Another week and another step further away from the 200 lb line on the scale.  Today’s weighin: 197 lb, down two more pounds from last week’s scale reading when I reached the milestone of weighing in under 200 lbs.  

The next milestones I am focusing on are: reaching 185 lbs, the weight I was when I travelled to Egpyt years and years ago and after that reaching 155 lbs what I weighed on my wedding day in Sept. 1991, then it will be on to focusing on reaching a realistic healthy weight to maintain (140 lbs).

The scale was not working for most of this week so I wasn’t able track my weight as closely as I like too and I was worried I would need to buy a new one.  But before heading to the scale store I decided to try a new battery, so last night I stopped by the local CVS and got a 9 volt battery.  After popping in the scale was working just fine.  It would not have been that big a deal to have to get a new one, but am glad I can stick with the same one I’ve been using all this time so I know the scale readings are consistant.
