13 MFing Inches!!

I don't have much commentary here, except that it's easy for me to allow myself to get really upset about the weight number going up by 2 pounds since last week.  Instead I'm focusing on the inches lost, which is substantial to me.  My clothes feel great, I feel great, and I am seeing noticeable changes in the mirror and in pictures.  I'll play with pictures later and post them when I have a few more minutes.

I have identified the things I need to improve that were lacking this week, or inhibiting weight loss:

- Not enough water
-Not enough slow-carbs (lentils beans), and therefore not enough calories consumed.  I ate REALLY light all week, and not enough most of the time
-On my period for most of this week
-Weigh-in and measurements taken 1 day early due to travel schedule.

So I have my plan for next week, which will be super easy to keep up with because I'm on a glorious 8-day STAYCATION where I will do nothing but play with recipes and workout and sleeeeeeep.  I looove sleeeeeep. :-)

Here are the numbers so far:
