Well, sigh. The scale did not behave on Saturday as I'd have liked, but in the interests of transparency it certainly behaved the way it ought. I massively overdid on baklava last week. Excuse? I have none. I like it, it was available, I rarely have it, so I dove in head-first over and over and over.
According to Weight Watchers I put on 1.2 pounds. According to my home scale I put on between 0.2 and 1.2 pounds, depending on when I weighed myself/ how much coffee I'd consumed. I also was wearing heavier clothes for my weigh-in this week... in part because I knew the weigh-in wouldn't be awesome so adding the weight of jeans rather than the lightweight knit skirt I usually wear wasn't going to make the difference between whether I lost or not. And in a way, I'm glad I had that opportunity because I am sick and tired of wearing that skirt to meetings anyway.
Still, even though I am pretty sure I know what caused my uptick last week, I'm tracking like a beast this week to ensure I don't have a similar outcome this next Saturday.
On the plus side with all of this, I did walk four out of five workdays last week, so yay me! I'm glad I did that. It doesn't have much impact at all on my calorie burn, but it's a good practice for me to get back into.
Oh, and this morning my stupid home scale said the dreaded "172.2" again. Because it hates me. Oh well. Onward!
