Weight-Loss Last Full Month of Summer!!! August Weight Loss Challenge!

Weight-Loss
Hello, all. I just got back from vacation and have a lot of catching up to do. I left on the first, so I'll use that as my start and I got back today.

Aug 1: 206
Aug 10: 212

A horrendous start, but I'm going to really hit it hard now. My goal for this week is to get down to 206 by Friday. I'm hoping that it's mostly salt and water on me and not all the fat that I was eating this last week. :drool5:
 
August 1: 210.8 lbs
August 8 (11): 211.2

Little gain, but that its ok considering I've eaten nothing but crap for like a week. It's only gonna get worse with my move, but I'm gonna do my best to not totally wreck everything.

This could get interesting...
 
I know it's not Friday, yet, but I stepped on the scale this morning and it read 205.5. I'll take it. I'm trying to keep it clean this week, so hopefully it'll be a good weigh in tomorrow and another next Friday.
 
It's easy when it's all prety much water weight, but it's also easy to throw in the towel at that point, too.
 
Yet another Friday. Time for weigh-ins.

August 1: 135 lbs
August 8: 134.2 lbs (-0.8)
August 15: 135.4 lbs (+1.2)

I have been digging quite a hole lately and I am slightly stuck in it. I haven't got much time to workout but I'm trying. Eating is my biggest downfall. Yesterday I really improved. Went to Dairy Queen and dodged buying an ice cream. Still had a couple bites of everyone elses, but nowhere near the damage I would have done had I actually bought my own. Not to mention yesterday I was 136.4 so thats still a loss to me. Not happy but not totally bummed either.
 
OK, it's Friday. Let's see the numbers.

Aug 1: 206
Aug 10: 212
Aug 15: 205.5

Total for Aug is down .5 I'll be going down from here. Should be smooth sailing up till labor day weekend. Then we're hoping to take the kids to Hershey Park, chocolate town. That will be a tough one, but I should be in a good place by then, so it'll be ok.
 
Trying to borrow a camera to take some. Haven't bought my D80 yet. Maybe I should just pull the trigger and buy it. I might be losing my job in a couple weeks though, so I'm not sure I wanna spend the money.
 
Hmm, employee discount vs money for rent. Toughie. What about getting a point and shoot for the interm? I have a pocket Fuji that is great for when we don't want to bring out the D80.
 
Yeah, I considered that. I'd rather just put that money towards the D80 though. I plan on having it for years to come.
 
August 1: 190 lbs
August 8: 185 (-5) HELL YEAH! BACK IN BUSINESS BABY!!!
August 15:184 Still going down thats a plus, and its a solid 184.

But I ended up getting my monthly visitor today..so im assuming some of its water weight...Otherwise I need to kick my butt into gear
 
Okay I'm back from vacation... and truly surprised at the number on the scale... Lets just hope its not a fluke!

August 1: 147.0
August 8: 146.0 (-1.0)
August 17: 144.0 (-2.0)
 
I'm still alive. I won't have internet in my new apartment until some point this weekend. I also don't have a scale and can't really afford one at this point in time. I'm sure I've gained thanks to all the fast food throughout the whole moving ordeal.

Today was my first day at the school and needless to say it was OVERWHELMING! The people seem real nice though. It'll be an interesting first few months.

The people in this town drive like maniacs, so hopefully i'll live long enough to see things calm down.

I'll be here to cheer you all on, but can't really report any weights until i get a scale. Good job y'all! Keep up the good work!!
