    I'm down 0.4 pounds this week. It's a minor victory, but I am getting myself more firmly back onto my plan. I didn't have any extra alcohol this week, as planned. I did, however, snack a bit more than I had planned. I got my exercise in and kept myself to single servings at all meals. Not too bad.

    Next step is to get the extra snacking under better control.

    182/138.6/146

    Good luck with the snacking. If you succeed, I'd like to know your methodology, as I seem to always having something in my mouth.
    I was even, for the third week in a row. Plateau? Maintenance? Still WANT to lose more, but just don't seem to have the WILL to get it done.

    I said last week that I was sure that I’d lose the 0.6# gain, and I’m pleased to report that I did even better - I lost 0.8# (he said, sarcastically). Consider it a failure of expectations, since I thought the colonoscopy prep would have a bigger impact than it actually did.

    So I am now 182.6 compared to 182.8 two weeks ago. Progress, right?

    << insert deep sigh >>

    I’m 0.6# from free Lifetime, and 2.6# from being back at goal. I get that small losses are valuable, that it’s a journey, that it’s not over when I’m at goal - I get all that. I also feel like I’m somehow either a) being teased by being forced to wait just outside the Gates of WW Heaven, or b) being made to pay for my sins over the 5.5 years I wandered in the wilderness. I know it’s just emotion, and it ain’t remotely rational - but it’s how I feel as I sit here on the doorstep in the outer darkness.

    Okay, rant out, whining done, pity party over . . . . back to work.
