I am so pleased with my progress in June (wow, it's gone by fast!) that I'm really excited for July. My goal will be to get into the 180s, so 189.5 is my official goal.

SW - 196
GW - 189.5

Total loss -6.5 pounds

Hi there! I think I might be up for this!

I won't start crying if I won't reach it, but I will aim for 10 lbs. That would put me just under 70 kilos, which is my big big mini-goal!

Sw:163.8
Gw: 154

Thank you EnglishMcTeach - Good luck to you too - I have lost weight on the gardenerjoy monthly thread in the past - the pressure of having to perform well for my co-challengers seems to make me put forth an additional effort. Constantly thinking: "I can't eat those potato chips because the friday weigh-in is right around the corner and I'm only half a pound lower than last friday and these chips will put 2 pounds of water on me overnight!" What an eternal struggle, but this forum really works.

YAY!!! Glad you joined! Typically people will post their weight every day. Not everyone does that, or likes to weigh-in every day, so you can pick your specific weigh-in day. Generally people who don't weigh-in every day will still check-in every day with how things are going in their journey to keep themselves accountable and make friends. You can have a look through the June challenge to get an idea for how it works.

I had said NO NO NO to weight loss challenges, but heck....I've been slacking lately and need a glamorous boost!

I'm starting a new job in August and also going to a friend's wedding the last weekend of July.

So definitely count me in.

11 lbs (5 kg) is my goal.
