Delayed weigh-in
As I felt that weighing in on Monday would not truly reflect my progress this week, I made the "executive decision" to do it today. If I'd done it yesterday, it would have depressed me to post a gain when I knew that it wasn't the true story. So I didn't. And I'm not sorry.
I am at 225.4 pounds. And possibly retaining water, as I've not gotten my gallon of water in lately. I still have sore muscles from SATURDAY'S bodyweight resistance workout. Still another 1.2 pounds gone!
My eating Sunday was not ideal. I had hubby bring me a Subway breakfast sandwich before we left. Bread and no prior workout... non-compliant. Then, I did OK on portions at Kwan's, and did not have dessert.
But, by the time we got back from the drive, I was jones-ing for protein... and ate all three of the protein bars I'd bought for the drive! Not so good. Protein yes, but also a lot of sugar. Part of the trouble there was that I was starting to really feel the DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) from Saturday. And I was tired and only had about 4 hours sleep.
Still, just excuses, I *could* have eaten a proper meal, but with Power Bars in hand, too easy to eat them instead.
Then, tired and feeling even more sore, to the point where I was barely able to get up or sit down, I went out to get a prescription that I'd called in Saturday. And as I was getting hungry again, I went and ate at McDonalds. So the day went from bad to worse, I didn't make healthy choices there! The food didn't taste as good to me as usual though, so that's a plus.
Way too many 10% meals this week. Not enough water.
All in all, I feel like I escaped a bullet this week! Forward HO!
Good progress. Keep it up.
Wooohooo that is a good loss! Whoa BW workouts for you? How is your foot holding up? BW can still be very difficult and effective.
Hey Kelly...
See the post on my new fitness toy. Some of the exercises, like the squats and lunges may well be too hard on my feet and will have to be saved for later use when my plantar fasciitis is healed.
I'll probably use the trainer for upper body and core stuff now, but I may try a little with body weight squats once a week. My feet might could take that.
I did feel it in my feet right after the workout... but they were A-OK the next day! I really won't push it on the exercises that could affect my feet.
