Weekly weigh-in

I'm late on the post again -- whoops. I did weigh-in on time though, so that's a plus! Here are the stats for this past week:

Exercise:

• daily dog walks for at least 30 minutes ----> YES
• 30 minutes of cardio at least 4x per week ---->  YES
• weight lifting 3x per week  ----> YES
• 10,000 steps per day ----> 5 out of 7 days
• track activity with Fitbit (linked to MyFitnessPal) ----> I missed a couple of days while out of town, but otherwise did well.

Diet:

• eliminate all processed foods ----> I did my best, even with being stuck in an airport one night.
• meals should consist of fruits, vegetables, grains, and meats ----> YES
• snacks should consist of fruits, vegetables, yogurt, nuts, and cheese ----> pretty good, but had some pretzels on a a flight
• dairy should be consumed in moderation daily ----> YES
• 8 glasses of water per day----> 5 out of 7 days
• track eating with MyFitnessPal ----> I seem to do so well when I'm at home, but I need to work on tracking things when traveling

Overall Weight Loss Stats:

Starting weight: 192.8
Current weight: 190.2
Total pounds lost: -2.6

I'm super excited to have lost the weight I thought I gained while on vacation last week! I need to not focus so much on the number, but rather how I'm feeling. I've really been committed to my weight lifting days and know that I'm most likely building some muscle, so that won't show on the scale as much.

I'm feeling really great about my progress so far and am looking forward to continuing on this path to a healthier, fitter me. So, let's go out and tackle another week! Off to walk the dogs in a few minutes, then hit up the gym. I've got this! ;)
