    TOM came this week. Before the visit, I was down to 200.2 (So close to onederland). Then I went up to 202.8. As of Sunday, I reached Onederland (199.6). Today (Monday), official weigh-in day, I am back to 200.2 lbs. Hopefully by next week (or the following at the latest), I will permanently be in onederland.
    Also “New” this week, I set a challenge goal weight (even though we are half way through). I hope for a continued loss of 1# a week (knowing that we still have Christmas and New Year’s to go).
