jb1975: I never lose as fast as 8 pounds a month. 4 pounds a month is fast for me! As long as it's down, we'll get there eventually.

I'm happy to see my initial goal weight again! I wasn't sure if I'd get back down there this month.

January goal: -0.8kgs New goal: -0.95kgs more

SW: 87.8
CW: 87.0 (-0.5)

Mossy at least you got that one, I thought at this weight it'd be easier for me to drop some weight, but it's really hard! we'll get there, slow but sure.
Best to all

Jesus is good! He is the only answer to why my weigh-in is what it is!!!

Not quite goal, but I am honestly just glad I didn't gain this month.

Way to go, Jb1975! I swear, one of the best ways to break a stall is to complain about it here. It seems to scare the weight away. Not quite sure how science is going to explain it.

Yay, Sum38! I'm impressed given the challenges you had this month.
