Ok, so week two and finally some movement on the scale although it already said 67.2 on Wednesday last week, but has been fluctuating since. I kept to my 1680 daily average calories and I'm on target for this week too. I've done 40 mins strength training YouTube workouts 3 times a week and on track with that too. We've also gone back to the local rugby field with our doglet, who loves it, for a half jog/walk (5 times around the field) and some incline push-ups and tricep dips three times a week. Yesterday we also went up and down the little stadium's steps a few times so we are staying active.
Of course hubby's loss is immediate - 2.7kg since the 6th and he's not even doing any resistance training - whereas I am still waiting for my whoosh. Will keep it going until the 31st when I'm hoping to have some good results and will take measurements then as well. Considering trying out maintenance calories then (for my goal weight) which I figure would be 1960 a day either just for the first week of Feb or for the month. I feel like I'm a bit too focused on the scale lately and need to just let go a little bit and see what happens. I'm too focused on these last 2 kgs (which in fact I would like to be 3.5) and I think it's just giving me stress so surely if I just carry on doing what I know works I will get there and then maintenance can finally begin.
My diary entries are generally for me to keep track of what I've been doing through the years so support is welcome, but I'm not really looking for advise so please don't suggest IF/low carb and such - I've tried various things and I know what works for me, thanks!

I hope your plan works. The workouts sound good and it sure is fun to have our puppies help us with fitness goals. :0)

Thanks BinkyTexas! Yes, it's such a blessing that she still goes jogging with us. She's turning 15 this year.

She amazes us, but we're keeping an eye on her to prevent injury and if she starts to get too tired we'll decrease the distance and/or time, but for now she's still always keen.
