19 lbs!

I'm pretty sure the date I started was 7-8

Down 7 lbs

I had to look back when I started, and it was June 19th

Starting weight 146.8lbs

Current Weight 144.0 lbs

Lost 2.8lbs

I had dropped down to 140.6 lbs and stayed there for a few days, but whenever I am mid-cycle, I start to bounce around A LOT!! Was down at 142.8 yesterday, up to 144 this morning. So that is where I am right now! Hopefully it will keep going down.

Everyone is doing so amazing, congratulations!

Jun 11- 190.9

July 20- 181.6= -9.3 lbs!

Awesome!

I don't remember the date I started. I would have to go back to the 5:2 thread.

I think it was 7-10 but when I figure it out' date=' I'll fix it here.

Down 7 lbs[/quote']

Fabulous!

Restart last Monday, weighing weekly so will post stats then.

Okay, I'm actually having trouble figuring out my weight because I can't find my weights in the old thread and I didn't record my weight every day on MFP. I eventually started putting it in the notes daily and logging it every Sunday but didn't at first. I thought I was down eight pounds in four weeks but I think I'm down eight pounds in just under five weeks.

So best guess for me is that I started on 23 June and am down 8 pounds.

But what I'll put here now (so I can remember) is that I am currently 141 pounds and back into my maintenance window (albeit at the top end) and have six more pounds to goal.

OK, so this is a kinda rough idea... I think I started around the same time as Laura and FYE so...

Start date: 11 June 13

Start weight: 168

weight as of this morning 163 (offical weigh day is always a Saturday even though I do admit to weighing daily) is 163

so, that is a 5lb loss so far! Not to shoddy for the slowest loser in town...lol

coops! I do believe this is working for you!

FYE, I really hope so 'cos I am finding really easy to follow and stick with! Even if it comes off really slowly, as long as it comes off and I can see progress, I will be happy.

And, I have to say, it is working for you TOO! In fact, all of us are rocking this right now! Loves it!

Restart date 15 July 13

Weekly loss 2lb

Total loss 2lb

GW 163

I thought I was in my eighth week, but I guess I was mis-counting (I have a hell of a time tracking anything...!). So I started 10 June I believe, and I was around 72kg at the time. I'm still in the 71kg range, and have bounced all over the place (even saw a 69.something on one day), but I don't track it so I am not too sure. Let's say I've lost a kilo in seven weeks maybe. *shrug* But I like doing it, so I'm still not too fussed about the speed of losing -- and to be entirely fair, my life has been very caloric this summer, I hope the social stuff dies down for a bit at some point.

I really wish my weight would not bounce around so much.
