Week 95 + Prior Week Recap

 Prior Week Recap

05/28 - 116.0 - obviously it didn't stay there.

05/29 - 115.0 - decent

05/30 - 114.4 - that's a bit more where I want to see things

05/31 - 115.4 - still decent

06/01 - 115.6 - decent

06/02 - 116.6 - seriously?  It went up for doctor appointment day?

Week 95 - 06/03

Weight this am - 115.0

That's better.   I'd still really like it to shift down just a few pounds to stay comfortably within the 110-115 range.    Doctor has taken me off BP meds entirely.   Said he doesn't recommend spacing out shots for weight maintenance but I can trial going every 10 days if I want.    We might also explore the pill version in future if it's covered by insurance and something they would be ok with longer term.
