    Successes / struggles this week: My final weekend of the month was my monthly (until winter) "beer weekend", where I basically pay zero attention to calories from beer and drink all day. Typically that means weight gain, and I expected no different this time. Except I actually managed to somehow lose 0.6 pounds on the weekend, on top of my impressive 3 pounds off during the week. Feeling on top of the world right now.

    August Goal Weight: 224
    Goal Weight: 200

    August 21st:233
    August 28th:227.4

    My numbers don't reflect how happy I truly am with myself, I wish I had actually tracked inches instead. I'm down 9 pounds this month, but I'm also up a lot of muscle. My clothes are fitting SO MUCH better! I have to make every effort to keep going to the gym through September.

    Start Weight: 140.5 lbs (7/30)
    Goal Weight: 138.5 lbs (8/28)
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 133 lbs

    Weigh-ins:
    August 7th: 141.5
    August 13th: 139.5
    August 18th: 139

    Weight -/+ this month: -1.5

    Successes / struggles this week: these last 5ish pounds are stubborn! I'm a bit frustrated with the lack of results. Could be TOM bloat this week as I've been staying within calories and getting daily activity. That's alright, I'll keep at it! I'm getting healthier no matter what that number says.
