    @Betty, nice work!

    @Gen, congratulations! glad you found a good number

    @Dana, thirding what the others have said - could definitely been fluctuations due to sodium or hormones

    @Natalie, welcome! looks like awesome progress already

    Down to 129.2 today. I'm glad I decided to start weighing regularly, every day this week I've seen .1 or .2 pound drop, which is really encouraging because I have never in my life had consistent loss - I've always been stuck for weeks, suddenly lost a pound or three, then a few weeks later right back up again. So I don't know what I'm doing differently but I like it.

    Happy news Gen and Coady! Today I am 133, so down .6 pounds from last week ( but still up .6 pounds from two weeks ago). So I won't complain considering we had a vacation week with lots of social stuff. But I have to I make sure I don't just keep fluctuating but really go down in the long run!

    Had a bad weekend of sugary snacks so I am giving this week's weigh in a miss, and hoping to have made some decent progress by next week!

    I didn't weigh myself for few weeks because I was seriously slacking but as of last week I'm back on track and have lost 3kg recently.

    28 July: 74kg
    18 August: 71kg

    (Goal:64kg)

    57.6 kg's today down 2.3 kg's in total but only 300 grams for the last week which really is not that thrilling! However work pants do feel better :laugh:

    Thank you!!! :)

    As I'm getting closer to my goal weight (and being a "normal" weight now) I'm finding the weight is coming off slower, which I understand is normal but can I aim to lose 1kg a week from now onwards or is it too much? I have 7kg more to go.

    Natalie: I think 1kg a week is really a lot. But it's up to you and what your body can do! I would aim more for 1 pound per week (or roughly half a kilo)

    I am at 145.4 this morning!! The lowest I've ever been and down 1 lbs!

    That's great Natalie! Yes I think 1 kg per week is the maximum considered safe, so it is acceptable but difficult. I try to lose about .5 kg per week.

    Betty, 300g is great, that's over half a pound ????. Nothing wrong with slow weight loss.

    Congrats Gen, the lowest you've ever been, that is so exciting!

    Lambe--I was stuck in the low 130s this whole year, and now I am finally losing. This group motivated me, and I think I have gotten much better about the tracking, which made the difference!
