WK02 Jan 10: 194.4…..(Trend Weight: 192.1)….. Gaining a good bit during the reno process of my home. I have been without fridge and stove for the 10 day process. Grab & go food but things are improving on the homefront. Ready to kick it into high gear!

WK06 Feb 07: 195.4…..(Trend Weight: 195.5)….. I screwed up my last post weighing in on the 1st of Feb. Should have been today. Corrected now. February has only 28 days in order to make some progress so it is traditionally a tough month especially since it falls in winter too. Time to rise to the occasion!

Last week's successes: I logged everything I consumed. In addition to my daily walking, I went to the gym 5 days (1 day I even went twice).
This week's challenges: Incorporating strength training in with my cardio exercises and increasing my water intake again. I am also going to try to stay within my other macro targets more rather than focusing only on calorie intake.

• Wk 1 = -3.8
• Wk 2 = -2.4
• Wk 3 = -2.2
• Wk 4 = -0.7
  January = -9.1
• Wk 5 = -1.7
• Wk 6 = +0.2

I had my first week with a weight gain since I started back on my "get healthy" journey this year. I knew it would come eventually. I've been at the same weight plus or minus a pound for almost 3-weeks now. I have increased my water intake significantly so that may have something to do with it. I've been sticking to my calorie goals and exercising at least 5 days a week. I think I'm going to start paying more attention to my other macros and sodium intake and see if perhaps that will kick my metabolism back in gear.

In the meantime, I am not going to be discouraged! I've been here before and have given up when I was working hard and not seeing the scale move. I'm not going to do that this time. I know it is a process and a marathon.. not a sprint. This too shall pass. I just have to find the right combination of food and exercise to get me where I need to be. I hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
