Up 3.2 lbs

I don't want to weigh in today. :( I cheated again last night and had 4 beers with my boyfriend. We were going to the Cubs game and I was not going to drink but then the plans fell through and we had a little Cubs night of our own. We watched Silverlinings Playbook, HIMYM, then the Cubs game. It was a good night, but I really REALLY wish I held off on drinking.

This coming Sunday we are headed to Brookfield Zoo for his sisters Bday and I cant wait because that means I'll be walking around ALL DAY! Burning those calories. Ugh. I gotta not beat myself up about drinking. I still ate well and I still did my workouts, it just feels like all my hardwork is for nothing when I cheat. On the other hand, I just have to think about where I'd be if I cheated and didn't work hard... Although I still think I've gained a whole lot.

I might weigh in tonight, or I might hold off until Sunday. I don't want to get too discouraged by the scale.

**UPDATE

Okay I decided I owe it to my records to weigh in. Even though I hate the results, it'll be proof that I went through hell trying to get my weight under control. hah ugh. :/ Also, this makes zero sense...

• 163.0 lbs (up 3.2 lbs from last week)
• 31.1% fat (up .6%)
• 50.4% water
• 33.1% muscle  (down .3%)

The last time I was at 163 was April 17th.   My fat is 1% lower now, and my muscle is the exact same..? And water weight is 1.2% higher right now. WHAT IS THIS WEIGHT!

I just read some really interesting stuff, here. "If the body is not properly warmed up and cooled down, it can begin to produce lactic acid once the muscles become fatigued. This is then stored within the muscles. Lactic acid is what causes muscle soreness. It is also a sure sign that the body will begin cushioning the fatigued muscles by storing water in the areas that have been over-worked. The additional water helps to cushion and protect the affected muscle tissues until the body has made any necessary repairs and processed the lactic acid that has been stored" WHO KNEW? 

Walked 4 miles today at work. I'm unmotivated. So I'm at 21.06 miles so far.
