Six Months In The Books

Today was my six-month weigh-in.

I had hoped to be at 60 pounds gone by this time, a nice, even average of 10 pounds lost per month. But, came up just short.

I did lose one pound this week, which puts me at 58 total.

Obviously, I'm still happy with how things are going. I've just got to make sure my motivation stays strong. I've noticed it wavering a little in recent weeks, but that's not unusual in a process like this.

Keep the comments and emails coming. They are a greater source of that motivation than you realize.

The Scorecard:

Week One - Lost 9
Week Two - Lost 3
Week Three - Lost 3
Week Four - Lost 0
Week Five - Lost 9
Week Six - Lost 5
Week Seven - GAINED 2
Week Eight - Lost 0
Week Nine - Lost 5
Week 10 - Lost 1
Week 11 - Lost 3
Week 12 - Lost 0
Week 13 - Lost 7
Week 14 - Lost 1
Week 15 - GAINED 3
Week 16 - Lost 5
Week 17 - GAINED 3
Week 18 - Lost 4
Week 19 - Lost 3
Week 20 - Lost 0
Week 21 - Lost 6
Week 22 - No Weigh-In Due To Traveling
Week 23 - Lost 1 (Covers Week 22 as well)
Week 24 - No Weigh-In Due to Schedule Change
Week 25 - Lost 0 (Covers Week 24 as well)
Week 26 - Lost 1

good think you don't live aroun columbia...if ifs and butts were candy and nuts columbia would have a lot of candy and nuts and it would be hard to stay on a dietLOL! take that carolina callers to dan's show. you know who you are! that included kevin jones and those other gamecocks on your station. what an embarrasment to the clemson community!!! dan, please have that show taken off the air. it's not appropriate for your show, a show of high caliber and quality, to be followed by a show that is oviously of lower quality. i heard they had to pay the station to have that show put on. i hope it was a boat load of money, like the stations weight in gold worth of money. otherwise i can nt see how it was worth it. anyway, i hope that you continue to be succesful weight loss programme. kimberly (CU 93) btw, you said you were looking for someone to walk with. i walk every day at the central rec center. it's a great place to walk and i hope to see you there with the rest of the people.

Ummmm Kimbe.....never mind. Good job Dano! Not as much lost as I'm sure you wanted, BUT no gains! And with that time on the road you had that is very positive. Trying to stay active and eat right on the road is VERY difficult, I know!

don't care for the carolina fan. you can tell one by the grease in the hair and the goodwill suit. i saw a survey that said colomcia was one of the worst places to live in the country. no surprise there. it is hot but i don not think it is because of the sun but because of all the gamecocks and politicians with their candy and nuts LOL. kimberly
