CTF Challenge 4w6d

Planning on doing R26 at some point today. I've got the kids by myself today and I have a big assignment due tomorrow. My MIL is taking the kids this afternoon to give me a chance to get it done. Tomorrow will be a big busy day with DH taking off to some photography and me taking the kids by myself to a kid's faire in San Francisco and a BBQ at a friend's house in South City. Fun and busy but not much of an opportunity to get schoolwork done.

So my measurements for this week are as follows.

weight: 227.2 (+.6)
body fat %: 30.2 (no change)
waist: 39 (-.8)
neck: 14.5 (no change)
chest: 47.75 (-.75)
arms: 25 (+.25)
thighs: 44.25 (+.25)
calves: 33 (-.25)

So, I broke my up and down pattern (weight down, BF% stable; next week weight up a hair and BF% down a lot). This week, my weight was up a hair and my BF% stayed stable. I think looking at the whys will help me jump over the hurdles next time.

Looking back at this week for the reasons why and where I didn't do what I was supposed to: I had two days away from the office. I didn't wing my regular meals, but on those days I did skip my snacks and did not have access to low sugar protein powder. I didn't have as much veggies either. No access to my psillium those days either.

I was horrible this week with water and psillium. I think I drank less than half a gallon of water this week and I didn't have my potassium bicarbonate for the last three days.

So, if I am looking for things to correct from here on out, I would include: make sure to have access to protein powder at home & work, drink my water with the added potassium bicarbonate and take my psilium everyday. I think I will try to concentrate on that.
