Week 62 + Prior Week Recap

 Prior Week Recap

10/09 - 128.0 - Honestly after the big drop yesterday I expected this.    

10/10 - 127.8 - Good.  I'd love to see this week work it's way back down to Wed weight.  My goal this week is to just not have a gain from last week's weigh-in 

10/11 - 128.4 - eh...not quite the right direction but I'm ok with this.  

10/12 - 127.8 - back the right way.  

10/13 - 129.0 - nope....no likey

10/14 - 129.0 - grrrrr

Week 61 - 10/15

Weight this am - 128.2

Happy Anniversary to US.  28 years married and 31 together.  

I expected a gain this week after last week.   I'm still in the 120's so that's fantastic.   This is also more realistic than last week's 2 pound drop.    What I would love this *month* is to hit 127 officially and hit a new low of 126.0   That would feel great.
