    I highly doubt I am going to meet my goal since I can' t loose anything. I have been working out a lot. I really haven't been eating too healthy this month but I have been trying to stay within my calories. My birthday is this week so doubt I'll be loosing anything.

    Maybe you don't need to lose any more? 125 pounds is a pretty low weight.

    Weight to height makes a major difference also.

    Diane--- everyone hits plateaus. It is hard but work through it. Maybe you need to change something up in your typical routine. Try a different work out plan. Happy birthday by the way!

    I'm 5'4. I admit 125 is a decent weight. I feel better at the low 120's. It is very hard for me to achieve. I was 122 last summer but after the holidays crept back up to the 130's. As far as working out I do: C25K Running (I'm on week 7), gym classes that have cardio and strength training, walk my dog everyday, I also do my own weight and ab routine about 3 days a week. I have always worked out at least 5 days a week. Its really just my eating. I stay within my calories but sometimes eat too many carbs. Carbs are my downfall. I am not too big into eating meat. I love carbs. I'm going to try to cut some out next week. I have been eating well these last 2 days. Thanks for asking.

    Goal weight on July 31st: 129 I don't know if I will make it I only have my stuff set at 1/2 pound per week because I am very close to my goal we will see how it goes last month was good May wasn't as good so we will see what July brings.

    07/01: 133.6lbs
    07/04: 134.8lbs
    07/11: 133.0lbs glad I'm going the correct way. I didn't get to fitness center at all last week and it was so hot over the weekend didn't get alot of exercise then either. This week I will do better so hopefully I can continue to see a downward trend and make my goal this month.
    07/18: 134.4 not good today but I know it is water gain went over on sodium yesterday and wasn't good about getting all my water in. Hopefully tomorrow when I weigh in it will be all gone and I will be back on track.

    Looks like alot of people are doing well and looking good still hoping to see a glimpse of the 120's this month.
    Just as I suspected today I am back down to 132.6:smile: It doesn't look like I will make my goal for this month again but at least I am still loosing although slowly.

    Glad I lost some this week as I couldn't exercise as much as I wanted to.

    I will be out of town over the weekend and back late Monday night. I will post first thing Tuesday morning unless the hotel has a scale in the gym. I am hoping for goodness this weekend due to lots of walking around Atlanta, GA.

    Thanks again for compiling all the results each week. I may not be a champ, but I am losing with the help of MFP.

    Congrats everyone for sticking with it and following through with your goals.

    The top loser for this week is ckarlovec with a drop of 3.8 pounds in one week! Her optional challenge to you this week is to break out your pedometer and manage to get in 10,000 steps a day. That should be around 5 miles a day. Remember that this is over the span of the day and doesn't require you to go for a 5 mile walk.

    2nd is pmorgan813 with a 3.6 drop!
    3rd place is bubblesburst80 with 3.5 pounds GONE!

    Congrats also to the 3 people that met their monthly goal this week!

    ----Still Missing 16 other people.

    My apologies for not posting on Monday, but my uncle passed away and I was out of town for funeral services. I really fell off the wagon last week but I am hoping ot pick back up this week and make it right! I am feeling a lot better so hopefully I can get back into exercising. Have a good week!

    Does anyone else not have a pedometer or is it just me? I'll do the sit-ups this week as didn't do them last week!
