    I've been bouncing around my 30 pounds lost goal for a couple of weeks now, coming as close as 0.1 pounds short of it.

    At first, I found that funny, but now it's turned into an actual stall. Not so funny. I know it will pass, as stalls do. Went over my calories today and it's back to the drawing board tomorrow. 😞


    Think of how proud you will feel when that final 0.1 does finally come off. Even if it doesn't, you should be pleased with how far you have come so far.

    Definately not going to reach my August goal, I've gained weight due to working out harder. I'm losing inches though!

    @slporco and @Evette7 there has to be another month. It's what got me going this month. Happy to see you both.

    Hello, just introducing myself, I just found this, I'd love to join this group for September. I weigh on Mondays so won't be doing it again in August, so my August goal will just be logging every day and checking in here, but I'd like to lose at least 1kg a month and preferably two. I'm currently 102.1kg which I think is 225lb.
    Looking forward to getting to know you all.

    Finally getting it done! I have a 2.5 yo little boy who loves to run and play, and likes me to be on the floor with him to play. AT 347 that hurt! So he's my motivation. I want to be able to play with him in th park, and to not avoid sitting on the floor to play with him just because I fear the process of getting off the floor. :s

    My goal for August was to just get the weight moving again (I was on a plateau for months!), which I have done! I would like to get rid of just two more pounds by the end of the month.
