    Original start weight: 293
    August start weight: 172.2
    August goal weight: 160-165 (maintenance range)

    Aug 1 - 172.2 (Back from vacation and feeling good. August is going to be a great month!)
    Aug 2 - 169.6 (Busy first day back to work but stayed positive. Ate well and focused on my step goal.)
    Aug 3 - 167.6 (Dentist after work and then I'll hopefully find time for a Peloton ride or another walk, or both!)
    Aug 4 - 166.2 (Have stress at work. Afterwards I will decompress with some kind of exercise. Last night I chose to do upper body strength as my exercise of choice and it felt great.)

    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)
    August Starting Weight: 131.9kg (290.8lbs)
    August Goal Weight: 129.9kg (286.4lbs)
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 64kg (141lbs)

    AUGUST GOALS (DAILY):
    👟 Walk 5000+ steps
    💦 Drink 2L+ plain water
    📔 Log all calories
    🐨 Social media <60 mins
    ⚖️ Weigh in daily

    DAILY LOG:
    August 1: ⚖️ 132.2kg 👟 5,500 steps 💦2L 📔 1,786 calories 🐨 28 mins
    August 2: ⚖️ 131.7kg 👟 6,121 steps 💦 2.5L 📔 1,940 calories 🐨 53 mins

    August 3: ⚖️ 131.5kg 👟 5,360 steps 💦 2.5L 📔 2,746 calories 🐨 54 mins | Another busy day at work (the end and beginning of the month is always busy for me as an accountant)! Barely got any steps in all day as I was just chained to the desk, but made sure I did some walking in place to hit my target before bed time. Went a little over on calorie goal but still tracked everything which is all I'm actually aiming for at the moment - had great deficits so far this week so one day at maintenance is not going to undo all that.

    August 4: ⚖️ 131.3kg 👟 5,384 steps 💦 2L 📔 2,973 calories 🐨 52 mins | My work colleagues held a morning tea for my birthday, which was nice. I did overindulge though! Everything tasted so nice and I felt a lot of peer pressure! Back to normal tomorrow. Feeling really exhausted and fatigued - this I think is still remnants of covid, maybe "long covid" though I hope not.

    @TwistedSassette Im not sure I will remember so Happy Birthday! I think it is fine you indulged, there will be reasons to indulge throughout life and you have to get used to it, right? It looks like you tracked too, which is hard to do when someone else makes the food! Overall a good day!
