Thanks @joans1976 for starting us off for August!
I'm Christie, an Aussie, mum to the BEST three year old in the world (I am not even biased). I absolutely need to get serious about my weight and stop "treating myself". I had lost 15kg from my initial starting weight, but then started working from home and became less active through the day as a result. I'm finding it hard to get my rhythm back even though I'm back to working on site now. I've gained back too much of that 15kg loss. I plan to go back to basics because I KNOW it works for me!
Initial Starting Weight: 138.3kg (304.9lbs)

Aug 1st 210 lbs - Weighed, Tracked, Under Calories, Elliptical 45 mins. Hello August! Weight loss is getting a little more challenging. I am focusing on mostly on being 5 out of 7 days under calories.5 -
I'd like to lose 5 lbs. this month. I just started MFP two weeks ago and have lost 3 lbs. My starting weight was 158. I'm currently at 155 and would like to see 150 by the end of this month. I have two mini vacations coming up this month and I know those will be extra challenging but I intend to enjoy myself and still stay within my goals (except for weighing in on the days I'll be away...the scale will not be in my suitcase!)
Steps: Walk 11,000 steps/day
Water: Drink 64oz. minimum/day
Scale: Weigh in daily
Exercise: 60 minutes/day with one "rest" day/week
Food: Track meals every day

I’ve got my calories and logging under control, my macros somewhat under control, my water intake under control. Now, I want to lower my sodium intake and up my daily step goal! I have a doctors appointment at the end of the month and would like some good news….I know I have a long way to go but I have to get there some time.

It's actually my cousin's house so I know it a bit but hubby has only ever been there a couple of times! Bit exciting, but also stressful to be going into so much debt. The bank wouldn't factor in my hubby's income either because his business is too new (must be running for more than 18 months, apparently) so it's good that we managed to get the pre-approval considering it only had my income, but all the expenses!

On the 30th of July, I weighed myself and found I was at a lifetime high - 142.7 kg (314.59 pounds)
So I'm back using MyFitnessPal again.
My long-term goal has always been to get down to double digits - 99kg (218.2 pounds) but that's a crazy dream.
I think a realistic shorter-term goal is to reach 130 kg (286.6 pounds)
My goals during august are to:
* Measure progress regularly (weight and waist circumference)
* Log food and meet daily food goals each day
* Be more deliberate about exercise, especially little exercises during the work day (I sit at a desk all day)
Seeing some progress already.
30 / 7: 142.7 kg
01 / 8: 142.2 kg
02 / 8: 141.1 kg

Struggling a bit with a knee injury on one leg and a foot injury on the other. Sometimes I'm just hobbling around! Made some more progress on the home-buying process, closing out a credit card that I didn't know existed so it disappears from my credit report and had the bank's valuer visit our current house so we know how much collateral we have. We are intending to keep this house and rent it out once we move. He couldn't give us the exact number or even a proper ballpark but was able to reassure us that it will be within a particular range - the lower end of that range is still enough for what we need so that has been a relief! Spent half the evening working from home as I left work a little early to meet the valuer and needed to catch up on some work - didn't mean to spend as long as I did, but got the report done that I needed to.

08/01-201.2-(Trend Weight 201.4)- Gradually dropping on the scale over the past few days. Pleased to see that. Getting ready to leave for surgery. I’ll be back soon!
08/02-202.0-(Trend Weight 201.4)- I weighed at hospital on different scale this morning. I’m okay post-surgery. They changed the surgery up a bit. Some for good reasons, some for not-so-good but they promise I will be able to breathe much better soon. No improvement yet and I really thought the better breathing would be immediate. Taking it easy and following Drs orders. Lots of changes in the meds.

I’ve got my calories and logging under control, my macros somewhat under control, my water intake under control. Now, I want to lower my sodium intake and up my daily step goal! I have a doctors appointment at the end of the month and would like some good news….I know I have a long way to go but I have to get there some time.

**************************************ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME************************************
COLOR CODE: Fuchsia is a Happy Weight Loss for me. Blue is a sad weight gain. Black is no change.
08/01-201.2-(Trend Weight 201.4)-
08/02-202.0-(Trend Weight 201.4)- I weighed at hospital on different scale this morning. I’m okay post-surgery. They changed the surgery up a bit. Some for good reasons, some for not-so-good but they promise I will be able to breathe much better soon. No improvement yet and I really thought the better breathing would be immediate. Taking it easy and following Drs orders. Lots of changes in the meds.
08/03-201.6-(Trend Weight 201.4)- The heart surgeon I met for the first time when I was in the OR. He said that he will not triple stent me, if it becomes 100% necessary, he will do a by-pass but he wasn’t in the mood to crack open any ribs that day. Yikes! He thought that two of the blockages could be managed with new meds for now but one was further blocked than the CTA test indicated. It was 76% blocked instead of 50%. So he stented that one, changed my cholesterol meds to 80 mg instead of 10 mg. Added the blood thinner recommended for those specifically with stents, added another heavy-duty blood pressure med to go with my other and gave me an emergency script for nitro just in case. He said my breathing on exertion should improve but it’s still rough breathing so far. Gotta heal up I guess. No exercise for a week and then light moderate like walking or bike. Breathing was worse yesterday instead of better but so far today, I feel a little improvement. Glad it’s over. Thanks again to all of you for the well wishes, personal IM’s and hugs. You are all the best friends a girl could ever ask for!
