    STARTING WEIGHT AND DATE WITH MFP(MY FITNESS PAL):154
    YOUR CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE:145
    YOUR CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL:140

    *I lost a bit of weight by changing my habits eating at restaurants. I only eat out if I am with others and just get one entrée, no sides.
    *I quit drinking cream/sugar after 2 cups of coffee..most days
    *I've been trying to eat breakfast most days, but haven't noticed any differences.
    *Also, I have been eating 2 bean or legume dishes per week and not noticed any difference in my weight. This has recently morphed into eating 1-2 tofu meals per week which I do think took off a pound or 2!

    JULY 1: 145
    JULY 5: 145
    *5 days into my "Dry July". I am pretty careful about sticking to recommended 1-2 per day and no more than 5 per week so it'll be interesting,for me, to see if I notice any differences!

    Trying to figure out what small changes I can make to drop these last 10 pounds without worrying over every calorie. I have my meals logged in advance every week, usually around 1500 calories per day. (I'm short 5'2). I try to stick to the plan, but not counting calories anymore.

    Wishing everyone the best with this challenge! 🌻

    Hi everyone,

    I got "sticker shock" when I stepped on the scale this morning! I was "good" until the 4th, but then: "Blame it on the barbecue!" (Plus, I had trouble "reining it in" on Friday and Saturday.) On the plus side. I had no alcoholic beverages at all.

    I will hold off reporting until tomorrow, Monday, July 8th. Hopefully, the scale will then show that I at least maintained, once I get rid of all the excess fluid and sodium. (I will report my stats regardless.)

    Enjoy your day and have a great week!
    💗 Carole

    Hi everyone! I’m 34 years old and 164 cm (5’ 4,5”). I have a very sedentary life, since I am a PhD researcher. I work mostly from home. Sometimes I go to the gym 2-3 times in a week, but sometimes I don’t go for weeks. I don’t have a routine. I have been sick for a couple of months, it keeps me away from the gym. I’m hoping to get back soon.

    July 8: 206.8 Well as odd as it sounds I am happy with this weight. I have been up all week and decided yesterday that I need to get back on track. My goal of losing weight before my knee surgery unfortunately is not going to happen. I really struggle with weight loss especially in the summer when there are lots of extra good things to eat. Total knee replacement is on July 17 and I am traveling this weekend again to see friends.

    Hi All,
    Can I join you for this summer?
    I'm a very busy mom of five; 5'2" tall. I started at about 160 lbs after my last baby 4 years ago, and reached my goal weight last February I think. I maintained until recently. Over the past couple months I've started slacking off and eating more, and I've steadily gained; and it will continue if I don't get back on track now. Some good accountability would really help for me to not get derailed, and to get me back to where I'd like to be. I'd like to see where I am at the end of September.

    STARTING WEIGHT AND DATE WITH MFP(MY FITNESS PAL): July 2020 at 160 lbs

    YOUR CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: 121.0 (My ultimate goal weight, I think. My original UGW was 124-125, but I was around 120-122 for a little while and it was nice. So I'll shoot for that. If it's just unrealistic, I'll bump it up a bit.)

    Thank you @jedaschultz
    I'm Chris - 74 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion...
    ...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.
    My husband and I are retired.
    I see my trainer for 60 mins three days a week and try to walk the other four days. The walking doesn't always work out.
