My experience this week has been much like my darling husband's (read below). This week was supposed to be a stand-off week, but it was not a true stand-off. I didn't log my eating and I only got to the gym once this week...for yoga on Monday night. Life just got in the way this week.
Unlike my darling husband, even though I had a good loss this week, I don't feel like celebrating. My goal in this stand-off week was not just weight loss. My real goal was regaining the feeling that I was back to my routine...that feeling of being completely in control. My deep-seeded fear is that if I do not get back to routine (fast!) I will begin to backslide, just like I have a million times before. I refuse to let that happen again.
So, the hope is that next week will be true stand-off. Meal planning, food and activity logging, and at least 4 visits to the gym. Wish me luck!
Until next week,
(a.k.a., Elle Tee Jay)
My update:
4/04/08: 186.2 pounds
4/11/08: 184.0 pounds (a loss of 2.2 pounds)
Total loss: 43.4 pounds
Next goal: 182.0 pounds
P.S. Is anyone else completely psyched for the finale of "The Biggest Loser" on Tuesday night? Ali is my new idol...

Doh, I guessed the weight-loss for the wrong person... silly me. Congrats.
Good job Laura! It was a hard week and you should be proud of yourself.

I am psyched about the biggest loser finale. Girl Power is all I can say. Good Job Laura! Keep it up.

You are a rockstar - just like Ali on Biggest Loser. Both of you show that hard work pays off.

I find it normally takes me just over a week to get fully back on plan after a break of any sort. Just stick to it!
