Today I am down to 186.6.
I took my first spill on the bike today. Bumped my head ever so slightly. I'm really glad that my helmet is supposed to come in today because the ground is so unforgiving. I was afraid something like this was
My shoulder took the brunt of the fall as I tucked in for the roll, so it's sore. This may have been my disorientation, but it felt like the ground came up to bump my head rather than my head hitting the ground. From my trajectory, I didn't think my head was going to come into play at all, so I was really surprised about that. It was the slightest bump like bumping your head on an overhead cabinet, not like being hit in the face with a bat.
Anyhow, I didn't know whether to lay there, and the thought felt silly as I assessed that nothing was injured. A few friction burns where my clothes protected me from my bike. Glad I wore my boots today too because the pedal hit me in my lower shin right where the laces are and that saved me from some pain.
I'm really surprised by this number on the scale. I've had beans for dinner this week. It's Operation Deflate :-) All the beans and water have made me feel heavy, so I was expecting to be several pounds heavier. This has made me really happy. AND, even though my stomach was stuck out from all my trapped gases, everyone has been complimenting me on my weight loss. That's motivation!
