    I'm down 1.6 pounds. I am hoping that this represents the results of my efforts finally beginning to show up on the scale. I had (another) strong week in terms of following my plan, and I'm getting my runs in very consistently, so I'm feeling good about the process at least.

    Just a few more pounds and I think my black suit will fit me perfectly for my daughter's wedding at the end of March. I know we generally strive to avoid goals, and focus on process instead (and goals will follow), but once-in-a-while maybe it's ok to have a time-based goal as a kick in the rear to get you going? ;-)

    Also gearing up for some travel to meet the new son-in-law-to-be. Should be fun.

    Down 1.6 is the magic number today. This is my first loss after a long string of gains, so I'm happy.

    Whhooooosshhh!

    My one change was two weeks ago I lowered my daily points from 30 to 27 - not to weight loss, but not all I’d been using. It didn’t do anything for me last week, because I was up. This week it all kicked in. My daily weigh-in Thursday AM was in the Green Zone, and my Studio result Thursday night was in the Yellow Zone.

    Onward and downward!

    Well . . . my scales didn't work earlier this week, and changing the battery didn't solve the problem. It's possible the battery was old, so I'll try again before buying new scales.

    But . . . dead battery is a great metaphor for my current mood. Winter is frequently tough for me mentally, and the past few weeks have been rough. I'm looking forward to some sunny days.

    I had a bad week in terms of eating. I ate 5984 calories worth of homemade shortbread over the course of five days. It was delicious, and I enjoyed every bite. But . . . yeesh.

    I'll report back once I have the scale situation resolved. One bad week isn't going to throw me off of my goals.
