The weekend has ended. I sit here almost ready to head to work to start this new week! I had grand plans for the weekend! I was so going to smash the cycle that I've been in for months. I had a plan and I vowed to have some fun over the weekend also. So how did I do?
The weekend was a success with my eating. I had vowed to not snack and not indulge in non nutritious foods when I got hungry. On Saturday that meant that I had a banana. On Sunday that meant that I had a small bowl of cottage cheese. I also kept my calories in check and feel good about my food intake. Win!!!!
My next goal for the weeekend was to drink at least 64 ounces of water, my water consumption on the weekend is usually lacking. I nailed this one too! I got over 64 ounces both days...although I will admit that on Sunday I squeezed my win out by the skin of my teeth!!! Win!!
I walked for about 35 minutes on Saturday!
Cold walk around the perimeter of the field while Jason flew his drone.
We also took a short hike for 45 minutes on Sunday!!!!
Cold creek on our walk along a trail! No swimming today!
Exercise too! A bonus win!!!!
So my weight....did I smash the goal???? Cue the self deprecating laughter. Oh yeah, I smashed this goal! But not in a good way. The cycle has been that over the weekend my weight drops then oops back up on Monday or Tuesday. Well....my weight never dropped this past weekend! So while my goal was to let it drop and KEEP it low and this smash the cycle...I guess I can say that I did smash the pattern because the cycle was broken in that my weight never dropped!
So why did my weight never drop? Who knows. I know that my monthly water retention weight gain is upon me...I did have some more saltier/sodium laden foods. But I didn't break the bank in calories and I ate healthy, nutritious food! So who knows! I'm not giving up...I'm still staying the course!!!
