Somedays it seems like the scale is off, like it isn't working the way it should, where I wonder if this digital tool might be malfunctioning. This morning was one of those times. I hopped on the scale expecting to lose weight. I had done a good job yesterday following my plan and I expected to lose weight, but I didn't.

Last night I had a meeting to attend and that kept me from eating after 5 p.m. I was sure that I was going to lose weight on the scale this morning but it didn't happen. It is days like this that I question the scale, but I know that it was probably right and that even though I followed my plan exactly it just didn't work out. I just have to keep plugging away and I will lose the weight if I stick with the plan.

Today is going to be a great day. I have a full day of work and then tonight we are going to watch a movie as a family, probably a Hallmark Christmas movie. If I can keep from eating popcorn during the movie I should lose weight in the morning. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!

Sometimes You Just Have To Do It! 235.4 pounds, + 3.9 pounds today, + 1.6 pounds this week, - 18.6 in 2025, - 97.6 pounds overall
How do you celebrate big events in your life? I'm trying to not have all of my celebrations be about food, but last night I couldn't help myself. We had much in our family to celebrate so we went to Lolo's, a wonderful restaurant in Stillwater, Minnesota. I ate just about everything on the menu. I had two appetizers, a main dish, and a wonderful chocolate brownie with ice cream. When we came home for some reason I felt the need to continue to stuff my face, so I had a huge bucket of popcorn with butter on it. All of that led to a record weight gain of nearly 4 pounds in one day. Unbelievable.  Today is going to be another difficult day for me like yesterday. I am going to a funeral and then tonight we are going out to eat as a family. I expect to eat a lot today as it will be an emotional day and I am an emotional eater. I am going completely against my plan. We'll see how I do today and we'll see how much weight I gain on the scale tomorrow morning.

Keep Riding The Wave! 231.5 pounds, - 1.1 pounds today, - 2.3 pounds this week, - 22.5 in 2025, - 101.5 pounds overall
How do you keep your momentum going? For me, I want to ride the wave that I'm on for as long as I can. There is no better time to make progress than when you are making progress. It might not always be easy to do, but everything is there to keep you moving forward, so keep riding the wave. Yesterday was a great day. Work kept me busy all day and I managed not to eat after 5 p.m. I exercised in Zone 2 for 30 minutes and I had 8 hours of solid sleep. This is my formula for success and it is working for me, so I am going to keep at it.  Today is going to be a great day. I have a full day of work and there is no reason I shouldn't be able to follow my plan. I am excited to get out of the 230s and I'm really close now, so I need to keep pushing to hit that goal as soon as possible. We'll see what happens today and we'll see what the scale says tomorrow morning!
