Supposed to fill on July 2, but sooner if my non-liquid diet doesn't fill me up.

I'm going to take a slightly different route because my bathroom scale & the drs scale seem to be more than a few pounds apart.
So, my goal is to be able to wear the XL work shirt that was ordered for me to wear in the fall. I start back the day after Labor Day so its perfect. |

Ok, so during this challenge I'm going to check in once a week on Mondays. I had a good week this week, I've trying to get more exercise in and I'm starting to do some running with my normal walks.

| I get my first fill tomorow and am so glad! I am sick of trying not to gain weight, much less loose. I have no restriction right now so I hope tomorow will help. I am trying not to get my hopes up to much because I know it takes several fills for some people. Hope everyone is doing well!
