I'm shocked because I haven't been particularly good this week, had three days where I was over my 1,200 calories (one of those days I was almost 600 calories over!) I guess what MFPers say is true, the calorie counts are guides and it's okay to not be so true to the numbers. Makes sense, being over because of grilled salmon & broccoli is better than being over from eating two Krispy Kreme donuts, maybe.?!
Super month. You did so good. Keep it up.0 -
July
3rd - 199.9lbs
8th - 197.3lbs - weeks loss:2.6lbs
15th -196.2lbs - weeks loss: 1.1lbs
22nd - 200.8lbs - weeks gain 4.6lbs .......the day I got home from holiday
29th - 198.1lbs - weeks loss 2.7lbs

Successes/Struggles this week: This was a month filled with frustrations. Covered in poison ivy, sleepless, and burdened at work. I lost two weeks of working out to the poison ivy, but have been able to get started again. It feels so good. I never thought I would ever say that. I did not hit my goal, which was a surprise, but I learned some new things about stasis and patience. As always I am grateful to be able to be mobile, to be able to think clearly, and to be able to laugh about my own ridiculousness.1 -

I am up 1.4 lbs for July. But I had two July 4th celebrations, a 10 day vacation and two BD parties. I know those are just excuses but I am back to logging and will get that 1.4 lbs off by my next mini vacation in 3 weeks.
My challenge is just to stay the same for July. With all the festivities and vacation.

Great job everyone!
Ending wgt for month 168.2
Didn't quite reach my goal but any loss is good in my book! Great job everyone!1 -
@vicky1947mfp how much weight are you trying to lose? Or are you in maintenance?
I am at maintenance. I have lost 47 lbs and trying to stay at 115 lbs. These challenges keep me accountable. I am up 1.4 from vacation. Trying to stay within 3 lbs of my 115 maintenance weight.1 -
WTG everyone. There are several August challenges on The Challenges board. Let's all join one and keep going.
I am on maintenance and trying to stay at my goal weight. Which is just as (or even harder) than losing.
Good luck to all.0
