loose 20 lbs (read all 3 entries…)
Untitled

I seem stuck at 108 lbs. Not a bad weight, by any means. Perfectly respectable and something I could live with. I’ve lost 16 lbs . . .

But my goal was 20.

If I loose these last eight, I’ll have lost 24 lbs this year.

Now, THAT’s something to be proud of.

I’m not sure why I’ve stalled out on these last eight pounds. At least I seem to be pretty consistently at 108 and don’t fluctuate more than a couple of pounds either way.

I have a fitness re-assessment tomorrow, and hopefully I can ask my trainer how to loose a really targeted amount of weight like 8 lbs and keep it off. :-)
