| date | weight | loss/gain? | total loss | comments |
| 11/24/04 | 182 | +1 | 62 | i really need to get back on track. |
| 11/17/04 | 181 | +2 | 63 | - |
| 11/10/04 | 179 | 0 | 65 | - |
| 11/3/04 | 179 | +1 | 65 | TOM bloat. big time. i feel like a blimp. |
| 10/27/04 | 178 | 0 | 66 | argh! AGAIN! |
| 10/20/04 | 178 | 0 | 66 | this is maddening. if you look at my charts and fitday, i had a great week. i expected to lose at least one. it better happen next week. |
| 10/13/04 | 178 | -1 | 66 | it's kinda frustrating re-losing weight, so i'm not super excited about this, but i acknowledge that down is good. only 7 more pounds to re-lose. |
| 10/06/04 | 179 | -2 | 65 | alright. back in the 170s, and it's all down from here. |
| 9/29/04 | 181 | +5 | 63 | sigh. back here again. obviously, i ate a lot on my vacation. never fear, i am home and on track again. next week i'll be back in the 170s to stay. |
| 9/22/04 | -- | -- | -- | on vacation, no weigh-in |
| 9/15/04 | 176 | 0 | 68 | i thought this week went better than that. i'll just tell myself i lost .5 and it will show next week. :) |
| 9/08/04 | 176 | -5 | 68 | obviously, some of last week was bloat. i'm glad to be heading downwards again. |
| 9/01/04 | 181 | +4 | 63 | this is not ok with me. i did horribly this week, but 4 pounds? terrible. i'm back on track starting NOW. |
| 8/25/04 | 177 | +3 | 67 | well, i didn't lose after surgery. guess not being mobile doesn't help, and eating plenty of sugar doesn't either. i'm happy i didn't go over 180, though. i'm going to take control of this and start going back down again. |
| my knee surgery is aug 5th. i will be home recovering for 6-8 weeks, and it may be ahwile before i can stand on a scale well enough to get a proper reading. when i can, i will post it here! | ||||
| 8/04/04 | 174 | 0 | 70 | that's good with me. now the real challenge is to LOSE while recovering from surgery! |
| 7/28/04 | 174 | +1 | 70 | ditto last week's comment. i feel bloated, but it's no excuse. bad. bad. bad. |
| 7/21/04 | 173 | +1 | 71 | ok, not a plateau. a gaining trend. bad. this is due partly to pre-TOM and partly to bad eating over the anniversary weekend. |
| 7/14/04 | 172 | +1 | 72 | i'm starting to feel like i'm in a plateau again... |
| 7/07/04 | 171 | 0 | 73 | better than a gain, right? |
| 6/30/04 | 171 | -1 | 73 | this is actually good. down from a high i saw this week, and it's also TOM week. can i break into the 160s next week? boy, i hope so! |
| 6/23/04 | 172 | +1 | 72 | this makes me nervous about what is to come with the surgery. not enough exercise is bad. not enough home prepared food is also bad. |
| 6/16/04 | 171 | 0 | 73 | this is as good as a loss in my book. i can't exercise much plus last week's number was after a stomach flu. |
| 6/9/04 | 171 | -3 | 73 | this *could* be due to having the flu over the weekend. let's see if it holds on for next week. |
| 6/2/04 | 174 | 0 | 70 | i'm bloated from TOM, so a maintain is good. |
| 5/26/04 | 174 | -1 | 70 | losing this pound makes me more sure that last week was real. |
| 5/19/04 | 175 | -7 | 69 | two days of a fast, 1 day healthy eating, and 4 days of south beach gave me this. i'll take it! |
| 5/12/04 | 182 | -1 | 62 | yup, still in limbo. |
| 5/05/04 | 183 | +1 | 61 | TOM. that's the only excuse. |
| 4/28/04 | 182 | 0 | 62 | still stuck here. c'est la vie. |
| 4/21/04 | 182 | -1 | 62 | - |
| 4/14/04 | 183 | +2 | 61 | will this never end? i feel as if i'll never break 180. |
| 4/07/04 | 181 | 0 | 63 | TOM |
| 3/31/04 | 181 | -1 | 63 | only 1 more until virgin territory! |
| 3/24/04 | 182 | 0 | 62 | we'll get a loss next week! |
| 3/17/04 | 182 | -1 | 62 | these last few to get back where i was are going soooo sloooow. but down is good. 26 days of on plan eating! i need more exercise though. |
| 3/10/04 | 183 | -1 | 61 | i have TOM bloat, too. good to see it going down consistantly. with 19 days of on-plan eating! |
