Goal for August is to lose 4 pounds. I made it losing 4.5 pounds. Yeah!!!!

aww agi, I could easily be 142 tomorrow, you're still my twin! :p You'll beat me this month for SURE.

You also did something I forgot to do, which I am now quite ashamed of - send out a big THANK YOU to Pixyz. Pixyz, your work on this challenge has been amazing, and for sure it wouldn't have been so successful without you! Thanks so much for all your hard work, you've been great. :) :) :)

8/31:  145 !

This is amazing!  I actually did it!  I'm in the healthy BMI section!  Woo hoo!  I lost a total of 7.5 lbs this month.  I'm so excited.  Last month I lost 5.5.  I'm hoping to lose another 5.5 in September.  It's hard to imagine being in the 130s.  I'm trying to remember the last time I was in the 130s.  I can't really.  Must of been back in 2003.

I'm still waiting on about 30 weigh-ins to finish out our August challenge.  I know a few of those people are gone because they havent posted in a few weeks, but I'm holding out for the rest of you.
We now have two separate maps.  If you click on the map link in this thread it will take you to the map of just us.  If you click the map link in the September thread, you'll see all of us - plus the new folks. 

What every you post today for your final weight - that will be your starting weight for the September challenge.  The link to that challenge is above in my post.  Be sure to check out the map.  It's grown quite a bit with the new folks.  Japan, Jamaica, Lithuania, ... even Minnesota! 

When majority of you have posted your final weigh in for August, I'll post a wrap-up thread with congratulations and the total amount of weight we've lost as a team.  Did we make it to 200lbs?  I don't know....possibly....

Go Team!

8/10: 169.1
8/17: 170.0
8/24: 167.9
8/31: 167.0

Past week's loss: 0.9
Total loss for August: 2.1

Pixyz - CONGRATULATIONS on losing 7.5 lbs for August!!!  I'm absolutely envious, but thrilled that you were able to lose successfully =)  Congrats again!

Not much of a total loss here, but I'll take what I can, even if it's a marginal loss, compared with the majority on this thread =)  See everyone over at the September Map Weight Loss Challenge and . . . .

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE! ! !
136 today so i 6 pound total loss...I was 135 yesterday, but ttotm is making me fluctuate like crazy!  Great fun on this challange though, next month I will get more off!
Hi Everyone,

I did not lose any wt. this week, but I guess I will get over it. I tried to kick the scale and make it go down, but no luck!!!!!!

So, my wt today is 163.

My goal for August was 6 lbs ----so so so close at 5.6 lost.

My new goal for Sept will be 5 lbs----because my birthday is in Sept and I want to eat some cake!!!!!!

Congrats to all of us----we rock---

Thanks Pixyz for all your hard work and encouragement, congrats on a healthy BMI

4 away from my goal- last two weeks have been pretty rediculous.  Im lucky I didn't gain!  Next month my goal will be to lose 8lbs.
So sorry for the last post, 174 today so I lost 1 pound from last week. So my total for the month of August is 4.5 lbs lost. I didn't meet my goal, but I'm not where I started either. Pixyz, congratulations and thank you for an awesome job and so much encouragement. See you on the September challenge.
Sorry this is late.

    Note:  I have been bingeing since Saturday morning and feel awful. I had been doing so well and now I screwed up AGAIN.  Will probably have a big, fat gain this coming Friday but I am not giving up.

    Guys, I totally suck at life right now. lol. Seriously, I swear I must have hit a plateau. I was doing so great in May, June, and July I lost 20 lbs. Then August came.... Augh!!! The positive side to this little rant is that my clothes are fitting better (Im down another pants size) and I am getting alot of positive feedback from my friends and coworker lately telling me I look great.

    So here are my depressing stats!!!

    8/31: 187
    9/7:   188

    Im switching up my excercise routine so hopefully I will see better results next week.
