Just keep swimming

So I was again dreading coming to a meeting. This week I was upset because my car was in the shop and I wasn't sleeping well or getting a chance to exercise because I kept having to deal with getting to and from work. I only worked out twice. Once Monday and once Thursday. Not very motivational. I barely tracked so begrudgingly added what I was eating, it was extremely hard because of the feeling of guilt I had over not being healthy in my eating. Then of course I was at work eating girls scout cookies. Trefoils and Samoas are so delicious and such an indulgence. I needed to indulge. So I came to the meeting with dread in my heart. The results are a sign of just how little I understand food or how this program really works.

I got to my weigh-in and found I was down 3lbs!! How is that possible? I know you get extra points and stuff but I used them. I had steak 2 nights in a row. Alcohol. Some cream covered/smothered chicken and potatoes. It was all more then I thought was going to still help me keep my weight loss going. So when I saw such a significant weight drop after two weeks of less then a pound of weight loss, my confusion was complete. I think I need to look more closely at all of the foods I actually eat. I think I'm missing something but I'm going to keep going until I figure it out. And, if I never do but reach my goal then at least I'll know I was doing something right.

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming, what do we do? We swwwwiiiiiimmmmmm.
