Week 13: 311.7 (-24.1)
April 1st, 2007 at 1:34 pm (Physical)
Starting weight: 335.8
Last week: 313.5
This week: 311.7
Change this week: -1.8
Overall change: -24.1
Next milestone: 25 pounds gone
I don’t want to get too excited here, but one of my morning weigh-ins1 this week was well into the 300-plus-single-digit range. I’ve been over 300 pounds since I was 18 or so, and the lowest I ever got was during my 2004 Weight Watchers attempt when I reached 304.2 pounds and then crept back up to 340. I’ve never crossed the 300-pound threshhold in my adult life and I’m looking forward to that.
300-plus-single-digit is sort of exciting because it brings that goal into focus, along with a few others. Like, I’m annoyed that my Next Milestone goal has been “25 pounds gone” for so long. Soon, it will be mine.
- Keep in mind that I weigh daily but only report a weekly average. [↩]

YAY! CONGRATULATIONS! I do one ‘official’ weigh in a month but I weigh myself almost every day. I way I see it, even if my official weight isn’t the lowest I see that month, the fact that I’ve seen it (if only temporarily) is definately progress because I must be doing something rigth to see it at all.

Congrats! I’m getting rather sick of the “decade” I’m in right now and will greatly rejoice when I finally get to the 170’s. I’m not a numeroligist, but it’s hard to deny numbers have some power over me whether I like it or not.

Yay for you! That’s fantastic. I remember crossing from 300 to 299 — it was a funny feeling. I know you’ll be there soon. You’ve done a fantastic job and I’m very proud of you. I always enjoy reading your blog.
