Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

A reversal of fortune- Weigh In

Welp, the streak is broken and reversed, up a pound today.  :-(

I'm not surprised though because, not to get graphic but, my system has been off all week and I felt like this wasn't going to be a good one.  My water wasn't the greatest this week but I certainly don't think it was enough to do any damage or make me gain a pound and I was well within the same calorie range I've been in the past 2 weeks I had those great losses so who knows why the body retained.  (I was bloated as hell this morning)  The Mr also gained a pound and he was bloated too so we're trying to pinpoint what we ate yesterday that would've done that to us)  I'm not upset because as I said, sometimes you just feel like the planets aren't aligning a particular week.  So on to next week and also a bit of stress is off of me from Grandpa being through his surgery so maybe that factored in a bit too.  (I've given up trying to figure out the delicate balance of weight loss!  LOL)

On a positive note, the Mr passed his test he had to take this morning to renew a certification!  YAY!

Hope everyone has a great weekend and check out the store at Cafepress for the 20% off of a $50 order through tomorrow!

  1. Still wanted to congratulate you on your weight loss on the previous 2 weigh ins! That's still a fantastic loss and I'm sure that if you wouldn't be bloated, you'd have another loss this week. I can only speak for myself here, but when I bloat, my weight goes up by at least 2 pounds. I hope you can figure out what caused the bloating so you can avoid it in the future. One of the worst feelings ever, especially when my legs are bloated! I hope your bloat will be gone soon, my body tends to stay bloated for a minimum of 4 days, regardless of the healthy/low sodium foods I eat, the amount of water I drink, or how much I sweat during my workouts... SO annoying!

    I'm happy your grandpa made it through the surgery just fine, I wish him a speedy recovery! And also congrats to the Mr for passing his test! Great news!

    Have a great Sunday!
