My first update will be here on Sunday August 7th. Then I will also set my goal for Christmas.
I weigh in daily and report weekly averages in kilo's.
I started MFP in September 2021 with a first average of 95.0 kg
And this is what my updates will look like:
“And here's my weekly update. I do average of whole week (7 days):
Week 0 (August 7): xxx kg (xx kg to to achieve goal within yy weeks)
Week 1 (August 14): xxx kg (+/- xxx kg since last week, average loss xxx kg/week, xx kg to to achieve goal
This week was good/ bad because etc”1 -
My first update will be
Monday August 1st
All I want for Christmas is to 126lbs and losing 1lb per week should make that happen

@poodiebeer Great overview and preparation! Just so I understand how this works (only my second challenge here): can you actually edit this same post every week? So everybody has one post that updates every week? I saw other threads where everybody kept copying these lengthy posts each week, so it took al lot of time scrolling to keep track of everybody...0

Morning everyone, are we all organised for this challenge?
@poodiebeer i admire your confidence that you will lose ever week.
I have a heroic goal like that but will find it just a bit overwhelming to look at the first week I do all the right things and the scale doesn’t play ball.

SimplesimonEU unfortunately you can't edit a previous post so you have to repost each week. Lessenan, always hopeful for weekly loss, it's motivational for me to see what's possible down the road.1

Thanks, @poodiebeer for explaining! Shall we then just post past and current updates and not future empty lines? It will be easier to track each other and support if you don't have to scroll to pages of empty lines, especially in the first weeks!0 -
My August 1st weight is 98.1 kg. Now that's a start!
I'll be reporting weekly averages from now on, but at least I now know it will not be > 100 kg which I feared.
Good luck to you all!2 -
My Monday win before breakfast was 144 lb. 65.3 kg2

My starting weight (8/1/2022) is 182.6 lbs or 82.83 kg!
I don't have any idea what I intend on losing, just as much as realistically possible. I want to try to weigh in weekly, but I'm not going to be frustrated if I miss a week of weighing in. Consistency is key!2 -
And here we go, my first weekly update withstart weight. I do average of whole week (7 days)
Ik have set my goal on 89.9 kg by Christmas.
Week 0 (August 7): 97.9 kg (8.0 kg to to achieve goal within 20 weeks: 0.4 kg/week)
Not a bad start! Three weeks of Summer vacation did not make me gain a lot, I had a good first week, and the goal of 0.4 kg/week weight loss seems realistic as I did that before losing 4 kg. Looking forward to coming week 😀

8/1 (starting weight): 182.6 lbs/82.83 kg
8/8: 181.6 lbs/82.37 kg
change: -1 lb/0.46 kg
This isn't as much as I was hoping for, but that's alright. I'm glad that I'm losing, I just need to stick with it!2 -
My weekly update:
Goal: 89.9 kg by Chistmas
Week 0 (August 7): 97.9 kg (start weight)
Week 1 (August 14): 97.2 kg (lost 0.7 kg this first week; still 7.3 kg to go within 19 weeks: 0.38 kg/week)
That was a good first week. Losing 0.7 kg in a week is always nice. Did struggle a lot with late evening hungryness though, need to find more satifying diner to prevent that. And heat wave is making long outdoor excercizes hard, but wave will be over soon.1 -
8/1 (starting weight): 182.6 lbs/82.83 kg
8/8: 181.6 lbs/82.37 kg
8/15: 180.8 lbs/82.01 kg
change from last week: -0.8 lb/0.36 kg
total change: -1.8 lbs/0.82 kg
Again, this isn't as much as I was hoping for, but I'm really impressed, considering I am currently on my period and bloaty! I have dinner tonight with my grandparents, fingers crossed I can handle temptation!2 -

Week 2 (August 21): 96.9 kg (lost 0.3 kg this week; average 0.5 kg/week so far; still 7.0 kg to go within 18 weeks: 0.39 kg/week)
Not as much progress as I hoped this week, and not sure why because I stuck to meal plan quite OK. But: still on schedule for Christmas
. Will get in some extra exercise done today. 1
