    CW 169.8
    GW 164.8

    August 2 - 169.8
    August 9 - vacation no scale
    August 16- 171.2 - vacation weight
    August 23
    August 30



    I gained 5 pounds while on vacation and I have lost 3.6 lbs of that weight but still have to get down to my
    ticker weight. It has been a difficult summer to lose weight since we are sailors and lots of eating and drinking
    if you know what I mean. Leaving today for a wedding and another challenge with food. Hope to get down
    next week and see some results on the scale.

    Well miraculously I have lost the 3lbs I set myself to lose this month! Next week I'm off on a mini-break so I don't expect to lose any then, I might gain but then I have the final week in August to undo any damage. I'm very proud with myself. (My next goal is to lose 7lbs by the end of October. Whoop!

    Upped my cals this week to start moving towards maintenance. Went up at least a lb of "weight", but I'm going to stick with it and see if it levels out.
