In the end, there are bigger concerns even in my small realm, than whether or not I lost weight last week. This morning we are finally getting the first real rain we've had in over a month and that trumps the disappointment I felt earlier when I weighed in.

Still it's discouraging, as it is for so many other people, that the last few pounds seems be particularly hard to shed. As of the moment I may just try to reach the CK goal by October 1 and leave it at that.

After 17 weeks of this I'm still not sure what I'm doing. I had a very good week last week, hit all my targets and keep moving for the most part but still didn't see a loss. I'm a bit worried in that I don't see how I can add calories for a maintenance diet at this point...

It looks like I've bagged the park for this morning so the coming week will be catch-as-catch-can including my first yoga-Pilates class Wednesday morning and the first ride of the season on my road bike.
