thanksgiving weigh-in?

My regular weigh in day is Friday. That would be the day after Thanksgiving. I'm not stupid! There was no way that I was going to weigh in the day after Thanksgiving. That is unless I planned counting points that day. Which I was not. So I weighed myself on Thursday. I lost another .9 pounds. Yea!!!

I didn't eat an enormous amount of food on Thanksgiving. I did fill my plate though, and I had a piece of pie for dessert. Oh ... I did eat some spinach dip (mayonnaise and sour cream based) with sourdough bread later that evening. Anyway, when I woke up on Friday morning I felt bloated and fat. I weighed myself just to see, and I had gained 2 pounds! In one day! I had leftovers that day (that's my plate to the right, minus the turkey and green bean casserole i already ate), and I did have a healthy amount of that dip again with bread. On Saturday I weighed one pound more! Yikes.

So, this morning I am back down a little. I am actually .4 lbs above my first weigh in where I lost 2.4 lbs. My decision after all of this is to SKIP this week's weigh in. I'm good with that. Having lost 2.4 for two weeks is just about spot on.

Now for this coming week... I am going to exercise as soon as I finish writing this. :) I really need to lose at least one pound in order to get back on track. Totally within the realm of possibilities! I'm finished with leftovers, and that spinach dip and bread are gone. Haha. I'm back on plan, and I have five more days until the next weigh in. I can do it!
