Welcome to the monthly challenge. June is here and time to start working on those summer activities. The Summer Challenge is a fun way to keep track of your monthly weight loss while gaining and giving support to other bandster's.

Copy and post the template below and fill in the information that you are comfortable sharing on Friday June 1st the come back every Tuesday on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 30th and post your updated weight. I will keep track of the weights and try, and make a better effort at it than last month, to get a table listing everyone's results on the following weekend.

Good luck to everyone and remember this isn't a contest it's a challenge and you are a winner no matter how much you loose.

The first three items are required all others are recommended, but the last one is the most fun. If you are new to our monthly challenger please leave a short introduction.

Nice to see the scale move again!! 192 this morning. Thats down 2 pounds for the week, Only 3 more for the month to go....might be tight. But I'll give it a shot.

321.8 last week, 319.4 today. I think I'll take a 2.4 lbs weight loss! And I've already reached my June goal! So in celebration of this event I will add that I want to loose one more pound by next Friday!

Weighing in today at 223, down 2.5 lbs and goal achieved!!

Last weigh in: 501.6 lbs

Today's weigh in: 494 lbs!!

Down 6 lbs!!!

And surpassed goal!!!

Checking in @ 215 = up one lb but not unhappy at all. DH and I celebrated our anniversary and Mothers day/Father's Day in Philadelphia (for 3 days) compliments of our wonderful daughter and son-in-law. Our son, daughter-in-law & grand daughter joined us for dinner one night so we had the whole family together.

NSV - I was able to walk a huge amount for those 3 days, using public transportation so I was on my feet a lot. This past Thursday was my 1 year bandiversary and I can promise you, a year ago this was not possible. I am 70 lbs lighter and my life only gets better and better!

Checking in 220.6.
