  • Quote: Hang in there, the purpose of the thread is not only to shed weight but to stay on plan as well and who says you have to lose 14pounds! If the only weight you are able to shed this month is the 4pounds you gained, then you're a winner cos you're less 4pounds. And if you sign out, that means we're short of one person to motivate us and you're short of 60-something people to motivate you!
    Hey MaryOjo, I only just saw this! Thanks so much for your support, your motivation and positive attitude is so inspiring.

    I've actually put on another pound so am currently at 145, so I'm aiming to lose those 5lb in the next 12 days, to at least have maintained over this month rather than gaining. I'm slowly getting back in the weight-loss frame of mind and feeling better about the whole thing so once I've kicked this cold into touch I'm ready for a 1st September challenge! 14lb loss between now and September 1st is my new goal, and I'm determined to succeed this time!
  • Well I weighed myself this morning and I am 1lb past the goal and still have the rest of the month. Shooting for 15lbs now. Great job everyone and keep it up!
  • Congrats KittyKat1465! That is awesome!
  • 2 more pounds this morning, that's 7lbs total so far!
  • Start Jul-01: 273
    Jul-08- 273
    Jul-15- 272
    Jul-22- 275 +3

    Goal: 263

    I am having problems this week; I hope to improve performance this weekend and next week.
  • 251 today. 6.5lbs this week. 14lbs so far this month.

    My deadline is over. It was a huge success. I am going to celebrate by sleeping in tomorrow. (Which DH says "ya right" to b/c I'm not good at sleeping in, but just the knowledge that I COULD sleep in is a big psychological boost for me)

    I'll work on updating the spreadsheet at lunch today.

  • I had conflicting weights as my scale is wonky...lol! So I jumped onto the Wii fit board and weighed myself...it said 260.5. I'll take it since my regular scale would vary 5 lbs everytime I got on it...ugh.

    So I am at 260.5! 1.5 lbs away from the 10lbs for the month! I haven't seen the 250's in along time
  • weighed in today, still at 235 so no loss or gain for the week. to be honest, im quite pleased considering this has been a strange week for me, i've been off work since monday and really needed a rest so havent done much exercise. good luck everyone xx
