    Congrats!

    I reached my lowest weight in many years this morning. But, since I don't have any Chinese restaurant dinners taunting me in my immediate future, I'm going to wait until tomorrow morning to report in officially. Here's hoping it doesn't pop back up overnight! Hah!

    Okay, I'm inspired to stick to the healthier eating plan as best I can -- steamed veggies, lean meat, limited bread, no rice, potatoes, sugary fake stuff, etc.

    This morning I was 223.6. I could hardly believe it.

    I might actually make 220 by the end of the month.

    Whoop!

    Edit: 10pm, just got home from the Chinese restaurant where we had ten at our table and we were served on one of those big lazy Susans, family style, and I didn't keep track of what I ate at all because except for a fish dish and the beef and broccoli, it was all battered and fried or smothered in some kind of sauce, which was all delicious, but I'm already feeling the salt swelling my fingers. I'll still report in tomorrow as usual, but I think I'm going to be missing that 223 this morning.

    And tomorrow I've got a fundraiser for my school that will involve champagne and appetizers flowing all through the evening, and then some gourmet desserts specifically designed to loosen the purse strings. I even get to wear a dressy dress. Should be fun.

    135.2 - the WRONG direction

    Can't figure out what I am doing wrong, but am meeting with a nutritionist Monday. I know that I've been remiss in taking my thyroid replacement every day lately - which is probably much of it. I don't have a thyroid...probably also too many carbs & not enough calories - a combination that always causes me to gain weight.

    I'm stuck at that 138 again. Dang, once I get off track, it takes me forever to get my s*** together again.

    But Ohio has some sunny weather in the 50-60s, so that will help with even more riding, hiking and trail building.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend.

    I'm still at 230.0. For reasons I won't go into here, I'm happy with that.

    216.2

    Finally broke through 217, which I'm happy with, because that's the weight I got stuck at 7+ years ago (after losing from my high of 260-ish). I spent about a year bouncing around 217-219 and then watched it go up and down in the 225-235 range for ages, eventually climbing higher and bouncing around 240.

    All of that to say that I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere.
