0.4lb loss.
To be honest, I was hoping for a bit more. I've been completely on track this week, and given the recent gains I thought a good week would make more of an indent.
Another reason for hoping for a greater loss was today is my daughter's birthday - this has meant a birthday dinner with lots of treats and a birthday cake - which is all going to show up in next week's figures, even if I stay completely on track again.
Meanwhile, perhaps I should mention that tomorrow (15th Feb) marks the 6th anniversary since we made the shift to focusing on healthy eating. Although I'm not actually that much lighter than I was 4 years ago

Most of the weight was lost in the first year, with most of the rest lost in the second. Since then it has crept up and down, rising to 26lbs more than I currently am, about 18 months ago, but also falling to around 8lbs lighter than I am now, back in late Autumn.
What is clear with all this, is that this is a lifetime thing. I will not reach the end. I will not reach a point where that will be it, I can just take my eye off the ball and just eat without monitoring.
Left without checking, my weight starts creeping up. Hell, it's been creeping up now, even though I am checking. But without the weekly
excuses stats I put on this blog, I know it would be a lot worse.
