Since there was a little bit of interest...

First, a May challenge update: I weighed in today 2.6 pounds heavier than on May 1, not 5 pounds lighter as hoped.

Anyway, for June, I aim to

-lose a little weight
-get substantial exercise of the know-it-when-I-see-it kind 5 days out of 7
-eat at least 1/2 cup of leafy greens 5 days out of 7

Since baby is 9 months old and I don't seem to have gained fat while pregnant, my starting weight is basically my pre-pregnancy weight, which I was back to within 2 weeks of birth. My final goal is really rough though because I have been overweight for about 9 years and lean mass might be more or less than it was when I was younger.

So my starting/current/very rough goal is: 203.0/166.7/135.0

I last weighed 135 in 1999, the year I turned 21!

Current minigoal, 161 by July 1

Congratulations on all the weight loss, Theresa.

We have very close numbers in our start and current weight.

June goals --
Eat healthier (no skipping meals and less fast food on the go)
No Pepsi
Daily exercise (stationary bike, treadmill, or swim laps)
Increase Water (I had a dehydration headache today -- not fun. )

205/169/149 or size 11/12 -- whichever is most comfortable for me.

Work to drop 5lbs this month.

Well, so much for that. I slacked off of logging in my beloved DietPower, perhaps because I didn't want to face the truth about my caloric intake. And the Coke, ugh. I've done just a little walking. At least I was back down to 163.7 today somehow, but the trend has still been 165-167. My lowest post-pregnancy weight has been 162.9, one month ago today. I set yet another weight minigoal today (157 for August 1) in DietPower, hoping to feel more motivated to log again by seeing the lower number today than I have seen for a little while.

Oh well, the last day of the month. How did it go, Michaela?

I'm 164.7 so doubt I will be 161 tomorrow I've been eating broccoli more regularly... even had a raw carrot yesterday (not a leafy green but I could use even more of an increase in orange/yellow vegetables.) Little exercise. Hoping for a better July
