Sunday Weigh-In--End of Week 2

Before I post my official Sunday weigh-in today, I will make up for not posting since Wednesday.

Thursday, July 22: I had a really great day overall. My daily calorie intake was awesome, I stayed well within my range. I even did a bit more cardio exercises at the gym than what I have been doing, and I loved it!
Daily Weigh-in: 194.0
Exercise: Walked 1 mile on track, strength trained lower body, EFX (think of an elliptical) 1.31 miles, and the bike 3.0 miles.

Friday, July 23: The day was very similar to Thursday's. In fact, it might have been even better. I had plans to go out with the hubby for dinner and a movie (my bday is on Monday, so we were going to have a little one-on-one time), so I wanted to make sure that I did some awesome exercises at the gym and ate really healthy, low calorie foods all day to make up for what I was planning to get for dinner. Now, keep in mind, I wasn't planning to go all-crazy, overboard with the calories. I just wanted to sort of counter what I was possibly going to eat. Didn't really matter anyway. We--hubby and I-- got into an argument and didn't go out (That's another story.). Oh, well. I ended up grilling more boneless, skinless chicken breast and had a healthy dinner at home.
Daily Weigh-In: 193.0
Exercise: EFX 2 miles, AMT 1 mile, bike 3 miles, and walked the track for a .5 mile.

Saturday, July 24: Earlier in the week, I had decided that I would try to go to the gym Monday through Saturday and take Sundays off. Well, that sort of didn't happen. I was way too tired to pull myself out of bed Saturday morning at 6a.m., and I decided to take that day off. I figure, I'll try to have 6 days at the gym next week. I'm pretty sure the reason I am feeling so tired is due to the monthly visitor. Yeah, can't wait for that visitor to leave. Sure makes managing cravings difficult.
Daily Weigh-In: 192.6 (Whoa! Even with the monthly visitor!)

Today, Sunday, July 25: So, did you manage to stay with me? :) Today, I slept in again. I figure I might as well rest up if I'm planning on exercising Monday through Saturday next week. I still feel blah, but I guess that's to be expected. So, let's move on to the official Sunday weigh-in, shall we?

Official Sunday Weigh-in: 193.2

Well, I do have to admit that I am a bit bummed by only being down 1.2lbs, but I have to remind myself that it is that time of the month, so maybe next week will reflect a lower result. I'm sure it will. The good thing is, I haven't felt bloated like I normally would have. I feel fine. In fact, my jeans are still feeling loose! Yay! Also, I pulled out all the jeans that I own. Some sort of fit me, some not so much. I pulled a jean out of each size (14, 12, and 10) and have set them on my night stand. I currently wear a size 16 (most of my 16s fit, though a couple are a bit too tight...hmm...), so I am anxiously waiting to be able to pull on a 14 and be able to button them. Also, I found some shirts of mine that I had out-grown, in the pile of jeans they went. My goal is to be able to wear at least one of the shirts by December. On a positive note, I feel as if my face looks less puffy. Less puffy is always a good thing. Ok, so, I need to update my weigh-in page and sweatin' page as well. Off I go.
