A gorgeous Sunday

Today was a crazy busy day, and it was soooo gorgeous outside. I started the day by going to a nearby park to meet one of my girlfriends for a nice hike, we took our dogs and had a blast, we managed to stay out a little over and hour, but I only counted an hour for Activity Points. After that, I went over to my parents, and my youngest brother and I went wall climbing. We managed to climb for about an hour and a half before we just couldn't even pull ourselves up anymore. So I counted 45 minutes for climbing (half the time) and the other 45mins for belaying (aka, holding the rope for my brother to climb). So I totally earned all of my 11 Activity Points today! Yes! I actually didn't even feel like eating any of them, but I know if I don't eat at least half that I will be STARVING tomorrow, so I did. When I just go out and have a nice walk, and get only like 2 points, it's not that big of a deal, but with 11 it is. I really wish they would allow you to eat them within 24 hours. No such luck.

As far as the crappy weigh in on Saturday/Sunday this week, I'm not letting it get me down, because I know it was just a TOM gain, plus, my clothes are like falling off me, it's awesome.

On the dating front, couple new prospects, I'll lay them out tomorrow :)

A Re-Weigh

So I re-weighed again this morning, and I got 152.0, twice in a row, good enough for me. It's a 1.6lb gain, but for me, that's a normal cycle gain, so no big deal. Just makes me feel better I got a constant weight. So onto the next week where I will root for a loss!

Weigh In Dilemma

Well I had a little bit of a weigh in dilemma this morning. I don't really know what to do about it.

A little bit of history. I've been weighing myself every Saturday morning, right when I get up, on a scale I newly purchasesd when I started WW in January.

Typically I step on once, get the weight, and then step on a second time just to "recheck" I've ALWAYS gotten the same weight. Today I stepped on the first time, got 150.4, which was a maintain, hey, I'm good with that. Then I rechecked 152.4. Again, 152.4, then again 154. Then again 153. So I'm at loss of which weight to use.

I've talked to a couple of the girls on the board and got varying opinions. I think I'm going to go with the first weight (because it's favorable) and then re-weigh in the morning to see what I get, TOM should be along today.

I'll just take the average of today and tomorrow's weigh in's and run with it. Sometimes I get so frustrated. I know I didn't overeat, so I know the gain is just a cycle, but it's a good way to throw me off the happy losing track. Oh Well!
