Oh Scale!

So last night I indeed got my awesome 2 miles in (REALLY far distance right? RIGHT?) and yes I played that game where I constantly stared at the distance I ran and tried to calculate based on my pace how much longer it would take me, apparently I do a lot of math while I run.

Then after my workout I had a smoothie! I would post pictures but I'm being lazy as of the moment and they will come tonight! Because, yes, I am having a smoothie for dinner again.

So after a day of working out and not really eating a whole lot (seriously, I wasn't hungry, in fact I often feel ill after a run) my phone said I was set to lose 7 1/4 ounces! Which, if ya'll do the math, is .45something lbs. Oh little calorie counting app! You set my expectations high! Saturday I had weighed in at 132, unfortunate but true, and then after a weekend of awesome calorie counting and even a walk on Sunday in my hungover state I weighed in yesterday at 131.6 which meant today should've been 131.2. But was it?! WAS IT?! NO!!! I was back up to 132.0!!! Blast!

Moral of my crazy-good story: Don't trust calorie counting apps, they aren't always right because your body does what it wants. Math-wise I should have lost weight, but realistically, I'm probably holding onto water from my run and because I drank a lot yesterday and also didn't go to the loo (don't judge, you probably do it too)

Am I ok with it? Marginally, I'm really pumped to get to 130.0 because a) I haven't been that weight in about a year and b) once I get to 130.0 I get to get a haircut which is much needed because my hair looks ridiculously awful. I am hoping to reach that milestone this weekend...LE SIGH. We shall see

Tonight's agenda = 30-45 minute cross training on the elliptical! Unless my blasted hip starts hurting and then it'll be the bike!!
