Ok so hormonal issues really messed me up the last two days. So the scale shot up. Very glad I didn’t go crazy with food and booze out of misery.

I am loving this group, it’s helping to see everyone’s ups and downs. I don’t feel so alone.

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: 97.1kg
July 2nd: 96.5kg
July 3rd: 96.1
July 4th: 95.7
July 5th: 95.6
July 6th: 95.8

@canadamarie I'm also appreciating posting and reading your messages.

Yesterday I had very little control about what I ate. However, I did control my portions. We got this!

July 1 - 212lbs
July 5 - 209lbs
July 6 - 208.4

Goal for this month
lose 10lbs.

New plan to start tomorrow… eat more salad

Hi everyone this is my first day here in this thread ( member of MFP since January) and I'm needing some more reinforcement of goals.
I haven't weighed myself today but will report in tomorrow.
My starting weight in January was 100 kg and my goal weight is 76 kg.
My mini goal for this week is to keep away from sugary snacks and do more vigorous walking.
One significant motivating factor is that I'll be attending a wedding in 6 months time and I want to wear a lovely new dress. I'm visualising in my head the shopping experience I'll have if I stay the weight I am. It definitely doesn't appeal.

Female – wrong side of 65; wrong side of average height!

Previous Months:-
UGW - 53kg

Mini Goals June:
1. Post here every day for the rest of the month.
2. Lose 0.5kg in weight (June end weight was 54.2kg, so goal is 53.7kg)
3. Lose 1cm from my waist (will measure at the end of the month)

1 July – 54.5kg
2 July – 54.2kg
3 July – 54.0kg
4 July – 53.8kg
5 July – 53.7kg
6 July – 53.6kg
7 July – 53.5kg

Looks like the glass of water with every glass of wine approach is working for me although I slept in today so it was a late weigh-in. Weights yesterday was short session but I am ridiculously tired this morning.

@HappyDonkey75 - I share your frustration at weekends away where there's very little option for good food choices. If those 2lbs have crept back on then it's very unlikely to be fat and much more likely to be water retention due to salt. And 12 hours in a car? I find 4 hours more than enough, can't begin to imagine 12 especially just for a weekend! Hope you have a good journey back and the scales are kind to you Monday morning.

Looking good, keep it going!

Well the first week is done.
The good part was
No beer
No pop
No McDonalds
No sweet smoothies
No chips
No ice cream
No coffee and Tim bits

My weigh in time is at the end of the day.

I’m determined still to lose 10 pounds by the end of this month.
Keep it going 👍

Forgot to post this morning. It's been a really difficult day because I ate most of my calories in stupid junk food. I'm expecting my liquid retention to be high after eating so much sodium..

I tried my black jeans on yesterday, they closed! but extremely tight.. We had a barbecue, and I grilled some veggies for the weekend.

Hey there
We're pretty close in our starting weight and our goals.
My Starting weight ..100 kgs
My Goal weight............76kg

Your progress has inspired me. I'd slightly fallen off the wagon , so to speak, but I'll weigh tomorrow and get back in the game.

Late to the party but I still came.


Starting weight 108 March, 20204
June ending weight: probably around 107
Todays weight, July 08 : no clue - I'm camping.

Goal weight for July 14th ish - 105.6


I went to visit home for the beginning of july. My mom had a heart attack the end of June - severe. June 28-today she has been in the hospital. Maybe.... MAAAAYBE today she will be transferred to a swing bed. I and my prince charming have been working 1/2 days remote. The Lord was good to us, he saved mom for us. She is recovering - although this is scarey for us kids /(me and my 2 older brothers).
Mom is 77. She had 2 stents put in the Right and Left arteries and will be fitted for a lifeVest today. They are getting close to having her meds figured out. They keep adjusting it, which one she is getting as well as what time she recieves it. I don't see how she will get out today..... I live 13hours away normally - except this week since I am nearby. *thanks in advance for prayer support*

Then, just a day later, the Lord took my 58yr old sister in law to heaven. She had Muscular distrophy, was bed ridden and had a pace maker. It was NOT expected at all. But the lord took her from this world and now, I try to be a support for my brother who is trying to figure out how to do this chapter of his life. He is 58 as well, maybe 57... 59... somewhere in there.

I have been eating right and working out. I've decided that over indulging will make me feel like poop and, quite honestly the days feel poopy enough without me feeling that way. So I decided to eat healthy and clean and, I am enjoying that so much. Indeed it does NOT feel like punishment or deprivation. It feels good.

I hope you all are doing well.

Hey, that's right! Good for you! Hope you find a beautiful dress for the wedding.

I braved the scales ... 96.1 kg
I'm really glad that I have jumped back into the swing of things, tracking , weighing , exercising.
My mini goal for July is to lose 2 kgs.
Ultimate goal weight is 76 kgs.
