Weekly Weigh-in #18: Still Here, Still Working

Last week's weigh-in marked a nice milestone on our path to healthier living: we've passed the 75-pound loss mark as a couple. We stuck to the nutritional portion of our guiding principles during this week, but both Mrs. and I fell short of our workout goals.

On the bright side, neither of us gained any weight this week. Still, Susan and I both know we could have worked harder and that isn't a great feeling.

We've decided to recommit ourselves this week. As I write this Susan has just finished an intense 45-minute workout and I'm about to jump into my exercise routine. We refuse to give up on ourselves or each other. We both believe that we can lose 2-4 pounds this next week if we are willing to put in some extra effort in our workouts.

I guess we'll find out in one week. Here are this week's numbers:

Jay

Starting weight: 301 pounds
Current weight: 259 pounds
Pounds lost this week: 0 pounds
Total pounds lost: 42 pounds

Susan
Starting weight: 238 pounds
Current weight: 203.5 pounds
Pounds lost this week: 1 pound
Total pounds lost: 34.5 pounds
