Week Five

One more week down and it was a good one. I had a feeling it was going to be because I hop on the scale every once in a while throughout the week and I was getting some good readings, although my weight can fluctuate wildly by as much as five pounds from morning to evening. I have asked around and a few friends, both male and female, say they experience the same thing. Now to get to the good stuff. I weighed in at 229 this morning. That was more than I thought, I figured it would be around 231 to 232. My gym record shows I have lost inches too.

For the first time today my back was hurting really bad while working out. It was not the equipment though because I already had nerve pain when I walked in. I debated leaving, but I was already there so I fought through it. I actually ended up burning 340 calories so it was worth the pain.

I finally got my yogurt machine and made a batch last night. I tried it this morning and it was so delicious and perfect consistency. I used 2 percent, so today I am going to make a batch with skim milk to see how that comes out. I am also going to make a loaf of sourdough bread with my starter that finally started.
