Five Weeks In...

I am in shock!!
It's been "one of those weeks". Paige's Birthday was Saturday and I completely enjoyed a giant piece of cake AND some ice cream. (As well as eat KFC - the grilled kind, but I know it's almost as greasy.) Yesterday for the Super Bowl - I made some Cafe Rio knock offs for dinner/treats and Bailey made cookies - I had zero self control. (I don't know how Bev does it!! (: ) Joel kept telling me not to expect a lot of weight loss this week because we have been lifting pretty hard and while I "would lose fat, I would gain muscle mass", which apparently will help my metabolism and weight loss "in the future". (I really don't understand all of this... I only know simple math as far as weight loss is concerned... less calories in and more calories burned.)
So... I am down one exact pound!! Woo Hoo!! I am hoping I don't get comfortable with cheating and eating treats, expecting weight loss!!
Here's a shocker: I have been to the gym SIX DAYS PER WEEK (minus the first Saturday) for FIVE WEEKS! I am there at least an hour. I still dread walking in that door - every day. But, you know... it's what I have to do!!
Have a great week ladies!!
