    I’ll be back to update this post.

    STARTING WEIGHT AND DATE WITH MFP(MY FITNESS PAL): 160.2 2/20/2011 — been on & off since then. I’m back to being serious about getting healthier. UGW: 98 lbs (give or take & this goal is subject to change due to age, etc) keep in mind my height is 4’8” (have shrunk 3 inches over the last 15 years). Age: 62
    YOUR CHALLENGE STARTING WEIGHT FOR THIS CHALLENGE beginning July 1: 153.6
    YOUR CHALLENGE WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: 146.2 (adjusted since I’ve been messing up)

    July 8: 152.6
    July 15: 154.8
    July 22: 153.8
    July 29: 153.6

    July Goal: 149
    July Actual: 153.6
    July Loss: 0, but at least I didn’t gain. At one point during July, I weighed 151.8 but it wasn’t in the date that counted that week. Oh well. Excited to start August, though. I feel weight loss coming on! Lol
