Well, week 2 is in the books. Yesterday was good. I did the X Stretch and definitely felt better after doing so. Ate well on my airplane rides and am getting used to saying no when they offer food in First Class. Not too hard when they serve creamy pasta alfredo. Yuck!
I weighed myself this morning for my Week 2 check in and, disappointingly, saw 128 flash back on the scale. What does that mean? Who knows? Possibly that I haven't been eating enough, which is why I decided to up my calories from 1200-1300 to closer to 1600-1800 in the middle of last week. Possibly that I'm just building muscle which weighs more than fat. I know I feel better and I can tell I'm getting stronger. My stomach feels tighter and I can feel muscle (albeit under a layer of mush that I'd still like to get rid of). I am hanging in there and although I'm disappointed that the scale hasn't continued to go down, I will continue to follow the plan and see it through. I figure after my 30 day measurements, if I still don't see progress (at least in inches if not pounds) then I will consider tweaking my diet. For now, though, I'm off to Week 3.
