I'm out of the 260s and I never want to go back. I've lost 20 pounds so far and feel great. What is amazing is that I can't imagine how much better I'm going to feel when I lose another 20 pounds.

Yesterday was a fantastic day. I not only followed my plan perfectly, but I went above and beyond my plan by lifting weights for the first time in a long time. I feel sore this morning, but that is to be expected and it feels good knowing that it is from working hard yesterday. I hope to keep this up as part of my routine.

Today is going to be a great day. I have a full day of work that includes two business meetings, one being at lunch. I am hopeful that I will eat sensibly at lunch and then at my later meeting at a coffee shop I hope to not eat anything there. That will be difficult because the coffee shop is the one, the only, Cafe Latte in St. Paul. This isn't a normal coffee shop. It is known more for their amazing desserts as well as food. I hope that I'm not setting myself up for failure by going there.

If I can keep from overeating today, and I exercise and get enough sleep, I think I might be able 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!
