Weekly Weigh In and Weekend Re-cap

Hey there,

Well, this morning is quite challenging for me. Late yesterday afternoon I came down with some sort of bug. Sore throat, fever, chills, aches and pains, etc. I slept under a blazing hot electric blanket all night and still couldn't get warm. Pete says it felt like he was sleeping in fire all night.

As for the weekend, we found ourselves very busy around the house and I realized that I did not eat every 2 - 3 hours nor did I take in enough water. On Saturday, I looked at the clock only to find that it was 4pm and I had only eaten an egg  white breakfast burrito earlier that day. I was completely starving and ready to eat ANYTHING that came my way. I even purposed going to Olive Garden. I tried justifying it by saying that I would get whole wheat pasta and the dish I like had lots of veggies in it - WHAT?!!! Thank goodness Pete stood his ground and said no way. We ended up going to Outback where I had the tiniest and leanest steak and a dry baked sweet potato. Turns out that was really satisfying and I left happy again.

So I am sure you're thinking "get to the weight loss already!" Well, it's not as great as I had hoped but a loss is a loss is a loss so I will take it. This also makes me want get back on track this week and really stick to the plan as tightly as possible. I did work out this weekend and I was set to go again tonight but if I continue to feel terrible, I will wait another day.

Anywho - my weight loss was a half of a pound and Pete's was 2 pounds! Way to go guy!

I also promised a few people that I would not weigh every day so my goal this week is to not weigh again until next Monday...

I'll keep you posted.....
