    Goal weight on August 31st: 129 for the third month in a row I have lost the last 2 months but just a little so never quite make it to goal hopefully this month.

    08/01: 132.0lbs TOM
    08/08: 131.4lbs glad to see I did go down a little after a bad weekend of not as much water and not so great food (just because I was at my parents and they don't always have the best choices. One day I brought some of my own fruit to snack on but forgot on the next day. Still haven't seen anything under 130. Maybe next week.
    08/15: 129.6lbs I am happy I did different activities this weekend and got my visit to gym in both days but I also ate at Olive Garden and didn't make best food choice there but progress:)
    08/22: 129 I got a new scale that is dial so no more point anything for me the new scale does give same weight as old though. It is hard to read my scale but we will make do.
    08/29: 127 figured out how to be able to see my scale (I never realized I was that tall ) Just needed more light surpassed my goal so happy
    08/31 : 126 I am erring on the side of caution since my scale is not digital but it was dang close to 125 my ultimate goal I can't believe I made it I started mfp on a whim and didn't think I would loose anything but here I am almost 44lbs lighter:smile:


    I won't be joining next months challenge since I made it but I want to wish everyone good luck! You can do it!
    Thank you bmfraz for the support and running this thread. Thank you for the challenges I may try to check in and still do a non weight challenge now and again. And gaurenteed I will continue to log for some time yet maybe forever.:happy:

    08/08: 173-hopefully due to TOM...otherwise I'm gonna be super bummed! I worked really hard this week!
    08/15: 174- seriously?!!? I am going the wrong way!
    08/22: 174
    08/29: 173
    08/31: 172

    and I bet tomorrow when I weight in I willbe back at my start weight for the month. the numbers above deifinately show I need to shape up on the weekends because monday weight-ins have been BRUTAL to me. I usually do not fluctuate this much so need to get my head in the game and bust it out next month!

    This is the last update for the month of August. Everyone did great this month! We had 9 people reach their goal and lots more come close.

    Our biggest loser for the month is based off % of BW lost.
    1st place goes to ZOE67 with 6.40% of her body weight lost over the month. She also dropped an amazing 11 pounds!
    2nd place goes to Millietner with 5.88% of her body weight lost and 7 pound missing.
    3rd place goes to Curlywurly88 with 4.71% and 8 pounds gone!

    Congrats to everyone with sticking with it this month. I hope to see you guys on the flip side in September.

    Here is the spreadsheet for one last look.

    Sorry I missed the last weigh in :( This was a bit of a crazy week. My final weight was actually up to 212.4. Gotta get back on this horse in Sept. Gotta start looking hot for the holidays!
