Weigh-in Week 11

The Numbers

Starting Weight: 216.8
Weight Last Week: 210.6
Weight This Week: 208.0
Loss This Week: 2.6
Total Weight Loss: 9.0
Pounds Still to Go: 23.0
Trendline Estimate: 207.5



208.  Finally!  Finally back under 210.  It's been five weeks.  Finally caught up to where I used to be.  This has been slow going, but I think using the graph has helped a lot this time.  Seeing that it's still on a downward trend has been comforting.  Cause really... Five weeks to catch up to where I used to be?  That would have been ridiculous the first time I lost weight.  I was constantly losing 2.5 pounds a week on average.  10 pounds a month.  My goals were much higher last time, and less realistic, but I still managed it. 

This time I'm going much slower, but I'm trying to figure out a way that will be easy to transition between weight loss and weight maintenance.  Trying to figure out a way where I see progress that doesn't feel like I'm punishing myself.

And speaking of 2.5 pounds a week, I almost lost that much this week, and I didn't go to the gym.  It was just strict calorie counting.  I gotta say while it's doable... imagining doing this for three months is crazy.  I was hoping that as I organized my room some more that my gym pass would have popped up, but I haven't found it.  So looks like I'll just go request another.  But as it is, looks like I have a good chance of at least making my 205 adjusted goal by the end of the year.
