Today: 308.3
down 11.2 lbs from my highest weight of 319.5 on November 25, 2016
down 10.7 lbs from my starting weight of 319 on July 1, 2014
average lost: 0.08 lbs/week
next milestone: 303 lbs (5% loss)
I made some fairly hefty dietary adjustments this past week that brought my daily points usage down to somewhere around 40, and kept up the regular workouts. However, I was also going extra-light in anticipation of a heavy holiday weekend, and I'm glad I did. Saturday, by itself, blew away all of my weekly points and several of my activity points as well. Not because I was pigging out on Christmas cookies (although I did have some), but because there were simply few-to-no low-point choices. My in-laws, whatever else their virtues or faults may be, are not healthy eaters. And that effect is multiplied by holiday get-togethers.
So honestly, as much as I would have liked to hit that 305-307 goal this week, just having made any progress under the circumstances is a victory. :)
Anyhow, moving on! I'm home now and going to be here for the foreseeable future, so it's back to healthy choices for me. ;) Success for this coming week will be 306, with a stretch goal of 304.
