thanks Joy

start: 14st 13lb / 209lb
target: 14st 10lb / 206lb
target loss: 3lb

I'm down into sub-15st weight, & sub-30 BMI, so I'm "only" overweight now - yay! so I'm going to keep up the good work & aim for 3lb loss this month.

Welcome, MrBadger!

I've been struggling and avoiding the scale. But it wasn't that bad when I finally stepped on it, so it seems I've been mostly successful in my struggle. That's a reasonable start to the month!

May goal: -1 kg, Weigh 20x

4: 88.6, 1/20x

I was on vacation, so as expected I went up a little, even with doing A LOT of walking.
Hoping to get it down before my next little trip near the end of this month.
so for me for May, my month will end on 5/22 since we leave 5/23. My goal is to get below 180.
5/4: 183.1
5/5: 182.6

My birthday was on Friday. Putting that firmly behind me, I'm ready to get more serious about my goal for the rest of the month. How is everyone else doing?

Thank you all and Happy birthday Joy!
I had a family reunion this weekend, at least I didn't over eat much. I am very motivated to get to 90 kilos but my body is screaming for sugar, I have cravings for sugar since sunday, I hope they go away soon. I am not giving up without fighting!

8/05: 92.3 (203.4)
16/05: 91.8 (202.3)

May goal: -4 kg (8.8 pounds)

I.wanna.be.cute keep up the fight.
Joy that sounds like a reasonable & attainable goal.
I’ve been unmotivated… so much going on and no time (or more accurately I have chosen not to make the time).
looking forward to next week when we’ll get away for a bit.
can’t wait to be back in my house when I can get into a new routine.
