I forgot to photograph my weight this morning, but I suppose all is well that I didn't... it went the wrong way. I don't even remember the exact weight, but it was 117 something. Up a lb from last week! I've been trying to get my water in, but things haven't been moving along as they should, so that could contribute to the weight gain. In any event, this is the first week I have not met or exceeded my goal, so I'm not too discouraged. I will just keep at it and hope to see the scale move down again. I'm hoping to jump right past this plateau point, but it doesn't seem to be happening that way!!
Today is hard for calorie counting because we're eating dinner at a friend's house and I don't have a clue what we're having. It's sure to be delicious, but I'm afraid it might be pretty caloric as well, so I'll just have to try to eat moderately and make sure I get plenty of water in so I feel full. Most of what I've eaten today (with the exception of some yogurt for breakfast) is fruit and veggie, so I think I'm doing okay. But we'll see.
I went for a little walk/hike today with the mom and me group (this week it was Tracee and Beth who came with) so that gets a little exercise in. Mostly, though, I am still working on organizing and cleaning the house and that means spending most of my day standing, squatting, or moving around. So I think I'm doing fine on my 200 calories burned a day goal.

Sorry about being up a pound, but I certainly know how that goes. Plateaus are so challenging! Just keep doing what you know works, and eventually, it will! Glad you got a walk in!
Um, hello! Knock Knock! Is anyone home here? How goes it? Are you still discouraged? You look so good that I forget how easy it would be to feel overwhelmed by those few pounds that just don't want to come off! Keep at it! Let me know where you are!
