Week 2---164.2
Week 3---161.7

Total weight loss 12.8 pounds

I learned something very interesting this week. The week that I lost only 1/2 pound and then most of this week I was skipping at least one meal per day,sometimes 2. On Tuesday of this week, I was walking out at the track thinking about why the scale was not moving. I was exercising twice per day. Eating very little food and what I did eat was half portions and snacking was non existent. It came into my head that I was not eating enough calories and that my body was not going to let go of the weight because it felt it was starving.
That day I ate all 3 meals and guess what, a pound and a half gone the next morning. Same with Wednesday, ate all 3 meals and more than a pound gone this morning.

So lesson learned for me. Eating carefully 3 meals per day is what brings about weight loss for me. I cannot skip meals and lose weight.
