Day Twenty-Nine - Weigh in #4 - Setbacks

I was worried this might happen.  After my stomach virus a week and a half ago, I thought some of my lost weight might come back on once I started eating again.  Pair that with eating fast food all weekend, getting no sleep, and sitting in a car for 30 hours, and you have my setback.  I weighed this morning, and even though I kept my calories under my max, I still gained weight this week.  I am up three pounds to 346.4.  So, still way down for my overall, and with no foreseeable trips coming up, I should be able to lose that and hopefully a pound more this next week.  I'm committed to working out on the bike each night.

I guess in my mind I would lose weight each week until I'd lost all of my weight.  I thought maybe there would be a week that I may not lose any, but it just didn't even cross my radar that I might actually increase.  But it happens.  I can't change it today, but by next week I can.  Sometimes when you're on a journey you have to backtrack to get to your destination.  That's what this week was.  Backtracking.  Now I've made my turnaround and I am on course to lose my butter half.

I have had a good eating day today.  I actually ate too few calories unintentionally.  So I need to be careful of that.
