In which we assess the damage...

Not damage by a hurricane or anything, and any of you readers (anyone out there? Sis? Anyone?) who have gone thru Gustav, Ike, or any of the other recent storms, my thoughts are with you, but this blog is about my fat, and it's been pretty damaging.

My last post on 9/3, my weigh-in was 282.2 lbs, down from a recent peak of 284.2 lbs, but way up from my most recent low of 274.6 lbs. On that Sunday (9/7), I dropped down to 279.0, setting up a 1.5 lb goal for 9/14 of 277.5 lbs. The past week was somewhat problematic, though. DAPGF started a new teaching semester, but the associated crap that goes along with it (prepping lesson plans and online shells) as well as a pile of the other usual crap (getting food and stuff for the doggie, etc.), I didn't really make it to the gym much this past week. It showed with a peak on my 9/10 weigh-in of 283.0 lbs. Still, I fought back and got down to 280.6 lbs on Saturday morning and then 280.0 lbs this morning. A net gain of 1.0 lbs for the week, but given that I was pushing 4 lbs at one point, I'm ok with that.

I'm not going to get where I want to go with a repeat of last week, so I've got to step up and head in the right direction. The week isn't going to start off on the right foot, because instead of going to the gym after work, I've got a meeting to go to in the early evening. I'm just going to have to work hard at eating right. My goal for next week is going to be 278.5 lbs. Wish me luck, peeps.

At this point I'd be happy for ANY improvement. I've been lazy, all summer long and into the fall. Only got to the gym in the morning for the first time last week. I'm trying to get back into the rhythm. I hope you can do the same. Good luck.
