Weigh In:

4/06/20 – 202.8 Starting this round in the right direction. Working on my glucose numbers which is standing in the way. A very l..o..n..g way to go, but I’ll get there on all counts!
4/13/20 – 203.7 I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful Easter and that everyone is okay. Now…..to get this number down!
4/20/20 – 202.5 That’s better!
4/27/20 – 203.2 Phooey! Multiple supply travel trips explains it best.
5/04/29 - 205.7 drats! It actually went higher and I’ve been moving it back down, but no excuses! I’ve got to get back to Onederland again, and that is just a start! My birthday is on Sunday. I would love to keep the scale moving downward as a present to myself.
5/11/20 – 205.1 Some improvement. I just need to see it in longer stretches!
5/18/20 – 204.2 It’s moving slower than I like but at least it is staying in the right direction. Please God, give me continued strength. I really want Pizza pretty bad and am not strong enough to control the portion yet.
5/25/20 – 205.3 I know what to do, I just have to do it!
6/01/20 - 206.8 Lots of travel involved with this weight gain. More travel today. It will level off & that will help.
6/08/20 – 211.0 I’ve left myself no room for success this challenge. All I can do is make improvements and that is what I will do!
6/15/20 – 208.7 Better than last week but light years away from my goal. I must just keep building on my strengths and my improvements. The 2.3 pound loss this week is just what I needed to keep up my momentum.
6/22/20 – 208.2 Slowly going back down. I know I can do better in the food dept. My exercise and movement have been great – my saving grace on some days. My biggest issue is that I am working so hard that I am too tired to cook. I have been trying to make decent choices in my quicker foods but I know that I can do better.
6/29/20 – 208.8 Feeling like a miserable failure but I refuse to stop trying.

Well, I didn't get to my goal of 170 LOL! It was too ambitious and I forgot to add the human element in my calculations. Nonetheless, it's going to be alright, as if we look away from the scale I've been exercising 6/7 days a week consistently, eating within my calories, drinking enough water and sticking with the plan for longer than I ever have before.

Here's to the next 3 months!
