Well...I made it through July without hitting the 120's. I'm really disappointed by that.
Guest room is finished. Floor is done. Furniture is in and set up. I've got other things to clean now and prepare. Need to clean the bathroom and vanities and then sort and organize costumes.

A day full of disappointments. Weight is up again and Julian called to cancel our visit. Craig is sick. I'm just in a bad place today all around.
Just going to work on tiling the guest room.
Weight this am - 130.6
Oh this is promising. I'm excited.
Guest room is empty and ready for tile. Need to get this done so we can go on our visit to see the boys! I'm so excited.

What a difference a year makes. Last year I was 189. This year 131. That's a difference of 58 pounds! Even though I seem to be in a plateau right now I still have to look at the progress and be so very proud and excited.
Had dinner out at Jinya and then came here for game night. It was an awesome birthday.
Weight this am - 132.2
again
stupid scale
Got all the furniture cleaned and organized. Then spent a while cleaning and sorting everything else. It took a while but the whole room is together and I love it.
Going out to dinner tomorrow with Arietta and Thad.

It could keep going this way. I wouldn't object
Read-through was awesome. This is going to be a fantastic show.

Game room floor is done and sealed. Now I get to assemble it.
Tomorrow is first rehearsal/read-through of Midsummer. Still waiting for final cut script.
Weight this am - 131.8
Damn scale keeps popping back up on weigh-in day. Stupid stall. I hates it.
Got the main portions of the game room floored. Need to edge tomorrow and I can then seal it and put it all back together.
Weight this am - 132.2
AAARRRGGGHHH I am definitely stuck in a plateau
Started flooring the game room today.
Weight this am - 131.8
Now if this would stay, that would be great. Got the call today. I am offically cast as Puck in Midsummer. This looks to be a great cast. I'm excited.
Ozzy Osborne died today.
FINALLY finished sanding. Now to prep and tile.
Weight this am - 131.8
Yup. Definitely ignoring yesterday. That didn't happen.
Took Rowan to PP for their labs.
More sanding. Sanding is annoying. Sanding is also not done yet dammit. Stupid sanding.
Weight this am - 132.8
What the actual hell? I'm just ignoring today.
Got the floor clean and the carpet glue residue up. Also started sanding. Sanding takes forever. This is my life now.
Weight this am - 131.4
Seriously....this should've been Wednesday.
Auditions today for Midsummer. Was great seeing everyone.
I didn't get work done on the room because I was reacting to all the dust we kicked up. I'll get there. It's a process....much like this weight loss.
Weight this am - 131.8
Where were you on Wednesday. These last 2 pounds man. Just don't want to budge.
Emptied the game room and got it ready to work on. That's the next project.
Weight this am - 132.0
At least it's on the way back down
Finished my office today. Everything big is moved in (except the treadmill) and I love it. Of course I still need to go through all the minutia but that's a lot of sorting etc and will be tackled after we get more of the flooring finished. Poor Mark may have a very overstuffed office for a while while we get the other 3 rooms set up.

Doctor follow-up. Finished installing the floor. Now it needs to be cleaned and sealed before I can move on.
Rowan's 19th Birthday today. Went out to Chi for dinner. Probably ate more than I should.
Weight this am - 131.2
Working on the flooring. Trying to get the room done. I keep sticking to the ground. Game night tonight at Arietta's as well.
Weight this am - 130.0
Nice to see that low again. I am still waiting to see the 120's on the scale. I really want to be in the 120's for my birthday. Let's see how it goes.
Weight this am - 131.2
Definitely a trend. At least it's hovering at a lower weight than Wednesday. That's a good thing. I'd like to see the scale get closer to 130 on official day rather than just as a low.
Today should see the start of the flooring upstairs. I need to go finish sanding everything and then sweep/vacuum/mop. Then we lay out the tiles and begin to trim.
Tonight we head out to Sean's party at the bar.
This is the final week of Month 12. Lets see how this goes.
Weight this am - 131.2
I'm sensing a trend.
Tiles were supposed to be delivered today. We had a delivery window and I didn't want to be upstairs when they showed up and miss them so I waited to start things until they got here.
And waited
And waited.
That took forever.
Good news is they are here and the color will look great upstairs.
Now I just need to install them.
Weight this am - 131.2
Today is the day for my follow-up to my abnormal mammogram. Did not sleep well last night. Not thrilled about how long it took to get the appointment either.
They left me waiting forever because apparently my appointment was scheduled incorrectly. Good news, I only had to have the ultrasound and the spot of concern is just a benign cyst. No cause for concern, come back in a year.
That's awesome.
Weight this am - 131.6
This is the start of the last week of Month 12. That marks out 4 full quarters on the medication and is just under a month away from my 1 year anniversary on the meds. It will be interesting to see where things fall.
Weight this am - 132.8
Knew that was coming. Hopefully it goes back down for tomorrow.
Arietta came over today to make cookies. Still working on prepping the floor
Weight this am - 130!
I hit my mini-goal! Next step is the 120's. OMG. It's finally really within reach. I am ONE pound away from a sixty pound loss.
I decided for the final 10lbs to do micro-goals. So my next micro-goal is 127, my next mini-goal is 125, then a micro-goal of 123, and a final goal of 120.
I hit my last mini-goal on May 25th so this 5 pounds has felt like a long journey, but it's finally here.
Weight this am - 130.8
I was not expecting THAT. That's awesome! I guess I needed a cheat day.
I hope it stays here or keeps going. That's only 0.8 from my next goal weight and I cannot wait to get there.
Weight this am - 132.2
That's the right direction.
Ordered the flooring for upstairs. ALL of upstairs. Spent the day painting. The room is done and I love the new color. It's bright but not obnoxious. It makes me happy. Now I need to sand floors and prep for when the tiles come in.
Weight this am - 132.4
Right back down again. I guess yesterday was an aberration.
The world is shit right now...I definitely don't feel like celebrating.
Weight this am - 133.8
Well, that was quite the jump.
Went to see Lauren this morning then grabbed some stuff from the grocery store.
I decided on a cheat day today and had some Jack in the Box for lunch.
Weight this am - 132.2
It's getting closer. When I start seeing below 132 then I know I could have a temporary drop to the 120's at any time. This week my goal is to see 131 on the scale. I think that's doable. My next weight to check off is 131.2 so I'm only a pound away from that now. I'm so damn ready to hit the next mini-goal. It's time.
Game Night was fun. We scheduled another one for this month. Need to bring MORE games so we can actually play them. Clue tends to be a *one and done* thing.
At least my weight went back down. Now it needs to stay here for tomorrow.
