Can you lose 10 lbs in August ? I believe you can if you will work hard so here is the challenge for you.
Lose 10 pounds by Sep 1 using what ever exercise program you like and stay under your calorie goal for each day.
Record your weight loss like this:

SW - xxx lbs (Monday August 1)
Week 1 - xxx lbs (Monday August 8)
Week 2 - xxx lbs (Monday August 15)
Week 3 - xxx lbs (Monday August 22)
Week 4 - xxx lbs (Monday August 29)
Total lost - xx lbs (Thursday September 1)

Mine is like this:
SW - 219 lbs (Monday August 1)
Week 1 - xxx lbs (Monday August 8)
Week 2 - xxx lbs (Monday August 15)
Week 3 - xxx lbs (Monday August 22)
Week 4 - xxx lbs (Monday August 29)
Total lost - xx lbs (Thursday September 1)

    I'm nervous. I only have 10 lbs to go to reach goal and my body seems to be fightening me for every pound. But I'm willing to kick my butt and get started.

    Great job! My exercises consist of EA Sports Active for the Wii, in which I normally burn around 130 calories in about 20 minutes. Some days I also do the Leslie Sansone 2-Mile Brisk Walk DVD or 20 minutes on an elliptical. :-)

    I have walked 6-8 miles every day this week and plan to walk 8 with my wife in the morning. Hope you are staying with the program.
