    Female – wrong side of 65; wrong side of average height!

    Previous Months:-
    March SW – 60.5kg
    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
    5 July – 53.7kg
    6 July – 53.6kg
    7 July – 53.5kg

    Looks like the glass of water with every glass of wine approach is working for me although I slept in today so it was a late weigh-in. Weights yesterday was short session but I am ridiculously tired this morning.

    @HappyDonkey75 - I share your frustration at weekends away where there's very little option for good food choices. If those 2lbs have crept back on then it's very unlikely to be fat and much more likely to be water retention due to salt. And 12 hours in a car? I find 4 hours more than enough, can't begin to imagine 12 especially just for a weekend! Hope you have a good journey back and the scales are kind to you Monday morning.

    Well the first week is done.
    The good part was
    No beer
    No pop
    No McDonalds
    No sweet smoothies
    No chips
    No ice cream
    No coffee and Tim bits

    My weigh in time is at the end of the day.

    I’m determined still to lose 10 pounds by the end of this month.
    Keep it going πŸ‘

    I'm committed to doing 10:14 intermitent fasting, to track my meals, and eating mindfully. This week I'll focus on listening to my body, and actually stop eating when I feel satisfied.

    Ultimate goal: 73 kg
    Medium term goal: Stop looking like I'm pregnant
    Short term goal: Fit in my black jeans

    Initial June 13th weight: 103 kg
    July 1st: 97.1kg
    July 2nd: 96.5kg
    July 3rd: 96.1
    July 4th: 95.7
    July 5th: 95.6
    July 6th: 95.8
    July 7th: 96.1

    Forgot to post this morning. It's been a really difficult day because I ate most of my calories in stupid junk food. I'm expecting my liquid retention to be high after eating so much sodium..

    Late to the party but I still came.


    Starting weight 108 March, 20204
    June ending weight: probably around 107
    Todays weight, July 08 : no clue - I'm camping.

    Goal weight for July 14th ish - 105.6


    I went to visit home for the beginning of july. My mom had a heart attack the end of June - severe. June 28-today she has been in the hospital. Maybe.... MAAAAYBE today she will be transferred to a swing bed. I and my prince charming have been working 1/2 days remote. The Lord was good to us, he saved mom for us. She is recovering - although this is scarey for us kids /(me and my 2 older brothers).
    Mom is 77. She had 2 stents put in the Right and Left arteries and will be fitted for a lifeVest today. They are getting close to having her meds figured out. They keep adjusting it, which one she is getting as well as what time she recieves it. I don't see how she will get out today..... I live 13hours away normally - except this week since I am nearby. *thanks in advance for prayer support*

    Then, just a day later, the Lord took my 58yr old sister in law to heaven. She had Muscular distrophy, was bed ridden and had a pace maker. It was NOT expected at all. But the lord took her from this world and now, I try to be a support for my brother who is trying to figure out how to do this chapter of his life. He is 58 as well, maybe 57... 59... somewhere in there.

    I have been eating right and working out. I've decided that over indulging will make me feel like poop and, quite honestly the days feel poopy enough without me feeling that way. So I decided to eat healthy and clean and, I am enjoying that so much. Indeed it does NOT feel like punishment or deprivation. It feels good.

    I hope you all are doing well.

    Ok it’s coming along yay. Yesterday I had a super intense craving for cheeseburger with fries. So I listened to my body and had a picnic with it. Interestingly I wasn’t hungry for dinner after so I listened to my body again and just had dandelion tea. So it ended up being within calorie budget.

    July 7th: 96.1
    July 8th: 95.6

    Starting the week with the right foot. Had a difficult weekend with lots of temptations, I gave into some.. But, I forgive myself, and let's keep pushing forward. I'll treat myself (with a piece of clothing) this weekend if I manage stay on top of my diet this week.

    Have an awesome day everyone!

    July Goal - Below 200, ideally 297 would be great

    June 30 -200.8- rest day
    July 1-200.5- rest day
    July 2-198.7 40 mins cardio, upper body strength
    July 3 -198.6
    July 4=199.3
    July 5- DNW - 12 hrs of car travel for a quick but long trip trip to hubby's home town
    July 6- DNW but walked 2.25 miles
    July 7- DNW 12 hrs car travel to get home again
    July 8th- 198.8-
    Did not expect this after the last three days. but certainly relieved.
    Food options were difficult but I made sure I did three things. Did NOT overeat , drank A TON of water, (and used herbal diuretics since I tend to retain water) and made the best choices I could with food given some of it was out of my control (prepared by others or eating at restaurants that didn't exactly have good healthy options. If I couldn't eat a healthy meal, I ate less of a meal.
