    Ok, Buzz, you're still down for the month. Just get back on track and keep it up!
    I'm having a good month. Walking an hour every day; keeping track of food, feeling good. Good luck, all!

    I've been horsing around with too many foods that I know give me trouble. Trying to moderate trigger foods doesn't work for this gal.
    Back to business this week!

    I'm calculating my average calories to see where my sweet spot is. I should be able to lose very well in the 1600 - 1800 range.

    Reached a long awaited goal this week of 25lbs lost, but also treated myself with a campfire cooked s'more! Will have to use lots of willpower not to eat too many more of those!

    7/05 Sat: 263.6 - gained 3 lbs... pretty sure it's from my sodium intake. I have lowered my calories and put on sedentary so I don't over estimate calories burned and I'm hoping this will help!
    7/12 Sat: 263.4 - at least I didn't gain.... I have been slacking big time this week with being off work! Going to get back at it though :)
    7/19 Sat: 262.8 - slowly losing the weight I gained back - TOM put me a little behind as well

    Not the loss I hoped for, but it's a downward move on the scale so I am happy! I lowered my calorie goal, and plan to dial back a little more this coming week to keep the momentum going and hopefully amp up the loss a bit..

    Marinadanielle, good job! Good luck reaching onderland this month!

    May not make 5 lbs. this month, which isn't surprising since I lose weight at a snail's pace. But at least it is a downward trend!

    Just trying to stick to the plan and not let the massive water fluctuations get to me. This last week has been crazy with daily 5 lb fluctuations all while holding to a pretty similar eating pattern.

    Unexpected fluctuations the past two days. My weight went down to 194.8 and then up to 196. I'm sure (fingers crossed) it will go back down in a day or two so not fully worried. But yes, my scale sucks.
