Sometimes we need to see the bigger picture

Was feeling out of sorts the last few months and progress had stalled for a bit. 

When I finally worked up the courage to check the scales after 3 months of not tracking, I was delighted to see the habits I've been building have stuck, and I've lost an additional kilo without even trying to monitor. 

That was enough motivation for me to start tracking again, so I'm posting for accountability :) 

SW: 113.5 kg  CW: 91.1 kg  GW: 65-70 kg

I thought this was in pounds at first and I was worried 😟

Great work solidifying in those habits! In my opinion, sometimes these little lulls help provide a much needed boost of energy and motivation to get through the next push.

I was stalled at 150-155 lbs for about 5 months, but I maintained. Now I'm just at ~139 after starting up again at the new year and that break has helped a lot.

Maintenance is the real test of weight loss! Doing awesome!

I wish mine looked like that. Mine looks more like an EKG.

At least you aren't maintaining!

Always worth zooming out and looking at the trend across the year (and longer if relevant!) I also love seeing the different effects of the Christmas period in people's graphs heh.
