Thanks for doing this for all of us.  See you next month!!  I am going to try doing better.  I got my Wii Fit and I love it----just got it last week so with the Wii Sports and walking, lots of water and eating properly----I should do just fine.  The support from the groups is great.  Thanks and Happy Weight Loss and Healthly Living to everyone!!

Mischiefdm - You still lost overall this month so you're still doing well in my books!
Congrats.
Did the medical procedure go well?

{snip}

Thanks for the cheers. Considering that I'd been on a plateau for 7 months, I should be jumping with joy just to lose what I did!

Yes, the procedure went well; both my neck and back responded to epidural injections for ruptured discs.

Thank you so much for your motivational comments that really spike the challenge.  See you in September and good luck losing!

Orangeloft - Lol oh, that sounds very cute!
I hope you enjoy September and you have lots of fun with your new Wii Fit! It sounds cool.

Mischiefdm - Good to hear it!

Bevroche - Great job!

Hi Restless,

Are we having one for September?  I had to sit August out, but I'm back in the saddle again and can't wait to start kicking those pounds to the curb!

What are our weigh-in dates?

Please let me know!!

Thanks,

Yari

145!!  I made it, just!!!

Congrats to everyone!

I made it to 155, which at least it is in the right direction. I was sick the whole last week and did not get to the track. But I thought my lack of eating would balance it out. Oh well. On to next month.

Thanks for doing this challenge. It is great to have a place to be accountable to.
