Progress doesn't get much smaller than that. I lost 0.2 pounds yesterday and it was a hard fought battle to get that. I exercised twice, once for 30 minutes on my indoor bike in Zone 2 and once on a walk. I ate after 5 p.m., which I didn't want to do, but I had gone to be too early and couldn't get to sleep so I ate a midnight snack of peanut butter on bread. That did the trick and helped me to get to sleep, but it also contributed to not losing more weight. Sleep is more important so I'm glad I did that.

I'm not sure why I couldn't get to sleep last night. I worked hard during the day and we went to the St. Croix River to go fishing after work. When we came home I did a brief workout with weights and went to be shortly after that. Maybe that was the reason I couldn't get to sleep, I was too worked up from my workout and shower.

Today is going to be a great day. I have a full day of work and I have chores to do around the house after work to keep me busy. I'm feeling a llittle sluggish and I'm not hungry, so I'm going to see how long I can go without eating. I hope to exercise and get 8 hours of sleep. If I can do that I should lose weight again today. I need to get out of the 260s and to be done with them for good. We'll see what happens today 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!
