    I'm going to try to lose 5 but I have doubts....this worked great for me over several months but as I'm in my "home stretch" my loss has slowed down and I wonder if I'm able to lose 5 lbs in a month but I will try! :)

    Well done everybody and see you in the November group! :smile:

    February loss 12lbs
    March loss 7lbs
    April loss 10lbs
    May loss 5lbs
    June loss 0lbs
    July loss 3lbs
    August...3lbs

    October...1.8lbs

    165lbs on 2/1/13 when I started back on MFP

    10/11...121
    10/18...121
    10/25...120
    10/31...120

    I hope to lose my last 3lbs this month. Then on to maintenance.

    I pretty much hit my goal. I may try to lose to another pound or 2 at some point so that 120 is the high point in my fluctuations, not the low. I have been with this thread since I started in February, it's been fun and kept me accountable.
