3. Lose 1cm from my waist (will measure at the end of the month)
1 July – 54.5kg
So an uptick to start the month but I did get the munchies again last night so not surprised and will take it on the chin. Today is a new day. Planning weights at home.
My goal for this month is a 0.5kg weight loss. It’s getting harder now to lose weight although the trajectory is down overall and I’m happy to lose at a slower rate if it means I can build muscle. Hoping the extra exercise will keep the waist loss on track though.
Thanks for the new thread @ManifestingToday, hope your weekend has gone well.

Hello, thank you for making this thread.
I've been tracking my meals for the past two weeks, after giving birth three months ago. Although I'm breastfeeding, I need to make some changes because I definitely don't feel good being the heaviest I've ever been. I just found the community today, and I hope posting my weight here daily will keep me accountable.
I'm committed to doing 10:14 intermitent fasting, to track my meals, and eating mindfully. This week I'll focus on listening to my body, and actually stop eating when I feel satisfied.
Ultimate goal: 73 kg
Medium term goal: Stop looking like I'm pregnant
Short term goal: Fit in my black jeans
Initial June 13th weight: 103 kg
July 1st weight: 97.1kg

Non weight Successes:

Scales back down today after another relatively static day working on my website. Weights plan was thwarted as one of them dropped off the bench onto the floor and broke. Hopefully glue will sort them out!

Interesting... I have gone two days with no dedicated workout and dropped.. so maybe that means I don't have to work out anymore???
I have been so muscle sore from my workouts maybe my body needed that little break. Back at it today.
yesterday was stupid stressful too so I am sure my cortisol was spiked alot of the day but I stayed within my calories.
@aurorabarajas1 - welcome and good for you on the fasting. that is intense. I considered trying IF again because when I have tried in the past was unsuccessful. Good luck
@canadamarie - your gain wasnt too terrible if you ate higher sodium. That would have been more like 3 lbs for me! I am curious about the trampoline for lymphatic drainage? is that a thing?
@SofaKween - sorry about the broken bench. Hopefully you got it sorted out
Nice to see some new folks out here . We are going to slay July!

Another sedentary day working on the website. I think that challenging my brain with this seemingly mammoth task must be burning lots of calories! Every problem solved leads to a new problem or task I realise I need to do and the list keeps getting longer. I now know why people pay someone to set up their websites. Anyway. Should be a gap in the rain this afternoon so have a walk planned.
@HappyDonkey75 - alas it's not the bench that broken, but one of my very expensive adjustable dumbell weights! Glue seems to have held the small plastic piece that broke off but I haven't tried them out yet.

Clothes are noticeably looser which is a great NSV. But I want to lose actual weight because I just feel so heavy all the time.0 -
@HappyDonkey75 yes it is! The body doesn’t have its own pump for lymphatic drainage so there are different ways to stimulate the lymphatic system to get rid of toxins and fluid build up. Trampoline is a good way to do that because it doubles as exercise that is gentle on the joints.

No idea what is going on with the scales. Has to be water weight fluctuation but so long as the long term trend is down, then it is what it is. Just wish there was better correlation between calorie intake, exercise and the number the scales throws out in the morning!

@kellyswimmer , @tmbg1 , @SofaKween , @HappyDonkey75 great to see you this month again! @aurorabarajas1 , @quolwy , @canadamarie -- welcome to the group, and good to see you posting!
I'll be back Monday. We had some family stuff that required visiting, and I've been very off plan. I've been working out when I can, but when with family, I've eaten my old patterns and I know it's not going to be pretty when I finally get on a scale. I also know that number will go down when I get back into the flow of things.
For those celebrating the 4th of July, I hope you had a happy and safe holiday.3 -

On a positive note, I think the glue may have fixed the broken weight. Fingers crossed.
