The Weigh-In Week 21


220.6!!!! That is what it said on the scale this morning! A crazy, ridiculous loss of 5 pounds!!!!

Sadly there may be an asterisks attached to this amazing drop. I seem to have picked up a stomach bug from my daughters this week. Some resulting physiological issues associated with said stomach bug may have contributed to this miraculous decline.

I guess I won’t know for sure until next weeks weigh-in.

If the number jumps back up the loss is tainted…but if it stays down…well woo-hoo for me.

There are a few other factors that may have contributed to this mornings scale sensation. I joined a gym yesterday, and the new workout was a killer. I have put together an all new routine that targets a whole lot of new muscles.

I also worked out earlier than usually, which probably shocked my system a little.

Plus last weeks weight gain was probably inflated based on a few days of bad eating vs. actual weight gain.

While I think the stomach bug may have contributed an extra pound or 2 to this week’s loss, I was probably on track to loss 2 to 3 pounds just from diet and exercise.

Which means I could very well be in sight of reaching my 220-pound goal next week!!! Once I reach 220 it is just another 6 pounds until I move out of the obese category and into to merely overweight!
