WGOM Fitness: 13 September 2013, Improbable

1 week ago I weighed in at 207.  This morning that number was 202.  That seems improbable to me.  Perhaps I was at an innacurate high when I weighed in initially.  Perhaps I'm artificially low this morning for some reason.  Either way, I'm sure that I haven't truly lost 5 pounds on the little I did this past week.

I managed to do some substantial hiking, and got a few good workouts in that way, but nothing that was dedicated as a workout for itself. I consumed far too many liquid calories. I find myself up a few pounds (back around 205) after that stretch. Continue reading WGOM Fitness: July 15, 2013, Vacation
