Lose 5 Pounds A Month July 2011 Challenge

DBabbit

Had a 2 week blip in my schedule since Mom broke her hip, but she's home now, and I can get back on schedule. I weighed in at 189.6lbs this morning. I'm going to work extra hard to lose at least a couple of pounds before the end of the month, but I don't think I'm going to hit goal this month.

Hello....What is new today?

Chocoholic72

I am down 4.8 pounds, but everyone at work wants to go to lunch! To top it off I managed to hurt my knee yesterday, so I had to fast forward through the leg portion of my workout, so I have to really keep within my calories. So im sitting here with my knee iced up.

So I was a good girl last night. I had a swim club meeting at the pool and son's baseball game right after so I borrowed my daughter's bike and rode. It was only 8 miles, but it involved hills and stops. 8.3 miles round trip. It felt great but tonight my knee is really bothering me and biking outside is the only new thing I have done.

My 2 older kids got their braces today so it was a challenge to make a "soft" dinner they would eat....and they wouldn't. Any ideas on "soft" low cal dinners, I would be happy to hear them.

Good night!

Alright, no loss this week which makes me sad. Apparently I need to change something up. I guess July isn't officially over until Sunday, so if I lose anything by that time I'll post it. Otherwise, a total loss of 3.7 lbs this month! Better than nothing, so I press onwards. Good luck everyone! I'll be looking for the August challenge to keep me going...

Well, I am no where near my goal or even my start weight. While I am disappointed, I have been consistent with INSANITY and I have been trying to break my bad eating habits so I cannot be upset about it. I need to just stay consistent and continue on until i break through this plateau. Good luck everyone!

Good morning everyone

Here is my final weigh in for this challenge:
Starting off on July 1st: 252 lbs
7/08: 250 lbs!
7/15: 248.5 lbs
7/22: 248 lbs (Oh! For some reason I thought I was still at the same as last week! That was a pleasant surprise!)
7/29: 246.5 (YAY! Pushed beyond the 5 lb goal!)
7/31: I will be out of town this weekend, so 7/29 will be my final weigh in.

Thank you for having me in this challenge! It definitely kept me on track all month!

JustBreatheSB & taniux & BrunetteWife:

You all have been losing consistent each week and I wish I was doing the same! Slow and steady! Any tips???

Honestly I'm not doing anything special, I just do my best. I try to hit the gym at least 3 times a week. I eat OK, but I still have my treats and crap food days. This week I had a big loss but I think it's because I'm on antibiotics and it pretty much cleaned me out. On that note, good luck and keep up the great work :-)

I've lost 7.2 lbs, so I have officially met my 5 lb goal for the month :-) This month I...

Fit into a pair of pants I've never been able to wear.
Tried on my wedding dress and it was too big!!
Am at a weight that my husband has never seen me at.
Wore a strapless dress and actually felt sexy and not so self conscious about my fat arms, because they're shrinking :-)

:-) I hope everyone is doing well, I know I don't check in too much (just once a week) but I know you're all doing great and pushing hard to meet your goals!! Keep it up, you're all beautiful!!

I've lost 11.3 lbs so far! Even though I'm terribly sick, this is definitely the best thing to come out of being so ill! Hopefully when I start feeling better I won't gain all of the weight back!

I've finished my five pound goal for both July and August! Now I'm 1.3lbs ahead for September! Let's hope I keep losing weight!

OMG I bet I could fly if I tried to today! So happy, I have been working really really hard and I am stoked that I am losing this fast. I have been walking/jogging 7 miles a day and it is so paying off.

I gotta run but I will read the other posts later and touch base with everyone.
:flowerforyou: Love you all, hope your scale was as nice as mine was today.
