    🌼🌱🌱🌱🌱
    July 1-157.4 lbs- My weight has been a SEESAW since 2/1/22. Up, down, up, down. Had a low in April of 147.6 lbs and have been fluctuating in about 13 lb range from that. Very Disheartening.
    July 2-160.4 lbs :-( I did eat too many carbs yesterday but was way below my allotted calories with my exercise and not enough extra calories to gain 3 lbs! Has to be water weight. Did 232 minutes on my Elliptical for 15.21 miles this AM. Then did 5 sets of 20 reps of 90+ lbs on the leg press. Also did some Lat pull downs and bicep work on the double cable system and some bicep curls and tri-cep kickbacks with dumbbells. It's about time I use some of this equipment available in my basement again!
    July 3-160.4 lbs :-( Did 186 minutes on the elliptical for 13.25 miles. Did 5 sets of 20 on the leg press, 90 lbs and did 10 lb bicep curls and tri kick backs.

    July 4…158.8 lbs Happy 4th of July! 🎆🎇 At least it's moving in the right direction. I did 190 minutes on the Elliptical for 13.76 miles this AM. Also did Leg presses, 5 sets of 20 @ 100+ lbs today. (Don't know how much the incline sled weighs. It's also a angled shoulder/squat press too) Used the double cable pulley system for Lat pull downs 2 sets of 10 with 50 lbs. And double bicep curls, 2 sets of 10 with 50 lbs, then 2 sets of 10 bicep dumbbell curls with 10 lbs and same number of sets with Tri-cep kickbacks with the same dumbbell. Need to add to my repertoire. Need to cut the grass today. Off tomorrow yet. Nice break from work. And getting extra workouts in.

    Hi Everyone, my name is Amy and I am from England. I hope I am still OK to join as just found this challenge :)
    I weigh in KGS though not lbs if that is OK? I am 36 years old and have had 2 kidney transplants and take lot of medication including steroids which has seen my weight go up by 12kgs since August last year when I had my second transplant. I have been trying to shift some of my gain since Jan and the weight loss is very slow. I am getting stricter with myself and actively using mfp again to keep track.
    Hope everyone has a good month and meets their goals.

    Heaviest weight: 88.5kgs
    Current weight: 87.9kgs (As of 1st July)

    Daily Focus:
    🌼 Weigh in each morning
    🌼 Eat at or under my calorie goal
    🌼 Log honestly and consistently
    🌼Post each morning under this challenge

    Stretch Goals:

    🌱Complete the June Lucy Wydham-Read Belly Fat Challenge (I'm a month late but I don't mnd)
    🌱Exercise Min 45 mis a day
    🌱Hit Min 10,000 steps a day
    🌱Stop Grazing from the Cupboard!

    July 1 87.9kgs
    July 2 87.9kgs
    July 3 87.9kgs
    July 4…Happy 4th of July! 🎆🎇 87.7kgs

    @Aymzc I'm a Hemodialysis RN. It's a tough road for transplant patients with the steroids and weight gain, be it water weight or not. Welcome! Glad your here and hope you find the support you need here! MFP has helped me lose around 100 lbs and I still have more I want to lose.

    July 2 - 162 (We got a 60 minute walk in yesterday in the heat and had a few drinks to celebrate Canada Day. Night was cut short as we had a huge thunderstorm and the Internet was so bad inside because everyone was in their trailers so we went to bed early and had a great restorative sleep.)

    July 4 - 164 (Happy 4th of July to all the Americans! Our work gave us a four day weekend for Canada Day so I was still off today. I did two Peloton rides and a 5 mile walk and food stop with my husband and dog... so much fun but I am wiped. Need to do some housework now.)

    Heaviest weight: 220
    July 1st: 210
    Current weight: 210


    Daily Focus:
    Weigh in everyday in July
    Stay under calorie goal 6 out of 7 days per week
    Exercise 4 days a week


    July 1st 210 lbs. Tracked and met calories, no exercise besides a short walk. Traveling to NC to visit inlaws, may not be able to weigh for a few days.
    July 2nd DNW no scale. Ate below calories and walked a lot.
    July 3rd DNW no scale. Ate over calories, but tracked as best I could. Exercised for an hour..
    July 4th DNW DNT. Traveling finally caught up with me. I let myself get overly hungry and ended up binging on snacks. Back at it today, starting with a long walk. Happy 4th.
    July 5th DNW Hit calorie goal, lots of walking

    Hi! I’m planning to keep the momentum going. 🏃‍♀️ I’m really happy with the progress I’ve made so far. I want to be 126 by June 2023. Hoping to see 143 this month. I’m going to focus on my water intake this time.

    Heaviest weight: 165
    Current weight: 145

    Daily Focus:
    🌼 Log weight
    🌱 Portion control food
    🌼 Drink 8 glasses of water
    🌱 Work out at least 4x a week

    July 1 - 145 (home cooked)
    July 2 - 144 (home cooked/ strength 30m)
    July 3 - 144 (home cooked/ ran 1hr)
    July 4 - 144 (home cooked)
    July 5 - 145 (home cooked/ strength 30m)

    I made a beast of a burger for the fam yesterday! Totes worth being a touch heavier for it! 🍔 Also am using a measured 32 oz glass to help with the water goal.

    July3: 194
    July5: 193.6 Good morning MFP. My husband and son have covid (for the first time). Son brought it home due to many socializing events over his last week of grade 11. DH, who is a physician, and has been proud of not bringing it home to us from the hospital, caught it! Son is isolating upstairs. Husband is isolating downstairs. So far I am negative with no symptoms. It is quite weird having no company in the house. We are using What's App to chat as a family. I am delivering meals to the foot or top of stairs. I get to do all the meal prep (usually only do supper) and clean-up (usually do none). Yesterday, I did a 5k walk, and read. As you can imagine it's going to be a quiet week.

    @Mau_Hutch Sending out prayers and good vibes that you will remain virus free and that hubby and son will recover quickly with no lasting effects or complications. Hang in there!
