    Weight gained this week: 0.5 kg
    Weight lost this month: 1.8 kg

    Successes/struggles this week: I think it is hormonal but since it is my first month tracking food and weight I don't know.

    Successes / struggles this month: I won't be weighing in on Wednesday so here my conclusion. I have not reached my goal weight but over all I have lost 1.8 kg (4 lbs). I hoped that I would shed more water weight since I just begun. Did not happen. Yes, I want to lose faster but as long as I lose I can't really complain.
    I also learnt that this form of accountability is not for me. Hope you all lost!

    1st July:

    Weight lost/gained this week: - 0.8 / 0.4
    Weight lost/gained this month: - 7.1 / 3.2 kg

    Successes/struggles this week: lost a bit overall and that is good. Maybe I can reach my goal but even if not I got very close - happy me! I did regular exercise but I had a bit of a rough weekend when it comes to food drink and sleep (=lack of). lots of fun though but I am very tired and that makes me vulnerable in terms of wise choices today. No gym tonight as I just want to go to bed. Will try to fit some in tomorrow. Before the weekend I was really good when it comes to calorie deficit, burned calories... but did not lose much, even had a gain in between and that left me a bit frustrated. I can feel the first excitement slowing down and that's a dangerous thing. I hope to feel more energized after a good night's sleep and carry on. Really hope there will be a July follow up on this as I weigh myself daily and here the overall tendency is clearer to see.

    Weight lost/gained this week: +1.8
    Weight lost/gained this month: -0

    Successes/struggles this week:
    Week 1: Getting ready to go on vacation. Road food always kills me and lack of exercise. I plan to really try hard to get in some exercise, enjoy myself but eat in moderation. We'll see!

    Week 2: Vacation and road food! Guess I'm going the wrong way in this thing. Not too worried about it, been on vacation and knew that it was going to be higher this week. I just have to put it in high gear the next few weeks.

    Week 3: Did a good job at losing the vacation wieght, plus a little bit more. Success for this week, found a new exercise, Pickleball... loved it and it gave me a great burn.

    Week 4: Should have been a better loss.

    Week 5: Monthly visitor... that's all that needs to be said.

    Goals for this week:
    Drink more water
    Vary my exercise routine

    WEEK THREE: only a few ounces this week. Disappointed but a loss is a loss and won't deter me. Need to make time this week to exercise regularly. No excuses!

    Goals for this week:
    Drink more water.
    Exercise every day.
    No cheat meal this week.

    WEEK FOUR: Had a good week this week. My work schedule was a little wonky this week so there were a few times my calorie intake was low and didn't give me a completion. But I promised myself if I wasn't hungry I wouldn't eat just to make an app happy.
    And only 2 more lbs. to go before I meet my June goal! Yay!!

    Goals for this week are same as above:
    1) more water
    2) exercise everyday ( work stress has been minimized so I should be better about this!)
    3) no cheat meal this week

    WEEK FIVE:
    Nearly lost my two pounds! Six ounces from my goal but I'm ok with that!!! A loss is a loss no matter how small!

    July goal:

    Question for the group. Is there easier way to find your old post. I am finding hard time locating in the thread. I just can't remember my weight for the month. Going back and forth in the app is a pain.

    Copied and updated!!!

    WOW WHAT A MONTH!!
    I have really enjoyed this challenge!!! Even though my weight increased on today's weigh in- I'm still super proud of what I have accomplished!! I had a bad eat day yesterday- don't know why I let that happen before this last weigh in but I did and that is that!! Still have 2 more days left and I will lose that .5 and be at my goal (again) before the end!!!!

    Can't wait til the July challenge starts!!

    I need friends to add me and encourage me and I will do the same in return-

    "We can do anything we want to do, if we want to bad enough---- and if we don't want to, we just make an excuse!!" No more excuses for me--- I'm in this 100% !!!! Who is with me!!!!??????!!!!!
