Five times on the exercise bike last week, healthy food all week long, and at least 5 cups of water a day. Finally!

Of course, hard work aside, I got on the scale on Monday after four days of pointedly not stepping on it and read the horrifying result of all this extra attentiveness: 292.2 pounds! The reason you are not seeing that reported above is because 286.4 pounds is what I weighed this morning. And I'm really proud of that, although slightly nervous since I got food poisoning from an evil Dunkin Donuts ham, egg and cheese English muffin Monday morning and so didn't eat at all on Monday and only minimally (3 healthy-but-small meals and 1 snack) yesterday. But I'm thinking positive! I believe in the 286.4 pounds. I feel like 286.4 pounds. Fingers crossed that tomorrow I'm not suddenly ballooning back. I have a bunch of healthy lunches and snacks to eat this week, too, and some fairly healthy and yummy dinners.

So maybe this reboot will stick. Maybe the 286.4 won't be a fluke. But if it is, I know I can do this if I persevere. Even if it means I have to do reboot #4654.

P.S. I adjusted the bike miles after looking at my spreadsheet - my estimates from the last few weeks were totally off. But now it's all good!
