smaller sizes now than when I was this weight in the past. One step at a time. We will all get there.
