    A bit late logging this. Beginning to think 59kg was very ambitious!

    Well my old scales lied to me it made me think I was below 11st when I am actually 11st 4lbs. So all this times I thought I was doing well I was actually being lied to so I have brought new electronic scales. I am still happy that I have lost 34lbs altogether.

    @Forest91 how frustrating! Try not to let it get you down! I know you've totally got this! 34 pounds is a big deal! I hope you had a good birthday!

    Just curious if anyone else uses the Happy Scale app? Finding it helpful to track the high/low fluctuations. Nice work everyone!

    @lolo_bunny : yes! I do use the Happy Scale app! I was getting negatively obsessed with the scale numbers and it really helped to put things in perspective!

    Good loss so far this month by the way! Go you!

    Do we just post a new one each week with same format? Too bad can't just add to one posting. My first challenge. Thank you.

    I'm with you on this. Never tried to join a challenge before. Biggest obstacle so far is trying to find it again. I can't seem to get the bookmark to work.

    Good luck to you and all on this journey with us!


    Here's my post for this week:

    @joans1976 Fantastic results! Great job! Keep up the good work!

    @LynnEllen64 Thank you for noticing! Loss is slowing down as I get into lower numbers but I am adjusting!
    You've done great too! 4 pounds gone never to return!
    As far as finding the challenge and bookmarking it, did you press the little star in the upper right next to the original post of this thread? Then if you go under community and press the star at the top (there will be 5 icons-a star, a search, a pencil-looking thing and 2 others I can't remember right now) it should have a list of your "starred" or saved threads and you can pick this one, search for your last post (I tend to scan by the last date I entered a weight) and copy and paste it. Then just add your new weight and any comments you want.
    I hope that helps and this wasn't too long winded!
