    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 191.4
    CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT (FROM May 31, 2021): 206.4
    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s



    Challenge Weight loss goal: I am aiming for a 5 pound per month.




    June 01: 205.6 Starting off good. Now, to stay strong is the real challenge! Good luck everyone!
    June 05: 203.4 Improvement for sure.
    June 12: 205.4 Temporary bloat from Thai food last night. Next week should better reflect progress.
    June 19: 202.6 It’s been a good week of mainly good choices. I’ve felt pretty strong and I hope I can keep up the momentum. I’m keeping all the healthy, low calorie but good foods on my shopping list.
    June 26: 198.6 A great improvement over last week. I have had 3 days of social engagements this week, all involving food (including a wedding). I will work hard to stay in ONEDERLAND!
    June 30: 196.4 I am very pleased with the results of my changes and efforts. But I do have to credit about one pound of the loss due to a 24 hour illness I had. The rest of the month I really dug my heels in and made it happen with good ol’ fashioned hard work! A great job by everyone this month! Let’s keep this ball rolling, my friends!


    June Goal: 201.4
    June Actual: 196.4
    Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 5.0 lbs lost



    July 01: 197.6 A bit up on the scale this morning but I think my weight is just re-adjusting after an illness that caused some low scale readings (tummy issues). This is likely my true weight. Now, my plan is to make more changes in order to see more changes!
    July 03 197.8 Up & down all week but ended about the same. I will be working hard this week to make some meaningful progress. Even with a holiday and some travel planned!
    July 10: 197.6 I am promising myself more progress in the coming week. I anticipate less travel and there is no holiday so anything is possible!
    July 17: 195.4 I am happy with this number this week. Now, to make next week’s weigh-in something I can be proud of too!
    July 24: 196.6 Some travel this week has been a bone of contention. Back to some lower calorie and lower carb meals today. Raining very heavy so I will have to be creative with my activity indoors.
    July 31: 192.4 Yay!


    July Goal: 191.4 (revised from 196.4)
    July Actual: 192.4
    Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 14 pounds lost!



    Aug 01: 191.4 Very little food yesterday due to an emergency with my well. Still no water today. Ugh!
    Aug 07: 190.0 Up & Down all week. Travel didn’t help. However, I am glad to see that I have landed on the downward weight and trend by weigh-in. I plan on keeping up “the good work” and hitting those 180’s!!!!
    Aug 14: 189.6 (trend weight 191.5) Up during travel then back down today. Now – to make real and lasting progress!
    Aug 21: 186.8 (trend weight 189.3) Almost 3 pounds down from last week. I am now much more confident that I am in the 180’s. Next goal is 170’s. I’m hoping to be at my lowest weight since joining MFP (174.xx) by the end of the year. I’ve got to stay focused and remember that I am important too.
    Aug 28: 188.4 (trend weight 188.4) Still trending down but my scale weight was up due to much travel this week and a recent birthday party for my DGD who turned 1. Turning this ship back around. I refuse to lose my progress! I have already met my goal for this challenge and am working on continued progress.
    Aug 31: 186.8 (trend weight 188.3) Water retention gone and back on track after birthday party and several days of travel. This is not my lowest weight of the month, but it is still down by 5.6 which exceeds my goal of a 5 pound loss per month. I am happy to have stayed the course, for the most part, and still enjoyed the month of August and all that it offered. Balance is key for me.


    Aug Goal: 187.4 (5 pounds this month)
    Aug Actual: 186.8
    Cumulative Weight Loss so Far: 19.6 pounds. Happy Dancing!

    Sept 01: 182.8 (trend weight 187.8) I find this weight hard to believe today. 4 pound loss overnight??? (After a 2.4 loss the day before???) My scale is reliable and I stepped on it 3 times but I don’t trust this and consider it a fluctuation. I did everything right. I had TM. I finally slept over 4 and ½ hours which is good for me> But that is a bit much. Traveling today and tomorrow. Plenty of sitting and restaurant food. I’ll be home each night and will keep up with the posts. Friday morning my scale reading will not be pretty but that is how I roll.
