    -14lbs this month

    I've been working my a** off with a healthy diet and exercise. I'm proud for all I've done this month and looking forward to crushing it in August. I am aiming for an 8-10lbs loss for August. I'm glad everyone is doing well! We should definitely do an August thread.

    I know we've started the next month's thread, but just wanted to reply here to say - holy heck, you are doing great!
    By my calculations you've lost 52 pounds in a little more than 10 weeks. That's literally working your *kitten* off!

    Makes sense to me to reduce your monthly goal a bit, but I wouldn't put it past you to crush that, too! :)
    Congrats and great work!!

    Hi, Wednesday post
    Age 47
    Height 5’ 6”
    SW 244 (June 1, 2021)
    7/14: 231
    7/21: 228.1
    7/28: 225.8
    8/4: 224.8
    Current goal: 220 by end of August and keep exercising when work starts up (school)

    I hit my goal for July, but had a hard week — on Sunday I was craving bread and ate too much, and in one hour really threw myself off track and now I have just barely lost one pound this I week, but I DID get back on track and hopefully I am able to keep tracking downwards.

    If I can meet the August goal — whenever it is met — that’s 10% of my starting weight, which is a bit of a milestone to me,

    (is ONEderland having a ONE as the first digit? I love that!!)

    Happy Wednesday everyone.

    I'm struggling a little bit - been working out (gym 3x/week, long walks 2-3x/week) and I'm not seeing ANY loss. I'm wondering if I should be eating back some/all of my exercise calories. I'm going to try that for a few days and see if it jumpstarts my losses again. I'm big enough that I should be dropping steadily!

    Do you all eat your exercise calories? Or stick to your daily allotment and ignore the exercise calories altogether?

    I normally eat back 75-90% of my exercise calories. Seems to be doing well for me so far. I’d like to hear what everyone else is doing :)

    @kadohi yes Onederland is starting with a one. Can’t wait to get there!

    @seltzer_lover sorry to hear about your stall. I eat most if not all of my exercise calories back and have still been losing pretty steadily.

    BTW there is a new August thread as ravenstcloud posted above. It is in Community under Motivation and Support.
