104.6 this morning.
But, my pattern is more important. This week was:
106.2
105.8
105.8
105.4
104.6
Yesterday I rode AND did a boot camp class. I knew that would be the only way to get my weight to where I want it. Now, I need to get it stable. DH is going away for 12 days on Sunday, which means I might have more of a chance to maintain. Of course, the Jewish holidays are during this period, so there will be some extra eating involved.

Hi Possegal,

Can you please reverse my weight goal and current weight? Sorry if I wrote it wrong. I'm looking to get down to 110 lbs, and was 115 lbs last week.

This morning: 114.4

Thanks so much for doing this for us!!

107.3.

Too high, but not going the wrong way. Been off the scale for a week or so on a trip.

[limewave]

Oh dang. Going the wrong way. I was doing so awesome and then had a bad day. Anyone else have "trigger" or "gateway" foods? If I give in to certain foods it opens the floodgate and I have a difficult time controlling my diet after that.

160.6

Back on the wagon!

I was at 231 today. Not great, but not unexpected. A) I still haven't been to the Dr. (appt next week) and B) I had my first 2 exams in 10 years within 2 days. Back to healthier eating and exercising today!

Oh no, I'm sure it was me. It's my adult-onset dyslexia. That's why it is important folks check and let me know. I seem to reverse things a lot or put them in the wrong rows. One challenge, for a brief time, someone had lost about 70 lbs in a week. Ooops.

Oops, a lil' behind already

9/7: 144.2
9/14: 144.2

-- gnat! (points for consistency?)

The big dairy cut past two weeks resulted in a big drop this week from a steady 135 to a sudden 132 this morning. I feel it, too!

107.5 this morning -- wrong way.

Crankin, I think your weight fluctuations look perfectly normal and as stable as anyone can really expect. Everyone can expect to see 1-2 lbs. in water weight fluctuation during a given week without it meaning real weight gain (or loss). What I don't like with mine is that I was 106.5 last week, and this week I have been 107.5 every single day (except one lousy day at 108.0), so to me, that is a bad trend, even though it's just a pound higher -- it's really consistent. Before our August trip to the US, I was fluctuating between 104.5 and 105.5, so I have definitely gained, despite not doing anything different that I am aware of. Urgh.

Wish I could run, but it's just too hot. Mid-80s by 6:30 am and sunny every single morning, coupled with humidity. Just something I can't seem to tolerate. I have totally lost my running mojo.

[firedensprinces]

I want to join please. I know what I weighed on the 7th and I would like to drop 20lbs.

[Crankin]

Emily, I know the fluctuations aren't bad, but I did have a period of pretty good stability for a couple of months. Well, Friday is usually my lowest weight of the week, so I guess that's good for the challenge. I'm just tired of having to exercise so much to keep my weight where I want it. I certainly won't starve myself, and it's not like I don't want to ride or do other stuff, but for just once, I would like to be a "regular person." Of course then, I would weigh at least 20 pounds more than I do now.
