Warning: This may be TMI, bowel related.

I've been having trouble with my stomach for about a week--gassy, painful, and not able to "go". I was considering maybe even gall bladder trouble because of pain. Also I had my period and that usually clears things up, but it didn't. Yet, I got down to 183 last week. Because of the bowel trouble I re-evaluted my diet (too many potatoes, but I was PMSing) and made sure I had some more salad and oatmeal. I upped my water, too.

I worked out hard yesterday. I cleaned the house, and shopped and was up all day. I only went over my calorie goal by 50--even with my son's birthday cake. The last few days, very good numbers. This morning, let's just say my bowel troubles were over in a big way.

My weight? 184.8!

I know I know I'm not supposed to weigh every day. Some people say do, some don't, I've tried it both ways. At this time I feel I have to focus focus focus and that's part of the focus. Very annoying that I'm up almost two pounds!

On a hopeful note, my measurements are down over all since the last time I measured, and I'm sure they still are. Hope tomorrow is better.
