June wasn't as great a month as I has planned. My husband and I just bought our first house and have been living in my inlaws basement for the past month and a half. It's been busy and diffucult to find time and space to work out. My mother inlaw has been doing most of the cooking which is fantastic other than I can't control my meals as well. Needless to say it's also been stressful living in boxes under my inlaws roof. So I guess I'm not totally surprised that I had no major wieght loss in June.

As of July 1st though, we will be living in our new home!!!! I will have my treadmill set up and all of my workout equipment unpacked. I will have no excuse to not workout. I will be doing my own grocery shopping and cooking again so I can control what I eat. I will also be burning major calories cleaning, unpacking, organizing and painting. So I am promising that buy Aug 1st I will have lost 10lbs.

So that's my July goal.....what's yours????

    My July goal is to tone, tone, tone! I'm nearly at ultimate goal weight so I'm not expecting any major/huge losses weight wise, especially since the last ten or so pounds are the WORST. I would like to lose inches if anything...and maybe 5 more pounds lol. Here's to a good July for every one!

    15-20 pounds. I'm going to Scotland the second week of August and I want to be able to do some clothes shopping being a size (or two) smaller. :) Also to fit properly into these old pair of pants. I can button them now but MAJOR muffin top, so to get those to fit nicely would be amazing.

    My July goal is 10 - 12lbs before my next hospital appointment.
    I have gained 2lbs this week and I am trying to break a plateau - I am just determined
    to try and lose this little goal, but as long as my weight is in a downward trend I won't mind
    it is all part of the bigger picture.:smile:

    My goal is to lose 5-7lbs. I am going slow and steady this time around. I have learned (the hard way) that if I rush it and deny myself too much then it will not stay off and iill be back here a stone heavier before too long. So, I am only weighing once every 4 weeks so I am planning 5-7lbs for the 4 weeks of July

    Hope I can keep at it
