This week's Lows.... finished High

I know that I haven't written in a while, but I don't want to bore you all with the same thing. Writing about how I look like a fish out of water, in the water, will get boring for most and this I realize. However, today this particular entry is a culmination of how the week went.
Let me start by saying the weigh-in this week was AWFUL! The scale wasn't very friendly and I am not happy about it. I am not making excuses, rather looking for answers. Had a little stress in the early part of the week and sleep hours seem to get shorter (for no good reason), I skipped a few workouts this week and didn't get in the pool... so I shouldn't have expected a good result on the scale this week.
In the past once I started seeing results I become complacent and happy with the result up to that point and the weight starts its climb back up. I am hoping that this training for a Triathlon will allow me to not to become so content with the result.....
(At this point, I took a break from this post so Kelli and I could take our niece shopping for her birthday.)......

While the ladies were looking for dresses I decided to try on some clothes. That being said, It has always been hard for me to find clothes that don't look like it came from the tent maker. Today, with my weigh-in still fresh in my mind, I tried on clothes... what ensued MADE MY WEEK. I bought a shirt that only had one 'X' on the tag instead of 'XX' and bought some shorts that had a '3' in the first number on the tag.... I have worn XL shirts before but they never really were all that comfortable and I couldn't tell you the last time my waist has been in the 30's. Needless to say I am excited... I believe this is what I needed to get me out of this weight loss rut.

Until Next Time....
