Trending down but that's a-ok with me. Not sure what I'm doing differently to make this happen though. I used to be in the 140s but I had almost no muscle then so I figured I'd weigh a little more now.

I seem to be averaging about a half a pound a week. I’m not impatient about it, I’m grateful every time I see the number go down. The last couple months were full of outings, picnics, parties, beach days, an 18 road trip each way and then a week in a hotel and my numbers continue to go down. Not because I’m lucky, but because I make a conscious effort everyday, at every meal, to continue on this path. I find the best plan for me is pre-logging my meals the day before and following my diary, weighing my food and being honest!1 -

Nice to see the 50's today, it's been a while. Had to drop back the walking miles as my leg/ankle wasn't handling 4 miles/day well. Wrist is very slowly improving but still doing modified workouts. I think I have my head straight for food. I'm so used to increasing workouts to drop weight that this is very difficult changing my mindset. Was reminded by a coworker this week that we don't bounce back as quickly as we used to...agree with the sentiment but not pleased to be told I'm getting old! 48 is not old, but it is older than I think I am.4 -

Not going down as quickly as I would like, but the scale is moving in the right direction. I am coming to terms that I may not be able to run any distance soon/ ever. All I can do is keep moving and eating well. Slow and steady wins the race.3 -

Well I want to punch the scale this morning. Presented like that it looks like a slow week.
My week went like this:
7/22: 129.2
7/24: 129.0
7/26: 128.5
7/28: 128.1 <---so close!
7/29: 129.2
And I stuck to my calorie goals, came super close on my macros...I know I've been stressed. My youngest has had a bad bug for days and I've been lacking sleep, UNTIL last night. I went to bed 2 hours early and slept the best sleep I've slept in days. I thought that'd make me more likely to hit my goal, not less. Darn. Well I'm going to come back on the 31st and do a non-Sunday weight in for the official end of the month, maybe there is still a chance.4 -
Height: 5'9"
SW (this time around): 148.7
GW: 135
July goal - maintain weight and build muscle
Feb: 148.7
March 1: 147
April 1: 142
May 1: 140.6
June 1: 140.8 (moving average 137.7)
July 1: 135 (moving average 135.2)
July 8: 133.2 (moving average 134.5)
July 15: 131 (moving average 131.7)
July 29: 134 (moving average 131.5)
Yesterday was a blast but not so good on the food front. That weight is definitely water (I’ve been weighing in around or below 131 all week until today) but I’m hoping the bloat goes away quickly because my final wedding dress fitting is this week.4 -
July 1: 133 - 23.7% BF
July 8: 131.7 - 22.5%
July 15: 128.6 - 22.5%
July 22: 128.9 - 22.1 %
July 29: 128.9- 22.1%
July Goal: 129 / 22.7%
GW: 125 but focus on BF
Basically maintained but saw 127.9 this week, a new low! 125... maybe soon... Hanging out here or below makes me happy though. Gotta get bacon (ha, meant to say *back* but spellcheck knows me apparently) to the WOE that was working all month, took two days off Fri/Sat and bloated up instantly. But overall in all it’s been a good month with good logging.5 -

I've been very absent recently so will catch back up on the new thread (heading off to start that now). July has been...a challenge. The heat really got to me and I couldn't be bothered with the gym (despite the aircon) and was rather lax with my eating habits. This week I have been to the gym twice already, going again tomorrow, so with the exception of one 5 day break I hope to be back on track.
