I decided to create a table of my weight loss. Even if I don't blog every week, I'm going to try to keep this table current. I think it will be helpful to me to see it organized this way. There is link to this post on right hand side of my blog. Look for the "See My Weight Loss Chart" link.

I started my "Grand Ole Opry" Challenge a couple of weeks before the West Jordan Biggest Loser Contest started. So my totals on the "home scale" side are about 9 pounds more than the Biggest Loser totals.

I was pleased to see that I'm losing about 3 pounds a week pretty consistently using my home scale. I weigh myself first thing every morning without clothes on. I think it tends to be more consistent than the Biggest Loser scale. I don't know if it's because I weigh in later in the day or what, but I never have any idea what their scale is going to tell me. It's been averaging out in the end, but I don't like seeing the +.4 when I know I've lost weight that week.

Although my weekly home scale chart looks pretty consistent, my daily way-ins are more over the place. During the week I usually lose some, then go up a bit, stay up, panic, then see the numbers come down again.
