Total loss for September: None - Gained 0.6 lbs
I'm not making any excuses - I know that I haven't been doing much cardio this week so that's that. Although, I did have my annual physical and all my lab work is good so that's a plus.
I will try to add biking to my cardio since my knees aren't so good. Also, my doc said to avoid arm strength exercises for another week to give my muscles time to recover. I did overexert myself a few weeks ago which caused some pain in my right shoulder. I'm happy that I didn't gain more (and let's face it, I know it comes from my eating habits, lol).
Let's just keep rolling along everyone and keep up our pace!5 -

Hi all,
Jumping in a bit late, but I'm here now! I'm 5'3" and currently weigh 145.4 lbs, which puts me 5.4 lbs away from my goal weight (and a healthy BMI). I am aiming to lose 1 lb. a week, although I average .5 lbs a week.
Original starting weight: 172
September starting weight: 146
I weigh in on Fridays, so here goes:
8/31/18: 146
9/7/18: 145.4
Full disclosure: yesterday was my birthday and I did indulge in a *gasp* hamburger and an ice cream cone. Yesterday morning, I weighed in at 144.6, which put me at -1.4 lbs for the week, but I'm going to post what the scale said this morning for accountability.
Next week's goal: 144.4.6 -
Sept.1- 248.0
Sept.247.68 -
I have never done this before. I am looking for an accountability piece to motivate me. I’m not sure how to update my own post each week.

Just copy and paste your original post onto a notepad on your computer. Then pull it up each week, add to it, save it, then copy & paste it into this forum. Best wishes to you!1 -
Updating this today as i dont know if i’ll get a chance tomorrow due to going on holiday!

Did you went from 338 to 189 by using this app only? Any advice you could give would be of much help to me, I'm 213lb hoping to get to 150lbs. Thanks
I've only used this app for my weight loss journey when it comes to calorie counting, logging and workouts. I lost my first 70 lbs doing only that along with the amazing support in these groups. half way through my journey i decided to get weight loss surgery to help me finally reach my goals. this is how i have gotten to where i am now. 70 lbs on my own and the rest with the help of WLS but STILL lots of working out and calorie counting.

I did purchase a VeryFitPro wristband, so I’m able to see how many steps I take and calories burned! I plan to go grocery shopping sometime this weekend & buy healthy snacks/foods so I’m not tempted to keep grabbing the first thing I see!

Total loss for September: Almost a pound. I'm doing a few challenges currently, and this is the only one that I can feel a little better about, and it's just because of normal fluctuations and what the scale actuall reported this morning.
More information:
Backslider here.
I attained my weight loss goal in early July at 144.2. I moved from weight loss to weight maintenance and recomposition to metabolize a little more fat and build a little more lean mass. I didn't participate in the Lose Five in August challenge.
After I got back from a river trip and a dive trip, I started a small weight increase over a couple weeks to the point that I'm over my goal range again. So it's time to get back to a goal of losing a half pound a week until I'm in the bottom half of my goal range.
I am still participating in monthly maintenance challenges, like this one, but for now I'll also be in weight loss mode.7 -

I'm baaaaccck!! I am -1 lb away to where I left off in since mid-July!
What am I doing? OMAD! (One meal a day). Healthy meals. Not keto diet per se but I do make keto recipes.
Upped my water intake 6 to 9 cups of water daily
Exercise, of course!
Carbs: Low/Moderate No less than 80g to 150g, however it has been much lower lately. I'm working to increase it. Fat: Moderate 70 to 80g
I refuse to have Keto Rash--never again--EVER!
August 27th: 193.4/194.0*
***Started OMAD on Sept. 4th*****
September 8th: 188.8 lbs!!
Final weigh-in (perhaps): Sept. 15th
It depends, if I feel good throughout the month then I may weigh-in after the 15th but I do think it's healthy for me to stay away from the scale; I like these little surprises!
I feel good. I feel great. OMAD is a challenge but when done correctly--it ROCKS! So far so good....

@SuzOh When I finally hit 197 I knew I was in onederland to stay. Any bounce up would not put me out of the 100's, I was confident in that and I was right. You are almost there and you should be so proud of all your progress since January. You've got this!2
