Well, I would love to report that I met my goal from last week of finally hitting 10% of my body weight lost. I can’t; instead I gained 5.4 pounds. Now, I didn’t eat badly enough for that to happen (though, obviously, there is some room for improvement.) My story has to do with asprin, PMS, and pretzels (a food I don’t like that much, but tend to overeat).

In addition, my struggles with… well, everything continue culminating with another medication change. Sigh.

I’d love to report I have shaken all this off and concentrated on my goals… but it’s not true. In fact, with three days to go until when I would normally weight in, I’m glad it’s a dark week and Wednesday is a holiday. That leaves 10 days to concentrate.

Easy goals

• Eating my prepared food
• Hit 11,000 all seven days, taking at least one break/lunch walk

Hard goals

• Tracking 4 of 7 days
• 1 Frappachino per day

I’m breaking my standby goals into two categories, because I feel fragile enough that doing all of them seems like a lot. I think the two easy should be okay, though it does take some dedication. Of the hard goals, I’m going to go for 2 days tracking and 1 Frappachino. That seems like enough.
