Only a small loss this week, but that's not much of a surprise.  It's still in the right direction, so I'm ok with that.  I did not yet go back and get a new pass for the gym.  And I wasn't as conscious about drinking a lot of water while I was eating, which I'm sure helped contribute to how much I ate at a time.

One more week (and some change) til the end of the year. 2.6 pounds to go to make it to 205 by that original target date. I gotta have a week more like week 11 and not this past week, but it's doable.

One of the hardest things about losing weight is keeping the self-motivation to keep it up. I am very certain that I would have slipped more if I hadn't been doing these weekly updates. Even after I do get to my target weight, I think it's going to be very important to do bi-monthly, or at the very least, monthly updates, to avoid rebounding to where I was (or more). If that's what I gotta do, then that's what I gotta do, and my life will be better for it.
