Well, here I am again after having been sick another week and having spent that week not on the treadmill. I have had a nasty sore throat and cough that finally made its way into me lungs this past week and breathing hard on the treadmill would have been impossible. I ran through the sore throat last week, but the hacking this week wasn't gonna happen.
However, I did make it a point to get as much sleep as I could to try and help the healing process. This mixed with the cold medicine I was taking resulting in some nights of pretty sound sleeping. This weekend, I could tell that it was starting to clear up and although my throat is still a little raw, I am definitely feeling better.
My best surprise happened when I stepped on the scale this morning. It turns out that all the sleep I got allowed my body to normalize and I have returned basically to my lowest point weight wise. I hopped on this morning and saw 260.3 lbs. That a drop of 2.9 pounds from last week!! I know right...who would have expected that. It just goes to show the value of sleep. It probably didn't hurt that I had salad for lunch two days last week as well.
This may have been one of my shortest posts, but to be honest the only thing I really have to share was my surprise weight loss for the week and the fact that I didn't work out last week. By the way, Mrs. Re-Dan-imation has been doing GREAT on her Couch 2 5K and hasn't missed a single workout!
Until next week...Food. Feet. Water. Repeat!!
