    Weight went up this week, and I'm not sure why! I'm trying not to get discouraged and will stay focused. It's just a disappointment.

    July is history- don't berate yourself! You are back on track now. Don't know what your December goal is but you can definitely make it one day at a time.

    On track and have lost 5 pounds since starting MFP. Very pleased, but wary: I have lost these same 5 pounds many times! The trick will be to move forward and not immediately back track, as has been my history over many years. I greatly admire all of you out there who have lost many pounds.

    So it is August 24, and I am not at my goal weight of losing 12 lbs. Current weight is 237. At the beginning of august i was at 244. so 7 lbs isn't too bad.

    08/26/13: 203.2 (per home scale on 08/23/13)

    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!
