    Hey all! I just found this group and would love to join, even though I'm super late! On August 1 I'll be seeing my family for the first time in over a year as I've been living overseas and I want to look good!

    I'm getting close to my goal now so I'm not sure 7 lbs is totally doable, but I'll put in the effort and hopefully be somewhere good by the end of the month :bigsmile: Fortunately, at 5'1'' every pound counts big.

    July 1: 117
    July 8: 115.5
    July 15: (goal, 114.5)
    July 22: (goal 113.5)
    July 29: (goal 112.5)
    End weight!: (goal 112)

    Ok, don't know what's happened there (I'm not intending to lose faster than 2 lbs a week - am in fact set up to lose 1 lb per week), will take it easy next week and see how it goes.

    Well, no complaints this week, right on target. I ate right around what I hoped all days but 1. And honestly, chowing down 12 different funky ice cream flavors (salted egg yolk - chocolate, cranberry and pop rocks!?) with friends was worth messing up that last day!

    Hopefully I'll stay on target this week too! Good luck all :flowerforyou:
