Weight Loss Journey – Day 12

Today I took the day off work to have an extra long weekend.  I had a couple errands to run first thing in the morning, so I did still get my workout in – however, once I got home, a major sinus migraine hit me, so breakfast was pretty much just coffee this morning. Weigh…
