    OK this is the third month and I still am looking at reaching the same goal of getting into the 150s. June was a bust, July was a bust, but August will see the 160's gone for good. My vacation caused me a gain and I have 10 pounds to lose to hit 159 and by golly I am going to do it in August.

    1. Lacto-Ovo Vegetarian meals
    2. Get into the 150's
    3. Add more exercise - strength training

    What are your goals for the month of August?

    Soooo, how did I do?

    - My month of vegetarian meals was a complete success. Will definitely be having more vegetarian days from now on.

    - I was able to get out of the 160's for good and got half way through the 150's. (nearly 15 pounds lost)

    - Not so good on the exercise front. Have been averaging 17K+ steps a day, but have not bumped up the strength training much. Will be focusing hard on this in September.

    You did amazing babe! Great work!

    Weight shedding goal- 3 to 4 pounds to get to 176.9 or 175.9

    Exercise goal--get through my 2 hardest HIIT strength training workouts without having to modify or stop halfway through harder segments. Lol

    It's not my official weekly weigh-in today, tomorrow is, however, I exceeded my August goal by just over a pound. I was 173.9 this morning. I'm very happy!

    Still working on the HIIT goal. Lol

    Well, I think I have enough confidence in the process now to try a weight goal again - this is around 7 pounds from where I am today, so hard, but doable!:
    • Hit 174 lbs

    I didn't hit my goal - I missed it by 1.5 lbs. Not unhappy in the least though, as I started August at 181 and ended it at 175.9 giving me a nice 5.1 lb loss for the month! I'm always amazed when I lose more than a pound a week... :)

    Hi!
    For me in August I should keep what I started yesterday 31.07, that is OMAD, starting this way of life and keep going
    I want to lose minimum 4 kg this month
    And I want to enjoy this new style with photos of my meals and a nice attitude
    And I want to relax more and be more Zen

    Hi !
    So only 2.6 kg lost with ups and downs
    No photos , no relax, no Zen, stressing period at job and home
    But I kept my OMAD meals, at least
    Hope September will be better!

    Goals for August.

    Hit 192 ... 5 lb loss.

    No Sugar Substitutes.

    Well I hit my goal, right on the nose. 192 exactly this morning.

    I haven't done so well with the sugar substitutes. You win some, you lose some.

    Aaah! New month brings so many new opportunities! I love these goal threads. :smiley: This month could be a little challenging for me since I am traveling for a week to visit some relatives. But I still want to try to keep my challenges and be up for them.
    My goals this month
    1. Lose 3 to 4 kg to touch 75 kg/165 lbs mark.


    I gained 2 kg on a holiday this month, but glad to lose all of it plus an additional 1.2 kg. So, even though I could not achieve my goal, I am still glad that I did not end up with a gain and manage to have a net loss.

    Net weight loss in Aug 1.2 kg/2.64 lbs
