136.2....sigh

**skhill** · 09-30-2011, 07:44 AM

120.6. Slow and steady, that's the way to go...

**azfiddle** · 09-30-2011, 07:46 AM

117.4 lots of exercise but having a hard time staying really focused when I'm hungry....

**DonnaS** · 09-30-2011, 08:53 AM

Grrr...back to 135.

145.8 this morning. As opposed to 144.4 yesterday. Still lots of noise related to water retention, and no actual progress.

177.

At least it's not up from last week.... I feel good this week, and clothes are definitely fitting differently (not necessarily better, a couple shirts look kind of tent-like in places.....I'm down 20 from a couple months ago) so I'll take it.

Next week could be tough, the boyfriend will be out of town (so less accountability on dinners and more grab-it-on-the-way-home food) and work will be crazy....I have to finish writing an exam, and deal with 180+ undergrads taking their first bio exam....we'll see how all of that goes.

154. Wrong way.

I stuck to program so not panicking yet. Trying to be even more diligent about tracking. Should be hard, racing and camping this weekend. Of course that does mean high calorie burn Sunday.

Today I weigh 143.6. Probably because I slept late and weighed myself around noon -- I always weigh less when I sleep late.

But still, up a 1 lb in a day, then down 2 lbs in a day. Nuts.

Sorry, forgot to post. Crazy busy at the moment!

141.6 yesterday, fluctuating down, but keeping things just right. Except that I need to get more exercise. (And getting invited for lunch at a Thai restaurant is bound to have done some damage. As is my recent lowbush cranberry [lingonberry] muffin baking activity.)

6 weeks recovery after abdominal surgery seems to be a realistic measure. It's just over 7 weeks now, and for the last week I've felt great physically. Better than before! (And I'm nearly 10 pounds down.)

I've come to see that as completely normal.
