    234.4 end weight. I had a lot of ups and downs this month. Over the last two weeks I must have been retaining a lot of water and maybe gained a little too. I went up almost 6 lbs at one point. I am not sure what was going on, but I am on a new medication. It doesn't matter though because I am determined to reach my goal weight some day. I know I can do it. :)

    Didn't make five pounds...oh well. It was a lofty goal at my current weight anyway. And besides, if starting a new exercise routine is what made my weight loss stall a little bit, I'm absolutely fine with that! Congrats to everyone who made progress this month :happy:
