Let’s talk about week 2 of my Winter Challenge, shall we?
Much like week 1, the biggest challenge this week came from how darn cold it has been lately. I just do not want to drink cold water or move my body. It feels like instinct to reserve energy this time of year. Still, I reached my movement goal and for that I am proud!

Weight-Loss Goal:
My realistic and main goal is to lose 8 - 10 pounds during this challenge. My “shoot for the moon” goal is to lose 15 pounds!
Realistic goal weight: 216 - 214 lbs.
“Shoot for the moon” goal weight: 209 lbs.
Starting weight: 224 lbs.
Week 1: 222 lbs. (-2 lbs)
Week 2: 220 lbs. (-2 lbs)
This week I weighed in at 220 lbs! This is a big deal for me since my weight-loss journey started (15 years ago) at 270 lbs. While I’m only 4 pounds down in this current challenge, which is a great accomplishment in itself, this specific weigh-in is a milestone of enormous proportion.
I am so proud of myself, and I’m going to keep going!
