HI EVERYONE! I didn't update last week because I was mad. I gained a pound!!! GRRR...but I knew I was going to gain because my husband and I decided to cheat Friday night and we pigged out at Chili's. LOL! ANYWHO!
I weighed in today and here are the results...
Last weigh in: 171
Last Week weigh in: 172
Current weight (06/24/08): 168 lbs
I LOST 4 POUNDS!!! WOOHOO!
So the total for June is 6 pounds. I didn't reach my goal of 8 pounds this month but I was close and I'm satisfied with that. It just means I'll have to work extra hard next month to lose 8 pounds plus 2 extra for a total of 10 pounds in July. Wish me luck!

Fantastic!! You're doing so great! I wish I am as successful as you!
oooh I like the idea of giving yourself manageable targets like that, make it more achievable and know how hard to work each month! Its nice to have the odd day off too, as long as you know that the next day its back to the coal-face!

THANK YOU!
It's easier to set small goals for yourself every month instead of something ridiculous like 20 pounds in a month...that way if you meet or go over your goal it'll keep motivating you to lose more weight. If you set your goal too high and you don't reach it you're just setting yourself up for dissapointment...

I just wanted to say I know how hard it is to lose that baby weight, I was 115 lbs when I got pregnant and got up to 198 lbs when I delivered and it took me about 8 months to lose it and get down to 125 lbs and all I did was eat right and ran 4 times a week. (I joined 2 PE classes at a Community College to keep me motivated and so I would go). So hang in there and don't give up, it'll come off.
