    Starting weight - 249.5
    Goal weight - 174.5

    11/3 - 211.5
    12/1 - 205
    12/15 - 203 YAY!
    12/29 - 214 Huge scale spike from this diet break. Restart the calorie restriction on Jan. 4th. Hoping the woosh is just as impressive.
    1/5/18 - 209.5 - good drop from that spike. Reworking my calorie targets.
    1/12/18 - 209 - Not the worst news. Ok, body - I'm patient - but seriously, let's shed some pounds.
    1/19/18 - 215 today - Arrggghhhh! So frustrating. I think I need to lower my calorie targets.
    1/26/18 - 208.5 today. The trend is downward. YAY! Adjusted calorie target to 2000 per day. Hopefully that is the right number. Onward to Onederland!
    2/2/18 - 209 More arrggghhhh! Two more weeks like this and I will adjust calories. It seems like 2000 is maintenance level for me.
    2/9/18 - 210.5 - Looking like a plateau from here.
    2/23/18 - 212.5 after vacay. Back to the deficit grind!
    3/2/18 - 208.5 - YAY! Have adjusted calories to 1800 for weekdays and 2500 refeed days for weekends. Let's see if that will work.
    3/9/18 - 206 - another YAY! Aiming for a new low (sub 203) by the end of this month.
    3/16/18 - 208 - could be worse, but this is getting old. Was hoping to see more steady (albeit slow) progress downward.
    3/23/18 - 205.5 - Okiedokey. Slow and steady loss. Real slooooow! HAHA! :D
    3/30/18 - 204.5 - Progress. That's one pound per week over the last four weeks.
    4/6/18 - 205.5 - I can live with that. Feel great with plenty of energy for workouts.
    4/13/18 - 208.5 - Took a road trip this week. Missed a workout and drank some extra calories. The good news - I am maintaining in the 205-209 range for six weeks now.
    4/20/18 - 204 this morning! YAY! Let's keep this rolling, body!
    4/27/18 - 203.5 this morning and I was at 202 on Tuesday. Slow but steady.
    5/4/18 - 208 - jumped up this week - that birthday party midweek did me no good. The Libra trend line is downward though. Better news next week.
    5/11/18 - 203 - inching downward. I'll take it.
    5/18/18 - 206 - back up this week. AARRRGGGGHHHHH! I'm getting frustrated here. Can't seem to make any consistent progress. Diet break scheduled to start in ten days - I'm tempted to just start it now.
    5/25/18 - 207 - Extreme frustration. Not losing anything for months. On the bright side - holding in this 203-209 range. Time for a break from calorie restriction.
    6/9/18 - 207 - Maintaining on a diet break - I'll take it - no big spike this time. A couple more weeks of this and then I will restart calorie restriction.
    6/15/18- 208 - Maintaining - eating around 2800 calories per day average. Hoping this will allow for some weight loss next month.
    6/22/18 - 208.5 - Maintenance is going well. Been holding in this range for four months. I have been lifting three days a week and getting some workout or exercise three other days. Will start a mild calorie restriction next week, after Independence Day!

    This challenge is about over and I did not make any progress towards that sub 200 goal weight, but getting some experience at maintaining the loss over time. Perhaps we should start another challenge for the next six months.

    Agreed. Learned some stuff, even though I didn't lose any significant weight in the last six months.

    Started another challenge for the next 6 months. Please join in if you would like to continue in a similar challenge.
