Weight-Loss August Goal Challenge

[Healthyhabit]

I'm struggling with the goals I laid out for this month. I'm doing alright with going to the gym and I think I'll be losing at least 1lb a week... But I can't seem to keep track of everything I eat.
I've been using fitday, but sometimes its just such a pain to put all the foods in. I don't often eat pre-packaged foods with labels so it makes it a little harder.
I'm still 181 as of this morning, so thats good.
I need to refocus, already... and its only the 9th.

August 21 and I'm still 181.
I'm glad its not going up, but the number isn't budging at all.

I'm not giving up. I won't. I just have to work harder...

I am new to this entire forum, so I am joined the "August Goals" thing quite late. But.. for the last week of August, my goal is to lose 2 lbs and get a new scale! The one I have is six pounds lighter than the one at the Dr's office. You can imagine my devastation!

I hope everyone is having a healthy, happy day!

That is a determination!! Don't give up!! It will start falling off!! I had a 3 weeks plateau also and boy it was hard, but I broke through it and started losing again!! You will be there!!!

Thanks Hajni!
I'm trying to power through this plateau. I won't give up!
When you finally broke yours, did weight start coming off at the regular rate again?

HI Sunny,

When I finally broke my plateau, the weight started coming off faster then before!!! I was losing with an average of 0.6 lb/week, now I am losing an average of 1.7 lb/week. I do have to admit I am a lot more focused now then I was before, so that could be just the why it is faster now.
With the calorie deficit you are going with right now, You must be losing!! You have to...
When is your official weigh in day?
