One Weigh at a Time and Fitness Friday

It's that time of the week again! Weigh in Day! So my results for this week: I was 180.8 last week and this week.... 181. No loss this week.. a 0.2 gain so since the gain is so slight I guess it's really like no change this week! I know why I didn't get a loss this week. I veered off course and didn't journal what I was eating. I indulged a bit this week. Hopefully I can get myself back on track for next week.

How do you bounce back after a non-loss week?
