I was hopeful when I weighed in this morning and was a little surprised to see that my weight had moved not an ounce. So I weighed myself again. The 15 seconds hadn't helped - still weighed the same as last week.
And after a few minutes, I decided that I am completely OK with that. My clothes feel looser, I'm gaining muscle and I have so much more energy. I'm eating right, working out and feeling good. So there scale - take that!
This week is already off to a good start. I hiked with Rum again on Sunday, a good 3.5 miles in about 90 minutes. And last night, when I thought about skipping my workout this morning, I remembered the numerous people who have come up to me lately and commented on how they are following this blog and how proud they are of me for taking this journey. I never realized how accountable I would feel by doing this but it worked and I packed my bag and was at the gym by 7am this morning. Did a solid 45 mins on the elliptical and took the stairs (most of the time) at work today. Calves will hurt tomorrow but again, I'm okay with that.
So focus for this week is to continue my workouts, tracking my food and trying to stick within my calorie range. I'm also tracking how many days in a row I can go without soda. Today is day 2 and I'm definitely feeling the crave. Didn't realize how hard giving up my diet pepsi would be.
And I will not let this week's weigh in get me down! Here's to a great weigh in next week.
