Thinning Thursday

So my prediction yesterday was sadly right. I was up 1.0 lbs this morning. I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I was disappointed by that, but at the same time I feel so bloated and ucky today that I don’t think it’s a real gain. Steve said it’s probably just water weight and will be gone in a day or two. I don’t want the number on the scale to be the deciding factor of how I feel about my life, but I have to say that increase this morning really put me in a funk that I’m just now getting over. I don’t think the lack of sleep last night and bloated feeling is helping either.

But today is a new day and this week will be better. I won’t be running 20k on Sunday so I won’t be a munchy monkey like I was this weekend. I have a few meals out to contend with but my date night with my husband and a trip to the zoo with the family are both things I can enjoy and not stress out about. The rest of the week will be good home cooking so I don’t have to worry about what I’ll be eating.

Okay enough rambling. The point is I gained, and it sucks but I’m going to try not to let it bum me out too much. I will go to boot camp tonight and I will run my 12k and 5k runs this week and then next week I’ll have a loss and this gain will be history.
