Last two weeks - POP, masterfully controlling my calories, kicking my own butt at exercise - net 3 lb gain.

This weekend - Horrifically off plan, one day at calories over 3000, including alcohol, the other days a little above average with zero exercise...net 2 lb loss. And I already rehydrated, so its not that I don't have as much water in me. I'm not exactly complaining, but boy, it'd make it a lot easier to stick with my plan if the plan worked and going off plan didn't.

WTF.

S - NSA Ice Cream, strawberries

E - 60 min cardio, 60-70 min strength (probably split into two sessions due to meeting schedule).

Okay, June 1. I am on a 30 day no excuses plan. Jeans are tight, scale is creeping. Time to stop the madness. (the sad thing, it's not even really madness, no big splurges, no sleeves of girl scout cookies)
