    Total LBS lost this month: 1.2 lbs
    Total lbs lost overall: 19.0 lbs; 10.4 lbs to go for ultimate goal

    Challenges: Sick this week so limited exercise, and hurricane threats kept me from being able to paddle since my race on Sunday (too much wind/too much chop even though on West Coast of FL).

    Successes: Second big weight loss week for me (lost 1.4 last week; usually only lose around .6-.8 lbs/week)

    I tend to weigh anywhere from 122 - 135 at any given time. I'm at 134 now and was at 126 in August...EEK! I'm back into logging my food so hoping that will help. I just got back from a kid free vacation and that was a lot of my issue. Hoping to get back into the 120's fairly quickly.

    Challenges: Retaining water - probably from starting strength training with weights this week. Made for a less than optimal record weigh in. Also only lost inches in my chest...the girls are disappearing!! :'(

    Successes: Started strength training with weights, and am enjoying it...even with the sore muscles the next day. Finally got a nice paddle in yesterday after a week and half of being stuck on land - 90 minutes of joy! :smiley:

    Think I might be in the same boat as you @escalada22 when I weigh in tomorrow...between starting to workout with weights last week (and later reading it can take up to 10 days to flush that kind of muscle water retention), my TOM being right around the corner, and having to pop ibuprofen for a sore shoulder (which apparently can also cause water retention)...I'm hoping for a miracle, but frankly expecting the worst. :/ We'll see tomorrow, eh? Sometimes miracles do happen!
