Even though it was only a pound, I had a good first week getting back to it. My diet was clean every day except for my free day, and even on my free day I stuck mostly to my diet and practiced moderation with the treats I allowed myself.
So why only a pound? I think it's because I hit the gym 5 days this week, for 90 minutes each time. I had a lot of muscle atrophy, and I can feel that I have more muscle today than I did last week. I'm hopeful that I actually lost more fat than that pound, but gained some muscle, and I'm looking forward to once my muscle is sufficiently rebuilt seeing that fat melt off on the scale.
