    Goal weight on August 31st: 129 for the third month in a row I have lost the last 2 months but just a little so never quite make it to goal hopefully this month.

    08/01: 132.0lbs TOM
    08/08: 131.4lbs glad to see I did go down a little after a bad weekend of not as much water and not so great food (just because I was at my parents and they don't always have the best choices. One day I brought some of my own fruit to snack on but forgot on the next day. Still haven't seen anything under 130. Maybe next week.
    08/15: 129.6lbs I am happy I did different activities this weekend and got my visit to gym in both days but I also ate at Olive Garden and didn't make best food choice there but progress:)
    08/22: 129 I got a new scale that is dial so no more point anything for me the new scale does give same weight as old though. It is hard to read my scale but we will make do.

    08/01: 213.8
    08/08: 216.0 This doesn't really surprise me - last week was spent at county fair and most of my meals were carnival food.
    It only happens once a year so I enjoyed myself, worked hard with the animals and now I'm moving forward.
    08/15: 214.8 - Good thing is I'm going down. Bad thing is I'm still above my starting weight for this month.
    08/22: 211.8 - Woohoo...finally seeing some difference. Hopeful I can reach my goal this next week.

    This is a two part challenge from our winner.

    1. Water. Let's try for 10 glasses daily.

    2. This part of the challenge I've come up with, in light of today's natural happenings. I live in Virginia and we had an earthquake today. Nothing too crazy, but enough to make me think. What is my Emergency Food Plan? I don't have one. Do you? Most of the things that I would have put on the list before MFP would have been things like chips, chips, and more chips. So, the challenge is this: What is your Emergency Food Plan and is there a way to put a MFP (healthy ) twist to it?

    Don't give up! Maybe you just need to change things up....Have you tried changing your workouts or what you are eating?

    Maintaining is good.... but I agree that you need to mix something up, food or exercise :wink:
