I've gone entirely in the wrong direction. That's happened to me before when I set the goal as maintenance. Some part of me thinks that means I can eat anything I want, but that's not how it works!

August goal: maintain below 83kgs

1: 82.75 kgs
2: 82.7
4: 83.05
6: 82.5
7: 82.25

I have met my goal and then some for August!! I won't make another goal since I am thrilled to be below 150. It's funny how our bodies work sometimes. We can plug away and hardly lose and then all of a sudden it seems it really drops! Persistence does pay off eventually.
Congrats flower1, you've really been on a roll lately! :cp:

Hang in there everyone, we've got this!

I'm back in my maintenance range. That's good, but it largely came about due to a sudden loss of appetite. I tested for COVID, but it's not that. A puzzle.

start: 13st 12.5lb / 194.5lb
target: 13st 9lb / 191lb
target loss: 3.5lb

end: 13st 11.25lb / 193.25lb
loss: 1.25lb

so I got nowhere near my target, but I lost a little which is better than the alternative. to be honest,while it's still summer & nice enough to be doing things outdoors, I'm more focussed on being active & improving my fitness than weight loss. I'm not going to claim I'm piling on muscle, but my trousers are noticeably looser after not really very much weight loss recently. :)

well done to everyone who hit their targets & see you all in the September thread.