| 3/3/04 | 184 | -5 | 60 | that's more like it. i was on plan the whole time and it worked. how about that? |
| 2/25/04 | 189 | +4 | 55 | obviously, not ready enough. i got sick and i never got on track once i got better. i am weighing weekly again, because i need the accountability. |
| 1/28/04 | 185 | +5 | 59 | it was a bad month. but i'm ready to DO this. again. |
| date | weight | loss/gain? | total loss | comments |
| 12/31/03 | 180 | -3 | 64 | back to my lowest weight and ready to tackle 2004! i will only weigh in once a month from now on. |
| 12/24/03 | 183 | +3 | 61 | what can i say? it was a bad week. |
| 12/17/03 | 180 | -1 | 64 | this is the weight that is on my driver's license! |
| 12/10/03 | 181 | -1 | 63 | this makes my net loss for december 0. gotta pick it up! |
| 12/03/03 | 182 | +1 | 62 | argh. candy + no exercise = gain. |
| 11/26/03 | 181 | -2 | 63 | 2 lbs for a whole month is pretty slow, but any loss is good. |
| no weigh november! not weighing again until 11/26 - day before thanksgiving. | ||||
| 10/29/03 | 183 | -5 | 61 | i am one happy camper. october was a good month. |
| i am doing a challenge. i am not going to weigh weekly in october. next weigh in date: 10/28. this means i am HIDING the scale. i am using different challenges to stay accountable. will i make it? | ||||
| 10/1/03 | 188 | +1 | 56 | i can FEEL the TOM bloat. i know it's what caused this. |
| 9/24/03 | 187 | -1 | 57 | i like the downward trend. =) |
| 9/17/03 | 188 | -2 | 56 | slow and steady... you know. |
| 9/10/03 | 190 | -1 | 54 | i was hoping it'd all be gone by now. |
| 9/3/03 | 191 | +2 | 53 | TOM strikes again. |
| 8/27/03 | 189 | -3 | 55 | this feels good. gotta try to replicate this week every week. |
| 8/20/03 | 192 | -1 | 52 | this is also frustrating, though better than a gain. i expected more. |
| 8/13/03 | 193 | 0 | 51 | this really frustrates me, i had a great week, i worked really hard... i wanted to see a loss. |
| 8/6/03 | 193 | -3 | 51 | i started counting calories again. i can do this. i'm about to break into virgin pounds. |
| 7/30/03 | 196 | -2 | 48 | this week went a little better. i'm still not in the groove. i can get back down, i promise myself. |
| 7/23/03 | 198 | +5 | 46 | SUCK. this is not cool. i need to try harder. |
| 7/16/03 | 193 | -3 | 51 | one word: yay! |
| 7/9/03 | 196 | +2 | 48 | many factors played into this: TOM, being away from home, not exercising, etc. i'll just work on getting it down for next week. |
| 7/3/03 | 194 | -3 | 50 | yay! 50 lbs! i am so excited! |
| 6/25/03 | 197 | -1 | 47 | i was prepared for the worst, so i am pleasantly surprised. |
| 6/18/03 | 198 | 0 | 46 | after grad weekend, with no exercise and bad food, this is a HAPPY maintain! |
| 6/11/03 | 198 | -1 | 46 | still going down is GOOD. there was nothing special about this week, and after losing 5 last week, reconfirming that it really happened was all i needed. |
| 6/4/03 | 199 | -5 | 45 | onederland! i really didn't believe it. i double checked on thursday even. but it's true! YAY!! |
| 5/28/03 | 204 | -2 | 40 | this week was pretty good, but the two days before my weigh-in were higher caloire. i'm glad to see that didn't affect the result! |
| 5/21/03 | 206 | 0 | 38 | i was worried cuz i didn't get much cardio in this week. i injured my calf and ankles. i ate well though, yay me! |
| 5/14/03 | 206 | -3 | 38 | i'm not totally certain about this number, but if it's right, WOOO! i *did* workout hard and eat right this week. =) |
| 5/7/03 | 209 | -1 | 35 | - |

| 4/2/03 | 215 | -3 | 29 | feeling back on track! |
| 3/26/03 | 218 | 0 | 26 | getting frustrated..... |
| 3/19/03 | 218 | 0 | 26 | - |
| 3/12/03 | 218 | +1 | 26 | not doing so good |
| 3/5/03 | 217 | +2 | 27 | can we say "burned out?" |
| 2/26/03 | 215 | 0 | 29 | i ate well, but it's been a tough week. i'm ok with maintaining. |
| 2/19/03 | 215 | -1 | 29 | TOM, even. i'm stoked!! |
| 2/12/03 | 216 | -3 | 28 | YES!!! |
| 2/5/03 | 219 | -2 | 25 | finally.... |
