Not.

I'm not weighing in (officially) or posting stats today, since the vacation derailed my precious routine. I'm having a hard time getting back into the groove, and the aftermath of the long weekend is still making its way out of the system. While the weekend was more active than most, I still ate a lot of things I wouldn't normally, and didn't drink enough water. My hands are swollen, my eyes are dry. Other than walking the 5 blocks to the Alamo and back yesterday, there was no workout. I didn't pack any workout clothes or snacks today, either, so there's not much chance of a full recovery. I do have water with me, at least.

Between the lines, all that really says is, "the scale was unkind this morning, for the usual reasons."

Now I've got some of my routine back on track, with the rest going live tomorrow. I'm hoping to have the whole project back on schedule by midweek.

Reading around the fitness/weight-loss blogs, I'm seeing a lot of monthly loss reports. I think this is mostly because of the 5 in '05 challenges (5 lbs per month), which makes me remember that a few posts ago I set that goal for myself as well.

How did I do in March? Depends on where you draw the line. On the last weigh-in of March, I lost 2 lbs, from 185 to 183. Going till the first weigh-in of April, I gained a pound. Since I'm not counting today's weigh-in anyway, I'm going with the last March weigh-in. I wanted 5 lbs gone, I got 2. Not bad.

The last weigh-in in April is on the 26th...hopefully, I can be at 178 by then. Hell, maybe even 175, which would put me completely back on track for the 5-a-month-till-June plan. We shall see.

2lbs isn't bad @ all :)
