    (1st June:)

    Weight lost/gained this week: -2.5
    Weight lost/gained this month: -4

    Successes/struggles this week: In the lead-up and leaving on vacation, I didn't have a chance to post... The scale caught up!
    I know that I have lost more, since, but with no scale, I can't really make that official, now, can I?!? For the next couple of months, I'll be relying on measurements and the fit of clothes to tell how I'm doing...

    I've set up the June Challenge, and I'll be cheering you all on!

    Where have you set it up, Elizabeth?

    But have managed to end the challenge losing it and a new 1lb. Walked 7 miles at the beach and started exercising again, so that's definitely something I must keep going for June.
