Combo of the holidays, stress from work, and a pipe bursting in our back room (everything ruined and covered in mold) have me set back for this round. I have maintained from round 1, but I am hoping I can pull through for round 2 😭😅

Breakthrough moment last night. Sat down to watch football (yay Commanders Doink our way to Detroit! 🏈) had a smallish bowl of chips and an actual serving size (not an entire container) of buffalo dip with carrots and felt satisfied. Like I was doing my football thing, not denying myself (well no beer because I'm doing dry January but didn't actually miss that too much 😆) having football snacks, but having control without really even thinking about it. I just grabbed a bowl instead of the bag of chips, dished out the dip and grabbed a bag of carrots like this is how it goes. Is this that moderation thing people keep talking about? 😂

Happy New Year! Came back from a 2 1/2 week vacation and even though I wasn’t super strict with my diet, I’m super excited that I even lost weight. Glad I was active on the trip and have more motivation starting my wellness new year a little later. I hope everyone is doing well and staying the course

Ugh, things have stalled out a bit after the holidays, thanks to tons of dessert and a pulled back muscle from moving suitcases. I need to get back into the habit of tracking (cleaned up my diet now post holidays but it's maybe not at a deficit) and hopefully back to the gym soon if my back let's me. Feel free to share any tips you have.

Made round one, on to round two! How's everyone else doing?

I’m thrilled to have month 1 in the books. I couldn’t be happier to be starting the New Year already on the right track. Month 2 will be challenging for me as I have work travel and will be away from home for 2 weeks, but I’m in the right mindset. Whether you won Round 1 or not, keep going!

Hows everyone finding it after christmas? Its very hard to get back in track im finding!! Also - Has anyone else joined any of the new year transformers for extra motivation?

I’ve hit my monthly goal weight. Very proud! Holidays were fun but so hectic and a lot of family stuff that sometimes leads me to stress-eat… I wish I could do my official weigh-in today… but I got this. It will feel so good to have month one behind us.

I’m feeling good going into the weekend and I hope everyone else has had a great week. I’m really close to my month-one goal, which is inspiring me to stay on track over the weekend. I am so happy that I started this challenge when I did. I’m really excited to keep up the slow and steady progress towards my 6-month goal!

How did everyones weekends go? Feeling motivated going into the new week?
