Morning all! How is it July!

Welcome to the July lose 7lbs thread. All are welcome to join whether you are a regular, lurker, oldie, newbie, or a proper old timer like me 😂

All we ask for is the amazing support and positivity that I've seen in every single one of these threads so far. Last months thread is here June thread - lose 7lbs/3kg per month http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/weightlosss_chat/3925539-June-thread-lose-7lbs-3kg-per-month

Stats for me are:
Start weight (Dec 2018) 25 st 2lbs
Current weight: 17st 6lbs
Loss for June : 3lbs (boo 😳)
Total loss so far: 7st 10lbs

Would love to get into the 16s this month! I'm following WW green plan, I eat mainly plant based with a little dairy/cheese/gin thrown in. My aim this month is more plants and less gin 😂

Plan for today is OMAD - grapefruit segments to snack on throughout the morning and then a pea and mint risotto for dinner with side salad.

Have a fabulous 1st July everyone!

Morning all

Start of July weight : 10 stone 12.5
Current weight: 10 stone 3.5

Total July loss - 9lbs.

Extremely happy with that! My July goal was to get under 10 6.5 as that would put me in healthy BMI so I've definitely achieved that.

Goal for August will be 7lbs and to get as close to 9.7 as I can. I think from tomorrow I might check what my body fat % is and have reducing that as a target as well.

Well done whatalearningcurve that’s fantastic!!

My End of month stats:

Start of month: 81.1 kg

End of month: 77.7 kg

Total lost: 3.4 kg or 7.5 lb
My aim for next month is to lose a similar amount, which will leave me quite close to my goal weight. I also want to reduce my body fat percentage below 30.

wrensandrobins · 31/07/2020 09:50

My end of month stats:

Started at 179
Finished at 170.7

So 8.5 off this month for me!

peanutbutterdog · 31/07/2020 11:21

Start of July - 12st 12lbs
End of July - 12st 5lbs
July loss - 7lbs
Dress size - 14
Yippee!!
Aim for August 11st anything

Well done to all who managed to stay focused or to lose this month, some brilliant achievements being recorded here.

Wow, some fantastic losses here, so impressed. I'll have to post mine tomorrow, had an early delivery today and forgot to weigh in. I know it won't be as good as the ones already recorded.

MirandaWest · 31/07/2020 14:39

Start of July 77.6kg

End of July (29th) 72.6kg

5kg lost or 11lb.

Want to keep going down in August although as I only started on 24th June probably will be slower. Would be happy with another 3kg

NerrSnerr · 31/07/2020 14:50

Hi all. I am away so don't have any end of month stats but I think it's probably a stay the same. I will post my August start weight on Monday when I am back on it!! (Again). I have never hit the 7lb loss in a month. Maybe August will be the one!

Well done to everyone who has lost. Onwards and downwards.

SultanasofPing · 31/07/2020 15:02

Well done everyone - really motivating keeping up with your journeys and finally (I hope) I'm realising a small gain or a bad day does not mean my diet is over!!
Start of July 13 st 8.5 lbs
Now 13st 4 lbs
4.5 off this month not too horrific - on to August - hoping to get below 13st and also to be merely overweight for the first time in forever (though it is my daughters birthday weekend as she turns 21 so I may write off this one with cake and cocktails)

MonicaBingaling · 31/07/2020 15:20

Start of July: 10st 4
End of July : 9st 11

So so so happy to be ending the month with this result! As many of you know, I plateau-ed very badly however seemed to of miraculously lost 2lbs these past couple of days which is mad!

I’m so thankful for this thread and the AMAZING support I’ve had as I was SO close to giving up!

Well done on all the losses!!!

GetTheStartyParted · 31/07/2020 18:26

Started July at 11st12 and ending it at 11st7 so 5lbs loss and I'm no longer obese Grin woohoo! I'll take that.

Well done people, some great losses.

We have had a great day at the beach, just what we needed.

cricketmum84 · 31/07/2020 18:36

Omg it is sooooo hot! Feeling thankful I have been off work today and been able to crack out my new sunloungers and a good book.

Weighed in this morning and back down to 17.3. Only a 3lb loss for the month (same as June) but I know where I've gone wrong. Bit of a blow out tonight with takeaway pizzas - no way am I putting the oven on - but I will defo pull it back. August is going to be my month!! 16s here I come!

Amazing losses for the month guys, I am so so proud and happy! You have smashed July :)

August thread coming up!
