Finally...

Mother nature has been cruel. I have battled with a 3 pound gain all week. I knew it was water retention because I gained 1.5 pounds one day and another 1.5 the next and my fingers were swollen, but it didn't help my motivation any. In fact I was so frustrated by it I didn't want to record my Tuesday morning official weight - not that not recording it makes it any less true. So I have really done good this week and hit my points right on everyday. I have also kept up my 30 minute ride on the stationary bike every other day, and today the 3 pounds are gone. Hopefully all of this hard work will pay off next Tuesday when I step on the scale.
