I think I can, I think I can...... only .4 away to reaching my goal this month. The push is on and I must watch everything that I eat until Saturday. I can do this!6

At the rate I've been going the last few months I wonder what I'm still doing here, but I'm determined to beat back that voice that says "I can't do this" so here I am again for July.
July start weight: 250.25
July goal weight: 242
Ultimate goal weight (to start): 190
July 7: 252 Not off to a very good start, will do better this week. Walking here I come:)
July 14: 246 Payed attention to my carbs and tracking this week it seems to have helped
July 21: 243.75 Still watching carbs and tracking, seems to be working...who knew! LOL!
July 28: 243.25 A bit disappointed, had a day that I didn't track and made bad choices, paying the piper I guess. At least going in the right direction.
Don't be disappointed! You've lost 7 pounds this month and that's a great result! You're doing fab!6 -

Hi all,...I'm a liiiittle late to the month here. In the past these monthly challenges here on mfp have been helpful for me and I'm struggling a bit this month so I found ya'll! My goal is to lose 1 - 1.5lbs per week. I would say best of luck to everyone but it's not luck, am I right?! Let's go get it!!!

July 22: My starting weight joining this month 136.5
July 29: 134.6, I'm back on track!! A change in my nutrition was everything for me. Keeping my carbs at a round about 100g a day and increasing my protein. Keeping my work outs consistent. Let's finish the month strong, pals!

Mfp start weight: 287.2
July Start Weight: 270.1
July Goal Weight: 265
Ultimate Goal Weight: 160
July 2: 270.1. Started today because I finally lost the water weight from last weekend in Chicago with my in-laws, but Iβll be absent next week due to a week in Minneapolis with my parents and my BFF. Have a lower goal this month as a result.
July 9: traveling
July 16: 270.9. Not bad. Itβs been hard to do much exercise as my back has been pretty bad. Itβs been a lot of effort trying to get back on track this week after 2 vacations on 2.5 weeks, but things are finally getting back to normal.
July 22: 268.1: went to a chiropractor Monday because my lower back pain has been keeping me from being able to be active. It is already improving so much and I am slowly adding more activity back in. With the inflammation, I figured i would be stalled in the 270s another week, so a pair of drops on Wednesday and Thursday were a welcome sight.
July 30: 265.7 down 4.4 pounds this month and within the whole number of my goal!!! Back pain is down substantially: i was able to actually go on a walk both today and yesterday with no pain and minimal discomfort.8 -

July 31: 208.4
(+ 0.4)
I gained 0.4 lb since last week. Not going to log it in my chart though, as I think it's just water weight from salty snacks the last few days. I feel like my birth control is messing with me a bit...
I didn't quite reach my goal, but I'm still proud of losing 4.9 pounds. So close to that 5 pound mark, ugh.
Oh well, I'll try to do better next month!5 -

July 31: 148.8 (148 is a 10% loss since last Dec.)
HI everyone, I needed to step back from this for a while. My weight was still stuck and my Dr. visit on the 8th resulted in finally being put on a diuretic for my BP, which I had been trying so hard to avoid through weight loss, exercise and diet. That itself is causing a drop in my weight (and some improvement in BP), but I feel like I can't trust the scale to tell me my true weight now. Body measurements, maybe? I can put up that I reached my goal for this month and I'm happy it's a loss with partly water weight at least. I'm going to try again to lose a couple more in August. Congrats on all your wins this month, no matter what they are. β₯4 -

I was 137.8 yesterday, but I ate out for dinner last night. This is mostly sodium and weight of food.

First time I have made my monthly goal since April.

My name is Donna. I am 61 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US.
Start Weight (from June 30th): 196.4
Goal Weight: 191.4
End of Challenge Weight: 192.4
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (Iβll know it when I get there!)
July 01: 197.6 Up a bit today. I think everything is finally catching up and leveling after a false low weight due to illness. I think this is likely my true weight. My plan is to make some changes and see some changes! Good luck everyone this round.
July 03: 197.8 Up and down this past week by a pound here and there. Itβs been a socially challenging week but I am staying committed.
July 10: 197.6 Another week of teeter-tottering. Lots of travel and sitting in cars. I am still up from my starting weight (which was my lowest in years). Getting a grip here this week so I can get back to steady and true lasting progress!
July 17: 195.4 Itβs not looking like Iβll make goal (which was a bit hefty, but a girl can dream!). However, I am OVERJOYED that I am finally making some progress. Nowβ¦β¦the hard partβ¦β¦.. To Keep It Up!
July 24: 196.6 A bit of a set-back with some travel this past week including yesterday. Today I will try for an extra low calorie day to jolt or jumpstart my progress again. All indoor activity is planned. Raining cats & dogs here.
July 31: 192.4 Wow! A very nice loss this past week. A solid loss of 4 pounds in July and I am very pleased with that even though I did not make my personal goal. Congrats to everyone who participated this month. So many losses and accomplishments. See you in the August thread.

Missed my goal by .4 but Iβm ok with that. Not a stellar month but a loss is a loss. I find it much harder to lose the weight in the summer than I did in the spring. Looking forward to a good August and hopefully breaking into the 130βs.7 -
