New Year

Over the last 4 week I had lost just over 13 pounds.  This pace was not sustainable, and has not been through my entire weight loss.  I knew this was going to be a hard week anyways with lots of drinking on Friday and Saturday so I was not expecting much this week, in fact [...]

Last Monday’s Weight:  226.6 Pounds Today’s Weight:  222.6 Pounds Pounds Lost This Week:   4 Pounds Estimated Weight [...]

I tend to write these on Sunday night before my actual weigh in and usually do not have to change them too much.  I went to be assuming I was going to have a loss this week since my Sunday weight was 223 and I did not cheat on Sunday, boy was I wrong. This [...]
