    Lost another 6 lbs in August, for a total of 62 lbs gone. This, despite having decided early in August to MAINTAIN for the month, rather than lose. Turns out I had a really hard time eating enough calories every day to just maintain (did NOT want to get out of the habit of exercising every day!). But it was a fun month, eating-wise. Didn't bother to track much and basically just ate what I wanted to, within reason. Guess it's the "within reason" that made the difference... lol

    Thanks! Glad you're back, Laura @ObesityWarrior . End of September and I'm down a total of 72lbs. Can't update the spreadsheet tho cuz I'm on my phone. Will try to do it on Monday when I'm back on the laptop. Although maybe it's a moot point since it appears I'm the only one left doing your challenge lol.

    If you complete the challenge that is great. It looks like you will. 72lb is amazing. It was never a competition, just a place to record progress.

    Actually it is a competition with inner munching demons and you are most definitely winning :) .

    Good job! I'm still doing the challenge, but definitely more like a tortoise. I hit 55 lbs today. :)

    I have definitely lost a few months with this. I was aiming for May when I am supposed to be going to Sorrento. The holiday is now in jeopardy as there is no way I can do all that walking and sightseeing as I am right now :(

    There is still time between now and May to make a significant positive difference.

    Another 5lbs down for the month of November, for a total of 86 lbs. I'm thinking I'll just try to maintain during December/Holidays... I'll be happy not to have gained anything when Jan 1st rolls around. ;-)

    I kept putting it all back on too, though I managed to lose 96lb in last two years going from 340lb down to 244. When I was 28 I lost 126 lb and then gained 165 lb over the next few years. I am 40 now, The battle goes on
