    Ultimate Goal Weight: 150 will put me at the top of the normal BMI range but I think that's the # I've ultimately always wanted. Being under 200 would be a blessing (it has been probably 10 yrs since under 200)

    Gain/Loss for the week: Gain .7 lb. Had a total nuclear melt down over this. Shouldn't have but did. We went out to eat the night before weigh in, not totally bad, shouldn't have been an up. Alas, underlining things led to the melt down. Talked things over with Deb. Better now, but not logging for a little while, still making pretty good choices. Total loss for the month 2.7

    Good work everyone
