3/22--259 pounds
3/29--250 pounds -9 (-9 total)
4/5---247 pounds -3 (-12 total)
4/12--243 pounds -4 (-16 total)
4/19--240 pounds -3 (-19 total)
4/26--238 pounds -2 (-21 total)

Goal is to get under 200 :fat:

Awesome!!!

Last week was so so with food but excellent with gym time. I'm so excited to finally move up in the weights I'm lifting, especially upper body, my weakness. Meal prepping today so I don't turn to crappy food. I looked at pics of me at my highest weight and it feels good to know I'm making positive changes. Hope everyone has a great week!!

Great job on exercising, Laurie. I'm sure those 3 pounds and more will come off!

Laurie, I wouldn't worry. The gain might be due to fluid retention, which can happen when you start exercising. If that's the case it will fall off when your body gets used to the routine.

15 lbs. to go but this morning I was starving and had 3 eggs but I hadn't had anything since a salad on tues. so I don't think it will hurt.
