I started my quest to lose weight on Jan. 15 this year. I wonder where I will be in two years?

You’re inspiring! I wouldn’t feel bad about crossing to the othe side of that line — you’ve made steady progress, and continue to make progress! I hope I can have a graph like yours to show off next year.

The link for “Jen” (second comment) is bad. It made me close out to get out of it. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks.

I was planning on posting my graphs soon, too, but been waiting to analyze my trendline. (this happens when you have a job where you practically LIVE in Excel.)

Your goal vs. Actual trendline is good. BUt I love graphs. You can learn a lot from them.

r – I might enter a 5K in the summer when it’s warmer. I’ll keep you posted.

K & Janice – Well, I don’t want to go around whoring for presents, but since you asked I put together an Amazon.com wish list. I tried to just make it full of healthy stuff, but couldn’t think of much I needed right now, so I stuck other stuff in there, and some She-Ra of course :)

Alpha Mom – I’ve got two words for you regarding the “trend of threes.” Menstrual cycle. If you’re clever you can figure out when I’m ovulating :)

Marla – There were some plateaus, in the 260′s and 230′s. It’s just that two months look pretty dinky up there, though it seemed like forever when it happened.

Lea – I use a program called “Fit Day” to make the chart. I think you can use a program like Excel to make one too, but I don’t know much about Excel.

Long time lurker here! I just wanted to tell you how inspirational you (and your blog) are. What you’ve accomplished is absolutely amazing, and it really gives me hope that I will also be able to meet my goals. I am terrible at computer stuff, but is there an easy way to create the kind of graph you have?

What a beautiful picture. I would definitely frame that.

I am a little jealous that you’ve had no significant plateaus or backsliding. Do you realize how unusual that is???
