My weight has gone up from my low. If I want to keep some of my COVID loss, it's time to figure out some new things.

How is your new thing going, WendyWants2Change?

Joy, sorry to hear you had COVID. I had it in Feb 2021… it sucks… watch out for long symptoms (the fatigue & brain fog is real).

my “new thing” is going well after a weekend of celebrating, the scale was DOWN this morning… hoping I can keep it going that way.
🤞

I need to find a New “new thing” for September
So disappointed in myself

[gardenerjoy]

WendyWants2Change: I'll be looking for a new "new thing" in September, too. I finally got my routine back a couple of days ago, which took much longer than really necessary.

If anyone else wants to join me and Wendy with a new start in a new month, our September thread is here: September Weight Loss Challenge - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

[WendyWants2Change]

At least I’m down a little more to end the month
8/3: 186.1
8/30: 185.7
8/31: 184.0

[MrBadger]

start: 14st 9.75lb / 207.75lb
target: 14st 6lb / 202lb
target loss: 3.75lb

end weight: 14st 9.5lb / 207.75lb

0.25lb loss

I've been down a couple of lb and up a couple over the month so I think I got off lightly to finish down anything tbh.

see you in the Sept thread
