Let's enjoy all the healthy first fruits of harvest while pursuing our August weight loss goals.

Join the August Weight Loss Challenge to set your goal, track it, and meet it -- with the help of a supportive and encouraging group. All the goals will be compiled into a list. As each goal is met during the month, it gets turned RED in celebration.

This thread is for weight loss goals. For your exercise goals, check out our sister thread: August Exercise Challenge

I seem to lose more weight when I set a maintenance goal than when I set a weight loss goal, so I'll try that this month.

2: 89.95 kgs; 1/20
3: 89.75 kgs; 2/20
4: 89.7 kgs; 3/20
5: 89.5 kgs; 4/20
6: 89.85 kgs; 5/20
11: 91.1 kgs; 6/20 (assuming that's water retention due to heat & allergies)
12: 90.9; 7/20
13: 90.1; 8/20
14: 90.2; 9/20
15: 90.3; 10/20
