I do hope you will all stick with us. Remember weight loss isn't linear, there will be gains and stand-stills as well as losses. It's totally normal and sometimes hard to see that it's working in the beginning when water weight fluctuations make your weight vary more than you've lost, don't be discouraged. Don't forget there are some helpful tips in the group threads and feel free to drop me an add or a message if you're finding yourself a bit stuck or down

Well done to @purch2 our biggest loser for August great losses for @var2speedy @Volbeat79 @trevorw52 and @phickman07

Welcome newbs @bellissimaluna @CindyWard2 @eatingems @misswizard @NiceSpydr @PermissionGranted and @Volbeat79, this is our monthly progress report you will be able to see in the first one how you're doing in relation to your start and goal weight (I find this sometimes helps when you feel like you've been stuck for a week or so at the same weight to remember how well you've done in the bigger picture and in the second chart the loss for the month. For those who are new this may not be a very high number because you might only have been logging for a week or two, so don't let that discourage you.

Well done to @mihimamao biggest loser for October and to @mandyme211 @Nurturegirl @trevorw52 and @fanscie916 also with great losses.

Welcome to our newbs, hopefully you will stick with us @chardonais21 @fanscie916 @Heather_J_May @heidihurl @joanedith3 @LivinglegacySA @mandyme211 @mfpchris and @mihimamao

Big congrats to biggest loser for November @trevorw52 with a whopping 9lbs lost, also big well done to @mandyme211 and @fanscie916 who also had some fantastic results.

I guess the numbers might dwindle a bit this time of year as people are more focused on the holiday periods and celebrating with friends and family (and rightly so), I will as always continue to update the sheets and charts throughout December, don't worry if you take a break, I keep the data from previous months and it's no issue to re-add the lines to the charts.

I hope those of you across the Atlantic had a Happy Thanksgiving and would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

December's results might be a couple of days delayed as I will be travelling over to see family in the UK.
