That is what happens with my averaging too. This week my average happened to coincide with the WW weigh in, since I was up all week then down on Saturday morning 🙂
Good job.

I saw somewhere else that your total weight loss since Feb. 2002 is 97.8 lbs. That's really wonderful, Joyce, and amazing. Congratulations on this week's loss.

Thanks Lee. The *ish* remains the same. I'm kind of in a 'what happens, happens' mode of thinking right now. Not trying hard to lose more weight, but also not trying hard to stay firmly where I am ... but AM trying hard to not go up. Does that make any sense at all? <grin>

I've been noticing it happening more and more often since I decided to use the averaging method. Again this week ... I even saw the 12's yesterday and today ... will be interesting to see what the average works out to be on Friday. I haven't been able to weigh EVERY day though - a few days have had me up and out the door without time for much more than a quick potty stop. <g>
For where we are currently, and what we are *trying* to accomplish though - I still think the averaging method is the best way to go. It keeps things in perspective while keeping us on our toes if we do see that upward trend.

Thanks PR! I still am amazed everytime I see that number - probably why I keep it in a sig somewhere. I have a feeling I *need* that reminder every now and then.

LOL Laura! No way am I going for a 120'ish - not in my wildest dreams. I guess I have reached my goals, personal and ww - don't really have anything cast firmly into my brain for now. Last year the doc told me 135 absolute lowest ... but didn't say if that was weighing with or without clothing. Since I weigh at home (nekid) I started thinking I should shoot for around 130 which would give me a little clothing allowance if I ever let the doc weigh me again. I blame it on Fred and Lesanne who started talking about the winter clothes weight. <g>

Great job. When are you changing your "ish goal"? I think you past the 140ish goal a while ago. I'm waiting for it to say "120ish".<g>

Thanks Fred. At least while playing the continual bouncing game, the numbers are staying reasonably in the same ballpark. That's really my main goal right now.

it makes total sense, and honestly is what I wanted to hear. I was getting a bit concerned... since your Dr. has said not below 135. Glad you have a healthy attitude about it, Lee Joyce <[email hidden]> wrote in message "]news:[email hidden]...
