    For every 10 pounds I lose, I am putting money aside for when I reach my UGW so that I can treat myself to a new wardrobe!

    Update: 8/8: I put my first $ aside, I hit my first 10lb loss this week-on a roll!
    8/15: I now have less than 100 pounds to lose until I reach my UGW :smile: :smile:

    Five pounds is above my goal for what's left of this month, but what the hell - I'll give this a shot. As I intend to start a stricter rowing routine and make working out a higher priority, stranger things could happen.

    Sorry, forgot to weigh in yesterday. Somehow I'm having problems keeping my days straight this week. But since school started today, I'll do a much better job of knowing what day it is.

    Weigh days: 8/2 = 156lbs

    8/9 = 154.5lbs

    8/16 = 154lbs (but that was before going to the loo - will say no more than that!)

    Not exactly stunning progress but roughly on target. Still having one fast day a week-well, more 'skipping lunch' than fasting, but it does kick-start things a bit.


    Onwards and upwards (or should that be downwards?)

    Keep up the good work, everyone. :)
