Folks, this will be a short post tonight. I’m pretty tired and it’s late so let’s get to it.

Weekly Weigh-In for May 8, 2018: 236.8 lbs.
Loss/Gain for the week: -0.8 lbs.
Total lost:  8.0 lbs.
Weekly average loss: 2.0 lbs.

I’ve reached 8 pounds lost! It sure doesn’t feel like it but I can definitely see the difference in my waist (read: handles are disappearing). And although a loss is still a loss, it looks like I’m slowing down. While the average is still well above the 1.14 lbs. per week I need to achieve in order to reach my goal, it will level off very soon.

I did manage to go running (5 miles) and riding (18 miles) this weekend so that’s a plus. I’m also mixing it up a little at work by walking the last few days instead of riding the bike, which doesn’t burn as many calories but is a nice change. It’s given me the opportunity to carry my camera around town and take pictures, a hobby I enjoy tremendously.

So I think that will do it for tonight. Eight pounds down, 36.8 to go! We’ll see how next week’s weigh-in goes!
