    Height: 5'6"

    Start Weight (July 1): 187.8
    Goal Weight (August 1): 185

    Weigh-ins (Sundays):

    July 1: 187.8
    July 10: 187.6
    July 17: 187.0
    July 24: 186.3

    August 1: 186.0

    Weight -/+ this week: -.3
    Weight -/+ this month: -1.8

    Successes/struggles this week: Lots of things contributed to some water-weight retention this past week. Both good and bad. I walked/jogged my first 5K on Thursday! My time wasn't amazing, but at least now I have a goal time to improve on! So that was great. I also went swimming in a friends pool this week (finally! first time in years!), and that was a lot of fun. But then I also ate a lot of salty food this week, and TOM showed up, so all in all, not a great week for weight loss. But just at the end here, the scale went down 4lbs over Sunday and Monday (I use a trend weight for my weigh-ins though.) So it seems my body finally decided to get rid of all that water! Looking forward to next August's challenge. These are great for keeping me motivated.

    Is there a thread up for just August Weight Loss? I don't see one just for the month. Thanks.

    Some people have posted their previous months progress, but I'm sure you can just stick to August. If you decide to start up a different one though, please let us know! :smiley:
