    August 2 - 169.8
    August 9 - vacation no scale
    August 16- 171.2 - vacation weight
    August 23- 171.4 - wedding weekend
    August 30-


    Looks like I will not make this month's goal. As you can see some obstacles in my way.
    We had a wedding weekend. Friday night wedding and Saturday reception. Food was
    consumed on both days. I have been struggling these last 3 weeks. But I am happy
    to report that I lost 2.2 pounds from last week's weigh in. I am now 3.4 lbs. away from
    my ticker weight and I will continue this week to lose that and I will be back in the running.
    I will definitely be in next month's challenge.:bigsmile: NEVER GIVE UP!

    So this week's gain is water weight - I had a few days of indulgence but by logging everything it looks like I should have been eating at near maintenance this week, I certainly wasn't over by 10,500 calories required to gain 3lbs of fat! Here's to shifting that water gain so I'm back at my goal for the month. (This was why my goal was to only lose 3lbs this month - I knew we were away for a mini-break and I'd indulge).

    SW: (Starting weight) 12st5.5 or 173.5lbs

    Not sure if I'm going to hit the 5 pounds- had one week where I only dropped .2 and I really did log everything and I exercised, but 3.2 so far for August is not bad, and a little over 7 since the last weekend in July is pretty good I think. Finally the scale moved this week!
