    Weight lost/gained this week: - 1 lb (.45 kg)
    Weight lost/gained this month: - 17 lbs (7.71 kgs)

    Successes/struggles this week:
    Week 1: Very pleased this week. Blew through my original goal of 217 lbs and adjusted downward to 210 lbs. Long walks, 7-8 miles a day, coupled with a calorie deficit each day did the trick. I don't expect this every week though. Plan to celebrate with a glass of wine tonight!

    Week 2: Not as good as last week but moving in the right direction. Out of town company for a couple of days had an impact for sure. Still walking every day so that helps. Another glass of wine tonight!

    Week 3: Pleased with myself again this week with a 4+ lbs weight loss. A pound of that was a blood donation today. Feel like that is kinda cheating but I will take it anyway. I will probably get it back by next weeks weigh in. Continuing to eat at a calorie deficit and walk daily for exercise. Definitely a glass of wine tonight!

    Week 4: Still moving in the right direction. Expected a slow down so not disappointed.

    Final: Good month. Starting to slow down some now. On to next month.
