Count me in. I weight 194.0lb this morning. I hope to lose 7lb although that is a bit ambitious as I haven’t lost much in the last month. I have 10 weeks so let’s see what I can manage.

[Manxy64]

I'm in too. Lost my way for a few weeks but if I aim for a pound a week that would be 10lbs by the end of August and would take me to 14 stones.

[Chelseyw101]

Good morning all! I've stayed the same this week! Does anyone find they do the same amount of exercise and eat the same but dont lose the weight some weeks, last week I had an 8lb loss now nothing this week

 

[Larissa]

Morning @Chelseyw101 yeah, it's quite normal. 8lb is a HUGE loss and a shock to your body. A STS is probably your body catching up! Well done

 

[Chelseyw101]

That would make sense! Thank you

 

[Jié Xī]

I agree with Larissa. 8 pounds is amazing and yea, I've found my body doesn't lose on my weekly weigh-in timetable, lol. Sometimes I'll go all month with nothing, and then I'll see a 2-4 pound loss. I've had to readjust my thinking and accept that my body is losing it on a more monthly basis. It may help to get one of those tickers so you can see the downward trend.

 

[Jié Xī]

So, I did lose (1.4), but for the past month or so I tend to see my lowest weight mid-afternoon. So I will officially update my stats then just in case I actually hit the 2 lb mark.

UPDATE: 1.8. So, only need to lose 2.7 in two weeks to dye my hair read for the combo-birthday party (me, hubby, both kids, and FIL).

Well done it is a great lost.
I am the same and staying the same for ages and then lose 1/2 lb but the slower you lose, the longer you can maintain. I am sure you get there for birthday party.

 

[Srrs21]

A gain of 0.6lb for me this week. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I keep picking and picking. And my exercise had slowed down a lot. I have aching hips and knees when I walk so I haven’t been keeping at it. I am hoping something will click with me this week.
I now have 7.6lb to get to my goal
Well done on all your losses and hopefully I will joint you all next week.

I'm going to consider this week a STS. I ate slightly more than usual, and I do mean slightly, and yet my weight has shot up almost 4 pounds and stayed there all week. So not sure if I'm retaining water, or what, but if lose 2 this coming week (based on last week's) I will know that I didn't actually lose 6 in one week. Hope that makes sense.

I also only worked out once, but I'm now deadlifting 100 pounds so that makes me quite happy and feeling very steampunk-warriorish.

I know exactly what you mean, I gained 2 lbs and i don't know the reason (I have gone through my diary and nothing has changed - normally I have a day off but don't go overboard by that much). One day, I went out when it was very hot and forgot to take water with me and I wonder if I get dehydrated and my body is retaining water. I weighed myself this morning and I am down by 1 lb so hopefully by Thursday, I lose it all and some.
