6.14.2014 - Weigh In
I weighed in this morning but now can't remember the exact weight. It was either 266.8 or 268.6. Try again tomorrow I suppose and make sure to record it right away.
It looks like when I last weighed in back in May 2013 I was at 262.4, so today's weigh in isn't horrible. I'm not going to do everyday weigh-ins this time around. While that's worked in the past, I think weighing in once a month is sufficient to measure progress and I have a feeling that the everyday ones that I was doing before were wearing me down mentally and that's why I gave up last May and probably contributed to last year's summer depression.
The good news is that mentally, I'm feeling pretty committed to the way I'm eating right now. For two weeks, I've been eating very clean, with almost no cheats and I haven't really been tempted too much. The main "violation" of the Paleo creed has been hummus with my veggies. It's helped that I'm bringing my own lunch to work and staying away from the cafeteria and the temptations therein. I've been to the Taco truck twice, but that isn't such a big deal.
Today, I'm at the Allegro and I brought my lunch with me this time as well in my soft-backed cooler. I have salmon, fruit, nuts, and plantain chips - so totally Paleo.
I'm also feeling better eating this way. I don't feel as down mentally and I'm starting to feel good about myself again, which is important with the job search effort I'm kicking off.

6.13.2014 - Power Clean PR
Worked up to a #205 Power Clean but failed twice on #215.
Notes: I've been eating super-clean the last two weeks, but I haven't weighed myself. I'm split on if I should. On the one hand, I FEEL much better and I PR'd my Power Clean today. But I'm afraid if I weigh myself I'll just get discouraged. I guess it'll be a game time decision in the morning.
