I lost those four pounds I gained last week, plus one more. Which means...
...drumroll please...
I AM NOW UNDER 300 POUNDS!!! 299 is my new favorite number!
Actually, 290 is my new favorite number. Ten pound goals seem like a good idea, eh?

Setback, step forward
Last week I was visiting the family in Michigan, and had fully intended to work out every day. I didn't have a gym to go to, but I had equipment to use. Well, I worked out once in that week. And I ate too much. And I gained four pounds.
I got back with the trainer on Saturday, but our session was somewhat tame because of me having been essentially dormant for a week. And I had also strained my knee bowling, so we had to be careful there.
But last night - WOW - we stepped it up a BIG notch. We worked harder and faster and with heavier weights that I had ever used before. I was ready, having eaten well (lots of lean protein) and warmed up for a long time. It was amazing! And my trainer was thrilled. We both knew this day would come.
Don't ever quit. When you have a setback, it just might be a prelude to a huge advance.
