Weight etc.

I weighed myself Saturday and was 289 again so I didn't update. I always lose 1-2 pounds from Friday to Saturday, and didn't thyis week, which is kind of amusing. This morning I had only gained 1 pound to 290. Normally it's 4-5 pounds of temporary weight gain over the weekend. This week Friday is my free day for the holiday, so I will do Friday weigh in one more time.

Next week I will take a week off as I am coming due. It is good to take a break every 3 months or so for a chance to heal up, maybe eat a little more to ensure the body stays out of starvation mode, and relax a little. Funny thing is it has always revolved around a trip or a visit before, and this time it's just random-seeming, and I really don't want to take a break. Still, it's something I should do.

1 Pound...

I weighed myself this morning, 289 pounds! A loss of only 1 pound week on week, but I think I'm going to start weighing myself Saturdays, since I now work out every Saturday and it's now the end of the week. Hopefully I'm carrying extra water following the very salty lunch yesterday. Anyhow, I can't expect them all to be great weeks, etc.
