Next Milestone -- 310.0(top of my 'danger zone'); 7.6 lbs. to go.

A smaller drop this week, but still a drop and under the circumstances quite good. I had my first little hiccup or mini-rebellion from my body. For whatever reason, I was really really hungry starting on Tuesday. Debated whether to opt for the self-control option and fight what was going on, and there's a lot to be said for that, but I chose to let myself eat as much as I want -- just keeping it healthy stuff. Mostly succeeded, no dessert-type crap at all although I did have some sausage which isn't much better. The next day I weighed 2.5 pounds more, but even though this particular appetite surged 50-60 hours, I was a little lighter every day from Wed through Saturday. Don't know the cause but I figure I dodged a bit of a bullet here, body just needed a change for a couple days for whatever reason.

** Knee Pushups(40, +1) -- Felt a little weak overall, partly due to the heavy schedule at work.

** Squats(4, -7) -- Right knee really didn't like me for a couple days.

I am increasingly somewhat concerned that overall strength doesn't seem to be improving really at all, but as long as I keep losing the weight that's something I can worry about once I get down to where I need to be.
