Count me in. Im brand new and am starting on Monday after this Canada Day weekend. I'd like to see 15 lbs gone by July 30th.

Thanks! I try to keep my head on straight, but sometimes it is really tough ;)

Ok, so I had WI #2 today and I lost only 2 lbs from last week. However, I'm bloat- central as my period is due.. now... like anytime it should be here... I'm counting the minutes ughh. I weighed myself a few days ago (I weigh myself about twice a week, can't help it), and the scale was a little lower than today, so I think once all the bloat goes away, I should be fine.

Good luck everyon!

Well I had my weigh in this morning and had a gain of .7 but had a loss of 1 inch. This is my first gain, was not too happy about it but I know I did everything I was suppose to do so I don't know what is going on. Keeping my head high and moving on to the next week!

Wow, I've been gone for a few days and I return to a wonderful response to the July challenge!!!
I love doing these challenges, it's always nice to have the extra support!!
I have my first July weigh in on July 6th bright and early in the morning!!
I'm almost back to my weight before stopping IP in Feb, so here's to hoping it all goes well this week!!!

I weighed in this morning so I can get going on those 15 pounds! Good luck everyone!

My weight this morning was 158.4. My goal is 12 lbs so it would be 146.4. In May, my husband took our dog in for her annual checkup. She weighted 147 lbs! I am so close to my goal of weighing less than our dog! She is a mastiff/bloodhound mix, so it is a big dog!

I weighed in this morning on home scale at 191.6. I would like to lose 15 for the month of June (really I would like to lose 20, but I am being realistic)!

I'm in as well!! 15lbs for the month of July.. Let's go WOOT WOOT!! :D

Alright, I'll do it too! 15 lbs for the month of July. Down to 143, come on me!

I'm in too. My hope is to be at goal by the end of July... That's 10.5 lbs away... I might change my goal weight, but for now it's 152 (healthy BMI).

I weighed in at 159 officially on 7/1. My goal is to get out of the 150's this month, so I am looking at 9.2 pounds for this challenge!

Hi All,
I am joining the July Challenge also. I want to lose 12 pounds in July..around 3 lbs a week. My weigh in is 178 today. so my goal would be 166 by the end of July.
This is 4th of July Barbecue weekend. We are having guests tonight and cooking ribs. I plan to eat salad and a plain lean burger..My main temptation will be staying away from the wine!

I'm new to the IP program but would love to join the challenge. I plan to lose 10 pounds by July 31st.:carrot:

Hope everyone has a good IP Monday. Good luck to everyone who has a holiday and celebrations!

I have stalled at 270 since mid June (too many slip ups) I am back on track starting now. I want to be down to 255 by the end of July. Lets do this!

First WI for July and I am down 3.2lbs:) Good start, on my way to 10lbs this month;) Have a great OP day everyone!

Im in... I have a 25th class reunion coming up the first part of August and I would love to be out of the 150s.... since I just started, don't know if its possible, but if I don't make it, it won't be from lack of trying!

Officially weighed in at 157.4 this morning. Not too shabby, seeing how it was only 5 days after my last WI. Only 7.5# to go for this challenge ;)

1 pound down by my scale ..2 more days for official weigh in!

I'm In. I would like to lose 15 lbs in July.

Ok so weigh in #3 for me, down 3.5 lbs, which puts me at 162.5 lbs. I'm happy :) I have 7.5 lbs to go to meet my goal for July. I cannot wait to see the 150's again!

Keep up the good work everyone!

2.2 lbs down for my first weigh in for July :)

Am I the only one waiting and going from Friday to Friday for the July weigh in? My weekly weigh in is tomorrow but I was going to wait until Friday to post here since that makes one week. I guess it really doesn't make a difference. I was just curious.

Count me in! I just started IP on Monday so I'm not sure what to expect. I know I will lose a lot the first week, but not sure what to expect in the following weeks. I will start off with 10 pounds for the month of July. Good luck everyone! Here's to all of us staying OP this month!!!:hug:

I weigh in on Friday :D @ 8:30 am pacific time

I weigh in on Thursdays! :D

I weigh in on Thursdays also but I just thought since July started on a Friday I'd wait until Friday to post here. I will always weigh in on Thursday for my weekly weigh ins. Like I said, doesn't matter a whole lot. ;)

2lbs down for first weigh in for July---I want to lose 15lbs this month. Correction, I will lose 15 lbs this month!

Okay, had my weigh in...drum roll please....ONE pound!!! Just 14 more to go! Sigh...I am doing everything I can. More protein.

I'm down 2.25 lbs this week. And only 8.25lbs to goal... I might move my goal again, but am hoping to get to 152 by the end of the month. Oh, and I'm going to add "fit in a size 6" to my goal as well... Some of my 8's are starting to feel roomy. I love that!

:carrot:WAY TO GO, SKINNY WOMAN!! CONGRATS!!:carrot:

:cheer: CONGRATS!!! You are well on your way to the 15 pounds!!

My weigh in is Friday also Pacific Time.

Congrats Watkat and PixlKitty4. You are doing it!

First weigh in for July -2lbs. One step at a time here I come!!

Count me in...down 1 lb so far...made it into the 160s....totally pumped. Love, love, love this program...THIS IS MY LAST DIET!!!!!!!!!!

First weigh in for July - minus 3 pounds!

I'm up for a July challenge. I'm new to the boards. But I've been doing IP since late Dec 10'. I'm 51lbs down. Lost 0.4 last week for the 1st July WI. And aiming to lose 10lbs by the end of the month.
Let's see what tomorrow brings!! :)
