20lbs in 20 weeks Summer 2018 CHALLENGE!

aleikita

July is just 20 weeks away and I know many of us would like to shed some pounds in order to feel more comfortable! 1 lb a week is doable!! I personally have a beach vacation in July and think a challenge would be a great way to get an extra push:)

Yes, it has been a couple of weeks since my last post...But here I am. Doing fantastic! Keeping on track, not feeling denied or missing my extra chocolates.

This past weekend was our first shakedown backpacking trip for our July New Mexico trip. Nine Scouts (teenagers) and two adults, one of the Scouts couldn't make it. We had a GREAT weekend. I ate a lot (we tend to do that to stay fueled) and still managed to drop 1 lb during the week.
More important, I felt great and we all had a blast. What a great group of guys.

Making great progress. I am actually a bit ahead of plan. Knowing the first lbs are easier and the last few can be quite a challange. But I am ready.
Thanks for keeping me on track.

Sounds like Philmont You will love it.

I guess I will join in Late

If today were my weigh-in day, it would look like I gained 1.4 pounds since Friday. But I know better; the trend still suggests I'm losing somewhat consistently with a few hiccups here and there.

I really find using the rolling average helps minimize any stress associated with seeing those little bumps. I can keep working on my progress and know that the data suggest I'm being successful even when that scale tries to joke around with me.
