Slow and steady but hoping now that I am doing Diva's 30 day challenge that I may lose a bit more than my 2 to 3 lbs per week. Keeping my hopes up!

I forgot to post last week so it looks like I had a really big loss, which I didnt. But I am still losing just a little slower than before. I do not think I will make the labour day challenge but I am going to get as close as I can.

SO CLOSE!

ORIGINAL POST

I wasn't sure I was going to make this goal. I have let some bad habits sneak back in and felt like the scale was moving rather slowly since July 4th. I got a tattoo last week on my wrist, the japanese symbol for believe. To help me remember when I reach for something I don't need, that I can do this! This was a great week with 4.8 lb loss!!! I'm so close to onederland I can smell it!!! I believe in my sleeve and I believe in myself!!!

Whoot! I am NORMAL today!!

Oh happy day!!!!

Congratulations!!! I have done the calculations on what it would take to move me into that category too and that seems so far away right now. If only I was taller. LOL

It sure feels good to see these numbers compared to when I started.

Hi all,

I lost 2.2 lbs. this week. I missed my mini-goal of getting to 180 by August 17th, but I'm well on my way to hitting my Labor Day goal, and if all goes well this week, I will be at 180 1 week late. My calories have been acceptable this week, but protein is low. I've been eating out a lot and missing a few meals here and there.
