I seriously don’t know what’s going on here. It seems that ever since I decided I’d go back to losing weight the healthy way that my weight has been steadily going up.

Today’s another head scratcher as I’m up a full pound from yesterday. My food was fine yesterday. I was spot on calorie wise throughout the day. After work, I had an Italian sausage sandwich with a friend, but I didn’t eat my final night meal of the day because of that and I was at the gym for a particularly nasty (and painful, still being sore from weight training the day prior) cardio session of HIIT and rowing. I’m still hobbling around sore today, which is plenty of fun. Or not.

Clocking in a pound heavier is just frustrating and disappointing. At this point, I don’t know if I’ll hit my sub-300 goal by my birthday.Frankly, I am really tempted to go back to my caloric super-deficit diet-only weight loss method, because I was at least seeing results there. At the very least, doing it for the next four days until my birthday to see if I can make an all out sprint to the mythical land of the 200s. I just don’t know.

Granted, I’d probably throw a couple pounds back on in a rebound, and that’s not the best idea for the long time. However, it’d be nice to hit a goal for the first time in a few months instead of just pushing it back, like I’ve done with this 300 mark three separate times (January 1, January 31, and now March 24).

Today’s not a workout day, but I’m scheduled to go back to the gym tomorrow (Saturday) for my second round of weightlifting. If I post another gain, or even just stick at 307.8, tomorrow, I think I’m gonna go nuts.
