HOLY CARP, I’m in the 160s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At 167.8 I’m closer to my “goal” (140) than I am to where I started (209) and I’m officially not obese!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, little excited here

I had no expectations for this week because it was pretty bad. I tracked it all, but there were: a 52.5 point day (technically last week but the scale doesn’t magically know that), a 42 point day and a 36 point day. Don’t regret a bite of either the 52 or 42 point days (guacamole, pork belly sliders) but the 36 point day was stupid munchies. I was perilously close to going in the red for WPs, but I had 19 APs whic helped.

I’m a scale peeker because I can deal with the fluctuations but I didn’t want to see the damage from the 40/50 point days until I had enough water to flush it. I got on the scale last night at the gym and was floored when it read 170 (last week WI was 170.6) because a) it was evening and b) that scale is on crack at the best of times.

That gave me resolve to WI today (day early – but I’ll be down the Shore this weekend) and I bounced out of the Center. I may or may not have bounced on the scale itself

I’m even more determined for my next mini goal: 159 or 50 lbs down by Sept 19th when I see some friends I haven’t seen in a long time. Not sure what my next goal after that is.

Want to reward myself for 40 lbs but not sure how. Don’t need a pedicure or a haircut and manicure is a waste on me. Hmm, off to think about that while I’m down the Shore this weekend.

ETA: my size 14 capris are falling off me. Literally.
