My goal is still to stay under 120 lbs. I seem to maintain here, already work out every day, and my calories are at 1500 and I don't want to go lower. (120 lbs on my higher scale in NY, my lower scale in PA reads 1lb lower)
Fantasy goal weight- under 110
Goal weight- 112 lbs
I'm okay where I am though
July recap:
Start Weight (= high weight): 146.2
End Weight (= low weight): 139.6
Total loss: –6.6 pounds
August Start weight: 140.2
Goal Weight: 134.8 (–5.4 pounds)
8/1 -- 140.2
8/2 -- 140.4
haha wrong direction. I'm not worried though, obviously it's just a tiny bit and I started this month doing something new: just taking the first scale reading I see, none of this obsessive weighing throughout the morning to see how low I can get the number to go (it's sometimes nearly 2 pounds!). It's exhausting, making me crazy and doesn't serve any purpose other than giving me a better number to post here That being said, these "first numbers" are lower than any days I saw last month, so I definitely had a drop...
According to my "plan", I was supposedly going to move to maintenance around Sept 1/Labor Day so we'll see if I can at least get to 135ish by then. It is a seriously long shot, given how slowly things are moving.
Happy August, everyone! Congrats on all your hard work in July - amazing! I think we all deserve medals. But the losses are their own best reward.
Special thanks to Anexia, for starting the thread!

I figured out what would help me control my eating on vacation: wanting to stay healthy! If I eat badly, e. g., lots of carbs/sugar/dairy/artificial flavors/colors/preservatives, etc., I can get sinus troubles, and interference with sleep, both of which drive me crazy. Here's to a motivation that can keep me on the "straight and narrow" diet path. Yay!
