March 8th (Betty)

The numbers (this would be for two weeks):

New Weight: 349.6
Pounds Lost This Week: 5.4
Pounds Lost So Far: 34.4
Pounds to Goal: 23.6

I got a new scale - a digital one (hence the tenths of a pound). The old one had apparently finished its battle - it was accurate for the most part, I believe, but gave me a bogus reading when I did a little quality control check yesterday morning (i.e. weighed more AFTER going to the bathroom than before - clearly a biological impossibility!). So, out with the old and in with the new!

BB did well too. Her new numbers are:
New weight: 221.6
Pounds Lost This Week: 4.4 (again, that's two weeks...)
Pounds Lost So Far: 16.4
Pounds to Goal: 7.6

Wilma mentioned something last night about thinking she might not weigh in this week. I told her that she has to. Regardless of the progress, slow or fast, existent or nonexistent, week by week, we're in this for the long haul.

I'll get back on here later today to post a few musings, but for now it's off to breakfast!
