Monday was the end of week 5

I was out of town so this is getting posted late. I was at 279.5 at the end of week 5 which means I had a 1 1/2 lb weight loss. That seems so disappointing after losing so fast. I hope that it is only temporary and that things will speed up again. I really want to escape this fat body since I am starting to see progress. I know it took me many years to get this fat, but now that I have set my heart to doing it, I want it done and NOW.
