    Original starting weight (December 2017): 212 lbs
    Got serious (Jan 16th 2018): 208lbs
    M/62

    May starting weight: 184
    May Goal: 181
    Ultimate goal: 179 lbs (BMI <25)
    - Original Goal: 185 lbs by July 1st
    - average 1.0 lbs per week
    - drop about 10% of body weight

    Non-Scale Goals:
    - get BMI closer to "normal"
    - A1C/Glucose back into "normal" ranges (been just above normal)
    - HDL up to 40+
    - Improved fitness - ready for backpacking Grand Canyon (7days) and Philmont with Boy Scouts (12 days)

    May 7: 184
    May 14- 184
    May 21- no weigh-in (in Grand Canyon)
    May 28- Back from Grand Canyon...should be an interesting. Weigh-in
    May 31- 182.5


    Total loss for May: 1.5

    Just back from 6+ days backpacking in the Grand Canyon. Some days, I ate like a ravenous jackal (3500cal per day typical)...backpacking in the desert can do that to you. But it was really all as planned.
    I am feeling strong and fit. My son and travelign companions all remarked about thinner Brian.


    I hereby declate May a SUCCESS, even though I did not make it to 181!

    Doing just fine! Lets move on to June.

    May 13th - 192.2 (Had been down to 191 even on Wednesday May 9th)
    May 20th - 191.4 had been down to 190.2 on Thursday, but had a lot of salt on Friday
    May 27th - 190 it flashed 189 once before deciding on 190. I think I’ll weigh myself on the 31st too just to see.

    Total loss for May - 3.4 again not 5 bug a loss is a loss.

    May 31 - The scale this morning read 189.6 however on Tuesday this week it went down to 187.9. I'll leave it as it is and call it a win.

    I probably won't hit my goal because I have a diet break scheduled from the 21st to the 31st.

    172 so lost 5 this month. Not too shabby for taking a 2 week diet break. I forgot about this until today.
