Due to some vacation weight, and not staying back on track this past week, I am still up a pound more than when I started the challenge. Goods news is that I am down a pound from last week, so I’ll call it a win!

I wasn’t feeling too well for a portion of week 4. I honestly ran most of the week on autopilot. With that said, I’m happy that I still had a loss on the scale!

I was feeling a little discouraged about my lack of progress when writing this post. This is the important part. This is when I need to just keep going! 

Even though I am still not down to where I was before vacation, and even though I’m already 4 weeks into this challenge (without much to show for it as far as the scale is concerned), I need not give up. This is where the progress happens! 

Just keep going!
