I think I did good!

• Weekly Weigh-In #21: 209.8 lbs.
• Last week’s Weigh-In: 212.1 lbs.
• Gain/loss of: -2.3 lbs.
• Weekly average lost: 2.0 lbs.
• Weight loss for August: 3.1 lbs.
• Weight loss to date: 87.2 lbs.

Last week was a bit strange. The weight pretty much dropped the first few days and then it sort of stayed that way. I suppose I could have dropped a bit more if I tried a little harder but I was satisfied with the loss within those two days and decided to maintain it rather than push it further. But hey, 2.3 lbs. is not bad indeed.

It was a good week for eating, too. As you’ll see in the previous posts, I went out of my way to eat healthy stuff and even splurge a bit with my hot dog. There were no trips to any fast food joints save for my usual Thursday visit to Subway.

Even though I’m inching ever closer to my goal, I’ve made a few changes to my stats (again). The second bullet has been changed to “Last Week’s Weigh-In” instead of “Last Week’s Weight”. Just something that started to bug me. And because I am using my Weight Tracker iPod Touch app, I’ve also added “Weight Loss for [month]”. Those should be the last changes I make to the stats area–should be 🙂

Admittedly, I took a night off from Wii Fit last night as I was just dead tired. I needed a break to watch some of the Olympics, which is probably the most TV I’ve watched in a long time. (GO USA!) Despite last night’s laziness, Wii Fit continues to be a mainstay of my routine.

Finally, at long last, I have decided to bring back the Weight Watchers Points Excel Chart. The term is still popular: well over 600 search queues and nearly 1,000 page hits on this post. With such popularity, I would imagine people are a bit disappointed when they realize it’s not there.

So who am I to disappoint?

At any rate, you can now get it by going to my Google Docs page. This is a direct link to the file and it will download it immediately. You will be downloading the file only. Nothing else. Seriously.

The details (from last update):

• You can now use one chart for the entire week! Each chart contains sheets from Monday-Friday so that you don’t have all that clutter of creating one each day.
• You now have a Points Bank that automatically generates the total of reserve Points! Try and keep a few Points in the Bank each day so that you can treat yourself on a job well done by the time the weekend comes around!
• As usual, the chart is completely customizable so you can do whatever you wish to it. It would be a good idea to keep a copy of the original handy in case you mess things up.
• Google Docs isn’t the most robust gadget in the world and you’ll notice that some things didn’t quite work the way they should have, such as having your reserve numbers in red. I tried many times to correct this and only became frustrated so you’ll have to fix it yourself or live with it 😛

But please, guys, by downloading it you understand and agree to the following:

• This Excel chart comes without warranty or guarantee.
• I will not be held responsible for any damage it may cause to your computer. Chances are it won’t but I want to have all the bases covered here.
• I am not Tech Support; please don’t e-mail me with questions as they will be deleted. You’re pretty much on your own with it.
• Don’t ask me where you downloaded it. I simply won’t know.

Got all of that? Good. Go and enjoy it!
