Well done everyone, im joining in too this month. I have lost two pounds this week.
sw - 202
cw - 184
gw - 176

I'm in!

I've lost almost 8 pounds already in total but here it goes.

SW: 105 pounds
GW: 97 pounds

Then I will be finished with my weight loss.

So I completely dropped the ball in June (semi on purpose because I was burning out!) but I am back!

Alright.

SW: 197.4
CW: 197.4
GW: 187

STILL fighting the TOM gain. If this month goes like past months, I should have a whoosh any second now!

LockItUp, I'm where you're at. Nothing to report as I'm smack dab in the middle of my TOM with **bonus** weight gain! :p

lock it up - hoping you get that woosh soon. :)

Thanks!

I've just still pluggin' along, eating my calorie range and getting my workouts in. It will come off, I have no doubt! Gets irritating though! Stupid scale.

Friday July 6.....296 (-2lb)

SW: 298
CW: 296
GW: 288

down 3 already :)

1/7/12 190.7 (86.7 kgs)
8/7/12 188.5 (85.7 kgs)

- 1 kg (2.2 lbs)

More or less on track!

SW: 198.8
CW: 197.4

It would be lower, but I've been letting myself eat a bit more than usual the past few days - still low enough calorie to lose a bit, but not so low as it was. And there has been plenty of birthday cake and two steaks this week. I would feel guilty, but as well as losing 1.4lbs I've gained the knowledge of an embryo. I've a feeling that's really going to screw up my weight loss...

SW: 194.8

I have been off plan since the start of the month...I think some of this weight is water weight, so I am confident I can make it to 10 even though I am starting a bit late.

I will go for five lbs. SW 189, goal 184 by 1Aug.

No progress to report here :( TOM, BUT I did not gain anything, which actually (I hope!) means I lost, but it does not show yet. When the TOM weight is gone, I hope to see the scale down by a pound or two. I still really need to speed this up if I want to achieve at least 5 pounds by the end of July!

Definitely no TOM excuse. I'll take the congratulations, but there's a fair bit of apprehensiveness too - I've lost four stone, I don't want to put it all back on!

Still at 179 so no change yet.

August 1st is my 25th wedding anniversary so 10lbs less would be AWESOME! Let's Go!!

July 2 182
Goal Aug 1 172

Count me in!!!
CW: 246
GW: 236

I know I can do it! Just have to set my mind to it!

Keeping at it no matter what the stupid scale says, but I won't lie and say I'm not utterly discouraged. Freaking .1 (POINT ONE) loss for the month so far. I better be getting a DARN HUGE WHOOSH here soon.

SW 179.6

Back up to 218 :( I really thought I had a chance to lose the 10lbs this month!

SW: 168
CW: 170
GW: 163

Erm... I seem to be going the wrong way lol, had way too much junk this weekend and now I'm paying for it. I'm just hoping it's mostly water weight from the salt. I'm back to it now and I'll see how much I can get off before next week.

i want a *woosh*! what IS the *woosh*?? massive water weight loss?

That's happened to me too - really discouraging.

SW 226.6
CW 225.8
GW 216.6

Only down .8 so far but better a small loss than no loss!!

Nothing much to report , still at 129.5 struggling to loss 5 lbs this month hope for the best :)

Sw: 194.8
Cw: 190.8
Gw: 184.8

SW:218.0

7.8 lbs in 3 weeks? That's 2.6 a week....maybe!

I'm in.

SW:202.3
GW:192.3

Jez, wow, amazing progress! You will certainly make it!

AFM:
SW: 93.8 kg (206.4)
CW: 92.7 (203.9)
GW: 88 kg (193.6)

Some progress at last! I probably won't be able to lose 10 pounds but if I lose 5 I will still be happy.

I know I'm starting this really late but I'm in. I'm at 260 right now, by August 1st, my goal is to be 249.

Apparently I never posted at the beginning of July in here? Oh well:

GW: 136!

I only weigh-in on Wednesday nights, and since there was no meeting last week due to the holiday, tonight will be my first weigh-in of the month.

I've been pretty busy the past few weeks. Drove to California to spend time with my grandma, adopted a new puppy once we got home, and heard back from a place we were looking to rent which means we're probably moving next month.

There were a couple nights out that I could have made better choices food-wise (ordered sweet potato fries one night and had a second slice of pizza the other), but I feel I was still perfectly reasonable, so I'm hoping for decent progress. Can't wait to see how I did! Hoping for about two pounds but I'll be happy with any loss. :)

I've been at this weight loss thing hardcore for 16 weeks now, and I've lost A LOT in those 16 weeks (40.5 pounds of the 56.7 total to be exact, and all of it since December 20th). I've had ups and downs and small stalls, and I've taken it all with a good attitude I think. Sure I've had times were I've gotten frustrated, but I've taken it all in stride. BUT right now I'm more frustrated than I've ever been! .3 loss in 2 weeks. I know I'm eating accurately within my calories, I weigh everything I eat! I record every bite. I've been weight training, running, and random other cardio. I know it's just the scale being an a-hole and it will catch up, but it's so discouraging!

Lockitup i hear you! i am stuck for nearly 3 weeks bouncing between the same 3 pounds...so frustrating, i have lost 66 pounds since late october last year and i'm proud, but when i stick like this it is so annoying, last time i plateaued was at 224 and i was at that for about a month :(

Congrats to everyone who has been losing!

I'm back on track after going up a few lbs last week, so hopefully when I do my official weigh in on Monday I'll be closer to my 5 lb goal (glad I decided to do a more modest goal this month lol).

LockItUp: That's an amazing loss since December, wow almost 60 lbs? I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to be putting in all that work and not seeing the scale move like you are use to. Maybe you are putting muscle on that's compensating for any weight you are losing?

Sw: 247.25

Im joining the thread late but I have a record of my weight through out the month saved so I know where I started :) Previously I have made my goals on these posts to lose 10 pounds like it says, but it never happens for me. I'm going to set my goal at 5 pounds instead and if I lose more than that then...yay! lol

Sort of, yea. Whooshes are usually some water weight and some fat loss from your efforts (sometimes fat loss can be more depending on how much calorie deficit and/or exercise.) I never really got them until recently, only a few times and every time, it was after TOM.
______________________________________________

Saw 178 something a couple times then back to 179 so boo, not counting it YET. I am thinking about getting a new scale since mine is a bit wacko even with new batteries but I'm a bit scared I may weigh more on the new one, lol. But then again, I may weigh less.

Stephanie- Just keep pushing through! It has to come off eventually, right?? :wl:
