    7/5 - 197.6 - 2 Birthdays, the holiday, and my period. (forgot to check in here last week but I track daily weights so I was able to refer back to my notes)
    7/11 - 193.0 - Finally! A whoosh! I was 195.2 yesterday after not getting below 196 for almost two weeks! Back on the right track
    7/19 - 194.0 - Libra app still shows a general downward trend at rate of 1 lb/week. But my data points have been above the trend line a few more times than I prefer to see so I know I need to tighten up the eating and logging
    7/26 - 192.0 - 20.6 lbs lost to date - this week was a good one with consistent lossess
    8/2 - 192.0 - TOM imminent so ive been hovering around this weight. Food and moving have been good, and meds taking improved!
    8/9 - 190.4 - No TOM yet, hormones are so fun! Moving in the right direction still though!
    8/16 - 187.0 - STILL NO TOM. UGH. No, I'm not pregnant. Closed on the house so hoping it shows up now that some stress has subsided. Big drop this morning because I didnt eat too much yesterday, too hot. Oh but I just noticed I've lost 10 lbs since starting this challenge so thats fun! Getting close to 30 lbs lost.
    8/24 - 185.5 - TOM arrived! And whoosh! Doing well with lots of physical activity as we continue to move!
    8/30 - 185.0 - Hovering this week. Very little routine still so its a bit of a struggle but I'll get there!

    Initial Goal Weight = 139 (last weighed this in 2013)
    Ultimate Goal Weight = 127 (last weighed this in 2011)

    6/23: 166.2
    6/30: 165.8 (I got a new scale and it is weighing in .5 heavier, would've been 165.3 on old scale but going with the new one)

    9/22:

    Pounds to Challenge Goal = 4.4 (Aprox. 1.5 lbs per week)


    Weekly Update: Down 1.5 from last week. 3 more weeks left to this challenge, and still on track to make my goal weight :) This past week was a slightly frustrating week with the scale, it was holding at a number and not dropping but then finally there was a whoosh the last 2 days. But the good thing is that I don't let that affect me anymore, I know I am on the right path with my fitness, nutrition and commitment to my health and I can now roll with any weird scale fluctuations and static numbers, stay the course and the results will come!

    -65.7 lbs

    8/18: 161.4 aBMI=24.2 trimming some calories, exercising!! Best I’ve done since April...

Big drop this morning because I didnt eat too much yesterday, too hot. Oh but I just noticed I've lost 10 lbs since starting this challenge so thats fun! Getting close to 30 lbs lost.
    8/24 - 185.5 - TOM arrived! And whoosh! Doing well with lots of physical activity as we continue to move!
    8/30 - 185.0 - Hovering this week. Very little routine still so its a bit of a struggle but I'll get there!
    9/7 - 182.5 - Whoosh! Short term goal #2 achieved! 30 Lbs lost!!! Way ahead of schedule this point but I suspect things will start evening out a bit as the physical move is over and routine returns to more normal. At this rate I've been losing at 1.5 lbs/week since April - excpecting to slow down to 1 lb/week to keep it more sustainable.
