August 2015 Weight Loss Challenge

edited November 2024 in Motivation and Support
Hi, Everyone!

This is a follow on from the July Weight Loss Challenge. It works the same way: You set your own goals, then weigh in each week. (Feel free to change the weigh-ins to suit your own schedule.) Everyone is welcome, no matter what your goals may be. You don't need to have done the July challenge to join in August.

You will copy the form below, and paste in in a new reply, adding your own information. Each week you will update in a new reply.

So, here goes:

    It's just occurred to me that I will need to buy all new clothes for the Christmas/holiday festivities this year...
    How cool that there is still time to make a huge difference in how I will look and feel by then!

    Grateful for another monthly weigh in challenge! I don't know if I'll be meeting my goal for July, but the check in accountability has been really helpful for me!

    Successes/struggles this week: Thanks for organizing this! I dropped a ton of weight last year and have gained about 20 pounds back since Jan 2015 thanks to some family health crises! Excited to be back on track and great to feel connected to others doing the same thing, even if only virtually!

    I'd love to join. I had a baby 8 months ago via ivf. Would love to loose weight before more fertility drugs to have a second. I have Pcos and it makes it hard to loose the weight. But i really need support and encouragement!!
