Week Something or Other - Ugh!


Okay, so I gained like five pounds and kinda flatlined over the last week at 257. I've been bad. But no longer. Back to being strict on counting my points (using WW Points+) and today I'm joining the gym and will begin working out on a daily basis. As soon as I can get my pool open I'm going to be swimming laps every day. I WILL succeed!!

2012 - Week Thirteen: Still Going, Going, Going ...

I should try getting more sleep! I haven't reported in several weeks. Bad Jamie! Here's the current deal.

252.0 lb.
Weekly Loss: –2.0 lb.
Total 2012 Loss: 11.2 lb.

I'm starting to look in the mirror and see what I was seeing last year at my best weight, which I'm rapidly approaching. Maybe yardwork this week will help!

I'm also planning on joining the gym in the very near future and add a weight and cardio routine to bump up the physical fitness side of the equation. Thanks all!

2012 - Week Ten: Ten Pounds (ironic!)

Whattayaknow? Ten weeks into the year and I've lost ten pounds! Easy enough to figure out. I'm still about three pounds over where I wanted to be at this point, but that's my own damn fault.

253.2 lb.
Weekly Loss: 1.4 lb.
Yearly Net Total Loss: 10.0 lb.

Today is the 100th birthday of the Oreo, apparently. I better NOT grab a box to celebrate ...

2012 - Week Nine: Need Coffee ...

Forgot to weigh in on Monday. Oops! Catching up now. I've done okay this week! Can't talk ... need coffee ...

254.6
Weekly Loss: 2.2 lb.
Total 2012 Loss: 8.6 lb.

I'm only half a pound higher than the milestone goals I set. I hope to catch up and be on-track or ahead by this time next week!

2012 - Week Eight: Post-Convention Win

The Monday morning after a convention is always one in which I stagger around, growing incoherently, and craving human brains. It's also one in which I usually pay for the sins of the weekend on a morning weigh-in. But I did okay in Tennessee, and even tried to balance out the HUGE meal that my friends and I shared at City Cafe in Chattanooga. So I did okay -- more than okay! This morning the scale said:

256.8 lb.
Weekly Loss: 3.2 lb.
Net 2012 Weight Loss: 6.4 lb.

I'm less than a pound away from being back on track (according to the progress goals I've set for myself). Hmm ... I may even get ahead of the curve next week!

2012 - Week Seven: Gold Star

Sweet! Despite my mother stuffing me with pasta and Mississippi Mud Cake last night, I still managed to make a good showing for the week. If I gain a little ground this week I'll be matching the expected progress I've set for myself.

275.2
Weekly Loss: 2.8 lb.
Net Weight Loss This Year: 6.0 lb.

Only twenty-seven more pounds to go ...

Week Six: Grr!!!

I often do "unofficial" weigh-ins during the week but they don't count. But if they did, I would have been down a few more pounds. But I managed to gain it back just in time for weigh-in day.

260.0
Weekly Loss: 0.2 lb.
2012 So Far: 3.2 lb.

We'll see how the week goes!
