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!1 -

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!

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?0 -
