OK, I am back for another 5lb challenge! I have been very busy the last two months with work, hiking, backpacking, etc. All good as I shifted to "maintenance mode" for two months. I found that it was just not going to be possible to maintain a deficit while hiking a lot and backpacking. From experience I know I need to eat upwards of 5,000 calories when hiking long distances and backpacking. I just cannot run out of fuel/energy (bonk) when out in the woods or desert.
However, I have maintained in the 182-185 range since early June. Success!
But it is time to drop the last few pounds. You all keep me honest and inspire me. We can do this!

Im an emotional eater. I have got to find a way to snap out of it when I’m in a funk WITHOUT using food. Luckily I didn’t gain any more weight than that.

Original starting weight : 304.7 May 5th 2018
August starting weight : 265.3 as of July 28th, I weigh in on Saturdays
August goal : Lose 7.3 pounds, so 258
Ultimate goal : Undecided, still way too many to go. At this point, I go for 8% body weight loss, then keep resetting.
August 4 262
August 11 258 I was in the zone this week total focus
August 18 I have surgery on the 13th and will be sporting a 12 day casetn right arm so not weighing in on the 18th.
August 25 My goal with surgery is to not gain anything to maintain or lose a pound for a stretch goal for month.
So I can start September at 257 that is my goal, at this point.5
