    Aug 30: 243 It seems like my weight wooshes on Monday and drops a little more on Tuesday and Wednesday. It then bounces up a little on Thursday, just in time for weigh in, and then holds relatively steady Friday through Sunday. Not upset since the trend is downward. And really, I'm losing a little too fast. Just kinda neat that I found my body's pattern.

    Original starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
    Challenge starting weight June 21 - 151.2
    Ultimate goal - 145.0 (range between 142-148)


    June 21: 151.2
    June 28: 151.2
    July 5: TRAVELING -- off to row the Wild & Scenic Rogue River
    July 8: Back home -- 146.6
    July 12: 144.8 -- I have hit my final goal, and as of today will start maintenance.
    July 19: TRAVELING -- off to row the Wild & Scenic Rogue River (lap two of three)
    July 23: Back home -- 148.8 -- How did THAT happen?
    July 26: 147.0 -- Still in my goal range, but by the tiniest amount. I guess I enjoyed all the food and drink on the river trip!
    Aug 2: 145.4
    Aug 9: TRAVELING -- SCUBA trip in the California Channel Islands -- 145.0 on August 11 when I got back.
    Aug 16: 147.8 -- Uh oh. I seem to have gained three pounds and bounced up out of my goal range.
    Aug 23: 149.6 -- Now I'm definitely out of goal range. So much for being in maintenance; back to "lose 0.5 pound per week" goal :(
    Aug 30: 149.0 -- That's the first half pound per week.

    Sounds good to me! This one is for summer. We could make a Fall Challenge. That would be September 22- December 20. We could keep each other accountable through thanksgiving!!

    I found this challenge group. They started already but I'm sure we can join.
    Also, our challenge lost quite a few people. This new challenge is more active....
