    GW for August: 149 lbs
    GW: 125 lbs?

    I think this is just what I need to cross the threshold from obese to just overweight and then to get into the 140's. Good luck, everyone!

    Good luck everybody with this month everybody did so well last month. Well the countdown to my 25th birthday has truly began. At the end of last month I set myself a challenge to lose 8lbs by my birthday it is a healthy weight to try and go for and well at the the end of last month I had loss the first 2.2lbs of the goal so I have 5.8lbs left to lose before my birthday. Even if I don't get this goal or even if I beat it I will be happy because I will be below 11st since and I have not been that since I was a preteen/young teenage.

    To get into the next BMI category I need to lose 6 pounds, not 5, BUT I am working hard to not obsess over numbers, so if I get to 164, great! If not, still great.

    Good luck everyone!

    Good morning all. I am ready and geared up for this month's challenge. We all did great last month and I am sure we all will do great again this month. I am hoping for more than 5lbs this month but I will be happy with just the 5lbs. Good luck to everyone.

    I'm in!! It's been quite a while since I've been here. I hit my target weight of 135-138 back in 2015, but loose logging, portion creep, and laziness has led to an uncomfortable gain for me. So here I am with all you amazing folks. My goal is 2-3lbs lost per month (sloooooowww is best for me).

    Let's lose this weight and never find it again :)
