    Joining late. I'm not sure if I can lose 10lbs by the end of the challenge or not, but hopefully I can get close to that.

    Late weigh in. The week before was not good. I had networking events allll week so food and alcohol were EVERYWHERE! Ugh. Going to Vegas for a couple days. My challenge to myself is to not only maintain my weight, but try my best to lose this week. Wish me luck! 💪🏻

    1) I need to taper to maintenance and do not know where my "final" weight will settle.
    2) I met my Easter challenge goal of 165 lbs early, went on two weeks of maintenance, and gained a pound. Ugh. (In my defense I had to attend THREE seders AND a big Easter dinner. That was a very ham-and-wine-intensive weekend.)
    3) I will be traveling for three weeks in May so, realistically, may not be able to manage my weight as well as I have at home...but I will sure try.

    For these reasons, I want to participate but without a set number of pounds for the final weight. My goal will be to lose between 0 and 3/4s of a pound per week.

    5'10" and over 50

    Goal Range for July 04: 159-163
    Ultimate Goal Range: 150-157 (?)

    On vacation since May 8 and just now found a scale...

    04/29: 166.0
    05/08: 166.2 <--Start of vacation
    05/19: 165.5

    04/29: 166.0
    05/08: 166.2 <--Start of vacation
    05/19: 165.5
    05/29: 167.2 <--End of vacation

    Three weeks in southern Spain and (mostly) without a scale took its toll on me. But I regret not one minute of it. :-)

    This challenge is really working for me! I know that I’m going to be accountable. Hoping to hit 155 lbs again next week!
