As it should be

Of course, I gained weight at my weigh-in this morning, and let's be honest, that is exactly what SHOULD have happened based on my behavior this past week.


I gained 2.2 lbs to get my Fat Score to 83.94%.

(For those of you that haven't been playing along, my ultimate goal is to get to 62% of my fattiest fat weight which was almost a year ago, and for the Holiday Health Nut Challenge is to get to 80% by December 28 which will mark a year of this quest.)

Journal every bite? massive fail. After I logged my weight last week, I never opened the PointTracker again until I just entered this week's weight. However, I have logged the THREE miles I ran at 6am where I got to see 6 deer and 2 turtles/birds/snakes. No, not two of each of those, but I could only see a head and no body in the water and am not really sure what the water things were...I have narrowed it down to either turtles or birds or snakes. I have also logged the first 20 ounces of water and my yogurt breakfast.

80 ounces of water? ha ha, I laugh at this because again? fail. Not even close.

So, I am now at my office, hydrated, breakfasted and exercised and it isn't even 9am. I am starting to feel like myself again, and really, that is just so bizarre...because it wasn't so long ago that it was this exact same feeling that made me feel like a stranger in my own skin.

Don't you feel so good when you do the right thing for your body? Wonderful way to start your day - and I love that you got so much in before 9am!

Good job! This weekend I ate: brownies, chicken salad (lots), cookies, chocolate, chips, and pizza. I went jogging this morning and got a stomach ache. I think my body is mad at me.

You pretty much summarized how I've been feeling the last few weeks. For me, snacking is taking over and I'm not eating as many good foods as I should. Today has been bad. My intention is to make tomorrow better.

Good for you, girl. We're both off to a good start this week. Let's make it until at least Friday, eh? :-)

Woo hoo! If I drank 80 oz. of water, I would have to move into the bathroom.
