All good things must come to an end I guess. This is especially true if you work to bring them to an end, which I think I did yesterday. I did not follow my plan yesterday. I ate too much, and most importantly, I ate after 5 p.m. I did get a good night of sleep but I didn't exercise, either, and I paid the price on the scale this morning.

Last night my wife made a wonderful meal and I thought that I would enjoy a little of it. We'll, there is a reason I try not to eat after 5 p.m., and last night was a perfect example of why I don't want to do that.

When I ate dinner I couldn't stop myself from eating more, and then some more. I didn't eat as much as I have in the past, but I did eat too much and It showed up on the scale this morning.

Today is a new day and a chance to get back on track. I have a full day of work and meetings to keep me busy. I hope to exercise and get a full night of sleep. If I can do that and not eat after 5 p.m. I hope to lose weight again. We'll see what happens and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!

I Need To Get Out Of The 260s! 261.5 pounds. + 0.4 pounds today, - 1.2 pounds this week, - 4.5 pounds this month, - 18.5 pounds since May 1, - 71.5 pounds from my all-time high of 333 pounds.

Well, at least I didn't gain a whole pound. Last night I took my daughter out on a little date and we went on a drive to Stillwater, then we drove to our favorite restaurant in St. Croix Falls called Poco Loco. The food there is delicious. I was outside of my eating window as I ate after 5 p.m. I also didn't exercise as I'm trying to have the soreness in the IT band in my left leg go away. Finally, I didn't have a good night of sleep. All of this combined to make me gain weight, but not as much as I thought I would all things considered. Today should be a better day. I have a full day of work and if I can keep from eating after 5 p.m. perhaps I'll lose weight. I won't be exercising and I hope to get a good night of sleep. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!

Fantastic! 261.1 pounds. - 1.6 pounds today, - 1.6 pounds this week, - 4.9 pounds this month, - 18.9 pounds since May 1, - 71.9 pounds from my all-time high of 333 pounds.

I'm amazed at what I saw this morning on the scale. I ate more than I should have yesterday, and I ate after 5 p.m., which I shouldn't have, and somehow I still managed to lose weight. The only thing I can think is that I worked pretty hard vacuuming and shampooing the carpets throughout the house. I haven't been biking for about a week because I have pain in my IT band in my left leg. One of the best treatments is rest, so resting my leg I will do. But yesterday I actually managed to exercise by working on the carpet. It took me over 3 hours to finish the task.I'm guessing it was all that work that did the trick. Today is going to be a better day. I have a full day to keep me busy. I hope to not eat after 5 p.m. Let's see what happens today and what the scale says tomorrow morning!
