• Notes and findings: 
  • We had a guest from Australia with us all week (so fun!) so I knew it would be a tough week both food and exercise-wise, but I was committed to keeping the pace and momentum going!
  • On Thursday, I weighed 141 pounds even and things were looking up!
  • On Thursday night, both my son and I were throwing up sick… Awful
  • My stomach never recovered fully until just this morning, so I skipped 2 days of exercise to rebound from being so sick
  • Sunday-Tuesday all included exercise so I’m back on the horse (until right now because my kid is refusing to nap (holy hell!))
  • Ending a light exercise week with a 0.4 pound loss feels good, and dropping body fat feels even better. I’ll take it!
  • I am on track to hit my goal weight of 140.8 pounds and have achieved my body fat goal (for now – it could change!)
  • I’ve got to get back into strength training – will start tomorrow morning at the Y!
