I was doing EXCELLENT on MFP for 3 weeks and then today....GAIN! It was only a pound and I was pretty much expecting it to happen. I was just slacking off in my eating habits this week. I still went to the gym 5 days and burns oogles of calories but i just ate them right back...and somedays more.

I dont think it helped that I went out Thurs, Fri, & Sat night with friends. I used to go out at least two nights a week but realized that it was wasting empty calories and I needed to focus more on myself & school. I chose healthier drinks (bacardi & diet...a few cosmos instead of beer) & didn't binge eat when I got home. I'm sure I would have gained back 3+ lbs if I did.

I was planning on getting back on my awesome grind today, but now that I saw the numbers on the scale mocking me...I think it's going to be a lot harder than I thought. Weight is just a number, right? If i still feel good about how my body is changing I should be happy, right? (Yeah, not doing a good job of convincing myself)
