Great choices while out to eat tonight (even did well skipping the ice cream!)
Avoided the junk food while shopping for Staycation
Today's Not So Good Things:
High carb lunch
This week has been up and down. I had a good day on Monday, food wise. Tuesday was great by way of exercise/activity. I worked hard mowing all morning and then weeded. However, the pizza at dinner wasn't a smart choice. Today was a good follow-up to that bad day, though.
I weighed in on Monday and saw 207, so def no loss. But, then I got a 205.8 on the scale Tuesday morning, so I'm not sure what to think. It's possible I was retaining water Monday morning. I hope so.
Here's the really big news. I started my cycle on Friday. My first pp cycle. Blech. That means all kinds of things for me, but it puts a whole new pressure on me regarding my weight loss efforts. I would be lying if I didn't confess that I'm feeling pretty frustrated with myself that I haven't lost more before my cycle returned. Now that my fertility is back, I am more nervous than ever to walk into another pregnancy as unhealthy as I am today. If anyone is still reading here, I covet your prayers that I would press on stronger than ever in the coming weeks. Pray my self discipline would grow, as well as my joy in this journey. Thank you!
