Um, I managed to gain half a pound this week. :| Awesome. I’m trying to convince myself that it’s muscle. My pants are definitely looser this week and I went down another belt loop but I suppose it is those things that had me at least expecting a loss this week, certainly not a gain.
As far is shredding is concerned I’ve done pretty well. I didn’t do it Saturday because I did spinning instead. I’m planning on doing spinning again today as well so no shred for me today either. I tried level 3 again yesterday and I modified some of it to minimize the jumping and guess what, my shins hurt this morning. I’m beginning to thing that level 3 is just not in the cards for me.
I’m altering my Weight Watchers plan starting today with a variation called the “Wendie Plan.” Basically you vary your points on a day to day basis having some low days and some high days and that’s supposed to keep your body guessing. I’m going to try it for a few weeks and see if it makes a difference in weight loss. Of course this week, any weight loss would be a difference. :|
I’m trying not to be discouraged but I can’t help it. I’m certainly not giving up but I think I might need to pout just a little bit.

Keep it up! I’m sure you’ll see a bigger loss on the scale this week. Just remember, more muscle burns more fat. And if you went down another belt loop, that’s amazing! A lot of trainers will tell you to only measure inches, not pounds, so just think how good you did this week in their book! ;)

Good luck, thinking of you! Levi & I will be in Athens for a couple days around April 4th. Maybe get the boys together?

[...] other news, I lost 3.3 pounds this week. Yay! I suppose I am shrinking after all. That means that I’ve met my first goal and am entitled to a reward of the non-food [...]
