36 weeks in and I just now had my first gain.
After this past week, I was up 3.2 pounds and it really hit me hard. I’m trying to not let it get to me.
I checked my food logs and saw that I was over on sodium for the three days before weigh in, and under on my water intake. That would do it, for sure, but it’s still hard to see that number on the scale go up.
When I got home, Adam looked at me and said “Remember, don’t let a box of springs make you forget all the work you’ve done.” It’s what our old Weight Watchers leader used to say, and I needed the reminder. I’ve still lost 79.7 pounds, which is nothing to sneeze at!
And, I’d still rather look like this:
Than this:
And be healthier to boot, any day!
Keep on keepin’ on…

Enjoy your weekend!
