24th Tuesday weigh-in

219.0 lb

Down 0.5 lb from last week. Total loss of 8.5 lb toward goal to lose 30 by my birthday.

Found my shoes on overstock.com for $74... so at least I did not pay $120 twice... but I am still arg som en spik!

I missed one morning cardio workout this past week, I just didn't wake up in time.

Still haven't started the lunch or after work weight lifting at Gold's. Maybe if Linc were to join...

I think I overate over the weekend so I was not able to post a higher loss, but even 0.5lb is better than staying the same or gaining it back.

23rd Tuesday weigh-in

219.5lb

Down 0.5 lb from last week. Total loss of 8lb toward my new goal I set on weigh-in 18 to lose 30 lbs by my birthday.

12 weeks and 19.5lbs to go. Goal is still doable but I need more 2.5lb loss weeks to give me a comfortable buffer for any bad weigh-in weeks.

I haven't been hitting the gym at lunch which I plan to pick up again. I had two pairs of shoes before Austin but am back down to one because I left a new pair at the hotel and they didn't put them in the lost and found. So my new $120 shoes are gone and I have to shuffle my old pair around until I have time/money to re-buy some more.

22nd Tuesday weigh-in

220 lb

Easter dinner is a killer for a diet. I skipped lunch but still ended up 2000 calories over that day.
Have not missed any workouts at least.

21st Tuesday weigh-in

??? lb
(218 lb on Saturday, loss of 2.5 from the week before)

No scale to use, I will update with my weight on Saturday again.

I am really digging thedailyplate on livestrong.com, might even spring for a gold membership. I think I am on track to lose 2 lbs but we'll see. It will be good to be back on a schedule like I was before, weighing in each Tuesday, but I am not letting myself become a victim of circumstances. I haven't missed a single workout in the past three weeks and have tracked just about every bite on the calorie site and, lo and behold, I consistently lose weight doing that.

20th Tuesday weigh-in

??? lb
(I weighed in Saturday morning at 220.5 lb down 2 lb from last Saturday)

Whoa I am late with this post and don't even have a weight to report. I'm sorry, but I refuse to lug a bathroom scale up and down the airport. I will weigh in Saturday and edit this post with the number. I am proud to say: I have kept track of what I ate every day on the livestrong.com meal tracker and worked out everyday this past week except Sunday.

I hear it is snowing in Utah. I am so glad I am not driving in that junk to the gym. But now I wonder if the spring garden I worked so feverishly on to plant in March is going to be a total bust, Rebecca said nothing is sprouting up and the furrows are full of snow. I worry that maybe if I had planted it a weekend earlier, it might have had a chance to sprout during that brief warm period of about a week we had before the weather betrayed us.
