This might explain the difference in weighing scale readings yesterday.
The 151 lb was before exercising, the 153 was after.

Apparently weighing more for a few hours after exercising is pretty common - due to a lot of things, but mainly muscles retaining water to help repair themselves and grow after the workout.
So no more weighing after a 2 hour gym session for me - I'll weigh before instead.
I'll weigh in on Wednesday before my workout and take that as my reading. Hoping it will be around the 150 lb mark.
Today is also the first day of the 12 week abs challenge, so I'll be doing that tonight. Going to use the Jillian Michaels standing abs workout. I can do part one and three easily enough, part two makes be fall over - it's a problem of balance rather than muscle so I'm not to sure what to do about that. Maybe mix it up and put in a set from a a different workout.
