    My weight is up from yesterday. I guess it's probably water weight and history has shown that it will go back down. So even though I'm a bit annoyed lol I'm not that worried :)

    Up about 1.5 pounds from my end of July weight on Tuesday, but not too worried because TOM + starting to lift weights again this week= a couple pounds of water weight.

    I need to lose 5.4 lbs.. to reach my next goal.. I AM SOOOO IN!!!!

    SW: 130.4 (August 1st)
    CW: 130.4
    GW: (125)

    I was 127.4 when I went on vacation (a few weeks back) and I gained 9 lbs.. Yeah it was bad , ate things I don't normally. (wheat/sugar/salt/alcohol) Most of the gain came off in about 7 days. The last 2 lbs of vacation weight are a little more stubborn. My next goal weight is 125. Once I get there I will evaluate my next move.

    I am doing Crossfit, running, and ballet right now. And at home doing a personal 30 day abs/booty challenge. Two areas I really want to focus on!

    HI TO EVERYONE AND I KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE A GREAT MONTH!

    Happy August folks! Let's do this :)

    SW: 129.2
    CW: 129.2
    GW: 125

    May not seem like much of a goal but I have been stuck here for a long time. I went down to 124lbs and then gained it back with a couple of weeks of bad eating and some margaritas. At 42, metabolism is slower and everyone I know wants to lose weight but doesn't want to do the work! I like to motivate people but I need motivation too :)

    Please feel free to add me as a friend. If you're active daily, I would love to follow your journey :)
