  • Rennie -- As always -- thanks for keeping this thread active! :-)

    I definitely had a loss last month, but I had such a huge gain to start -- only 216.4 or less will be a real loss! I made it to 217

    I'm ready to move my ticker.

    Also my month long bet with family started yesterday, $400 up for grabs!! So I'm counting on you guys to cheer me on and make sure my numbers are steadily trending down!

    Good luck on losing for July!! :-)
  • You're quite welcome

    LGW you made a great come back and wow on the $400. You can do it. I have full faith in you. I wish I had a bet like that. I might actually make some progress. SmallSteps has a challenge from July 4th to Labor day, I'm hoping to be at 160 firmly by then.

    I gained 1.6lbs for the month but overall I've gained 21.2lbs from my lowest weight.
  • love2b150 thank you for starting this thread once again. It's really helped me to read about everyone's journey and weighing in daily and being accountable.

    Looking forward to seeing the 220s this month.

  • So, back in the day (maybe 2-3 years ago), Sandi ran a points challenge which was great for accountability. I had a lot of success with that so I am going to follow that model for my daily check-in and get back on track!

    Here is how it's going to go. I will do the 3 things that work; food, water, & exercise. I decide what my food plan will be, how much water to drink, and how much exercise to get every day. And every day I have the opportunity to earn 4 points.

    2 point for sticking with my food plan (no splitting points here, either I stuck to my plan or I didn't)
    1 point for drinking the amount of water I decided on
    1 point for getting some exercise. (If I don't exercise on a given day - I DO NOT get a point for exercise - even if I planned it that way) Sorry, no 1/2 points.

    ~~~
    Food: 1850 calories or less
    Water: 2 liters or more
    Exercise: Do some kind of intentional exercise for 20 minutes or more
    Goal: To be on plan 80% of the time or more
    July 1 Weight: 340.8
    July 31 Weight: TBD
