Not bad! 262.7 pounds. + 0.2 pounds today, - 2.6 pounds this week, - 3.3 pounds this month, - 17.3 pounds since May 1, - 70.3 pounds from my all-time high of 333 pounds.

Mornings like this make me wonder if the scale is broken. Seriously. To lose over 2 pounds in a day, especially when I didn't do anything special to lose weight make me suspicious, although I'll take it.  Yesterday was a pretty normal day. I didn't eat too much, but I did eat after 5 p.m. I didn't exercise because of the continued strain in my IT band. I also didn't have a good night of sleep. With all of that I would have been happy to lose any amount of weight, but to loose over 2 pounds is really remarkable.  Today is going to be a great day. I have a full day of work and the weather continues to be fantastic with sunshine, dry air, highs in the 80s and the leaves changing color. I wish I could get out and do more, but I need the strain of my IT band to go away. More focus on food is the order of the day. I need to try to not eat after 5 p.m. I'm not counting on losing weight again today since I just lost 2.5 pounds, but I'm going to do what I can to not gain weight. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!

I don't feel like I did anything special but I still was rewarded on the scale this morning. The strain of my IT band is still bothering me but it doesn't seem to be as bad as before. I'm still going to stay off of it until it feels 100% better. I really hate not exercising, but the good part of this is that it makes me focus more on what I'm eating and when. My sleep hasn't been great lately, but I hope that will improve as I lose weight.  Today should be a good day. The weather is great with highs in the 80s and it is really dry outside. I'd really like to go on walks but I feel like I need to not do that until my IT band issue is gone, so I just need to focus more on eating properly and not eating after 5 p.m. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!
