    08.20.21 weigh-in: 200.6

    I'll admit that this was a hard pill to swallow, so to speak.

    I have not ONCE gone over calories, and I carefully weigh and track every single thing that I eat and drink like it's my darn religion. I've been working out -- swimming about 1.25 miles every day this week, plus strength training and even some yoga/stretching (thanks to the GoT challenge!).

    Yeah, yeah, yeah. My brain is fully functional and I know that it's ToM and that means water retention. I also know that exercises like lap swimming and lifting weights build muscle, and that weighs more than fat. I also know that sometimes, the body just needs to take a breath and recalibrate before it starts moving again, and this isn't even a true plateau because it's just a couple of weeks. But last week, I was down to 198.4, and now I've popped back up to 200.6.

    Stress is a factor too. My kids go back to school and I head into my student teaching experience next week. I have to miss their first day of school (two 3rd graders and a kindergartner *sob*). I'm trying to finish my second Masters so that my husband and I can finally separate and move into the next chapter, and this student teaching assignment seems to be making things extra tense because it's making our pending separation very real -- and it's very sad. :cry:

    Still, while my brain knows these things, my soul feels a bit wrecked that I've been at the same weight for a couple of weeks now, even though I've stayed on track with CICO and I have been exercising diligently.

    I will persevere and next week will be a loss, I'm sure, but in the meantime, just allowing myself to feel the disappointment before I head to the pool again this afternoon, where I will hopefully swim some more laps. And I'll go ahead and strength train and stretch this morning because I know it's the right thing to do, no matter what the scale says.

    Time to tighten my ponytail and double-down.
