A holiday weekend and a GAIN?

Ugh. That about sums up how I'm feeling this morning.

Last week was a success. At least until Sunday....then yesterday. I was on point with my food choices EVERY. SINGLE. DAY until Sat- I indulged in 2 s'mores, but I still stayed on track. Then a HUGE church cool out on Sunday before fireworks. I certainly indulged more than I should, but I had earned almost 70 EXTRA points on top of my weekly. I didn't eat that much, did I?

I skipped my work out yesterday, had biscuits and gravy for breakfast (fat free milk made, but STILL), relaxed and watched a movie with my kids, air popped popcorn with butter and then an AMAZING blue cheese burger on a pretzel bun. I didn't bother to track Sun or Monday. I think that's what hurt.

I made sure to get up and get RIGHT back on track this morning. After 15 min of my T-25 I went to check my fit bit and I had forgotten to put it on my sports bra! Darn! So I missed approx. 2300 steps, so it's like it didn't happen. However, it did and I need to remember that :-)

Anyhoo, let's get to the UGH part, I got on the scale and expected to see a bit of a down. BUT-----I was UP 1.4 lbs! SERIOUSLY? UP? I get that I indulged a bit, but did that REALLY not only UNDO my work but ADD 1.4 friggin LBS!

So, that's where I am today. I'm frustrated, I want to eat and just say forget it, but I can't. I know the work I did last week, I KNOW this will pay off. So I'm hoping when you hear from me next week, I can tell you I lost that 1.4 plus some. But if I don't, I'm not going to quit because I can't. My goal is to get back to GOAL- that's now 20 lbs. This  is GOING to happen.
