July Challenge for Calorie Counters! - Page 2 - MiniMins.com

Carrie Me · 14th July, 2008

Hi all! Hope to lose 5lbs this month, I am holiday for the last week, but will try anyway. I was away last week and still managed to lose 1lb so am feeling great. I also use the diet plate, takes all the guessing out of portion control and is so easy to use, keep it up everybody.

EveryRose · 21st July, 2008

I hope to lose 7lb this month

Let's just say it's not going so well atm!

munkypooh · 25th July, 2008

Well after a totally crap start to the month (and actually gaining) I decided to raise my calorie intake as I was just constantly cheating and being rubbish (down to lack of will-power now I'm close to goal I think).
Since putting my calories up and eating more this week, I'VE LOST 4 LBS!!
I don't know how I've managed that....
I'd accepted that slow and steady was the only way I'd get the last bit off, and thought it'd take a month or two to lose 4lbs on my current calorie level....my body must've decided to give me a break!

No1yoyo- target 7lbs, lost 4lbs so far

I'm not worried if I don't lose any more this month, as I said, I think slow and steady is the only way I'll keep the last bit off for good, so I'm going to be patient! (for once!)

goldenaky · 25th July, 2008

I was grumpy because I thought I was not losing as fast as I wanted but now I see I have already lost one pound more than the goal I had for this challenge. Yipeee!

supersara2001 · 27th July, 2008

Um, i think I've actually gained 1lb over the entire month (havent weighed for 4 weeks)

Mixxi · 29th July, 2008

Los 7.5 lbs over this month yay!

0.5 lbs over my target

clarri · 29th July, 2008

Way to go Mixxi!!
Me, as of today, (although my weigh day is Friday) only lost 2lbs. Have had a struggling couple of weeks. On with August challenge.

So, what can I say, if I count today, which isnt my official weigh day, I have lost 5lbs this month. Happy enough because I had a few awful weeks!!!

Redlilocks · 10th August, 2008

I got to 11st 13 by 29th of July so made my goal of 5lb loss! Woohoo

supersara2001 · 10th August, 2008

I completely failed. I guess, still havent stepped on the scales. Although my wii fit is keeping track of my BMI for me - it hasn't changed drastically enough yet though to reach the July goal!

Congrats to those who did it!
