    07/09-189.0-(Trend Weight: 187.6)- The 4 day holiday weekend really bit me in the behind. Back on track now and actually making progress. Yes, this number was worse (higher) yesterday. I know the weight went on in leaps and bounds and will come off in pathetic little dribbles but at this point I truly appreciate any progress I can make. It feels good to be back on track. I just need to mix the exercise back in. It’s easy to be lazy on that front when you feel as out-of-breath and pudgy as I feel right now. I can actually feel every pound I put on at this point and I’m not real happy about that. I hope I can feel the improvement as I lose it back down.

    07/16-188.8-(Trend Weight: 189.0)- A very small drop after a very good day. I got in extra steps when I lost my cat outside. I didn’t know she was in my attached garage and when I came home and opened the door she got out. She went into the woods and I followed her in difficult terrain but eventually lost her. She is a tortie so she was well camoflauged. She did eventually come back to the yard after about 90 minutes where she continued to run from me but I finally got her near her catio and managed to get her into it so I could lock her in. Maybe I shouldn’t have given her that extra special treat last night after the ordeal. She didn’t really deserve it but I was so happy she came back home even if she strung me along in the yard for awhile. And why does food always have to be a reward? Hmmm.
