No excuses; just another reminder of what I (we) already kno

So, today was a weigh-in day, and I've lost 0.6 lbs over the last two weeks. I started to get a little disappointed, and then I thought about it more. Not excuses, just things I know - I WAY overate (and overdrank) yesterday. I didn't have enough water yesterday. I did not have the best two weeks of following a healthier lifestyle.

Still, I lost some weight. And the pants I'm wearing now have no muffin-top anymore, where as they did just weeks ago. My mearsurements are likely better (though I won't know for another two weeks). In these next two weeks, I will try harder to maintain a healthier way.

Thanks all for your posts - it's great to share the struggles and rewards!

    Hang in there! that's what's great about using MFP to track--you can look back and see what you did right or wrong, make corrections, and overcome!
