After MONTHS in the 220s, I'm finally on the move again! It's so much easier to stay on track and make good desicions when the scale is moving. My july 4 goal was 199, not gonna happen... Shooting for 210 now. Really, I'm just pleased the scale is finally moving again!

Start Weight (March 6): 250.0 lbs
March 9: 249.6 lbs
March 16: 248.0 lbs

June 6: 215.2 lbs
June 12: 212.5 lbs

June 12 was my last official weigh-in for this challenge, as on June 11 I found out I was pregnant. Unfortunately, after several weeks of problems I underwent abdominal surgery (laparatomy) on Thursday to remove an ectopic pregnancy. My weight was still down at 212.3 before the surgery last week, and so I think I should probably be pleased at having gotten within 3 lbs of my goal of 210 by 4th of July - but I am still disappointed to not yet be able to get back on track. The surgery did not go smoothly and so I am looking at some recovery time, but I hope to be back and challenging again in a few more weeks. :)
