    31 March EW – 58.8kg
    30 April EW – 57.0kg
    31 May EW – 55.0kg
    30 June EW - 54.2kg

    March Start Waist – 83cm
    31 March End Waist – 81cm
    30 April End Waist – 77.5cm
    31 May End Waist – 76.0cm
    30 June End Waist – 75.0cm

    UGW - 53kg

    Mini Goals June:
    1. Post here every day for the rest of the month.
    2. Lose 0.5kg in weight (June end weight was 54.2kg, so goal is 53.7kg)
    3. Lose 1cm from my waist (will measure at the end of the month)

    1 July – 54.5kg
    2 July – 54.2kg
    3 July – 54.0kg
    4 July – 53.8kg

    No idea what is going on with the scales. Has to be water weight fluctuation but so long as the long term trend is down, then it is what it is. Just wish there was better correlation between calorie intake, exercise and the number the scales throws out in the morning!

    @kellyswimmer , @tmbg1 , @SofaKween , @HappyDonkey75 great to see you this month again! @aurorabarajas1 , @quolwy , @canadamarie -- welcome to the group, and good to see you posting!

    I'll be back Monday. We had some family stuff that required visiting, and I've been very off plan. I've been working out when I can, but when with family, I've eaten my old patterns and I know it's not going to be pretty when I finally get on a scale. I also know that number will go down when I get back into the flow of things.

    For those celebrating the 4th of July, I hope you had a happy and safe holiday.

    Was hoping to get a walk in today but it's been raining quite hard and more is forecast, so maybe not!

    On a positive note, I think the glue may have fixed the broken weight. Fingers crossed.

    I am following my plan and eating healthy so I actually think the weight increase is hormonal. Trying not to lose all motivation seeing the scale go up like this.

    Ok so hormonal issues really messed me up the last two days. So the scale shot up. Very glad I didn’t go crazy with food and booze out of misery.

    I am loving this group, it’s helping to see everyone’s ups and downs. I don’t feel so alone.

    Medium term goal: Stop looking like I'm pregnant
    Short term goal: Fit in my black jeans

    Initial June 13th weight: 103 kg

    @canadamarie I'm also appreciating posting and reading your messages.

    Yesterday I had very little control about what I ate. However, I did control my portions. We got this!

    Ugh. Travel is SOO HARD when trying to stay on a food plan.

    I haven't been weighing but wanted to check in.

    Yesterday was a travel day, 12 hrs in the car . I took along food and healthier snacks and drank about a gallon of water on the trip . I did ok until the afternoon when I got really hungry around 3. I ended up grabbing a meat stick and 2 cheesesticks and had a few gummy lifesavers (my road trip crutch)

    Then we had to meet friends, in a bar , with nothing on the menu but a prepackaged sandwhich or pizza as dinner choices. I didn't know this ahead of time. I was starving and dreaded the options but I needed something to eat.. so I shared a sub sandwhich with the hubby and it tasted like it had enough salt in it to last me a month. I was so annoyed. I just kept sipping on water the rest of the night and had one cocktail .

    I got up from the hotel room early this morning and went for a 2 mile walk and then we ended up going for breakfast for some REAL food. I ordered a cheese omelette with a side of veggies that included mushrooms, broccoli and tomatoes. Veggies never tasted so good!!
    (but I suspect they had a fair bit of butter on them)

    Tonight we we had one more social event. I managed to not overeat but it was long night and 3 drinks (albeit lower cocktails)

    Hoping this trip doesn't cost me the lost 2 lbs I was able to attain last week...but 12 more hours in the car tomorrow to get home and god only knows what the scale is going to say..

    Hi everyone this is my first day here in this thread ( member of MFP since January) and I'm needing some more reinforcement of goals.
    I haven't weighed myself today but will report in tomorrow.
    My starting weight in January was 100 kg and my goal weight is 76 kg.
    My mini goal for this week is to keep away from sugary snacks and do more vigorous walking.
    One significant motivating factor is that I'll be attending a wedding in 6 months time and I want to wear a lovely new dress. I'm visualising in my head the shopping experience I'll have if I stay the weight I am. It definitely doesn't appeal.
