5/21- 170.0 Delighted! I’m purposely slowing weight loss down; focusing on building muscle/fitness. BMI: 25.1
5/28 169.8 Thrilled!! Noticeably stronger & trimmer (tape measure) as I step up calories & exercise distance & weights. I was really nervous about slowing my weight loss rate, but it’s definitely working & helping. It feels like slowing a fast moving train- it took some extra effort to pull on the brakes & adjust them just right— now the train is still moving just at half speed & it’s more effortless now. Yay!
6/4. - 168.8.
My scale cooperated at the last moment. Silly scale.
6/11 168.8 Was lower, but a few days of no to low fiber diet (and more sodium) to prepare for a medical test has bumped me up temporarily. Water retention. I miss my high fiber veggies, whole grain bread, & nuts!! Back to normal Tues afternoon.

7/23 164.2 BMI: 24.6!!
In challenge 23 weeks: 20.2 lb lost.
I had to get my mind around the fact that the goal weight I’d been shooting for since Jan 2016 was not correct (I’m half inch shorter) & that I needed to lose more. + steroids + exercise injuries + some bad news. Life happens, I did not give up, and all is good now. I’m back on track.
7/30 GW: 167 Actual: 166.4 BMI: 24.9
I was much lower (in the 163’s) but increased exercise, careful food, & 2 restaurant meals during a 4-day trip bumped it to this. Very Happy to be under my GW however!!! Ever onwards!!

5/7 - 171.2
5/14 170.0
5/21- 170.0 Delighted! I’m purposely slowing weight loss down; focusing on building muscle/fitness. BMI: 25.1
5/28 169.8 Thrilled!! Noticeably stronger & trimmer (tape measure) as I step up calories & exercise distance & weights. I was really nervous about slowing my weight loss rate, but it’s definitely working & helping. It feels like slowing a fast moving train- it took some extra effort to pull on the brakes & adjust them just right— now the train is still moving just at half speed & it’s more effortless now. Yay!
6/4. - 168.8.
My scale cooperated at the last moment. Silly scale.
6/11 168.8 Was lower, but a few days of no to low fiber diet (and more sodium) to prepare for a medical test has bumped me up temporarily. Water retention. I miss my high fiber veggies, whole grain bread, & nuts!! Back to normal Tues afternoon.
6/18 - 167.8
6/25 - 167.8
7/2 - 166.8
7/9 - 167.2
7/16 - 166 Have hit my groove again.
7/23 164.2 BMI: 24.6!!
In challenge 23 weeks: 20.2 lb lost.
I had to get my mind around the fact that the goal weight I’d been shooting for since Jan 2016 was not correct (I’m half inch shorter) & that I needed to lose more. + steroids + exercise injuries + some bad news. Life happens, I did not give up, and all is good now. I’m back on track.
7/30 GW: 167 Actual: 166.4 BMI: 24.9
I was much lower (in the 163’s) but increased exercise, careful food, & 2 restaurant meals during a 4-day trip bumped it to this. Very Happy to be under my GW however!!! Ever onwards!!
