    Retaining a ton of water from salty foods and extra exercise yesterday. (I'm so thirsty lol). It'll drop off again, hopefully still in time to see an even lower number on the scale this month.

    My personal goal for the month of August is to get back to my lowest weight and lose 5 more pounds!….kind of ambitious but I am up for the challenge!…I am tired of playing around just because I feel comfortable at this weight…

    Me too - tired of playing around! My goal is to get back to my lowest weight - less 2.8 pounds! 165. I'm starting to think that an "extreme" month might be okay. For me, these days, a "moderate" month brings on acute "I"m starving" mentality - and a binge. So I might as well try to get some serious weight loss in before that hits????

    I haven't been here in a while ...
    Started August 2020 at 290 lbs.
    At of this morning I weigh 219.8 lbs.

    Current loss is 70.2 pounds ! I'm actually still up 2.5 pounds from vacation last week I'm hoping to get below what I was before vacation by Friday morning! I can do this !
    I really would like to get to 80 pounds lost in August for my 1 year on this journey !
    When I get to that I won't have much more until I make it to onederland!

    This is probably about the end of this month's loss cycle. I think I might have one more drop once my hydration evens out (I'm so thirsty). Not dropping as fast as I want (ugh sub 200 feels SO FAR AWAY), but again, I survived another vacation and still saw some loss. And that is success.

    Pretty significant success!!!

    Thanks Laurie! I appreciate the encouragement! It doesn't always feel like it...still another 9 lbs to go to get to where I was last year (I'm still mad I let myself backslide so much. I'm about where I was this time last summer). I try not to let myself think about where I'd be if I had just stayed on track last winter. So I keep reminding myself of the wins.
    1. I caught the regain before it got any worse (it was about 20-25 lbs, depending on who's scale I used).
    2. I didn't get discouraged at the regain and give up completely (and gain it all back, like many previous efforts). Instead I jumped back in and have been steadily losing since May
    3. I had to adapt to a surprise new way of eating in June (very low saturated fat), which meant some of my usual go-to meals and foods were quite literally off the table.
    4. I survived 2 vacations with family with limited to no food tracking, and managed to still lose some weight each month.
    5. Even though I had some regain, I know that this is sustainable long-term, even through major life stresses (pandemic, the decline and loss of my grandma, complete re-org and downsizing at work and surviving multiple rounds of layoffs, etc...).

    Looking. On. The. Kitten*ing. Bright. Side.

    Oh, I got a bonus scale drop today, ending at 201.4 :wink:

    I think there's a lot to celebrate there! Just catching the regain before it got worse is a HUGE victory (said by the woman who lost 40kg and regained 36kg of them...). You should feel really proud of what you've achieved, especially when real life throws challenges your way.

    199.4

    Wasn't expecting to see that this month!!! It has been a minute since I've seen a number starting with a 1 (last fall, specifically, and prior to that....12 years?) and boy does it feel good. I definitely wasn't expecting this month's drop cycle to last so long (or to end up where it is!). I know it will float around here for a while, especially since we'll be on vacation in another week and a half (including a long flight - hello water retention and Anchorage!). But man does it feel good. I've almost caught up to where I was before and can start making new progress again.

    Wow, well done! And it’ll be so great when you start making inroads into virgin fat!
