Don't you just hate it when the scale doesn't properly reflect the loss for the week? It's doing that for me, today, unfortunately!

My lowest weight this past week was 213.2, which is correct based on the calorie deficit I am estimated to be running. But thanks to a slowed metabolism and digestion during pregnancy, all the food I ate this weekend is lounging in my digestive tract, and so despite running a caloric deficit I weighed in this morning at 213.8.

Not much to say here - I still feel icky on and off with morning sickness, and am 7 weeks pregnant today. Only 33 more to go, it seems like AGES away (kind of like that first appointment still seems ages away, as well!). This friday will mark the beginning of the second funeral trip to California, and I will be gone until midday Tuesday. Hopefully my eating (and nausea!) will remain healthy and under control while I am gone, and my husband and kids survive without me. They did pretty well the last time, I'm confident my husband can hold it together without me overseeing him. He's talented like that!

My weekly prescription for myself remains unchanged - do some exercise (because once I do I enjoy it SO much!) and continue eating mostly on plan. I should have lost at least half a pound this week, so I am doing decently enough on food (Valentines and a Baby Shower notwithstanding!) and just need to continue on in that vein. Meats are still proving difficult for me to eat without gagging, but I am doing fine with most fruits and veggies. I am always tempted to carb load when I am not feeling well, so I hope I stay away from the white bread a little more this week and reach for some salad or a potato instead.

How did YOU all do this past week?
