    Aug SW: 60,5kg
    Aug GW: 57kg
    Ultimate GW: 55kg

    1: take a 15 min - 1hour walk with dog every day at 8 after I've dropped kids off.
    2: talk to my husband when I feel down or tired (instead of eating). And then take a 15 min break on my bed.
    3: be present with the kids in the afternoons after school. Play Lego, fetch S early, play hide and seek, build puzzles, kick a ball, play dominoes.

    GW by end of August: 165
    Final GW: 140

    8/7 - Better day yesterday. Monday through Friday are definitely my better days though so the real test will be the weekend. Met all my goals by about 4pm. The easiest thing right now is meeting my step goal but, ironically, the most challenging thing is going for the two walks. Sometimes I just don't feel like it!

    Lost this thread and just found it again.

    SW mid-July: 173
    CW Aug 13: 165
    GW: 145-150

    My three things:
    1. Continue with my semi-fast breakfast, which has reduced my appetite
    I'm successfully doing this, eating one banana and drinking tea and as much water as I want. I've gotten used to it now.

    2. A protein-filled salad every day
    I love salads and look forward to my salad meal every day.

    3. Walk/run every day
    New runner. I'm walking and slow jogging 5.5 miles a day outside. I can jog about 3 miles straight. I'm trying to build my strength to jog uphill.

    Good luck, everybody! <3

    Goal #1: Get at least 5,000 steps in per day (office jobs, am I right?)
    Goal #2: Hit the gym at least 4 days per week
    Goal #3: Continue to weigh food instead of measuring by size - (eg 1 cup can be 50g or 90g worth of food depending on how stuffed you make it!!)

    PS if you are looking for a good food scale, try London Drugs - I love mine and I got it on sale for $30. I went for a nice glass one so I don't hate it sitting on my counter. Looks good and is a visual reminder to weigh my food!

    Checking in near the end! currently sitting 193 - and I'm ok with that! I've had a great month thus far and have spent lots of time in the Gym!

    Checking in...

    SW: 137.4
    GW by end of August: 132
    GW final: 120

    8/5 - 135.6
    8/20 - 133
    8/26 134.4

    I had a weekend away and that made it harder to eat well. Did better at work today with not eating as many treats! We'll see how my final weigh in (9/1) goes!
    Even though I may not make my August goal, I'm still encouraged by my weight loss. Slow and steady, right? :)
