For the last month, I've weighed about three pounds more than my "normal." I'm fluctuating a little ... up one or two, down the same. I just can't seem to shake them.
To be fair, since returning from Arizona the first week in January, I haven't been running every day. It's been closer to every other day. Or every three days. And when I do run, it's not as far as I was running before Christmas. This dang cold is hanging on and kicking my ass ... so some days the runs are really walks.
I have also worked in strength training on the non-cardio days. And I have been fairly loose with my eating. (In other words, I've replaced the hard pretzels with all the chocolate I can get my hands on. It's a little out of control.)
So the fact that I'm hovering at a steady weight, even if it's three pounds more than normal, is OK. I suspect that it could just be more weight. Or, I could have replaced some fat with some muscle.
But either way is OK. My pants fit just fine.
The number doesn't always tell you everything you need to know.
