Up 1.1 pounds: Biggest Loser Blog Edition
Well, I’m up 1.1 pounds. I’m sure I could rationalize it, but it wasn’t all excusable! Back on track today, immediately.
What happened? Quick analysis of the week:
* Didn’t do visual diary — am appreciating just how effective this is for me. Major reality check. I think I was just not as aware this week and I ate more plus worse choices. As I mentioned, I had an extremely stressful week, but actually am OK with how I handled things overall. Will start this again when I get back from my trip in two weeks.
* I exercised every day except yesterday and every day I felt worse. For six weeks I’ve been wheezing and having trouble breathing. Yesterday I went to doc and am quite ill, so am on steroids, antibiotics, rescue inhaler, you name it. Good news is I’m feeling better already! Glad I didn’t keep trying to tough it out.
* It was my birthday yesterday. What was nice was the focus was totally on the people I was with for lunch and dinner and cake, not the food.
So, overall, I’m OK with the week and the results. Could have been worse. Some things out of my control. Some things I need to do better this coming week.

sounds like you had a great week. The scale can be a confusing thing! Some days the sodium in what we ate the day before can add a couple pounds the next day which usually comes off again the following day
I can’t believe how easy it is to go up or down 5 lbs in a few days!
Glad you are feeling better
I’m sorry you’re sick! Steroids will make you gain weight temporarily, but it should come off when you’re done with them Get better!!
I MISSED YER B’DAY!!
happy belated!!
scr*w the scale and fret about all that (or not :)) when you are finally better.
Hey even though you gained, you are STILL #3 overall in this challenge! You were just given a freebie from all your hard work! You are doing a fantastic job and…
HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!

Thanks, Angie! The 1.1 is gone already — I think it was just salt and steroids. So look out when I get back from my trip!
