Whew! made my August goal by the skin of my teeth (to use a gross cliche).

To paraphrase another cliche: stick a fork in me, I may be cooked! I still have to decide if I am going to continue in weight loss mode in September or segue into maintenance & fitness goals.

My goal is/was to get to what is supposedly the "ideal" weight for my height & frame - that is 130 pounds or less. I sure wouldn't mind a few pounds buffer either. I used to maintain in the 120s for most of my adult life ... but I am just not sure at this point in my life if it is worth all this work to claw my way down a few more pounds.

Honestly, the majority of my clothes fit great again so if I lost much more weight I would have to invest in a new smaller wardrobe (such a problem to have...)

But adding fitness is non-negotiable either way - I am SO "skinny-fat!!"

ON TO SEPTEMBER!

ETA: here is my weight loss chart so far. I find it interesting that I can identify every weekend party/trip from the bumps up
