8th week weigh in. I finally figured out, it is my 8th week. I lost for the 8th week. I was down .8, which makes me down 8.6 pounds in 8 weeks. (average 1.075 a week) Though I would like to see bigger losses, I am really happy that I am losing each week and not gaining not one ounce. Three weeks until 2008. My goal is to get to the 10 pound mark at least. Nine more weeks until Hilton Head.
