Pebbles, Great that you have joined in for this last bit, will be fantastic if you reach goal in this challenge!!!

Touchmytoes, when do you return from your hols?

[georgiad]

I'm in! I'm 210.5 atm and would like to lose 8.5lbs in August, so 202lbs s'il vous plait!

[daisy5819]

234.8 SW I'd like to lose 9 lbs in August so 225 is my goal weight.

[pebbles0916]

Ellie ~~ Thanks!!!

[SoulSurvivor]

I'm definitely up for this! It may be too ambitious to aim for 10lbs but I would rather set myself a real challenge!!
SW = 257
CW = 257
GW = 247

[Rainbow]

sw: 230
cw: 230 lb
gw: 226

and won't be able to do the final weigh in until 1st September.

I go away for 2 and a half weeks next week hence the unambitious goal - I know it's very unlikely I'll be 226 or less at the end of the month but joining in will still motivate me to watch what I eat for the month. I only lost 1lb in two weeks so hoping for a whooooshhh before we go away! I've also increased exercise for the 10 days before going away and trying to eat extra healthily and drink extra water.

Hiya i come back from hols on right at the end just in time for the bank hol so could do a weigh in then be interesting to see how much i would have put on although me and the other half have both said we are not gonna go nuts with the food out there..i cant really eat much when im away to be honest..its the drink that will get me!!

not feeling too hot the last few days, have headache and sniffles and so very very tired so no gym since saturday which isnt like me will hopefully go today ...

[TamiL]

I would like to join in! My goal is only 3 lbs this month, I am currently 128 and would like to see 125. I thought about going lower but honestly I really don't feel like I want to be much smaller. Gosh, never thought those words would come out of my mouth, LOL I am almost 45 and this is probably a really good weight for my body.

[Ellie R]

Welcome All,

Rainbow & Touchmytoes, the hols will be hard, but do try and weigh in that last day - I know you can do it.....I stayed the same on my America trip, and didn't deprive myself too much, think it's just being a little bit careful, and also not having that, 'screw it, I ate a burger yesterday, so now it doesn't matter if I eat a pizza today' kind of attitude!!

Welcome, georgiad, Daisy, SoulSurvivor and TamiL - we are honoured to have 2 in the challenge about to reach goal with us...

I am going to amend my previous post to include everyone's details at the top of the page
