    Anyone ready to check in!?

    A little about me: I lost 25 pounds (in about 2-3 months) 2 years ago through monitoring calories and running. Kept it off for around 8 months but then had a period of time where I was extremely depressed. Gained all of it back and maintained that weight (luckily not more!) until about 3 weeks ago when I realized how easy it was the first time...once I willed myself (the hardest part!) to start again. On 7/17 I set a short term goal to lose 10 pounds by my birthday (8/17), and then I'll slow down my goals (I know I can't sustain 2 pounds a week once I hit that weight).

    Starting weight (Tuesday 7/19) = 154.6
    Current weight (Saturday 7/23) = 152.2
    Short term goal weight (Wednesday 8/17) = 145.x
    Long term goal weight (End of 2016) = 130.x

    How is everyone else doing? What are your short term/long term goals? Hope everyone is hanging in there!

    Thanks for sharing your story! Good job on getting back on track. That can sometimes be the hardest part: just starting!

    I am doing pretty well this challenge so far. Only one day has been bad. I am down half a pound so far.

    I would like to get back to 130 this challenge and my long-term goal is 125.

    How is everyone else doing?

    First check in!

    Starting weight (19/07): 141.2
    Weigh in 1 (24/07): 139.6
    Goal weight (01/08): 138
    End weight:
    Pounds lost: 1.6

    I've changed my goal weight from 139 to 138. I've been losing steadily on 1lb a week, so I based it on that, but losing 0.6lbs in the next week just seems too easy for a challenge.

    Excuse my British dates!

    Came to community looking for some motivation today and lo and behold....just one week seems like a good place to start. Not sure about weight...clothes too tight and I don't feel fit. I'll check weight at the gym WHEN I go TODAY : )

    I am just getting back to working out and counting calories, so the first few days show a pretty good drop.

    That is exactly why I am here too! I typically do not have to wear "professional" clothes in the summer, but needed to last week. I was surprised to find a lot of my clothes were tight!

    Great so far! I'm really happy with the progress I've made with the end of July, and I'm so close to breaking through to the 140's I can almost taste it!

    Starting weight (Tuesday 7/19) = 154.6
    Current weight (Wednesday 7/27) = 151.8

    I'll be doing my final weigh-in for this thread on Monday 8/1. A great way to hold myself accountable for the weekend so I can get a great number on the scale Monday morning!

    Does anyone know of/is doing an August challenge? I really want to start one for the very beginning of the month so I have a place to check in throughout.

    Congratulations on your progress and commitment.
    I am joining the 30 day shred challenge for August.

    As for the how am I doing? Sadly I have not had a great week. I was finishing an online course, so I have been sitting all day everyday and stuffing my face to suppress my stress. I need to work on strategies to get away from the kitchen while working. I think I need to try the public library. I handed in my big project yesterday so today I did go for a big walk, cut up some veggies for nibbling and I will embrace the weekend as a time for freedom and a lot more movement.

    Have a great day folks!
