* I'm reevaluating my goal weight because it seems unrealistic — some have told me I'd look skeletal at 160 pounds. I'm going to get to 180 pounds and take it from there.

The good news: I'm under 200 pounds for the first time in more than five years. The bad news: I only lost 1 pound this past week, which is a head-scratcher because I didn't do anything different. Maybe I'm plateauing and need to change things up a bit or maybe I'm using a messed up scale.

Two weeks ago I weighed in at 202 pounds, last week at 200 and this week at 199. No tenths of a pound, just even weights, which seems odd and has therefore inspired trust issues in the scale I'm using. Funny how that happens. Oh well, I won't have to worry about it anymore after this week because I'll be weighing in on my own scale in my own bathroom in my own home.

So, my apologies to my teammates for failing to get my weight bonus. Guess I'll just have to GO! harder this week.
