If you've come to the site in March, April or May, you may have gotten the idea that I'd given up, failed or forgotten about this site or even losing weight entirely. Fortunately, nothing is further from the truth. I've continued to not only lose weight, but I've kept careful track of my daily progress, knowing that I'd get back to updating the site again. What I didn't take into account is that I would get quite so backlogged, so until I'm caught up, I'm going to post a week's worth of updates every day with minimal blogging. I've made notes every now and then to record milestones, comment on changes to my plan, or just random thoughts. I'll summarize those with links to each post as I play catchup.

Another week gone by. My measurements still don't show great progress... or any real consistency. Once again, I'm glad that I have pictures and can feel my clothes fitting looser, because otherwise the tape measure might be very discouraging. Hopefully that will improve with time.

Also good news today in that although my weight jumped a bit back so that I'm back under the 20 pounds lost mark, my fat percentage has dipped below 30% for the first time in... a long time. When I first recorded my fat percentage, it was almost 40 percent, so that's pretty substantial. Of course, the way it jumps up and down via this method, I won't be disappointed tomorrow when I suspect it will go back up.

On an administrative note, I've got an ungodly number of updates to catch up on, so I'm going to start skipping the front/side/back file uploads. I've still got them on my computer and hopefully I can make an archive easily available later, but for now it's a pain to upload 3 extra photos with every post.
