Weight this a.m.: 238 lbs.
Weight loss over the last 2 weeks: 2 lbs.
Lbs. to goal: 63 lbs. (175)
Actually, I figured out if I could lose 2 lbs. per week until my 45th birthday next year, I'd weigh 130 lbs. I'm two lbs. behind currently 'cause I didn't really lose anything last week, but since I'm going to actually be stepping up my activity level, and I'm really focused on getting this done and being serious about working on the book, I think it might actually be doable. That would make me around a size 8, if anyone is wondering. I'm hovering in the 18-22 range right now (depending on the clothing manufacturer). I will be happy if I get back down to a size 12, which is actually the size I was most of high school/college. What's really bothering me now is the same old story - excess skin from the weight loss. I'm going to start working with a trainer, because I really can't stand the thought and expense of surgery (although it may be a reality). As I said, I don't want to lose almost 300 lbs. to look like crap in a bathing suit at that point.
