Weighing In on Progress: Celebrating 4.6 lbs Lost for a Total of 28.3 lbs.

Tracking weight loss can be a powerful motivator, especially when the numbers show steady progress. After missing last week’s weigh-in, this two-week update brings some encouraging news: a 4.6-pound loss and a total of 28.3 pounds shed since December 5, 2025. That’s an average of about 3 pounds lost per week, which is a solid pace to maintain. With 94.6 pounds still to go, I’ve already reached 10.4% of my goal weight. Here’s a closer look at what’s been happening and how I’m staying on track.

Tracking Progress Over Two Weeks

Missing a weekly weigh-in can feel like a setback, but stepping on the scale after two weeks gave a clear picture of progress. Losing 4.6 pounds in this period confirms that the plan is working. Since December 5, the total weight loss of 28.3 pounds reflects consistent effort and commitment. Averaging 3 pounds per week is a pace that balances steady results without extreme measures.

This progress is encouraging because it shows that small, sustainable changes add up over time. It’s not about quick fixes but building habits that support long-term health.

What I Ate and How It Fits Into My Plan

Food choices play a big role in weight loss, and keeping meals simple helps maintain control. On this weigh-in day, my meals included:

• Half of an everything bagel with 1.5 slices of turkey and half of a fried egg for breakfast

• A total of 5 chicken strips split between lunch and dinner

• An apple planned for the evening snack

• A monk fruit zero sugar Red Bull with 10 calories for a little energy boost

  
  

Notably, I’m still avoiding Starbucks coffee, which helps reduce extra calories and sugar. This approach focuses on portion control and balanced protein intake, which supports muscle maintenance and satiety.

Staying Motivated and Looking Ahead

The goal is to lose about 15 pounds per month, reaching 150 pounds by Christmas next year. Breaking down a large goal into monthly targets makes it feel more manageable and sustains motivation. With 94.6 pounds left to lose, this plan provides a clear roadmap.

In addition to diet, staying active is part of the routine. Today included contract work in Montesano, which adds movement and helps burn calories. Combining physical activity with mindful eating creates a strong foundation for continued success.
