Rather an up and down week for me but my average for the week is 142.9 pounds, with a high of 146.3 and a low of 141.4 pounds! That was today on my 'official' weigh-in day - how lucky is that!
Since the start of the challenge, in four weeks, I have lost 4.4 pounds so I think that is nearly 2kg. I'm happy with that and only have 1.4 pounds to go until I reach my revised target. I wonder if I'll manage that before Valentine's Day?

Things are looking up! Looks like the bloat I got from my candy binge went away. But now the TOTM bloat is here. Ugh. I was still 139.6 on Monday, but have since gone up. I'm crossing my fingers that a big chunk of that is just due to the bloat this week. So I'm expecting a nice weigh-in next week so long as I continue to behave

I finally got my period for one thing, in fact the first this year >.>. TMI maybe, but I've never missed or so much as had an irregular ToM before, and I've had a few of them. I guess with a busy seasonal period at work, transversing to a 2-3 weeks of being sick on top of stepping up exercise my body freaked out? I have no real explanation for it, but am relieved all the same (not that I or any other girl enjoys the process, but you know It's a "healthy" sign your body is functioning as a female body of a certain age should, want for children or not...).
As such I've had to contend with being constantly bloated for, well, over a month? Both from increased exercise and that ToTM which never came. The scale hasn't moved past showing a slight weight gain, so for now I've resolved to weigh myself in a week and get on with other things. I'll admit my eating/ logging isn't the best, but 1) fast weight loss isn't so much of an issue as I just have 2-3 ibs to go (I'll gladly take a pound or so a month or whatever. Honestly I personally couldn't keep up with logging for the rest of my life) 2) I'm sticking with ADF (health reasons, and I enjoy practising it), so whatever I do it'd have to be impressive to actually gain weight over a longer period of time.
Even with that said, I know I'm losing. My infamously awful upper thighs are looking a little less terrible these days. Guess I'm just waiting it out to get these last couple of pounds off, but I'm fine with waiting it out.
Anyway, best of luck everyone!

So, I have one week to lose 1.2 lbs. I think that if I am very good this week I can pull it off. We'll see. Thanks so much for the challenge to motivate me. When we started I was thinking I would lose more than 1kg. Who knew it was going to be so hard to lose just that!!

The good news is that I FINALLY broke into the 130s. I have never weighed below 141 in my adult life and I am ecstatic about it. My ultimate goal weight is just within reach Though I'm not sure how much of this loss is water. I hope not too much.

This morning I was at 135.6! I'm sure this is water, but I'll take it for now!
