Thanks Tuscany and Joy for your feedback. I had set a lofty goal of 9 lbs for this month. I felt that since I was just restarting dieting I would lose some extra water weight and have that first big week loss? It never happened. I don't know if I will hit my goal regardless of my focus. I skipped my running for the last two days to see if maybe my sore calves were holding water and I think it helped. I still kept my calories in check just gave my body a little rest. Back at the running this morning and feel extra motivated by the validation from the scale.
Thanks for the congrats, gardenerjoy! Lene: Glad to see you've had a few good days on the scale...and gardenerjoy makes a good point when she says "it's not how fast they leave, it's how long they stay gone". I'll have to remember that little gem!

Happy weekend everyone! Everyone is doing so great
An 8000 calorie deficit is incredible, I'm sure you'll have a whoosh right around the corner. The past two nights I've eaten where I couldn't completely count calories/points, and I'm sure my eyes have overestimated my portion sizes.
Its so crazy how our bodies work. I lost over 5 lbs in the first ten days of the month, and I'm really hoping I lose another 2 in the last 20 days for the challenge and I've probably been 90% on plan.

junebug: Nice whoosh! That is motivating...good for you.
Turtle: Good luck getting to your July goal. I see you've been true to your username in the 2nd half of July! But...looking at your trend...I really think you'll see 173 soon. But no more 90% of plan; that 10% can mess you up!
I know right! (Its probably not that high. One binge day in 6 weeks. Definately not proud of it, and not acceptable, especially because it seems to have derailed the nice slope of the downward curve for me.
I should have picked rabbit instead of turtle, what was I thinking

I'm going to make sure I tighten the belt today stick to mostly salads and lean protein and drink a small lake's worth of water. I can't take back yesterday but I sure can control today!

Way to go, Greyhound (aka Turtle)...if it sticks, you're at goal...woohoo! As for me, another up this morning. Did I mention I don't like ups? At this rate, I don't see me making goal.
Under 173 again! I'm going to hit "the other TOM" soon though, and last month I went up 2 lbs overnight when that happened. Hormones, such a pain!!!
Tuscany - A 9 lb goal is a ton for someone in the 150s. I would LOVE to be in the 150s
Sum38 - No amputations! We have such bad humitity here. If you look at my numbers after camping, I dropped a couple lbs after being in air conditioning for a day. Its crazy how weather can effect weight loss. If it rains, you can't go outside and exercise, if its too hot, too cold...
