    My name is Tina, Height: 5'6" Age: 54
    MFP starting weight: 149.2 (3/30/21)
    July results: 1 pound loss
    August starting weight: 134.8
    August goal weight: 130
    Ultimate goal: 128

    Goals for this month are to get back into regular exercising, better sleep habits and more protein.

    8/01 - DNW out of town, no scale
    8/02 - 134.8 Up almost 2 pounds from end of July. A weekend of no control. I was hungry constantly and didn't choose wisely. Time to kick it into gear and meet my goals this month.
    8/03 - 134.2
    8/04 - 134.2 Surprised by this. Was quite a bit over in calories yesterday. Hoping it doesn't show up tomorrow.
    8/05 - 134.0
    8/06 - 133.4
    8/07 - 135.4 Way over in calories. Serves me right

    Week 1: +.6

    8/08 - DNW
    8/09 - 135.4 Glad it didn't go higher. Tried hard to stay focused after Saturdays weigh in.
    8/10 - 134.8
    8/11 - 136.0 Yesterday was a hungry all day kind of day. I just could not get my belly satisfied. I think I ate half a watermelon last night after eating way too much at dinner:(
    8/12 - 135.6 not much but still in the right direction. Shouldn't have had ice cream after dinner :#
    8/13 - 135.4 Did not do well at all this week. Really need to have a good weekend.

    August SW : 176
    August GW : 172

    8/1 : 176 : Lost 5 pounds in July.
    8/4 : 176 : Time to make an effort to lose. Changing eating plan.
    8/5 : 176 : Well I only started yesterday, can’t expect changes so soon. (yes I can!)
    8/6 : 176 : Dang - nothing yet - but I’ll give it one more day.
    8/8 : 175 : I’m down a pound. I’ll take it.
    8/9 : 174 : Yay ! 2 pounds down so far for August.
    8/11: 174 : I’ve decided not to weigh myself until Monday. I’m too obsessed with weighing everyday. I’d like to try to break that psychological need.
    8/13 : 174 : I ditched my decision about waiting to weigh yesterday. I realized it’s important for me to monitor things.

    8/2 - 192.0 yikes! ugly sodium weight and a weekend of looser choices. Planning a run today.

    Hi all
    I am Dawn, 60, 5'2"
    I gained a bit of weight in both June and July, so my aim is to get that off and beyond.
    Before that I averaged a 1 pound weight loss each month throughout this journey.
    MFP start weight October 2018: 191
    UGW 112-ish

    Best of luck to everyone, and big thanks to @nikkit321 for providing this space to us and keeping us going.

    Sunday 8/01 - 132.9
    8/02 - 133.3
    8/03 - 133.3
    8/04 - 132.9 - Back to this month's start weight, now to hit last month's start weight of 131.8
    8/05 - 132.8
    8/06 - 134.2 - Up at 4am drinking water after going to sleep at 1am. Posting my weight anyway, tomorrow I hope will look better.
    8/07 - 134.3 - Lots of activity yesterday, maybe it will look favourable on the scale in a few days.
    8/08 - 136.0 - Wow, it took me 7 days to put back on what took 7 months to lose. Cruel. Hopeful that going back to day shifts this coming week will help.
    8/09 - 135.5 - Got to get this off
    8/10 - 132.6 - ?? - I'll take it.
    8/11 - 131.7 - I have still been eating late, because of added evening shifts into the mix. Today I finish at 3 and then get days off : - ) My huge activity day is now showing on the scale. Feeling relieved but will try not to get too comfortable lol. Planning some indulgences on my days off.
    8/12 - 132.9 - Back to my start weight. I am okay with that.
    8/13 - 134.0 - Kind of expected, I had a couple of indulgent days. I did not exceed my calorie goal, but the choices were not the healthiest

    @deepwoodslady - That is a lot to absorb in one day of medical follow up! I'm glad that you were able to get back down there to get the mammogram & skin biopsy and also make the arrangements for the liver scan and CT scan.
    Good luck with your discoveries and results. Thinking of you daily in my thoughts & prayers.

    @txcatmom3
    I hope you recover soon and that your symptoms are not too horrible. I had it this past winter. I just had a bad headache for about 5 days and loss of appetite. Not a fun way to lose weight, but congratulations on your loss.
