In all honesty I had expected to lose just a touch more weight this week.  I was pretty good on the eating front...  I know I didn't get as much exercise as I had anticipated (there are fires causing very smoky conditions and a health warning all around the San Francisco Bay area right now).  Don't get me wrong.  I am very happy to be continuing the downward trend.  I will just have to redouble my efforts next week.  I am currently weighing 335.2 pounds meaning that I have lost just over 55 pounds in the last 10 weeks.

Here is a graph of my weight loss (if you are reading this in the future this graph will have updated for future weigh ins as well)... Clicking the image will open to a larger image.

This week I continued my knee up version of the 100 pushup challenge.  I have had no trouble thus far with the 3rd level.  I even set a new consecutive push up mark at 35.

I was even able to swim...  I bought a buoy for my legs that you hold between your knees to keep your feet on top of the water...  I only swam twice, but as mentioned about the smoke from the fires has caused a health warning for much of the last week.

I am open to other suggestions for exercise given that my ankle is out of commission and bay area residents are supposed to stay indoors.  Any ideas?

I think I am going to start a upper body lifting program tomorrow morning after swimming. Until next week.
