Last day of the month!!! How did everyone do? I didn't do as well as I would have liked. I only lost 4 of the 9 I wanted too, but that's 4 pounds less than the beginning of the month. The business trip mid-month really threw things off. Luckily, September looks to be nice and quiet. So, while I only got about halfway to goal, I'm optimistic about next month.

I came up short by 3 pounds...not to shaby, but not as good as I'd hoped. My Sep also looks a little more calm...hopefully I can get back in the exercise mode. No matter how little I eat, if I don't exercise, I don't lose anything.

Congrats Jen

Well - I reached my August goal but I had to take my pants off to do it

My September goal is 13lbs. Just hope I can keep losing the average 3 that I have been.

Congrats to everyone! Even if you didn't make goal. We are going through a fabulous journey and have to keep our eyes on the big picture and the little changes that occur besides the scale.

Here's to a new month!

Candi.....I took almost everything off and still came up a bit short!! LOL

I think my goal was 139 (can't find my post & didn't do a ticker!). My home scale says 142 this morning!

After being stuck so much this month, I'm happy with the 142. It was my goal for this Friday's WI. We'll see what the center's scale reads in a couple of days. 142 would put me at a total (preMRC) loss of 25 lbs!!

My original goal was below 170, or a ten pound loss. I lost about half that. I had a weekend vacation trip, and I ate terribly. For three weeks of this month I was up and down and basically stayed the same. So, honestly, I'm happy that I've lost half that! I don't weigh until Friday, so I don't have "official" results, but on my home scale I've lost, so I'm not worried. I may even have lost more than five by Friday.

September is pretty quiet for me, too, so I'm setting another ten pound goal, which will put me at my pre-pregnancy weight, and I really think I'll be able to make that.

Well, I totally blew it.

I'm going for 10 lbs for September though.

SEPTEMBER Mini Goal:


Well, I guess I will participate in this "mini~goal" too! Based on my track record, I could likely lose 8lbs during the month of September. (August was 1/2 of the that unfortunately.) I am leaving on a trip next week for a week....but plan to maintain at least. I will plan for 8lbs off by the end of September That will put me at 174lbs.

My goal was 8 pounds, and I managed to actually stay the same. I did go to Vegas for a week and, to be honest, ate my way through the town. So, no loss for me. My last day OP is 25 October, then go into maintenance. So, my long term goal is 17 pounds, so, for September, I am going to shoot for a 10 pound month.

My goal was 10 lbs. Didn't make it--didn't even come close. BUT--today is a new month!!
