    8/12: 204.6 (per home scale on 8/12/13).

    the scale says im moving in the wrong direction which is why i dont tend to way myself but i had a NSV (non scale victory) when my fiances mom said i should stop loosing! either way i know i have to keep working at it so hopefully the blasted scale will soon reflect my hard work!

    I m going to London for 6 days, this will be a good way to keep me on track and not lose all my progress knowing I have to weigh in. I get back the night of the 12 th so it works.

    After 6 days in London, I only gained 1.5 pounds! I expected to gain AT LEAST 5!!!!
    I am quite pleased!
    I will unlikely make the 5 for August, but I love the challenge!

    8/6 - 179 - I put on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously???? Time to get serious :explode:
    8/14- 174.2 - so if we were logging total weight loss then yay, I've hit target, look I've lost 5 since last week! :tongue:
    8/19
    8/26

    So the reality is that even though I have 'lost' 5 already some of that 5 was gained in the first week. And I have one more week before I go to Spain on holiday so who knows where I'll be by the end of the month. So far I've lost 2.6 and that's ok :smile:

    Total weight lost - 2.6

    I was on vacation this week, so a slight gain =/ I'm glad it's not higher, but I'm frustrated I let myself slide. Hopefully I can get back to losing for next week's weigh in.
