    Thank you for the encouraging words Jen. I will never give up. This month I had a little stumble but I’m gonna get right back up and push forward.

  • Original starting weight - 283
    July starting weight - 206.6
    July goal - Anything starting with a 1
    Initial goal - 160
    Reach goal - 141.5

    Total July loss: 12.8

    Comments: I'm not terribly surprised with the uptick this week -- had a couple of "eat all the things" days, plus the losses earlier this month were unusually large for me. Overall I'm pretty chuffed with July's progress. Goal for August: reaching the 180s!

    You broke the 200s!

    Original starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
    July starting weight - 147.4
    July goal - 145.5
    Ultimate goal - 145.0 (range between 142 - 148)

    June 30 - 147.4
    July 1 - 148.6
    July 8 - 146.6
    July 15- 145.2 (was under 145 three days in a row July 12, 13, and 14).
    July 22 - 147.4 -- just back from a river trip
    July 29 - 147.8 -- Um... was back down to 145 on Friday, but I guess I'm still eating like I'm on the river.
    July 31 -

    Total loss for July : Pretty much zero. Or is it 1.2 pounds? I guess it depends when the starting point is. I was down 3.6 pounds in June and 3.4 pounds in May. But I was up 2.0 pounds between May 31 and June 1. So I think I'm over-reporting my losses.

    I attained my weight loss goal this month when I hit 144.8 and ultimately 144.2. As such, I moved from weight loss to weight maintenance and recomposition to metabolize a little more fat and build a little more lean mass.

    I expect that this will be the last monthly weight loss challenge I participate in. I am going to start doing monthly MAINTENANCE challenges, like this one.

    Happy Sunday, everyone!

    Busy week, I nearly forgot to check in! Seeing small progress, finally got my average into the 202s, albeit barely.. Saw 2 new daily lows in one week. That hasn't happened in forever. I am happy with that.

    Highest weight ever: 254 in October 1999.

    Lowest since 1999: 195.

    Original starting weight: 243 in 2015.

    MFP Starting weight December 25th, 2016: 233

    Goal: 180 in however long it takes.

    Weekly averages:

    June 24th to July 1st: 203.1
    July 2nd to July 8th: 203.5
    July 9th to July 15th: 204.2
    July 16th to July 22nd: 203.5
    July 23rd to July 29th: 202.9. Wooohooo!

    Loss for July: 0.2 lbs. Better than nothing!

    MFP Loss: 30.1 lbs.

    Total cumulative loss since mid 2015: 40.1 lbs.

    Until next week,

    Move more, eat less.
