Past week's successes: Kept up with the 60 Min/Month Plank Challenge; started free weight strength training and bicycle trainer sessions, but didn’t do much of either.
This week's challenges: Ramp up bicycle trainer and free weight strength training sessions; keep up with Plank Challenge target; Focus more intensely on dietary control and increased exercise.

I had one bad day this past week, put on 2.5 lbs and then spent the rest of the week beating up on myself to take it back off . I worked long and hard to end up a measly half a pound down from last week. Probably my most important challenge from now on will be not allowing any more crash+burn days when I put on as much weight as I hope to take off in 2 or 3 weeks.

This week's successes: I went to the gym 4 times for over an hour each and worked out every body part imaginable. I also hit my water goal consistently every day which is excited about.
This week's challenges: Definitely overeating. I was still technically within my calorie goal after working out and I was only eating when I was hungry but I think I still overdid it just a bit.

I think part of the weight gain was from muscle because I was lifting a lot this week and really working my arm muscles, you can even see them in my arms now and not even just when I flex which I'm super happy about. But even if it wasn't. I'm still gonna keep going!
