I have been working out really hard this week. My hubby has had the night shift, so I've been able to go to the gym for longer periods of time during the day while he can be home with the kids. My weight has fluctuated down and back up 2lbs over the last week. Unfortunately today, it's back up. I feel like it's not really reflecting how much work I've been putting in. On the other hand, I do have to take some responsibility because I have had a few days where I have not been eating as well as I should. I had some major cravings that I gave in to, and also have been doing a lot of running around, and so haven't been on my regular schedule. I am still focused on my goal, and so I'm hoping tomorrow to get back on track with my food. Hopefully my weight will keep heading down in the right direction!!
My ticker doesn't really reflect all the weight I've lost, though, because it went up several more pounds, but I was too embarrassed to adjust my ticker... So really, even though it says only -1 (from my original starting point), I've actually lost about 6 in the last 3 weeks. I can already start to feel my pants loosening up a bit, which is a relief because I really, really did not want to have to go buy new "fat clothes."
Only 3 weeks until we leave for Singapore and Thailand!! I'm hoping to be down about 9 more pounds, but that might be a little too ambitious....... Wish me luck!

Katie, you're doing all the right things! I've learned that every little thing counts. Meaning all the workouts you're doing IS making a change but it may not be apparent the first week or two. And also meaning every little thing we eat that isn't good for us also adds up and eventually ruins our good eating habits or causes us to gain weight. I haven't exercised in a month and I've gained back 2 pounds. I didn't think the little exercising I was doing made a difference but it does!
